"I would like to commend CAPACITY LIFE COACHING to you as a valuable investment in which to achieve your life’s goals.
Penny has enabled me to strategically target the important areas of my life to gain maximum success and happiness. Through a combination of identifying my personal goals and applying her professional expertise, she has been able to empower me to dictate my future with purpose and determination.
I have been impressed by her skills in leading each session and tailoring the individual sessions to obtain my personal successes – for the short and medium terms. I recommend unreservedly, her package to you."
Gordon Veerasawmy, Professional Speaker, Rowville
“Penny helped me see through the clutter and determine what was most important to me. The identification of my purpose and my values also made it easier to work out what career I would be most suited to. I know that the processes undertaken with Penny and the skills learnt will help me overcome future obstacles and realise my goals.”
Adam Frantataro, Intrepid traveller, Albert Park

Sharon C., Mt Waverley
“Thank you so much for all you have done to assist me on my journey of healing. I have learned so much about myself…Feel so good that I have come such a long way. I recognise where I am at and want to conquer it all immediately which is not the way. It all takes time - I wish it did not! I have lots to work on thanks to you: … a very capable & talented lady.”
Janey, Accountant,Wantirna
Penny's coaching has helped me enormously - it has helped me to focus
and clarify my goals - both short and long term. She has helped me
realise how important it is to put in some effort and to really think
through certain issues to gain results. I appreciate Penny's
persistence and purposefulness (“tenacity”) - she is a wonderful life coach and I recommend her highly.
Isabelle D., Glen Huntly
"Working with Penny has left me inspired, motivated and complete. I am now able to work through the problems that enter my life on my own with confidence. I am now living up to my potential and will continue to do so all thanks to Penny."
Lez, Neuroscientist, Wheelers Hill
Penny has helped me set goals, see the overall picture, and I have clarified where I am going so I can move forward. I feel a load off my shoulders. The maze is clearing in my head and I can see a light at the end of the tunnel. I have a great future.
Helen A.,Warranwood
I was struggling at the time – I was probably a bit sceptical about a lot of things, but my life coaching sessions opened my mind. I have gained so much knowledge about how I can be a positive force and achieve my goals. As I look back these months later, I am astonished at how much I have learned about myself, to my enormous advantage. Life Coaching with Penny as my guide means that I have let go of a lot of fears.
Will, Glen Waverley
Some comments on Penny's facilitation and M.C role:
Penny, I REALLY enjoyed your speech. I could go on and list endless reasons why, but it is not necessary when one word will do... MASTERFUL!
You really are a very accomplished speaker with a commanding presence and an engaging style - a joy to watch, and I mean that most sincerely.
Bill Farman,
President & CEO , ‘Vantage Innovation’,
South Melbourne
"You are an extremely inspirational person - I wouldn't be the first person to say that. If they're not saying it, they're thinking it. You were a superb facilitator. "
Jan, Montrose, Vic.
"First off I though you did a fantastic job facilitating the session. Not sure what you are having for "brekie" but its working. ... just brilliant."
Bill Arthur, Mooroolbark, Vic.
“You were given a big task as MC and you did an awesome job. Power to you! You were sensational; I admired your assertiveness and your approach during the night. You certainly knew how to get their attention. You were magnificent.”
Marjory, Mt Waverley, Vic.
It may be belated but I have to say again how much I enjoyed your speech at the contest. Every word was well chosen, full of emotion and connectedness, vocal variety and excellent gestures. - But did we see you naked? (metaphorically speaking of course). I applaud your talent.
