About Michael Reid
My name is Michael Reid. I live in Tatura, Victoria, Australia with my wife of over 14 years- Jess & my 4 children- Max, Manny, Milo & Romeo. I love the outdoors, running, AFL- Go Geelong Cats & Tatura Bulldogs & relaxing. My favorite day of the week is Monday or Friday when I spend the day with Jess exploring, dining or winding down (with my phone on airplane mode ).
I own Michael Reid Coaching, I also own a contract cleaning business called Reid commercial Cleaning, I co-host the Conscious Entrepreneurs Network, I host a Podcast called Welcome To Consciousness, I am the Junior Football Coordinator of Tatura FNC, I spend a lot of time with my kids & wife & do whatever I want in between. That may sound like a lot but most days im not obligated to be anywhere I choose what & where I spend my time. Over the past 4 years I've poured my focus, time, energy into personal growth & development which has transformed the way I think, feel & experience life. This has transformed my health, relationships, finances, confidence, beliefs & identity. This has enabled me to follow my passion into life coaching to help others create their own ideal lifestyle. I am also very passionate about aligning with purpose & expanding consciousness (awareness) & love to help people in those areas as well.
The longer version:
I grew up on a dairy farm in country Victoria, Australia in a very committed Christian family. With the focus to fulfill my purpose I became a pastor at 18 years of age. After 10 years of leadership & preaching in Christianity (8 years ago now) I experienced a severe burnout & breakdown. I recognized I needed to leave Christianity which resulted in a belief system & identity crisis resulting in a lot of struggle including depression, anxiety & PTSD. I was in survival mode & being alive was hard work- I had low energy, was stressed & very disconnected from my most important relationships with my wife & kids & the community. In that time I went from working in a couple factories to starting a carpet cleaning business- after experiencing some success in business I became aware that on the inside I was miserable & disconnected. This lead to my personal growth journey which empowered me to improve my life & business. I expanded my carpet cleaning business into a contract cleaning business with up to 19 staff, 17 contracts & 100's of annual clients at one point. I was able to create time, financial & lifestyle freedom. In 2022 I sold the carpet cleaning business keeping the contract business Reid Commercial Cleaning to follow my passion of life coaching & helping people thrive. This took me on a journey of gaining clarity, changing beliefs, taking empowered action & overcoming personal limitations. This also led me to rediscover purpose & thrive physically, mentally, emotionally & spiritually.
I love the theory of Maslow's Hierarchy of needs which demonstrates how our basic needs are our physiological & safety needs- This is where the majority of people spend their entire life- meeting these needs. As we thrive in more areas of our life we are able to focus on psychological needs for love & belonging such as relationships, connection, intimacy, community, then for esteem needs such as respect, status, recognition, strength, self esteem. As we thrive in these areas we move onto the self fulfillment needs known as self actualisation where we experience our full potential in life & will be fulfilled with purpose in a completely unique expression for every individual.
I have learnt that anyone can do this. Anyone can create their ideal lifestyle even though it looks different for all of us- at the core we want to have a great work/life balance, great health, great relationships, achieve our goals, enjoy life & feel supported through the tough times.
If this interests you I am offering a free 1 hour lifestyle assessment to help you gain clarity about where you want to go.
I have plenty of experience in & am passionate about health, family, relationships, growth, business, lifestyle, community, purpose & more.
