Planalife you want to live in through a Business on Purpose. My name is Ian Edwards and I am a professional business and executive coach and a certified behaviour analyst. In 2021, I have been in business for 37 years and coaching now for over 5 years. I love learning what makes people tick and helping them find the inspiration they need to love living life. To encourage means to promote courage and I really enjoy doing that. The purpose of this ”I Decided” series is to inspire people, young and old, that when they have a passion in their hearts they need to pick it up with two hands and run with two feet. To give all you have, to all you do. I am your host for these podcasts and I‘ve had the privilege of meeting some awesome people over my life in business and made friendships with some truly amazing people casually and professionally. The beauty of knowing these people, many for decades, is that I have been able to observe their life over a long time and watched them live their lives in a very authentic and significant way. They are a very humble group of individuals who, when I asked to interview them, were very surprised I would ask but happy to be involved. Their hope along with mine is to inspire others.

It is a pleasure to share with you in our “I Decide Series” for 2023 Michelle McDonell story this month.
Michelle is the CEO of Home-Start Family Services Australia.
Home-Start exists for parents, single mums and single dads, and New Australian families who haven’t established their new tribe yet and who are finding it difficult to cope. It has been operating across the world for 48 years and is in 22 countries.
They have free professional and volunteer services available for people in their homes. They provide training and support to their volunteers to equip and release them to take a journey with a family one family at a time.
Their primary focus is to support families whatever shape they take with children under the age of 8 years.
Michelle is a national and international speaker with a wealth of experience backed up by a passion for making a living and a difference. Michelle was born and raised in our local area of Lake Macquarie. She trained as a teacher but didn’t find her passion until she started studying social work and social welfare.
Now our local lass has a voice of influence to the world in a space that has the potential to rebuild communities one family at a time.
Michelle inspired, challenged, and educated me with a perspective of unconditional love and respect for so many people who are vital to our community but fly under the radar overlooked and misunderstood.
I hope you enjoy and consider how you may be able to know more about this amazing work.
Enjoy Michelle’s story.
