Testimonials from past clients

“Stacey has become a trusted coach and mentor to many of Toitū’s senior leaders. Her individually tailored approach, insightful and pragmatic style, combined with her passion and commitment to helping to develop thriving individuals, ensures that she is a valuable and trusted advisor for our most important asset - our people. I highly recommend Stacey to any business with a strong commitment to developing thriving, engaged, authentic and reflective leaders.”

“I have worked with Stacey guiding a Not-for-Profit organisation for over 5 years. I can safely say that without her expertise, drive and wise counsel, the organisation would not have made such great strides with growing awareness, community involvement, and finding a solid financial footing. We have confidence in our future and where we are heading thanks to Stacey who was responsible for keeping everyone on track. If I was to have my own business, I would absolutely want her running it.”

“Valuable advise and coaching which has allowed me to rethink my approaches to both clinical and non clinical work. Helpfully in Victoria this service can be funded through CME.”

“Stacey led the engagement with her colleague and they quickly became a key enabler of our executive leadership team in transforming the culture. Stacey wore multiple hats facilitating large group workshops, coaching the Exec team and mentoring the broader Kinetic team. Stacey's passion and dedication ensured that everybody she worked with raved about the impact she had on them both personally and professionally. She's an amazing lady who brings her whole self to work every day and it was a real privilege to work with her. I can't wait to do it again.”

"I've had the privilege of working closely with Stacey Davidson for over 8 years. Her guidance and support have been invaluable for my growth as a medical leader and project collaborator.

As a coach and mentor, Stacey has been a steady source of inspiration, wisdom and clarity. She provides critical honest feedback that helps me identify blindspots I would not have otherwise seen. Stacey is empathetic and helps me prioritise what is important in my life which is very grounding for me.

Beyond coaching, Stacey has been a trusted collaborator on numerous projects, seamlessly integrating her strategic and operational expertise to drive momentum.

I also had the privilege of witnessing Stacey lead the growth of the nonprofit organisation I co-founded. Her insight, vision, leadership and operational expertise shaped the organisation into what it is today.

I wholeheartedly endorse Stacey as a coach, advisor and organisational leader. Her impact on my life and career has been significant enabling me to amplify my success whilst driving inner contentment."

“Stacey has been a powerhouse of organisation, cheer and font of knowledge in promoting, maintaining and progressing EMUGS. With a group of enthusiastic doctors on joining, she has herded the cats and generated a group across Australia and New Zealand with a clear focus and purpose in spreading the use and education of point of care ultrasound. As one of those cats that need herding she has mentored and coached us to be more effective in reaching our goals. I would recommend her in teaching/mentoring or coaching these leadership skills for others. She has much to give in this.”

“I have worked with Stacey for the last two years. Over that time, she has been invaluable to our organisation. Her vision, organisational skills, knowledge of corporate culture and adaptability have helped our organisation transform from a network of state-based groups to a cohesive and unified Australasian organisation, with a stronger membership base and leadership team. And additionally, she is the best meeting facilitator I have ever had the pleasure to work with! We have been incredibly fortunate to have Stacey on board, and look forward to continuing our journey, with her invaluable contribution, in the future.”

“I am grateful to Toitū for facilitating my coaching sessions with Stacey, which have been instrumental in navigating a challenging moment in my life. Through our work together, I have not only developed a sense of self-awareness but have also acquired practical tools that I can apply in my ongoing journey of personal growth. As an expat, Stacey's guidance has been invaluable in helping me navigate the ins and outs of New Zealand's organisational culture, enhancing my leadership development. Her non-judgmental approach and ability to facilitate introspection have been incredibly therapeutic. Stacey is awesome and I wholeheartedly endorse her as a coach. I cannot overstate the positive impact she has had on my life.”

“Working with Stacey has clarified my goals and sharpened my focus on how I will make a positive difference. I now have more motivation and confidence to take action on the things I care about.”

“Had the pleasure of working with Stacey over the last few months, and came to rely on our sessions as a productive workspace where I'd benefit from Stacey's insights and be challenged on my approaches to whatever I had going on at the time. I'd highly recommend time with Stacey for those at any stage of their journey. She's guided me through a period of huge personal growth, and provided me with long term learnings and skills to go forwards with. 5/5 stars.”

“Working with Stacey has been such a fulfilling experience for me. She so effortlessly helps me navigate both personal and professional challenges and I look forward to continuing our work together and seeing where it takes me.”

“Stacey helped the AFA to organically develop a strategic plan that felt genuine and resonated with members. The process was thorough and satisfying. Most importantly, the strategic plan is functional and completely unique to our business. We look forward to working with Stacey again in the future as our business grows.”

“What a privilege to go on my leadership journey with Stacey at my side. Not only is she a delight to work with, she is a steady source of advice, resources, and encouragement to develop a custom leadership toolbox and identity. It only took a few weeks under her wing to feel much more confident and capable in this space, and our ongoing work together keeps me steady on the path. I heartily recommend Stacey as a coach for anyone seeking to bloom as a leader.”

“Stacey is committed to her own and others' highest aspiration. She is always expanding her awareness and expertise in areas of new thinking about human potential. Stacey can make a bridge for people between what they most hope for and the practical elements of their lives.”

“We needed to unblock our way of thinking about how we could exit our family business of 10+ years and Stacey totally nailed it from the get-go. There were so many things to consider that were tangled and Stacey was able to illustrate with ease the thought processes through which we were able to obtain some clarity, make a decision and move forward with our plans. Stacey has a lovely personality, is skilled in communication, her integrity and professionalism made our meetings relevant, easy and something to look forward to, a privilege to work with.”

“In the time I worked with Stacey on the board at Karate New Zealand I found her able to bring succinct clarity and a great lens with other board members. Always looking to work smarter not necessarily harder, an intelligent and grunty executive. She quickly helped me and the organisation to set up for future success. All this was clearly her abilities around good governance.”

“Not knowing anything about starting a business, there were thousands of things going on in my head and I was wondering how I was going to pull this thing off. I needed to have my vision clear. Stacey made my vision the most important thing and made sure Holm came to life true to the vision. There were some major challenges along the way but she made sure I didn’t fail! She held my focus on the right order of things which made it all manageable. Had Stacey not been a client I wouldn’t have considered paying someone for this kind of support but I really want others to know that engaging Stacey and having her with me from the very beginning was the most important decision I made - even more important than having furniture.”

“I recommend Stacey and the services she can offer through Florescence. Working with her for many months has definitely illuminated the wholeness of what I want to bring into my next business venture. She has shown patience and gentle guidance while I unravelled a lot of 'spaghetti' and looked at the many possibilities. Her coaching style is backed up by a keen sense of strategy and knowledge of the components of a solid business. Give Stacey a call if you want to explore your gifts and how they could translate into a commercial offering.”

“It was great to go internal and get clear on what I do and why. Everything dropped away…all the comparisons…all the what if's and the should I’s. I no-longer have all of the different pathways mulling over in my head - I don't need to second guess and over think - Now I just think about the purpose.”

“It’s great working with Stacey. She always sees solutions and opportunities especially when the going gets tough. I love her connectedness and ability to call at the right moment with a word of wisdom/ encouragement. A great woman with a dynamic presence.”

“Stacey is a fantastic coach with a unique style to help you on your business growth journey. She will customise the session to work around you and your goals.”

“Stacey is incredibly easy to work with, open to all sorts of viewpoints and very patient. She kept me on track by focusing on my intentions for the business and making sure that I put these into action. Stacey is very intuitive and thinks ahead. She certainly helped me in getting results.”

“The result was a $50,000 increase in revenue in just 1 month and I now have a streamlined business, a PA supporting me and I’m booked up months in advance. It’s really been quite transformational.”

“For years I’d known what my purpose was, but it wasn’t until I began working with Stacey that I started to align my work with my purpose. I am developing a business doing what I love. I had never really been a definitive goal-setter but in business you have to take practical steps and acquire business skills. Stacey helped me to push outside my boundaries, stay focused and on track.”

“I must admit when I began working with Stacey I just wanted business mentoring and thought life coaching was of little use, that was for lost souls looking for some guidance and direction. I quickly modified my thinking and realised the holistic approach Stacey takes is an integral part of a successful happy individual in business. I am slowly aligning my life to be creating exactly the life I dream of and deserve. I would highly recommend working with Stacey to improve your business as well as find clarity, motivation and excitement in your personal life.”

“The clarity and depth of understanding that I gained in actualising my process with Stacey was profound and life-changing in how I now work. She helped me step up into the potential I always knew existed but was unable to reach on my own. I hold such deep gratitude to Stacey in helping enable me to access my authentic me more deeply than ever before. Working with Stacey is like being held in a warm, safe embrace whilst simultaneously being extended beyond your comfort zone so that you can do the stretch you've always wanted to do. She's consistently got your back, and intuitively knows when to support, challenge or inspire you into action. She brings clarity to your muddled thoughts, has the tools to help you shift stuck patterns of behaviour and finally, the empathy and listening skills that are rare and so infinitely invaluable. She's a gem!”

I would recommend Stacey to anyone who wishes to explore some alternative thinking to gain clarity and to better understand what a future may look like.”

“Stacey gives wonderfully insightful and constructive business coaching that fits with my lifestyle and personal beliefs. The amazing thing about working with Stacey is that you can achieve great results without it feeling like work or ignoring your personal life to get results in your business. Stacey leads you through your own journey helping you become clearer on your intent and purpose. Stacey's years of business experience provided me with a creative sounding board for ideas and valuable advice in areas of business I was unfamiliar with. I can highly recommend Stacey as a business coach and plan to engage her again in the next phase of my own business. ”

“Stacey recently presented at the Sport Northland Active Workplace October Insights Forum. Stacey's presentation on "Supporting workplaces create a healthier environment" was very informative, interactive and professional. The Northland wide workplace staff that Stacey presented to were engaged throughout the session with taking back to their companies some valuable tools to add to workplace wellness.”

“Stacey is an invaluable part of EMUGs. Her strong business acumen, communication and personnel management skills are an asset to the organisation which she has built up a great deal during her two years at the helm. In addition, Stacey is a fantastic leader and a great person to work alongside.”

“I've worked with Stacey on a number of projects across multiple great little organisations. Stacey is great at bringing out the best in entrepreneurs and their teams. She is a problem solver and a solution generator by default. I'd say many businesses and entrepreneurs would describe Stacey as their secret weapon. She has an innate ability to guide people and businesses through times of transition, taking her clients through a process and leaving them with a clear idea of what their mission, vision and values are moving forward.”

“Stacey does not 'buy' what is obvious at the surface; but has the intuition so you can do deeper introspection and connect with your authentic self. Stacey is an abundant source of insight generation. Things that one might store deep inside, are carefully and gently touched upon, so that you feel comfortable in exploring them. She has the power to see beneath the surface so that she can bring you out of your 'stories'. Stacey is totally non-judgmental which makes communicating with her more comfortable. She deals with her clients more 'holistically' so that each element of their 'being' is in congruence' with their 'doing'.”

“I highly recommend Stacey to anyone in business. Her amazing energy, deep knowledge and invaluable strategic guidance has really helped sort my life and business. I've made some pretty huge changes and can actually say I am living my 'life by design'. Hire this talented lady!”

“I was unclear with the bigger picture for my business and Stacey enabled me to draw out the concept, making it more concrete. She gave me some great insights and I would recommend her to anyone. Our partnership was like that of a bow and arrow with Stacey as the bow that kept the arrow going in a straight line until it reached its target.”

“Stacey is incredible. I needed to give myself a kick up the bum and stop holding myself back. She gently but firmly gave me one task at a time, guiding me through a change and rebrand including a new website. She rewrote what was clear in my head but very unclear on paper. Stacey is very tuned in and articulate. She works efficiently and intuitively. I ended up with exactly what I needed.”

“Stacey is a one of a kind individual who genuinely cares about the people and the organisations that she works with. Unafraid to challenge or walk where others fear to tread, she brings a balanced and authentic lens to the task of behaviour change and is passionate about helping create outstanding culture through the growth of the individual and the interactions of the people.”

“Stacey leads you through your own journey, helping you become clearer on your intent and purpose. Stacey's years of business experience provided me with a creative sounding board. It was the combination of both practical and emotional support that I needed to align my personal and business life. I love the flexibility of fine tuning simple tasks like organising my database through to the bigger picture of aligning my service offering with my real passions in life. I feel in control of the little things that used to be overwhelming which has given me my independence. I now know what I need to do and how to do it. ”
