~ Creating Positive Change ~
Welcome to my website! I am Jo Surkitt, a Wellness Educator, Keynote Speaker, and Practitioner with over two decades of experience in creating positive change and healthy choices in people's lives. I specialize in Professional and Personal Development, Leadership, Health and Wellbeing, Mindfulness, Positive Psychology, Resilience, and Emotional Intelligence.
My mission is to inspire, motivate, educate, and assist people in creating a life of balance and fulfillment, both at work and at home. I have helped many businesses, organizations, schools, universities, and individuals achieve their goals and improve their overall happiness and wellbeing.
My approach is grounded in simplicity, and I teach simple tools and techniques that people can easily apply to their daily lives. I am passionate about helping people achieve their full potential, and I believe that everyone deserves to lead a happy, healthy, and fulfilling life.
I am a proud mother, passionate traveler, and a practitioner who has successfully overcome chronic illnesses like Chronic Fatigue, Bilharzia, Bells Palsy, and Fibromyalgia, through Intuitive Intelligence, alternative medicine, lifestyle, and food changes. My journey into wellness began in the 90s when working in the travel and tourism industry. I was diagnosed with multiple chronic illnesses, and no western medicine or techniques were improving my condition. I have also been diagnosed with ADHD in 2016 and have been working with neurodiverse adults and children for over 20 years in clinic and retreats and workshops.
I have traveled to 57 countries, learning new cultures and discovering different ways people create a healthy lifestyle. I am particularly intrigued by the Blue Zones around the world and have added them to my 'Bucket List.' I co-owned a Natural Therapies college and clinic in Melbourne in the early 2000s and later made the sea-change to the Surf Coast, Victoria in 2006.
My expertise covers a range of modalities including Corporate Wellness, Nutrition, Massage, Positive Psychology, Emotional Intelligence, Medical Intuition, Reflexology, Herbal Medicine, Stress and anxiety relief, Energetic healing, Holistic Counselling, Aromatherapy, Flower Essences, Wellness and Mindset Coaching, and Reiki.
I feel truly blessed to work with so many talented, inspiring people that are ready to transform their lives. I am immensely proud of all my clients, who achieve amazing things during our time together and go on to live a wonderful life.
Jo presents regularly at carer retreats, corporate retreats, conferences, wellness retreats, in schools and community events. Jo often speaks at events such as Women's Health Week, R U OK day, Mental Health Week and Carer's Week.
