Your Financial Coach and Business Coach - Peter Rodgers

I like to work with

	Individuals who want to learn about money and gain control of their finances
	Small business owners who are stuck in a rut, consumed by their business with no time for themselves, their families or their friends
	Solicitors who feel dragged down by their practices and who would like more joy and fulfilment
	Financial planners who want more of a life
	Anyone who has a Gap between where they are in their lives and where they would like to be
	Anyone who wants to achieve Personal Freedom in their life

My coaching philosophy

I enjoy helping others develop financially and spiritually, to sort through the clutter in their lives and throw away the unimportant, the unnecessary and the unsupportive.

Peter's background:

I have studied economics, law, personnel management, psychology and hold a BA degree from the Australian National University with a triple major in human sciences, anthropology and South Asian (Indian) studies. 

In addition I am a Certified Financial Planner with eighteen years experience in financial planning and financial coaching.

I am a graduate of Coach U and the Graduate School of Coaching. 

As an anthropologist (a person who studies societies and social systems) I discovered both the power and the limitations associated with paradigms (a way of looking at the world).  Once we understand that there are unlimited ways of looking at the world and others, we open up to tremendous freedom in our thinking and actions.  Also understanding paradigms increases our tolerance and reduces our prejudice and ability to be manipulated by others.

My spiritual practice provides me with great support in all areas of my life and I lead a weekly Tibetan Buddhist meditation and study group.

I have owned my own businesses for more than thirty years in a variety of fields including various agencies, earthworm farming, the internet, financial planning, investment management and financial coaching.

Along the way I have also lived a self sufficient lifestyle in the Australian bush and hand built a mud brick house.

My businesses are based upon several important principles:

	Working smarter rather than harder.  Michael Gerber says to "work on your business, rather than in your business"
	This means having well developed, robust and efficient business systems
	It also means hiring and retaining excellent staff
	Using technology to make life easier and more effective
	That it's more effective to improve something that already works, rather than to reinvent the wheel

 

All of this allows me to leverage my time using a combination of business systems, staff and technology and a process of continual improvement.

This means that I have a life which :

	Allows me to spend four days a week at home with my wife and young son
	Enables me to have about twelve weeks of holidays each year
	Gives me the time to attend the Buddhist retreats and teachings that nourish me
	Gives me time for meditation, kayaking, sailing, walking and basically enjoying the beautiful natural environment that surrounds me
	Brings me an above average income
	Allows me learn, grow and develop
	Gives me the opportunity to be a financial and small business coach, which benefits my clients as well as being very satisfying and great fun.
