DEE MATLOK
DARE To Be Awesome!
Hi, my name is Dee. I'm a wellness transformation coach, hypnotherapist, and corporate trainer, and the creator of the DARE Model, a four-part system that helps you create healthy habits that stick. The DARE model forms the basis of my first book, DARE to be Awesome: How to Create the Life of Your Dreams One Habit at a Time.
LIFE COACHING
LIFE COACHING SOUNDS 'FLUFFY'. WHAT IS IT EXACTLY?
Life coaching is a process that is focused on the future and in taking action. A life coach empowers an individual to identify their goals and to develop an actionable plan to achieve them. A life coach does not provide advice.
BUT ISN'T LIFE COACHING THE SAME AS COUNSELLING?
No. Counselling and therapy focus more on the past, on emotional healing and releasing psychological blocks.
HOW CAN A LIFE COACH HELP ME?
Do you feel stuck or that you are not reaching your full potential?
Is there a gap between where you are now and where you want to be in life?
Does your future look overwhelming or uncertain?
A life coach can assist you to move forward in your life by helping you build on your skills and strengths that you may not be aware of and to help you unlock your potential.
WHAT DOES A LIFE COACHING SESSION LOOK LIKE?
Life coaching is usually conducted one-on-one over the phone or via Zoom (or similar application) and a session lasts approximately 45 minutes. Your life coach will ask you a series of questions, such as what you want to achieve and where you see yourself in the future. Through deep questioning, the life coach will empower you to explore the options available to you to achieve your goals and for you to identify achievable action items to support those goals.
You can attend as many coaching sessions as you feel you need, however many people will attend a number of sessions over a period of several weeks or months. All sessions are confidential.

HYPNOTHERAPY
WHAT IS HYPNOTHERAPY?
The experience of being hypnotised is essentially being in a deep relaxed state yet with a heightened awareness. Many of us experience such a state every day, for example, if you are driving along a familiar route and you don't recall driving past a certain landmark.
Hypnotherapy sessions can be conducted face to face or over Zoom (or similar platform) and go for about 90 minutes.
WILL YOU MAKE ME CLUCK LIKE A CHICKEN?
When someone mentions hypnotherapy, many people think of those dreadful stage hypnosis scenarios where people are up on a stage and are asked to cluck like a chicken.
That’s not what clinical hypnotherapy is about.
In hypnosis, you can’t be forced to do something against your will or that is against your values and beliefs.
All hypnosis is self-hypnosis and the hypnotherapy practitioner is merely a facilitator.
Research and empirical evidence has shown that hypnotherapy works in helping people with a range of conditions.
WHAT CAN HYPNOTHERAPY HELP WITH?
Hypnotherapy can be used to help in a variety of circumstances, such as:
Quitting smoking and vaping
Quitting alcohol
Weight management (I have specialist certification in Virtual Gastric Band)
Sports performance
Improving confidence and overcoming imposter syndrome
Better concentration and memory
Greater listening skills
Tackling procrastination
Fears and phobias
and more

ABOUT ME
I haven’t always been a wellness coach. I used to be a lawyer, working for top multinationals and leading international law firms in Australia and in the Middle East.
Having worked in high-pressure environments, I understand the importance of a healthy lifestyle and how it can bring out the best in each person in both their professional and personal life.
So, I now help other busy professionals implement healthy habits so they can look, feel, and perform at their best.
I'm a certified wellness coach, hypnotherapy practitioner, and the author of DARE to be Awesome: How to Design the Life of Your Dreams One Habit at a Time, a book to help people create positive habits that stick. I also have qualifications in food psychology, exercise science, and culinary arts.
I'm a keen runner and triathlete, having completed several long distance triathlons as well as 250km, self-supported ultramarathons across some of the toughest terrains in the world, including the Sahara Desert. As part of those experiences I appeared in various newspapers and magazines as well as on television and radio. I have also been a guest speaker at the “Inspire Talks” sessions, a series of talks to inspire high school and university age women to strive to achieve academic, professional and personal excellence.
I am also committed to raising awareness about mental health and wellness issues and have raised significant funds for the Black Dog Institute. This led to my nomination for the Australian of the Year Award in 2014.
When I am not helping others be their best, you can find me enjoying the great outdoors or in the kitchen making a delicious meal.
