Coaching services for neurodiverse individuals and business owners. 

Recently DDF has been going through significant change and has now partnered with re:think dyslexia.

re:think dyslexia is a global leader that will influence intergenerational change so adults with dyslexia are never left behind. Our mission is to create inclusive environments that enable adults with dyslexia to live healthier, happier, and more connected lives.

Working within a strength-based approach is used to support you in your personal and business journey. This model has been known to help people cope with and reduce stress and we know those with dyslexia, ADHD and Autism face significant levels of stress compared to the general population. 

Through our research and international work, we know that those with dyslexia can excel in these characteristics and we are here to help you build and grow them so you can live the life that you desire.

Testimonials from recent business mentees through the VCCI program in partnership with CRSE Group:

Claudia Davies Claudia's Cafe "Shae Wissell has been an absolutely brilliant mentor to me through the Victorian Chamber Business Recovery & Resilience Monitoring Scheme!  It's been truly difficult to find some energy to continue with my small business after coming through the trauma of the Covid pandemic and then plunging straight into world economic crises etc., etc.  This is where Shae stepped in and, without putting me under pressure, helped me to find solutions to problems and also was just there for me, listening to whatever I needed to talk about and it was a very, very personalised mentoring partnership.  I can't thank her enough and also can't recommend her enough, she's brilliant!"

Romy Renzow Birthspace "Shae has been invaluable to my business and the creative and practical processes. She has made it feel achievable and given me direction in challenging times. She has felt like a dear friend in the process. Gentle, honest, and vulnerable but visionary within healthy boundaries. She knows that a business isn't just a business, from her own personal experiences. She has helped me make many big and important decisions. I know I wouldn't be where I am now without her expertise. Deepest gratitude." 

 

Hayley Ward Proof Write "I feel very fortunate to have had Shae Wissell assigned as my mentor under the Victorian Chamber Business Recovery and Resilience Mentoring Scheme.

Not only was Shae knowledgeable and helpful about almost any business topic I broached, but she was also tremendously approachable and always had something valuable and insightful to offer. After each session, Shae left me feeling inspired, motivated, and grateful (and equipped with resources)!

I can’t recommend Shae enough as a compassionate, relatable, and knowledgeable coach who was genuinely invested in helping me achieve my business goals and dreams."
