A LITTLE ABOUT ME.
I am an energetic and commercially minded HR & Safety professional, passionate about developing and delivering innovative solutions to enable better business outcomes. Employee engagement and wellness is always at the forefront of my mind and is a key focus in my strategic approach in business optimization.
Building exceptional partnerships within the business is key to everything I do. This approach, along with a down to earth style, has been a recipe for success when it comes to coaching leaders through business challenges. I have been involved in a number of company acquisitions and mergers therefor change management is something that comes second nature to me.
With broad consulting experience and multifaceted expertise, I deliver executional excellence while keeping people at the heart of everything I do. I believe that compliance is a function in many businesses that once broken down and simplified and of course understood can be a very easy part of the business.
I work across a number of businesses including Construction, Civil Recruitment Services, Hairdressing and Beauty amongst many more.

My Story
I have worked in several organisations across a range of different industries. I started out my career in Australia after giving up my trade in hairdressing to pursue a role in the corporate world. The one thing in common with all of my roles is working with people and this is something I love and cherish.
I started out with a labour hire company, moved into white collar recruitment and then naturally moved to an internal role in a company, where my role expanded into a general manager role for People and Compliance. Working with smaller companies is something that I know I can add value to given my experience and background, as this is exactly what I did before I left my last role (13 years later may I add). We grew from a very small company to a large international business, and that was through a number of small company acquisitions. I was exposed to lots of smaller companies and there I learned that not every company will have a full-time resource dedicated to the role and that was a gap, that I recognised smaller businesses needed extra support and guidance.
I have had two kids and with that my priorities have changed for us and our family. I really want to have a balance and structure that supports my family. I decided to study while on maternity leave with my little daughter and did a coaching course to compliment my people services background.
I had time to think and pause in this time. That is when the little nudges and whispers started to happen and with that my company idea was born.
I worked with a coach, developed a plan, wrote my goals and visions, and decided to back myself. If I worked my way up in a role and proved myself, why couldn't I do that for myself and my family. I am so excited to be able to help others now and start on my new chapter as a small business owner.
I have partnered with experts in the field to ensure that I have a team of support to bounce ideas off and keep up with market and industry trends.
In order to discuss your needs please give me a call or email and we can discuss the right support for you.
I have a number of different packages I can offer you and upon an initial discussion we can discuss the correct plan and support for you and your company.

Christina developed our Integrated Management System manual, policies and procedures in an efficient and organised manner tailored to fit the company’s goals in line with the Standards and Legislative requirements. Her previous industry experience ensured we received a high-quality service.

Sorcha Hunter - Hunter Labour Hire
Christina developed employment contracts for my staff, refining what exactly needs to be in a contract according to the modern award associated with us. Christina has a great understanding about people. Being a busy small business owner, it is great to be able to partner with someone who is there to answer my questions and assist in something that isn't my forte leaving me to do the things I am great at.
Mags Dargan - Wilde & Co Hair
We wanted to take our company to the next level by having high quality systems implemented, We engaged Christina to work on this and we are very satisfied with the results. Christina not alone created systems she also took great interest in educating the staff across these systems. She is extremely knowledgeable within this field yet has the ability to deliver and explain in a manner each employee could relate to. Christina was very responsive to any questions I had.
With systems ever evolving we continue to use Christina to do internal audits within our company to ensure we are up to standard. She has been a vital asset to our growth and development, and it is very reassuring to deal with someone who both is confident & efficient. We would highly recommend Christina for any Human Resource or Compliance assistance.

She completely took the stress out of it for me which is invaluable to me and my time. She completed everything promptly and without needing much input from me, I would highly recommend Christina's HR services.
Jacinta Casey - Advanced Rejuvenation.
Welcome to looking at your future through a different lense.
My name is Tina, and I am a mindset and purpose coach for mums who are going through the shift in identity and looking to explore their new path to find their purpose and even their new calling.
I know what it is like to sit in a place of uncertainty and doubt. Are you in a place wishing that your return to work after maternity leave was an exciting time but instead you are filled with a dread of walking back in that door knowing the person that left isn't the one returning. You might even have returned and deeply wishing for a change.
Imagine this, You have all the freedom to spend time with your little ones and you have spoken up for what you want and need. How free would that make you feel, and how much better would you be as a mother, an employee, a wife.
Or even you are embracing your new career with open arms and having really pinch me moments?
Or it could be going from a company where you have served your time perhaps to a really aligned path in a career that you just really love showing up for?
I am a mother of two and a shift happened when I became a mother. My priorities changed as much as a tried to initially deny it the need to be around my young family grew strong, being an expat with no family support I knew it was time to align my life with my values. That is when I started my BYCA Life Coaching certification. I knew I wanted to create a life I love and that would support me and no stress me.
I recently resigned from my role as General Manager People and Compliance after thirteen years of service, So believe me I know the fear of taking that leap of leaving a secure job, with all the benefits but deep down I could feel I was making the right choice, but also I have worked with people for a very long time and I can see the effects of staying in something that doesn't serve you anymore. I have always worked with people with my extensive HR background and newfound coaching skills I cannot wait to help you discover your purpose and align your career to your values and needs.

What People are Saying
Working with Christina has been life changing for me. When we first meet I was struggling with boundaries and balance. I wanted to get the most out of my everyday life.
Christina helped me narrow down my feelings and issues around my boundaries and supported me in a way I hadn’t experienced before.
Without her support and guidance I know I wouldn’t have made the changes I needed to make. The actions we worked on were added into my everyday life so the outcome and results had a lasting impact.
I loved my sessions with Christina and I looked forward to them every fortnight. She was honest, open, caring and extremely kind.
Working with Christina has been one of the best things I’ve done for myself and I highly recommend her coaching series to anyone thinking of working with a life coach
Lauren Landsdown - Small Business Owner & Business Mentor .
After the first session it felt good to have a structure or framework with simple clear goals and actions to attempt to follow.
My husband, a close girlfriend and my mother have noticed I have been trying to change my behaviors. One girlfriend congratulated me for all the work she sees I have been doing. Setting boundaries is a skill I have learned from this process to free my time for myself and my family. The process was simple and effective and something you can use again and again. I like that you can just keep adding to it. I learnt that the goals and set tasks for the week are trial and error and at times may need adjusting, adjust and try another way over quitting. My sessions have provided me with skills to use well into my future.
