Testimonials
Please note that some are from my Life Coaching clients and others from NDIS participants.
I feel very comfortable with Linette. Linette is a happy person and very helpful. She has lots of games and programs that help me learn different things.
We do educational work through lessons and games and work on areas I want to improve on. If I have any questions, Linette always answers them or helps me find the answers.
I have learned my times tables and know the trick for the 9 times tables using my fingers!
Linette makes the sessions fun and I don't feel like I am doing a lesson. It is never boring, it is always enjoyable and we have smiles on our faces.
In our sessions, we do problem-solving, money, times tables, budgeting, cooking, calculator skills on my iPhone and lots more.
We also learn about life and our emotions. We work on being happy and not stressed. Linette has a special program about stress levels and how we cope with stress. This has taught me how to deal with stress and anxiety and who are safe people to talk to.
I always look forward to my sessions with Linette as learning is always more enjoyable when it is fun.

Before my coaching with Linette Hagen, I felt STUCK, confused and unsure of my way forward. Over six months Linette’s light, gentle and caring approach challenged me, kept me grounded and allowed me to focus on my flow of life. I especially loved the way Linette supported and encouraged me to find clarity and confidence through a very challenging and lonely time.
I always looked forward to and found our sessions tremendously helpful with guidance and decision making. I felt HEARD, SUPPORTED AND UNDERSTOOD. Linette is an exceptional, enthusiastic coach whom I have been truly blessed to have. Thank you Linette.

During a difficult time at work with a lot of tension, conflict and stress I went to Linette for coaching support. I found her manner to be positive, non-judgemental and able to have me see my situation from a clearer perspective. Through coaching and the use of Neuro-Linguistic Programming I became confident in dealing with my situation and was able to resolve the conflict. This has left me empowered and confident in being pro-active in my work situation. I would recommend Linette Hagen to anyone who wants to improve their life and lifestyle.

I have known Linette for approx 3 years. I met Linette through the gym that I work at and I have to say she is an absolute pleasure to know. I have experienced a rather difficult time in my life and I confided in Linette in how to manage my situation. Not only had she had a similar life experience, but she is always upbeat and positive. Just the sort of person you need to surround yourself with when adversity grips you. She managed to help me cope day to day with little pieces of excellent advice and many different strategies to help me move on and remain strong. I am a devout fan of Linette’s and would highly recommend her to anyone requiring life coaching or assistance in their day to day lives. Thank you lovely Linette xox

When I decided to start ‘this coaching thing’, I was at the point in my life where I knew some changes had to be made. I was so unhappy with myself. I had basically cut myself off from pretty much all social interactions. Being around people intimidated me. I had no backbone and I was my extended family’s doormat. I had few friends, no job, no options, no opportunities and only a smidge of hope – that maybe…just maybe ‘this coaching thing’ would help me become a ‘new’ person, and then I would be happy with myself and get on with life.
What coaching with Linette helped me do, was find myself under all the crap, barriers, excuses, masks and fears that were piled on top. I was so loaded down with emotional crap, hurts, issues that I was barely able to function on a day to day basis.
Working with Linette has enabled me to open doors to opportunities that I never thought would be possible. Going from no opportunities to being able to write for famous international internet marketers, being able to choose the work opportunities I want, rather than taking whatever was available.
Not only did my working opportunities improve a hundredfold, but my personal life also improved a thousandfold. I was able to stop being the doormat, and able to weed the leeches and people who just take, take, take out of my life. I was able to work out MY values for MY life, set them in place and keep them by setting boundaries with family and friends. With Linette, I worked through the barriers, the excuses, my issues and faced my fears in a way that was safe and empowering.
I now have a backbone, and an inner strength I wasn’t even aware of and I’m proud of myself. I have strength and wisdom to make great choices and was able to put the past to rest so that it no longer affects how I live today. Linette didn’t do the work for me, but she was so integral in helping me find my path and do it myself. Trying to accomplish these successes without Linette would’ve been a very long complicated and unproductive way to do it.
If you want to improve any area of your life I would whole-heartedly recommend Linette’s coaching. She is a diamond, and completely brilliant at what she does, she helps you shine and find the best you have within and the best life has to offer. I will be forever grateful for our time together coaching – ‘this coaching thing’ was the best decision I ever made.
Thanks Linette – you are totally awesome K

Linette and I clicked the moment we met. I discovered quickly that whatever I wanted to do, Linette was up for it! As I am unable to drive anymore, Linette takes me shopping, whether it is to the supermarket or shopping for things I don't need but love!
We have been everywhere from the movies to a beach day at Hastings Point. If I am feeling down or flat I know that as soon as I am with Linette my mood will be lifted.
Lastly, Linette started as my support worker/carer and now is my friend.
