In this episode we talk to Wayne Donnelly,NLP and Life Coach who is on a mission to help people to navigate to be the best version of themselves to create a life they love. After a 28 year career in financial services, the GFC arrived and in January 2009 his future was freed up for new opportunities.
At the time Wayne was running a financial planning firm. He had enough of corporate life and sought an outside perspective from a life coach. When he looked back over his life, he found that what stood out for him was an event from 2005. He had been injured in a surf boat accident and his surgeon said to him “If we don’t operate first thing in the morning, you will be a paraplegic”. Fortunately, that surgeon did a marvelous job. Unfortunately, in the subsequent months he fell into a deep post surgical depression. Focusing on all the negatives, he used pain killers and alcohol to change how he felt. Then, made an attempt to end his life.
He was referred to a specialist in behavioural change who over several sessions turned him around from wanting to end life to embracing life.
This was his inspiration. He had found his life purpose. “To help others the way I had been helped”.
He retrained in Clinical Hypnotherapy and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP). For the last 14 years He has been doing just that. Helping clients remove past traumas, overcoming depression, breaking addictions and moving them all towards becoming better versions of themselves.
