Blake Fergus, EFT Healer
Junita has helped me move through so many of my blocks when it comes to not only my business, but my personal life. So many things in life can hold us back from growing into our best self and achieving our Dreams and she helped me pin-point my challenges and bust through them! She has a kind, authentic, professional yet personal approach to her coaching, and she will definitely kick you in the ass when you need it :). I have grown so much as a person, worked through my own self sabotage in my business, and gained so much clarity around my future from working with her. I highly recommend her as a coach!
Female Executive, SaaS
Junita is an incredibly engaging and natural coach. She has an impressive ability to unearth your beliefs, the vision, and then challenge you to get thinking hard about tangible changes to turn that vision into reality - all the while balancing this with pragmatism. I was really impressed at her ability to turn what she hears into credible insights. She’s a great coach but also just a really nice person with a great sense of humour. She’s a wonderful listener and shows a genuine interest in you as person – and a sincere belief in your abilities. I would highly recommend Junita as a coach!
Senior Policy Officer
Junita is incredibly insightful, kind and warm. She has an innate empathy and ability to understand her clients’ abstract issues, even those that have not been particularly well articulated. The methods, concepts and tools she uses to address areas of concern, are effective but not abrasive or intrusive. In the short time I have spent with Junita, I have found her insights and methods particularly helpful and they have made a real difference to me both personally and professionally and I have learned so much about my own personality, methods and mind.
Luci Rix, Project Officer
Junita has been an amazing coach not only for myself, but has impacted staff in the entire organisation. She’s extremely engaging and has been able to equip us with the resources and tools to tackle the intricacies of a start-up NDIS Service Provider as well as the NFP space. As someone who is very early on in my career, Junita has personally assisted me to define my career goals and explore different ways in which I can achieve them. She is extremely personable with a great sense of humour which makes you want to open up. I would strongly recommend Junita as a coach!

James F, CEO, Immutable
Junita came in at a critical time to help us get Talent Discussions done, and hit the ground running with great openness and a true talent at connecting with people. To do that and help us organise Immutacon (and then Remotacon) is phenomenal.
Michael G House Manager
My first interaction with Xpand was through a leadership course which Junita lead our management group through. She was upbeat, engaging, knowledgeable and I left each session feeling a sense of purpose to inspire my team to better results..... and I got them. Over 5 one on one coaching sessions with Junita she has mentored me so that I am more aware of myself, my values and my personality. I am more confident, courageous and captivating in my role as a leader. I have more energy to put towards all aspects of my life. I look forward to continuing to work with Junita and recommend her services to anyone looking to become an inspirational leader and healthier, happier human.
Ashik Ahmed CEO Deputy
People talk about War time CEO and peace time CEO. But I actually believe you have wartime HR and peace time HR who supports the CEO on such occasion. Junita is a rare individual who is capable of both. If things aren’t working, every organization needs a Junita. If things are working, you need Junita to build a better inclusive community. She is an amazing public speaker. She adds energy and lifts mood. She is very approachable by everybody. I am thankful for everything Junita did to help Deputy grow. No job is ever too big or small for Junita.
Alex C,CTO, Immutable
Despite only being with us for a short time, Junita left a fantastic platform for those who follow. The new CPO will benefit greatly from her hard work, particularly when it comes to our efforts around inclusivity. Personally, I was inspired her ability to gently drive important change without yet having full context on the business - she never let her newness block her desire to improve the experience of all Immutables, past, present and future.

Research & Product UX/UI Designer
My sessions with Junita helped me to gain more clarity around my own needs, things that I was not aware were missing in my life that have started to impact my career. Junita provided her guidance to help me find what I need in my life again. For me this is expressing my creativity in ways that bring me joy again.
It was a pleasure working with Junita, she spends the time getting to know and understand you and helps you to realise things that you haven't realised about yourself. Her experience with people and helping them as a coach really shows when she provides her guidance.

Managing Director APAC
Think & Grow
I've worked with Junita over a 3 year period in my last 2 roles as CEO of high growth technology start-ups. I worked with Junita as a trusted partner to create diverse, inclusive and people-first cultures in both organisations. As a fractional People and Culture leader, Junita helped shape the organisational strategy of the business, working as an Inclusive Leadership Coach to help build high performance, interdependent teams of complementary talent and ensuring that we hired and retained the "right people for the right roles". Whilst building a culture that was supported by strong behavioural standards, distributed ownership and measurement. Junita is an industry leader and promoter of DEIB so her skill set has never been more relevant in businesses moving cultures towards empowered voices from both introversion and extroversion energies
Leanne Craze, AM PHD
Board Director & Strengths Based Practice Lead
Junita offers the full package and gives 150 plus %. The leadership session she prepared and facilitated for us at Community Mental Health Services, South West Sydney Local Health District was dynamic, engaging and challenging. There was also gentleness and empathy. It was fun, so much fun and how true is it that fun helps us to learn. The easy flow of the session belied the amount of thought, research and preparation went into it. I recommend Junita and her company without hesitation.
Rathana Chea CEO MLI
Junita is a one of a kind leadership coach. For over a decade in my working life I was in various international senior management role for some of the world's biggest NFP change maker brands including Amnesty International and Greenpeace. A great career run by anyone's standards that spanned 5 continents. But it wasn't until I met Junita that my career took a sharp turn... upwards. Through her coaching I not only expanded my strategy company from 3 people to 47 people in under 2 years, but also founded my passion project: a climate NFP that focuses on increasing the participation and leadership of people of colour in the climate movement. I enjoyed our sessions over 10 months where she created a safe and motivating space for me to be challenged by her, a space where I could challenge in return and to distill together some directions of travel for who I hope to be in the world and how I was going to go about being that person. I credit my mindset, ability and drive to accelerate and grow my company whilst also founding my mission driven NFP to Junita's gentle, creative and wisdom filled coaching sessions. I cannot recommend her enough. It is no accident I was awarded a CEO of the Year accolade not long after I completed my coaching with her.
