Almost 20 years ago when I was forced to move back in with my parents due to the severity of my CFS / ME, it felt like my life was in ruins.
I had so many plans as a 22 year old, and suddenly I was so sick and couldn’t see any light at the end of the tunnel.
Back then I wish I had someone to talk to who really understood what I was going through.
But in the mid-90s there was no internet (for me), and people hardly knew anything about CFS / ME (yes, I know sometimes it feels like not much has changed!).
So now, after 21 years of living with CFS / ME, and 12 years of severe electrosensitivity, I can finally be that person for other people going through what I was back in the mid-90s.
Through my one-on-one coaching, I offer the experience and knowledge I have built up over 21 years of living with CFS /ME myself, while also bringing to it what I learned in my 4 years of Psychology (Honours), counselling training and experience with Louise-49Lifeline Australia, and coaching, training and development with Landmark Education.
My one-on-one coaching is not for everyone
I want to be up front about that (once you get to know me, you’ll know I’m very much a what-you-see-is-what-you-get type of person, so I like to be up front!)
My coaching is my premium service.
I have a limited number of spaces available in my week for one-on-one coaching, so it comes with a price tag that corresponds with that.
I won’t pretend it’s super cheap because it’s not.
But it’s not super expensive either (within the life coaching realm).
And, regardless, I do believe it’ll be worth every cent you pay if you decide to take it on.
(PS. I’m currently working on developing online group coaching programs for those on a lower budget. Please go to the bottom of this page for further information)
My Packages & Prices
Usually I don’t see coaches putting their prices clearly up on their websites.
I know there’s good reasons for that.
But part of my whole philosophy and brand is about being up-front and authentic, so here are my packages and prices.
“Living Powerfully With CFS” 6-week coaching package
Price – AUD$600 ($150/week).
A deposit of $200 is required to be paid up front, then the final payment needs to be made by the end of week 4. Pay it all up front and you can get the package for $550 (bargain!)
Any further sessions will be $80 each.
Includes:
6 x weekly 1 hour coaching sessions via phone (or Skype).
Email support – up to 2 emails per week
Weekly eWorkbook Modules
Copies of the following audio books on Audible (distributed every 2 weeks) –
The 3 Laws of Performance: Rewriting the Future of Your Organization & Your Life by Steve Zaffron & Dave Logan
The Mind-Body Code: How the Mind Wounds and Heals The Body by Dr Mario Martinez
Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life: Living The Wisdom of The Tao by Wayne Dyer
100 % Money Back Guarantee if you’re not happy with the service after 3 sessions LinkedU-Guarantee-Graphic
I believe as a coach, and as a client, anything less than 6 weekly sessions does not do justice to the service I provide, and you won’t get very much out of it if we don’t have at least 6 sessions. And I WANT you to get a lot out of it! 😀
My “Living An Awesome CFS Life” 10-weeks and beyond package
Price – AUD$800 ($80/week)
A deposit of $300 is required to be paid up front, then the final payment needs to be made by the end of week 7.
Further sessions – $80/session
Includes:
10 x weekly 1 hour coaching sessions
Email support – up to 3 emails per week
Weekly eWorkbook Modules
Copies of the following audio books on Audible (distributed every 2 weeks) –
The 3 Laws of Performance: Rewriting the Future of Your Organization & Your Life by Steve Zaffron & Dave Logan
The Mind-Body Code: How the Mind Wounds and Heals The Body by Dr Mario Martinez
Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life: Living The Wisdom of The Tao by Wayne Dyer

100 % Money Back Guarantee if you’re not happy with the service after 3 sessions
In my opinion 10 coaching sessions in a row is the most effective package.
You may wish to continue sessions after that, which is totally fine, and if you choose to do that, I give you the bonus of a reduced price per session for the following 12 months – whether you continue to consult with me weekly or just once a month when you need it.
Casual/For-Whatever-Reason-I-Won’t-Commit-But-I’d-Like-A-Session-Or-Two Package
Anyone wanting less than 6 sessions – a one-off coaching session or a number of casual sessions – Cost: AUD$150/session.
The reason it costs more?
I’ve told you above that a minimum of 6 sessions is what I believe you need to commit to in order to get results and move forward in a noticable way in managing your CFS /ME.
Hence, I charge more for casual sessions.
It also takes longer to break the ice and cut through to the real issues when the sessions are just one-offs or casual. This doesn’t serve you well at all – and I WANT to serve you well!
Also, committing to 6 sessions tells me you’re serious about working with me and about taking action toward improving your life with CFS.
I get that some people only have $150 to spend. I TOTALLY get that. And I’ll give you my absolute best 60 minutes I can. But I’m just telling you up-front that you won’t get as much value from the coaching as you would with the 6-10 sessions.
It’s not about me making more money because, ultimately, I don’t. It’s about serving you in the best way I possibly can.
Contact Me For Your Free Initial Consultation
Now you know everything up-front, if you are seriously interested in having one-on-one CFS coaching with me, I offer a free initial consultation of 30-60 minutes in order for us to both get to know each other a little, and so that we can find out if we are a good fit for each other.
Then YOU get to decide the next level you want to take it to and sign up for a coaching package.
Please email me at Louise@GetUpAndGoGuru.com and we can organise our initial consultation via phone or Skype (if it’s via phone I will call you – landline or mobile throughout the world using Uberconference).
Group Coaching Online – COMING SOONish!
I’m working on developing group coaching programs via the internet so that I can cater for people who are on pensions and other low-incomes.
So if the one-on-one coaching is out of your price range right now, but you’d be interested in group coaching in the future, please send me an email and I’ll put you on my waiting list and notify you as soon as my group coaching programs are running.
I want to help as many people with CFS / ME as I possibly can.
That’s why I write this blog and provide other content such as free videos and (the coming) podcasts for free.
But I also need to bring in some income to fund all the costs I have – AND to get to my goal of financial independence.
So, really, there’s something on this site for everyone.
If one-on-one CFS / ME / FM coaching is what you want, and it’s within your budget, then let’s get started!
Keep Smiling
