Meet our founder and course creator
Meet our founder & course creator. Rachel is an award winning coach and leader of Indigenous women globally. She started Rise in 2015 to solve a problem and gap in the market. No one was calling themselves an indigenous coach, or training indigenous women to be coaches.
Today Rise has a thriving community of coaches in all industries from business, mental health, leadership and community development. Rise manages multiple contracts and all are led or facilitated by graduates of Rise programmes.
