Meet Fiona Spence: Your Online Life Coach in Hobart and beyond
Years ago, I pushed myself so hard that I ended up in a wheelchair.
After three years of pain, treatments and dead ends, I realised that while I couldn’t control everything happening to my body, I could choose how I responded to it. I drew on the focus, discipline and resilience that had made me a martial arts champion and discovered what I call the Black Belt Mindset.
That experience changed how I see personal transformation.
Today, I’m a Master Mindset and Life Coach helping professionals, leaders and high performers in Hobart and across Australia create meaningful change, rebuild confidence and regain control of their lives.
I know what it feels like to be stuck, exhausted and questioning yourself. I also know that real change starts with changing the patterns that keep you there.
My breakthrough coaching approach helps you change the patterns that have been holding you back, so you can think differently, act decisively and create a life that feels truly yours.
What My Clients Say About Life Coaching With Me
Career and Life Coaching in Hobart: Are You Caught in One of These Three Traps?
Over the years, I’ve discovered that many people who come to me for life coaching have something in common.
They feel stuck.
You may be successful in some areas of your life, yet still feel as though something is holding you back.
Perhaps you recognise yourself in one of these three traps.
You Don’t Have to Stay Stuck
If you recognise yourself in one or more of these traps, take heart.
You can change the patterns that are keeping you stuck.
Through Career Success and Life Coaching, I help people every week to move beyond self-doubt, gain clarity and create meaningful change.
And you may not need months of coaching to do it.
Many of my clients achieve a breakthrough in just one or two sessions.
It all starts with a conversation.
If you’d like to explore what’s keeping you stuck and what you could do differently, I invite you to have a free chat with me.
We’ll look at where you are now, where you’d love to be, and what could help you get there.
“Top of her field!”
I have worked with many coaches and have found Fiona to be at the top of her field. Fiona has an extensive tool kit of tricks (all good!) to help you remove emotional blocks, get past the excuses and achieve goals. I highly recommend her.

“She Empowers You”
When I met Fiona, I genuinely loved what I do, but I was exhausted. I was not coping with the pressure I’d put on myself to be everything to everyone (but myself). She immediately helped shift my mindset into a more effective space. She empowers you with the knowledge and tools you need to conquer your ‘thing’, and deliver the greatest, long-term impact. Six months on and I am so proud of the version of ‘me’ that I have grown into. I am more effective overall — a better founder, creative, mentor, friend, daughter, and partner. I have a clearer vision of my future, and what exactly is driving the legacy that I want to build.

“Best coach I ever had!”
Fiona was the best coach, mentor, and trainer I ever had. She always encouraged me, helped me gain clarity and direction, and provided great strategies. She has a wealth of knowledge about business and life and I loved how she used stories to explain concepts. It really helped me to see things from different perspectives. If you want to be your best self Fiona will definitely help you achieve your goals.

“She always believes in you”
Fiona is one of the most inspiring people I have met. She makes you feel like she always believes in you and that you can achieve anything you set your heart and mind to. Fiona is very open, honest and approachable. She never judges you but instead helps you see things from new and different angles. I loved the tools and techniques she shared with me and if you haven’t already connected with Fiona I strongly recommend you do.

“Invaluable”
Fiona is a very talented mentor and presenter, and her help was invaluable not only to open my own business in Australia, but also to gain the confidence I needed at that moment to get started. Thanks, Fiona!

“A Genuine Game-Changer”
Working with Fiona Spence as my life coach was truly transformative. Her approach to Advanced Conversational Hypnosis differed from my expectations; instead of a traditional technique, we engaged in a conversation that unveiled the power of my subconscious mind and its role in achieving my goals. Fiona’s professional yet deeply empathetic manner created a safe and supportive environment, starting with small steps and celebrating each success. This experience has given me the confidence to navigate challenges and build momentum in my life. I’m grateful for Fiona’s expertise in Advanced Conversational Hypnosis – a genuine game-changer.
Basil Mabuza
“Non-judgemental”
I never expected to see results after just one session of coaching. But after a 50-minute session with Fiona I had made my mind up on a decision I had been debating for months. Within 24 hours I had taken action and was making progress towards my goals. I am now more self-aware than ever before, I have knowledge about myself that will help me find joy in all areas of life.
This is all thanks to the power of coaching and Fiona’s ability to pick up on what you are really saying, not the BS you are telling yourself. Her non-judgemental, action-orientated approach will leave you motivated and ready to make lasting change in your life.

“Crumbling under pressure”
I was struggling with the business and we had just switched from being a startup to scale up. Days had become endless, I was exhausted and not feeling like I was making an impact on the business.
With Fiona, we uncovered the issues that were holding me back and came up with appropriate solutions to them. She helped me see what makes me tick and to use that to better navigate the chaos of life. I sleep soundly at the end of each day, am content, can point to the value that energy has created and love watching the business grow. If anyone needs any help with their mindset, career or any part of their life, I would definitely recommend!

“I am finally at peace with who I am”
After our session had finished, I felt much more relaxed and confident than I had in years. A wonderful peaceful feeling of being deeply connected with myself. This created a calm yet strong feeling of a more relaxed and certain mindset for myself.
Since our session I have retained this strong belief in myself and I no longer feel the need to seek approval from others. A key moment for me was when a good friend commented it was great to see me looking so confident. I can definitely say as a result of the wonderful session and experience I had with Fiona I am finally at peace with who I am.

“Gained a New Lease of Life for my Business”
I have in last 4 weeks taken Fiona on as my mindset coach. I have always understood the importance of having your mindset steadfast and focused if you wish to be successful and create results. Yet, I kept falling back into the negative and self-limiting behaviours. Fiona is keeping me accountable, focused and steadfast on my goals and self-belief. I cannot believe how in just a few short weeks I have transformed. I am so pumped, excited and have found a new lease of life for my business. I can’t wait to see where I will be in another 4 weeks, 4 months, 4 years from now. Thank you Fiona

“Cuts through the BS!”
Fiona is also an inspiring and motivating speaker and thought leader who draws on her years of martial arts practice being able to share tools and tips to help you win in this game called life. Working with Fiona is a mixture of pleasure, learning, insight and even at times, tough love. Fiona is extremely approachable and empathetic yet manages to cut through the b***s*** to tell it like it is. Some life coaches are really good at making it look like they are listening, Fiona really does. She helps you break free of what it is that’s blocking you, and builds motivation to get you moving again. If you haven’t already met Fiona I highly recommend you pick up the phone and give her a call. She is really welcoming and easy to talk to.

“Knowledgeable, Positive and Motivational”
Fiona has been outstanding over the past few months! In February, I reached out to her because I was having trouble finding direction in my career and was feeling stuck in personal situations. Thanks to Fiona’s expertise and psychological background, I was able to decide on the right pathway and to also be able overcome personal challenges.
Fiona is extremely knowledgeable, positive and motivational, and I can’t thank her enough for her service.
Jamie Pear
“Great Leadership Coaching”
I commenced working with Fiona as part of our company leadership development program and was surprised by the simple practicality of her approach. Prior to working with Fiona, I was overwhelmed, not effectively managing the influx of demands. This, in turn, was affecting my general health and well-being in addition to productivity.
Fiona has helped me significantly and offered effective tools for clarifying priorities, scheduling & organisation, and People management. I’m now more intentional and outcome-focused. and find the load more manageable, irrespective of the continued demands. I have very much appreciated Fiona’s approach and would certainly recommend her coaching services.

“Get Impactful Results”
If you’re looking for a fresh take on business and leadership coaching with real results Fiona has you covered.
Her Manager as Coach Training and the coaching itself has been a pivot point for moving when I felt stuck. This style of coaching is the gift that keeps giving as you unlock more than you bargained for.
I recommend Fiona and this style of coaching for anyone who is ready to improve as a coach or just wants to experience impactful results in their life, career or business.
