For the past few hundred years (perhaps thousands -Â be we have no proof) human societies have assumed and expected the world to be first and foremost a physical place. This has grown into beliefs that all physical things originate from physical things. Yet, this is not a truth. All physical manifestations come from Intention and Attention. This is proven in the new science which the societies of the world are not quite ready to accept as true and real, and yet it is.Â
If you intend to be PHYSICALLY FIT, and you put your attention on that more often than not, and don't let it go. One would think that physcial fitness will occur. And yes for the majority of people it can easily work this way. Physical problems do require physical solutions. What about the 10-20% of people it doesn't work for?
This 20% is who I work with. When your Personal Trainer's information and instructions are heard and understood but yet just cannot be integrated and followed. When the PT's enthusiasm and support works in the moment, but never after the session.
You may not understand what is STRONGER in your mind than you Trainer or Coach, but I do.Â
You have a story, which is not necessarily about your Physical fitness goals, or about your diet and lifestyle goals, yet it is interpreted to have a connection. I find the connections.
A person chooses coaching when they're focused on creating change and building a brighter future. Coaching helps establish a clear direction, set actionable goals, and navigate the steps toward achieving them.
On the other hand, a person chooses counselling when they're grappling with unresolved issues from the past that hold them back from feeling free and happy in the present. Counselling delves into these past experiences to uncover and process the emotions tied to them.
However, each approach has its limitations:
• Coaching often overlooks the past, which can leave the root cause of current challenges unaddressed.
• Counselling, while therapeutic, can lack a focused path toward specific goals, as the conversation may meander based on what the client recalls.
Story Changers Coaching & Counselling bridges this gap by blending the strengths of both approaches. It begins like coaching, with a focus on setting future goals, but includes an additional step: uncovering and addressing the underlying difficulties that make progress toward these goals challenging. This step mirrors counselling, yet remains tightly focused on the problem affecting goal achievement.
The result? Greater clarity and capability in the specific area being addressed. Once emotional alignment is achieved, goals become much easier to set and accomplish.
With Story Changers Coaching & Counselling, you no longer need to choose one or the other—you can have the best of both worlds. Start resolving challenges and achieving your goals today!
Story Change is the cornerstone of good health, both mentally and physically. When you’re misaligned, you may find yourself making decisions that don’t truly align with your deepest desires. Many people struggle unnecessarily because of this misalignment.
The Two Types of Coaching I Offer
1 Story Changer for Low to Zero Carb Coaching & Counseling
This transformative approach is the most impactful work I do and in this case I am focussed on the challenge of regaining physical and mental health via the Low to Zero Carb spectrum.. It involves a deep investigation into your past, structured as an interview for the client and a meticulous review of energy shifts for the coach. By identifying the root cause of your challenges, we work toward realignment. The results are profound, offering practical and lasting healing in its truest sense. The coach is highly educated in all aspects of the Low to Zero Carb spectrum and therefore able to understand the details explained by the client.
2. General Story Changer Coaching & Counselling
This transformative approach is the most impactful work I do. It involves a deep investigation into your past, structured as an interview for the client and a meticulous review of energy shifts for the coach. By identifying the root cause of your challenges, we work toward realignment. The results are profound, offering practical and lasting healing in its truest sense.
As an expert in Story Change, I work with you to uncover the root of your challenges. Sessions are conducted much like an interview, where I carefully analyse your answers—focusing on the words you choose, the emotions you express, and the energy behind your communication. Together, we identify the misalignment and work toward re-aligning your decisions with your true goals.
I’m passionate about my work and deeply committed to your success. Each session is designed to achieve results within a two-hour timeframe. Feel free to reach out with any questions via email.  You can also explore examples on my YouTube channel.

I am a very independent person. I have never asked for help with any challenge. But when I experienced real difficulty sticking to a new health plan, I decided to take a chance with a health coach and I chose JoannaRuth Goldman. What a revelation! She acknowledged the things I knew and was experiencing, but she saw it all from a slightly different perspective and that made all the difference. She gave me new points of reference for my feelings and the reactions I have set up for those feelings. Now I have a new plan to follow for achieving my health goals that fit with my lifestyle. Thank you Joanna!
I wanted to find out why I just could not say "No" to certain things. It has been a problem for a very long time in my life. It was ruining my life more and more. I thought I would just do the one session to see if what JoannaRuth says she does is true. I was expecting I would need more sessions to get this problem sorted.
I'm so pleased. I have only needed the one session. I feel much more confident in myself. I'm easily saying No now, and its exactly what I wanted. I don't have any pressure now, when I want to say No, I just say no.
I can't thank JoannaRuth enough. She is really good at what she does. It's true too, she really does love her job.
I was really unsure at first. It was hard to make a choice of who to work with. I'm so glad I chose you. You just feel so calm. Even on zoom I feel calmer after the session with you. Thanks for being so supportive and non-judgemental of me. I have more work to do to understand my anxiety, but I've you on my side. I'll get there. Thanks again.
This $65 session is a 30 minute session for getting to know ME. It is an 'Interview Session".
Entering into Story Changers Coaching & Counselling is a large commitment for many.Â
This is an offer for those who want to ask me questions for the purpose of making a decision.
This a long session.
The session is long because it is based on Indigenous Psychological practices. They say "It ends when the mis-alignemnt is re-aligned". This is a little harder to do in our modern world, so I opt for a 2hr session which can run a little long if needed.
You and I must block out three hours of our day, and not have anything distracting us, like an appointment afterwards.
It costs $250 if you wish to pre-pay the session.
It costs $500 if you wish to pay afterwards.
This is a psychological strategy also understood by indigenous people's. They say "You will receive the quality of what you give. So give your best chicken." It's all about putting your best psychological foot forward.
Feel free to ask me about this further in your 30 minute interview session.
