Who's SoulFarmer?
Tom Kelsall, B App Sci, MBA, ACMC
How will I know that the Mindset Coaching & Training you do will work with me?
Well, you know firstly, I have done this myself. I wouldn't ask you to do anything that I haven't done so I know from my experience, as well as from the experiences of the many people that I have coached and trained, that the SoulFarmer Programs really work - big time.
As for me, I've changed careers, healed relationships, developed my passions and overcome serious chronic illness. And I've done all of this through improving the quality of my communication from the inside-out, my self talk and talk to others, and in this way truly empowered myself to create the life I want.
And as you can read in the testimonials, I have been privileged to coach and train many people to naturally change their worlds from the inside-out over the last 5 years and experience life with significantly greater fulfillment, happiness and success.
And finally, I actually know you can too. I know this.
What are your qualifications?
I am an Associate Certified Meta Coach (ACMC) with the International Society of Neuro Semantics, a Certified NLP Practitioner & Trainer and a Certified iWAM Professional. Maintaining my ACMC license requires ongoing professional development as well as meeting rigorous assessed coaching standards.
I've also undertaken considerable personal studies, reading over 90 books in Meta Coaching, NLP, Neuro Semantics, Self Actualising Psychology, Buddhist Psychology, Arbringer, Quantum Psychology, Non-Violent Communication and the philosophies of quantum physics
What did you do before becoming a Certified Coach and Trainer?
For more than 10 years I worked with hundreds of people as a Management Consultant in organisations including Ausply, Carter Holt Harvey, Esso Africa, Fibre Direct, NSW Department of Primary Industries, NSW Department of State & Regional Development, NSW Treasury, Pasminco, QLD Department of Natural Resources, Windowrie Winery and Zurich Financial Services. While this has afforded me in-depth knowledge and corporate experience, it has also given me the opportunity to observe a range of people, teams, leaders and cultures. To observe how people communicate with themselves and others for varying levels of success.
I heard you have a farm, is that right?
Yes, I am a part time farmer. It's a commercial business run with a Manager and while my role is mostly that of direction, I enjoy the connection to nature and it keeps me actively involved in the 'real' world. In that way I experience the same sorts of challenges and difficulties you experience unlike many coaches, trainers and counsellors who lead a more insulated life. I deal with staff, buyers, suppliers, financial management and the ever changing seasonal conditions so important in farming, such as the drought of the past 8 years. What this means is I don’t just talk theory, I actually live and walk the talk.
How did you get into Coaching?
Well, in 2003 I ‘woke up’ and began, just ever so slightly, to suspect that there was a pattern emerging in my life too - repeat events, repeat problems. And there was one common factor, me.
I wasn’t enjoying my work, my family relationships were strained and I had a serious and chronic illness. I wasn’t living my life with real enthusiasm, inspiration or happiness. I wasn't living the life I truly desired.
I sought out a life coach and the results of that, changing my world relatively quickly and easily from the inside out, was so amazingly fulfilling I wanted to share that with others. For me now, coaching and training people just like you and seeing their change and success gives me real fulfillment, happiness and success too.
