Welcome to private coaching with Kylie.
You are about to embark on a journey to meet yourself more deeply, and connect with what brings you the most joy and fulfilment. Over the course of our work together you will deepen your emotional intelligence, fine tune your alignment to what really matters so you can live the life you love.
Here’s some of the usual results clients experience as a result of this work:
- more lightness, ease and flow.
- deeper sense of peace, even through turbulence.
- increasing centred power & magnetism.
- able to make decisions with more clarity and less reactivity.
- more present with loved ones and team.
- deeper intimacy and truth with self and others.
- more productive and less distracted.
- more sensitivity to nuance, and resilience to challenges.
- greater emotional intelligence and insight.
- deeper trust in life and self.
Most clients feel a shift like this from the very first session, and it compounds over time as we release conditioning and past emotional baggage that is stored in your unconscious.
This process will yield powerful results, and may be a different kind of “work” than you are familiar with.
This is the inner work of courageously facing the parts of yourself that you have hidden from; emotions, un-resourceful patterns you learned somewhere along your life. Together we will meet and face things that feel tender or painful, to soften and release them with presence and care. I will be there to guide and support you.
Change is not always totally comfortable, but you can be assured that any changes that happen as a result of this work are bringing you into closer alignment with your Soul’s Purpose and Mission.
For this process to work well we will agree to a standard of our relationship. Please read through these and ensure you feel comfortable with it all. Sign if it’s all ok, or feel free to ask if there’s anything you need clarified.
What I need from you.
- Showing up. Please arrive to our sessions on time, sober, ready for the inner work.
- Being honest. Please inform me if you are on any mind-altering medication. Be honest about what you are feeling. There is no truth that you need to hide from me or this process, the more you can be honest about the things you feel you need to hide in the outside world, the greater the peace you will feel.
- Being willing to change. The purpose of coaching is creating change, so you need to be willing to step outside your comfort zone when it is required.
- Timely communication. Sometimes life throws a curveball or an emergency to deal with at short notice. Please let me know asap if you are unable to make an appointment for any reason, and I will too. 24 hours notice to cancel or reschedule please.
- Professional relationship. Remembering that this is a professional care dynamic, while enjoying the natural, friendly and caring relationship that will develop between us.
What I will bring.
These agreements run both ways. As well as the above, this is what you can count on from me.
- Full presence. I arrive to our sessions clear, grounded and prepared. No half attention, no residue from the session before yours. For the time we are together you have all of my attention, care and presence.
- The truth, kindly. I will tell you what I see, including the things that are uncomfortable to hear. I will not flatter you, manage you, or soften something important to keep the relationship pleasant. If I notice a pattern running you, I will name it compassionately so we can support you to transform it.
- Skill, not opinion or chat. I bring twenty years of training and practice to your process, and I keep training. I will use the correct coaching process for what is actually in front of us. Where something sits outside my scope, I will say so and point you to the right practitioner.
- Holding the whole arc. I track your process and support the growth of your consciousness between our sessions, not just inside them. I hold the through-line of where you said you were going, and I will bring you back to it when life pulls you sideways.
- Your pace, your consent. I will not push you past what your system can integrate. We go to the edge, and we go there together, and you always have the right to say not today. Depth is not the same as force.
- I will not do your work for you. I am not here to rescue you, fix you, or hand you my answers. Your most profound insights will come out of your own mouth. My job is to hold the space and ask the questions that allow you to unfold your awareness into clarity.
- A clean container. Your sessions start on time and finish on time. I will manage the time. You can relax. Your material stays confidential, on the terms set out below. I keep records securely. I bring my own work to my own supervisor so that what happens in our sessions stays about you.
- My own ongoing work. I am in process too. I do my own inner work, receive my own coaching and supervision, and keep my instrument clean. I will never ask you to go somewhere I have not been willing to go myself.
- Between sessions support. While we are working together you can reach me by Voxer, message or email. I will respond within 24 hours. For anything urgent or time sensitive, please text me. If you are in crisis or unsafe, contact Lifeline on 13 11 14 or 000. Coaching is not crisis support.
- A clear ending. When our work together completes, we complete it consciously. You will leave with a clear read on what changed, what is still live, and what your own practice looks like from here. No drift, no quiet fade. If we both choose to continue a friendship after the coaching process there will be a gap first, to ensure the clean ending of this dynamic before beginning another.
I’m thrilled to be able to support you on this journey and that you have said yes to awakening your mind, heart, soul and levelling up how you serve the world and are served in return.
with gratitude,
Kylie & the Coaching Team

Mental Health Care
The client agrees to inform the coach if they are under the care of any health care professional such as a therapist, psychologist, counsellor, psychiatrist or related professional during the course of our coaching relationship.
If the client is receiving mental health related medical treatment or medication, the duty of care remains with the prescribing medical professional always (aka your doctor or psychiatrist.) The client must provide written permission from the medical practitioner stating their permission for the client to attend coaching sessions as a complimentary form of assistance. Client agrees to disclose to the Coach if they are receiving any prescribed drugs to assist with their mental health.
Possible Contraindications
These coaching and healing processes are deeply transformative, and can be emotionally challenging and confronting at times. It is consciousness expanding, and as such it is not suitable for people who are under-resourced or have recently experienced physical or emotional trauma. As a client it is your responsibility to disclose if any of the following apply to you so we can discover if this is the most appropriate method for you at this time.
By signing the form below the client is legally confirming that none of the below apply at this time. If any of the below do apply, please do not sign. Reply to me instead and we will discuss whether coaching is a fit for you right now.
- Diagnosed Severe PTSD or complex trauma that is actively destabilising.
- Current psychotic episodes or diagnosis of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder (especially in manic phases), or untreated severe depression.
- Heavy psychiatric medication use (multiple medications).
- Recent major physical trauma, surgeries, or injuries that affect physical or neurological stability.

Coaching Relationship
Throughout the working relationship, the coach will engage in direct and personal conversations. The coach will offer a program of transformation sessions, using specific questioning techniques and transformational processes that may include Neuro-Linguistic Programming, The Spiral, Kinesiology Muscle Testing, Emotional Clearing, Heart Alchemy Process, Emotional Freedom Technique, Meta-Coaching, Hypnotherapy, Auric Clearing, Karmic Clearing & Morphogenetic DNA Activation, and Energy/ Quantum Healing, or Intuitive Guidance as the client requires.
The client is responsible for the specific outcome details for bespoke programming. Your coach will question you to help you to get clarity on this. Please come to your sessions with a note or two about what you would like to focus on. Be sure to also acknowledge and celebrate what is working and how you are growing instead of only focussing on solving problems. The client can count on the coach to offer processes for creating insight, releasing emotional blocks, insightful observations, honest feedback, and teaching psychological ideas as it is relevant to the process.
Responsibility For Results
The client enters into the coaching relationship knowing that they are 100% responsible for creating the desired life results. If the client believes the coaching is not working as desired, the client will communicate that idea frankly and together coach and client can take action to return the power to the coaching relationship.
Also, the client agrees to notify the coach if the coach ever communicates in a way that is upsetting or detrimental to the trust of the coaching relationship. Honesty and trust are critical for the effectiveness of the process. Coaching is a special relationship and the conversations that are held in the coaching space are sacred, and will likely challenge the client in a way that they may never have been challenged before. This kind of coaching facilitates massive growth and the discomfort of stretching the comfort zone is always balanced with support and care.
Professional Boundaries & Transference
Coaching is a powerful and special relationship. You and your coach will very likely have a sense of closeness, from the personal nature of the topics and emotions. Please be aware your coach is caring for you in a strictly professional role. Professional conduct must be upheld at all times. On rare occasions ‘transference’ can occur; which means that the feeling of being emotionally cared for, and listened to so deeply by a professional coach can be misunderstood or inferred to mean something other than professional care.
Transference is when your coach reminds you of someone else important in your life, and the feelings for that other person become directed at the coach.
If unconscious feelings that the client has for their mother, teacher, sister, wife, girlfriend or lover become projected onto the coach then it can interfere with the process, unless it is consciously addressed.
This is a well documented phenomenon that is possible in caring professions, and is perfectly ok to discuss and work with. It is not unusual, and making this explicit and conscious is part of the healing of the original wound. If you are ever experiencing specific intense emotions directed at your coach that seem unusual please let them know, so it can be addressed.
Relationship Commitments
Coach and client agree to:
- Abide by the mutually agreed time frames to complete all coaching task commitments as agreed.
- Ensure we keep coaching appointments.
- Honour our commitments to each other.
- Develop a coaching relationship that is fully open, honest, and trusting.
- Complete the coaching process even if it gets challenging or uncomfortable.
EQ Evolution Spiral Process
The Spiral Process is a series of 7 specific guided sessions that takes place within the 3-6 month program. This process follows the power centres of the body from the base to the crown and is a sequence that once begun, must be completed within 6 months. The client agrees to follow the process and complete these sessions in sequence within the coaching program.
Coaching not Qualification
Please be aware that this 1:1 coaching agreement and your experience of receiving coaching does not qualify you to coach others with these methods. This is a personal growth experience, not a professional practitioner training or qualification. If you would like to learn how to do these processes for yourself, or with your own team, family or clients please ask us about our Practitioner Certification Trainings instead.
Constructive Feedback & Coach Supervision
If in the unlikely event that the Client is unhappy with the service, value, or any behaviour of the Coach, the Client agrees to discuss this feedback with the Coach directly, or if this is not convenient to contact the Director of My Mind Coach; Kylie Ryan personally on kylie@mymindcoach.com.au to resolve these issues as soon as they arise.
My Mind Coach agrees to do everything reasonably possible to provide an excellent coaching service that every client is thrilled with. Sometimes a Coach & Client are not the right fit, and if this is the case, My Mind Coach will do our best to find a suitable replacement coach or Supervise the Coach to improve our service. All MMC coaches have supervision to ensure their coaching is of the highest possible standard.
Refunds
There are no refunds on Private Coaching Packages once they have been completed. Sessions in credit may be deferred to a better time or gifted to another person. If you wish to test out your relationship with the coach before signing up to a private coaching package, please book a single breakthrough session first. Once we begin a process we both commit fully to completing the process. The payment is a part of the sacred fair exchange that we commit to. Nothing in this agreement limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.
Testimonials & Referrals
My Mind Coach often provides results that leave our Clients highly satisfied and happy to testify to their results and refer others who they feel would benefit from our services. We are always open to referrals from our happy clients.
Declaration
I understand that I am working with a coach from the coaching team of My Mind Coach for professional Coaching at the agreed fee. Professional Coaching is distinctly different from counselling, psychotherapy or psychoanalysis and does not deal with the diagnosis or treatment of emotional problems. Since professional coaching does not constitute medical consultation or treatment, health insurance does not apply. My Mind Coach welcomes you as a client and we look forward to assisting you with your goals.
