“The hardest job in the world is opening a closed mind that already thinks it’s open.” – JoAnna Ferrari

My mission is to help leaders unlock their potential by expanding their thinking, building deep connections, and envisioning bold futures where they thrive both professionally and personally. Transformation isn’t about being taught—it’s about discovering what’s already within you.

Through Executive Mindfulness Coaching, leaders learn to embody Connection, Trust, Belief, and Acceptance, empowering them to break through limitations that once held them back. This isn’t a program that hands out answers—it’s a journey of self-discovery. Together, we uncover your unique strengths and show you how to nurture them for even greater success.

What Our Clients Say About Us

JJ is a nurturing, heart-warming and assertive leader. Her mentoring approach enabled me to discover new insights on my growth and think about my business in exciting and energising ways. I feel very lucky and grateful for my time with her.

Enrique

Coach

Working with JJ, and trust me this was work, she has given me the opportunity to ‘re-discover’ things about myself that over time I had forgotten make me excited, drive my passions and contribute to my overall well being. With her help I found where I can effortlessly succeed in my business and where I need to trust my instincts more boldly. JJ’s methods of unpacking to the essence, cutting away the fluff and BS to get to the core of what really matters is refreshing, confronting at times (but that is a good thing) and most important of all, done in an atmosphere of trust and openness. If you are willing to trust yourself, let down your guard and are curious in what can be, I would recommend JJ without any hesitation. Be bold, go on that ride and be inspired!

Govert

Senior Executive

Being mentored and guided by someone of the calibre of JJ Ferrari is a privilege. Her knowledge, business nous and insights have been (and are) so valuable to me. She’s able to see through the minutia, and shine the light on the path you need to take. I was looking for a way to add value to the work I do and in a couple of sessions, JJ helped me nut out a way forward. You cannot be this good without having the runs on the board and really owning your space…and that is JJ. I love her strategic mind. I’m so glad JJ is in my corner.

Annette

CEO

I was recently attending a series of workshops being run by JJ. They were different to any others I’d experienced. JJ knows her stuff and has a clever way of getting the message across. I would highly recommend JJ and her Paid to Grow Workshop.

David

Property Investment Coach

Within the first minute of meeting JJ, I was motivated – her positivity is infectious! She is a fantastic coach who is able to help and motivate people at all levels. She is a true professional and personally helped me achieve my goals. I always looked forward to my sessions with JJ and always felt so motivated and invigorated afterwards. She has a unique ability of helping you work through a problem and provide you invaluable tools to the get the results you want. I cannot speak highly enough of JJ!

Ellen

Senior HR Partner

JJ has been a great help to my business. She understands intrinsically the challenges and has the insight, experience and intuitive delivery to ensure I am able to overcome the hurdles. On the sales side of the business she was able to zone in on the weak spots of my message enabling me to instantly improve my outcomes when working with new clients. She is more than a coach, she is a strategist that gets results.

Janine

Business Owner

JJ is one of the most inspiring, genuine people I have met. Not only was I captivated by what she had to say, the insights I gained were amazing. I have learnt so much, had so many ah-ha moments and quite a few ‘of course’ moments too. JJ has a way of helping you see what’s in front of you so you can connect with your truth and figure out the changes you need to make. And she does all of this in such a genuine, supportive way. I’m looking forward to working with her further.

Josephine

Transformation Coach

JJ was my Exec performance coach while I was going through the partner process at a large professional services firm. JJ is very direct and speaks to the point. For me, this was fantastic to help me to articulate my business and value very clearly. She also helped me to identify areas where I wasn’t being myself, being natural or getting caught up in business language. After 3 months of coaching, I successfully achieved partner. I would recommend JJ to anyone really wanting to challenge their own thinking on how they lead and present themselves. Thanks JJ!

Marty

Consulting Partner

Thank you Thank you Thank you. JJ, your help and advise regarding my sales process has been invaluable. I have implemented the process and already seeing a 30% response. Although my sales cycle is quite long (up to 6 months) 50% of respondents have requested next steps. And that’s while getting used to the process. Once it is 2nd nature no doubt these numbers will go up. I wish I’d met you and worked with you years ago.

Nigel

Business Coach and Professional Speaker

JJ is No fluff, just complete honesty with clear and direct communication. My strategy sessions with JJ have given me actionable tasks to focus on for growth (personally and within the business). Thank you so much, I feel transformed, and appreciate really your help!

Sam

Author and Negotiation Coach

JJ Ferrari changed my life; through her own greatness, she helped me unleash the best version of me. JJ’s gift lies in the fact that she quickly helps you understand what is holding you back; she has a passion & drive to bring out your best. Her boldness & direct approach allowed me to look at things differently, and the way she challenged my own limitations allowed me to be more fearless in my decisions. I highly recommend working with JJ.
