You’ve dimmed your light for too long
It’s time to Take Up Space and Radiate Your Worth!
You’ve been giving so much of yourself to everyone.
You’ve spent years adapting, over-giving and striving or excellence, making sure everything runs smoothly.
You put in extra hours, anticipate the needs of your team, and deliver amazing results in the face of intense challenges, and you're exhausted. But no matter how much you put in, it never feels like enough.
The non-stop push to deliver despite unrealistic expectations and relentless demands have left you drained; both professionally and personally.
You’re exhausted, disconnected, and craving the freedom to be your true self.
Something has to give. But with so many competing priorities, you just don’t know where to start.
Luminous Executive is here to help! Get the expert leadership support you need to reclaim your energy.

“Jo is amazing!
She asked poignant questions, noticed where my beliefs may be limiting me and helped me lighten my load, by talking it through.
She is an intuitive, exceptional coach - I highly recommend working with her.”
You were once so full of energy and ideas.
You’d show up early and take on extra projects. You put your heart and soul into leading your team.
But you just don’t have that energy or drive anymore.
You’ve tried to get back to feeling full of life again... you’ve done the reading, gone to therapy, journalled, but you still feel like you’re stuck in chaos.
You know you need to find your voice again.
But someone is always talking over you, correcting you, cutting you off, or worse, repeating what you say and taking credit for your ideas. You’re trying not to let it get to you, but the soul-cripplingly frustration of feeling ignored, closed out, and overlooked is becoming too much.
You’re not broken. You don’t need to change who you are.
You need to reclaim the parts of you that have been lost in the noise of unhealthy dynamics, self-doubt, and years of over-giving without receiving.
Get the leadership support you need to reclaim your voice, reclaim who you are as a leader. Reach out today and book in a free 15-minute clarity call.

“Working with Jo was life changing. I finally understand why I kept repeating the same patterns in relationships.
Now, I’m making choices from a place of self-worth, not self-sacrifice.”
It’s time to stop waiting for permission to be you.
That’s where Luminous Executive comes in.
Luminous Executive is a 12-week executive coaching program specifically tailored for queer, heart-centred leaders who are ready to move beyond burnout and survival mode.
Using the magic of embodied awareness, deep insight, and aligned action, we’ll explore what lights you up on the insight and figure out how you can break free from conditioned patterns that are draining your soul.
Rediscover the vibrancy of being unshakably you:
Shake off self-doubt, let go of over-explaining and overworking.
Step out from behind the internalised limiting beliefs that keep you from being your bright and sparkly self.
Rediscover what energises you, move freely, take up space, and embrace what you love without hesitation.
Trust in yourself again, listen to your needs, know your desires.
Read your own energy so that you can say YES! to opportunities that light you up and no to what no longer serves you.
Speak your truth with confidence.
Set your boundaries and stand firm in your worth.
Create the space for joy, developing new ways to bring lightness, play, creativity into your daily life.
Feel empowered to bounce into each day with energy, joy and a renewed sense of purpose
Lead with authenticity, finally feel seen, grounded in your self-worth, and step into your vibrant, thriving life.
Let’s explore how you can start showing up as the vibrant, sparkly soul you already are.
I know the exhaustion you’re feeling. Because I’ve lived it.
Growing up through childhood trauma, surviving an extremely unhealthy 25-year relationship, and navigating insanely toxic workplaces, without realising it, I became an ‘expert’ in silencing my truth and sucking it up to get on with life.
I developed survival instincts that shaped how I showed up in the world as an adult. Silence became people pleasing, shrinking became over giving, and before I even realised it, I was running on empty, convinced that if I just tried harder, things would finally change.
But no matter what I gave, it was never enough. It just left me depleted, exhausted, feeling like a shell of myself.
When I finally learned to stop dimming my light and began embracing the full energy of who I am, everything shifted.
I’m no longer exhausting myself in an endless cycle of doing, striving, and proving, I now feel so much more grounded in the power of simply being me. I feel alive. Whole. Free.
I don't have to keep pushing or sacrificing anymore, I have the freedom of being able to show up, being fiercely and unapologetically me.
It’s time to reclaim your energy, and your worth – without guilt or apology.
The real shift had to start within me
It took me decades to realise those survival skills were erasing me. I needed to untangle myself from entrenched patterns of self-protection and break down the internal walls that were holding me back.
If I wanted to feel seen, heard, appreciated as a leader, I needed to start to see, hear and appreciate myself. And it was going to take more than CBT-style conversations to reframe my thoughts.
I had to get out of my head… and that’s when everything shifted. That’s when I stopped surviving and started actually THRIVING.
Through deep self-work I learned to see, hear and experience myself in a new way.
Learning to reclaim my sense of self, I started to anchor into an unshakable knowing that I am worthy purely because of who I am.
And in that process, a surprising truth came to light: I’m queer.
In my mid-40s, after decades of trying to fit into other peoples ‘cis-het’ expectations of who I should be, I finally found the courage and conviction to embrace my queer quirky neurodivergent Aboriginal feminine self and embrace every part of me that society had tried to erase.
These days, I live my life anchored in a fierce and vibrant belief in who I am, in my own self-worth.
The truth of this hit home recently, when I was camping solo at the beach.
A solo camping trip in nature was something I used to dream of doing but didn’t give myself permission because of commitments to my kids, family, and work.
Yet, there I was, feeling the sand between my toes and the freedom of not having anyone to negotiate with or compromise about how I spent my time. Just me and my desire to switch off from the world, to feel the warmth of the sun on my face, to listen to the sound of the waves crashing against the shore, reconnect with what it feels like to be fully me.
And the best part of that is knowing there are some of the most amazing souls waiting for me to come home, who truly see and love all of me.
Living unapologetically me doesn’t mean life doesn’t try to pull me off course, because it does. But now, it doesn’t take me with it. I know who I am. I know what I deserve. And I don’t abandon myself anymore.
And you don’t have to either.
You don’t have to spend another decade feeling like you’re fighting an invisible force holding you back. There’s another way, and I’m here to guide you to it.
Who am I?
I’m Jo-a healer, a guide, an Inner Spark Awakener.
I help queer and quirky heart-centred leaders break free from toxic conditioning and rediscover their inner spark.
With over 20 years of experience in change leadership, business transformation, and personal development, I have helped thousands of people create profound shifts in their personal and professional lives.
My passion is creating spaces where curious, bold, and unconventional minds can reconnect with their self-worth, embrace their true selves, and reclaim their voices… because the world needs us, exactly as we are.
I help others learn in months what took me years to realise.

“I absolutely love the magical warm aunty energy you bring to so many people’s lives. The way you care for your community and welcome people into your kinship with the purest love and care.
It’s so special! You truly embody the way our Ancestors, Aunties and Uncles all upheld the kinship of our Mob.”
Why I do this work
It’s not just important to do this work, it's essential. Now more than ever we need heart-centred queer and quirky leaders to shine and make a difference in the world.
We need to break the cycles of self-doubt and unfulfilled potential that only lead us to burnout. Luminous isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level change; it’s a deep, intentional approach that is designed to break unhealthy patterns, heal from past conditioning, and rebuild a life that truly reflects who we are, who you are.
Because masking and shrinking isn’t sustainable
Many high-achieving, deeply caring leaders spend years adapting to fit expectations… whether in relationships, workplaces, or society.
But suppressing your true self is exhausting.
It leads to burnout, disconnection, and the constant feeling that something is missing.
Luminous helps you drop the mask and step into a life where you feel free to be fully yourself.
Because the cost of staying stuck is too high
Operating in survival mode, over-giving, ignoring your needs, downplaying your worth, it takes a toll.
Chronic stress and exhaustion; Feeling invisible, unheard, undervalued; Stagnation in your career, relationships, or creativity; Losing the spark that once made life exciting… These things don’t disappear without intentional change.
Luminous helps you break free and rewrite the way you show up in the world.
Because you deserve to feel fully alive
We are meant to thrive, explore, and experience joy.
You deserve to feel confident expressing yourself without fear of judgment; to trust your instincts and take action that aligns with your needs and desires. You deserve to experience genuine, fulfilling connections in your relationships.
Luminous helps bring you back to a place where you can have the energy and passion to pursue what truly matters to you
I do this work because we all deserve to belong simply by being who we are!
So many of us with intersecting marginalised identities live with the weight of being silenced, assimilated, erased… and being forced to contort ourselves just to survive is soul-crushing.
When we reclaim our voices, our worth, and our wholeness, we don’t just change our own lives, we shift the spaces we move through. Families, organisations, and communities heal when everyone is seen, valued, and given a seat at the table.
This work is a ripple effect that creates a more just, nourished, and liberated world for us all.
Shed what’s been holding you back.
Step into your queer and quirky brilliance.
Bounce forward into a life where you feel fully alive, confident, and free.
Rekindle the spark of light that is YOU!
