Happy Clients
justin milesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Working with Y Coaching has been incredibly valuable. Conrad acts as a trusted strategic sounding board — asking the right questions, challenging assumptions, and helping bring structure to complex decisions. The process was professional, thoughtful, and focused on long-term sustainability rather than quick fixes. If you’re a business owner needing clear strategy and experienced guidance, Y Coaching is well worth engaging. Justin - Adelaide LukeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Working with Conrad over the past six months has genuinely changed how I run my business and how I show up as a director. When we started, I was constantly in the weeds — dealing with staff issues, cash stress, time pressure, and carrying far too much in my head. Conrad didn’t give me generic advice or fluffy motivation. He helped me get clarity — on what I was tolerating, what I needed to decide, and where my role as an owner actually starts and stops. The biggest shift for me has been structure and control. I’m delegating more, communicating better, taking far less rubbish from staff, and making decisions faster instead of letting things drag. I’ve also got a much clearer handle on my numbers, cash flow, and what needs to happen before I scale or invest further. Conrad asks the hard questions, but always with context and care. He’s helped me think longer-term, not just survive week to week. Six months in, the business feels calmer, more predictable, and more professional — and I feel clearer and more confident as a leader. If you’re a business owner who’s technically strong but feeling stretched, reactive, or stuck in the day-to-day, I’d highly recommend working with Conrad and Y Coaching. — Luke PatrickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been working with Conrad to boost my growth performance over the last 6 months, together we have implemented a wide range of techniques and strategies to gain results and boost client engagement with my business in the residential building industry. Conrad’s attention to detail with all of the planning and programs we follow are always very professional and have been acquired from a successful work history in a wide range of industries he coaches across Melbourne and remotely in other areas in Australia. I encourage anyone who is ready to boost their potential to speak with Conrad as your only wish following will be that you should have taken up this opportunity earlier. Look forward to working with you and achieving my growth goals for the remainder of 2025 and beyond in 2026. Thank you, Y Coaching.
