Tim Chan - Mindset Mentor and Life Coach at Intra-Mind

Personalised coaching sessions are individually tailored to each person’s needs and circumstances. Your first session with Tim is complimentary. In this session he will get to know you and work with you to map out a plan to then set the steps into place to help you get there in your personal program.

Coaching and mentoring is quite different to the traditional counselling and psychology fields that you may already be familiar with. Coaching works with your mindset and your belief patterns to help you move towards where you want to be in life. Just like you would hire a personal trainer at the gym to help with your physical fitness, a life coach works with you to strengthen your mental fitness.

Tim’s plethora of life experiences including being a coal miner, concreter, professional soccer player and working in a hospital have led him down the path of coaching and mentoring. From a young age, Tim realised the significance of having a healthy mindset and the impact that can have on the outcomes we achieve in life. Being your typical Aussie bloke, Tim is very approachable, easy to talk to and has plenty of strategies to offer. He believes that practice doesn’t make perfect, it makes better, as there is always room for improvements no matter how big or small.

Working with clients individually in his office in Yeppoon as well as across the world as far away as Scotland, he also helps businesses to train their teams to have a more positive mindset. The language that we use daily and how we talk to ourselves and about ourselves has the ability to make or break us. He shares a story of teaching a real estate agent about the benefits of selling a home rather than a house and how a small tweak in the language used can create a massive change.

Tim is also an avid support of small businesses and will be commencing a monthly coffee get together for the small business community to come together and get to know each other, to share their stories and to build a support network. Working in small business can be a challenge and having the right support network around you can make or break you and your business.

Supporting charities and other good causes is something very close to Tim’s heart and he is keen to work with local organisations to help out wherever he can. He has established a support program for businesses where staff can come to him to talk to a coach instead of a traditional counsellor in a confidential setting to off-load or seeking assistance. He also provides an information pack to businesses to help educate their staff on specific events throughout the year including Movember, Mental Health Week and Breast Cancer Awareness month to name a few.

To book in your complimentary session with Tim, you can contact him via phone on 0488149850 or head over to his Facebook page to find out more.

Tim will also join our team of columnists commencing next month sharing tips and insights on mindset, so be sure to keep an eye out for that!
