WELCOME TO THE COMPLETE CONFIDENCE LAB
If you’re a self-doubting, professional, your journey to unshakeable confidence starts here on Saturday, 31 May from 9:00 am to 11:00 am (Syndey time).
The Complete Confidence Lab is the fastest way to turn self-doubt into self-assurance.
It’s a 21-day coaching lab for Diligent but Self-Doubting Professionals. Inside, you’ll learn to drive your own brain, so you can be naturally bold, relaxed and confident. Discover how to instantly switch on your self-assurance and power up your credibility, so you can shine with clarity, wisdom and confidence.
Do you feel like a token hire who has no real credibility or influence?
Do you secretly believe you’re failing, lazy or not successful enough? Are your ‘funny comments’ about being a perfectionist not really jokes?
I hear you! I know what it’s like to be stuck in Imposter Mode.
Overthinking every decision. Over-engineering every task. Feeling trapped by your own high standards.
Wanting to change, but not knowing how. It’s frustrating.
Hi. My name is Eleanor.
I’m an NLP trainer and coach. My passion is helping self-doubting high achievers become bold, high-impact professionals.
If you struggle with self-doubt, I can show you how to revamp your confidence in 21 days. Without working on your inner child or doing cringe-worthy trust exercises. I’m not one of those coaches who spout on about what your problems are. That’s guaranteed to make your confidence problems worse! I teach you how to drive your brain—so you can tame the chaos, speak with influence and be the proud architect of your own success.
I created The Complete Confidence Lab to help people like YOU. Let’s look at how it works.
Are you stuck in a fake-it-til-you-make-it rut?
I’ve been there, too
In my early forties, I was standing in YOUR shoes. I was highly successful and working in a field I loved: training and development. But I was working too hard. compensating for deep self-doubt.
My ‘day job’ was managing a training team in a major university. Plus, I was running NLP classes every weekend and leadership groups two nights a week. I was a key figure in the Australian training industry.
My passion is helping leaders—and their people—thrive
I started my career as the playwright and founding director of The Magic Story Players Theatre Troupe. This was a children’s educational theatre company. We were on the road for five years. That was fun, but also tiring, especially as I already had a good dose of imposter syndrome. Eventually my self-doubt dragged me down. I didn’t beieve the business could really succeed. So I got at job at the University of Sydney. There I discovered my passion for training and ‘one to one teaching’ (the term ‘coaching’ didn’t exist yet). I spent 15 years training and coaching university staff. Then I became a manager and my imposter syndrome went into over-drive. So I quit. I was stressed out by job interviews, so I decided to do my own thing. I set up a business called Metamorphosis Consulting. Three years later I changed the name (oh, the irony!) to Think Learn Succeed. Since then I have:
- Trained over 50,000 people across Australia
- Coached hundreds of managers and people helpers
- Designed more than 90 positive psychology courses
- Written a book, Difficult People Made Easy
- Produced over 150 YouTube videos
- Set up an online learning lab
- Stayed in business through COVID-19 by ‘pivoting’ to become a pandemic psychology expert (let’s hope I never need that skill set again)
I’ve trained leaders in many iconic Australian businesses, including:.
- Sydney Opera House
- Essential Energy
- NIDA (National Institute of Dramatic Arts)
- Thales Australia
- Telstra
- The Iconic
- Qantas
- University of Technology, Sydney (UTS)
- Waverley Council
- Weight Watchers Australia
- Westpac
- Wollongong University
- Bachelor of Arts, majoring in Social Anthropology
- Graduate certificate of Adult Education
- Master Practitioner of Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP)
- Trainer of Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP)
- Graduate Diploma of Applied Psychology (Counselling)
- Diploma of Positive Psychology
- A wicked sense of humour and the ability to turn misfortune into wisdom
On the outside, I looked successful. Inside, I felt like a fake.
Plagued by imposter syndrome, I obsessed over each detail of my work. Everything had to be perfect. I worked ridiculous hours and expected my team to do the same.
Yes, I was achieving great things.
But functioning at that level wasn’t sustainable. I lived on coffee, chocolate, and Nurofen. My anxiety levels were so high, that I was lucky to sleep three hours a night.
Somehow, I kept going. Then one day I collapsed in the street, struck down by the first of many migraines.
That was a turning point. I knew I had to change. So, I turned my helping skills inwards. Luckily, I had the toolkit I needed. I reprogrammed my mind and behaviour, using NLP. You can, too.
“I’m from the older generation of women who were brought up to believe that talking about your personal capabilities was ‘boasting’ and totally inappropriate. So, it was a big step forward for me to be able to say, ‘This is what I can do’.′′
~Sue Woods. 2021.
“Everyone needs an Eleanor Shakiba in their lives—a cheerleader, a coach and a critiquer—a killer ‘3C’ combination!”
~Rebecca Hammil. 2021It’s time to lead with REAL confidence, not just fake it.
Let’s face it: pretending to be confident is exhausting. Plus, if you do it too long, your imposter syndrome gets worse. You yearn to break free of self-doubt and overthinking. To stop reading self-help books and start believing in yourself. You become tired of putting on a brave face. You want to trust your own decisions—and know that others trust them, too. You want to BE a confident, credible, kickass professional.
But nothing you’ve tried so far has worked. Here’s why.
Many high achievers have been programmed to live in Imposter mode since childhood. Teachers pat the head of a child who plays quietly, but frown when a youngster ‘shows off’. Adults praise little girls for sharing their toys, but tell them off for being outspoken (aka ‘bossy’). Even after breaking the glass ceiling, female leaders find themselves in no-win situations. One day a new manager is criticised for being too pushy. The next, she’s accused of not being assertive enough. No wonder so many talented professionals secretly believe they’re failures! Remember, you did not bring this on yourself.
Imposter syndrome is NOT your fault.
I stopped living as a self-doubting imposter and rebooted my brain’s confidence circuits, using NLP. You can, too.
When your brain is set to Imposter Mode, you:
- Second-guess every decision
- Want to please everyone (except yourself)
- Take the mantra ‘everything has to be perfect’ WAAAY too seriously
- Feel overworked, overloaded, overwhelmed
- Put yourself down and hold yourself back
- Have great ideas, but can’t get them heard
When your brain is set to Confident Boss mode, you:
- Back yourself every time
- Express yourself assertively
- Put your efforts into the RIGHT stuff and (gasp!) work reasonable hours
- Feel productive, happy and in control
- Accept yourself and claim your space
- Speak early, often and with persuasive power
Which mode is your brain set on right now?
If it’s the Imposter Mode, I have some good news. It IS possible to feel confident and high achieving again.
The Complete Confidence Lab isn’t just a course. It reprograms the confidence circuits in your brain
Inside The Complete Confidence Lab, you’ll learn to outsmart self-doubt and worry—so you can feel bold,vibrant and powerful. You’ll build the clarity, focus and self-belief to make a difference to yourself and others.
When you’re on the other side of The Complete Confidence Lab, you will know exactly how to:
- Eliminate self-sabotage, fear and perfectionism
- Trust your own decisions, so you can spend more time leading and less time worrying
- Find brilliant solutions to problems, without getting bogged down in ‘what if’ thinking
- Overcome self-consciousness, so you speak up and show up a professional with pizazz
- Quit outdated thinking habits, so you can thrive in times of uncertainty
- Overcome the powerful social conditioning that makes too many talented women feel unqualified, inadequate and incompetent
- Stop second-guessing yourself, so you can lead with focus, clarity and conviction
- Believe in yourself, back yourself and BE yourself
Unleash the power of Complete Confidence.
But that’s just the start!
It’s also a forum for laser-focused coaching and inspiring conversation. The Complete Confidence Lab is NOT an impersonal, lecture-based program. There are NOT hundreds of people in the group. That means you can connect, interact and get personalised advice every step of the way.
Confidence is NOT a personality trait. It’s a habit. Your journey to complete confidence starts by wiring that habit into your brain. Woo hoo! It’s time to strengthen your brain’s self-belief circuits and weaken self-sabotage circuits. Learn to STOP a confidence crisis before it sets in. Rewrite outdated ‘stories’ that drive your imposter syndrome. Master three essential NLP tools.
- Use 3 minute Reset Patterns to interrupt a ‘crisis of confidence’
- Upgrade your self-concept, by identifying and rewriting the Metaphors You Live By
- Use Submodality Shifts fire up your confidence and self-belief
What sets off perfectionism, self-doubt and procrastination? The voice of your ‘inner critic’. You’ve probably been told to challenge it or silence it, but that’s easier said than done! Here’s why: your inner critic is NOT JUST ONE VOICE. It’s a mashup of all the judgmental voices in your life: teachers, parents, school bullies, the ex you never got over. That’s why you need MULTIPLE tools for dealing with negative self-talk. These four NLP processes fit the bill.
- Challenge the voice of self-doubt and perfectionism with Meta Model questions
- Turn down the volume of the ‘voice in your head’ using Submodalities
- Program the ‘alarm system’ that triggers your brain to suppress unwanted thoughts—so you won’t even hear them in the first place
- Install a compassionate inner coach voice, using a powerful NLP trance audio
Stop sabotaging yourself with exhausting, workaholic routines that limit your success. It’s time to GET THE RIGHT STUFF DONE. Stamp out Dark Triad beliefs that compel you to work too hard, trap you in fire-fighting mode or turn you into a control freak. Tame chaos and control time vampires, so you can be a results-driven leader instead of a crisis-driven mess. It’s easy with these NLP tools.
- Use the Quick Belief Change process to interrupt your mind’s self-sabotage programs
- Train your brain’s Reticular Activating System to stay focused on your goals, using NLP Future Pacing techniques
- Use the Savvy Boss Time Model to 10x your productivity within 48 hours
- Recode unconscious ‘rules’ that make you feel inadequate or incompetent (even though you work 10 times harder than everyone else) and replace them with Beliefs of Excellence
Break free of the social conditioning that keeps you silent in meetings or downplaying your achievements. Hone your communication skills, so you can speak with credibility, impact and persuasive oomph. Use influential language patterns to sell your ideas. Prime others to listen, say ‘yes’ and seek out your opinions – so you can lead and inspire at all levels. Get results with these NLP skills.
- Relax while you build the neural pathways of a confident speaker, using NLP trance induction
- Deliver persuasive and impactful messages, using the Milton Model of influential language
- Use agree to agree frames and cognitive anchors to trigger ‘yes’ responses when you speak
- Reprogram the unconscious habits that cause others to perceive you as a ‘low status’ speaker – so you can 10X your impact as a manager or business owner

“For me, a really effective aspect of the program was using the NLP resource called Fearless Change. I listened to this every day for one month and my complete demeanor and approach to stressful situations has changed. I am now more composed and measured. I am amazed how this daily practice has recalibrated not only my thinking, but my behaviour.”
