The Change Makers’ Code

One-to-one coaching

Through The Change Maker’s Code you will come to:

🔥 Disrupt with Integrity: Live and breathe hope for the future - not as performance, but as a reliably unflinching stance.

💫 Lead with Conviction: Command respect by embodying deep self-trust, undeniable authority, and powerful presence.

👑Redefine the Future: Release inherited rules and expectations - to shape a life and leadership style that reflects who you truly are.

  • See clearly to act boldly. Uncover the deeper calling that lights you up — and won’t let you settle for less.

  • Protect your energy. Harness your untapped potential with focus and precision. Set boundaries and trust your inner wisdom to lead the way.

  • Release what was never yours to hold. Dismantle internalised narratives about why you can’t or shouldn’t. Let self-trust, compassion, and integrity become deeply embedded foundations.

  • Embrace the courage of your conviction. Command respect with a gentle, authoritative presence, and hold your own - without needing to prove, perform, or please.

  • Lead your legacy. Your voice, your vision, your gifts are not just personal, they're powerful. Embrace evolution, take aligned action, and lead in a way that transforms both your life and the world around you.

  • Bex walked beside me, and guided me, as I cleared out blockages and trapped emotions, and helped me to re-write the script, seeing that I am worthy and capable, and more than smart enough, to achieve the life I most desire for myself. I journeyed deep and was sometimes surprised, and often delighted, at what I found. This was possible for me because I felt safe and comfortable to be vulnerable and authentic. I never felt judged and amidst the deep dives, and sometimes tears, there was always laughter, compassion, and joy, in each and every session we had. Now, a very short 8 weeks later, I have a business plan, my website is almost ready to be launched, I am feeling confident and am 100% certain that I am on the right path and my soul feel aligned with my life again. It’s been a powerful and transformational journey for me and, by far, one of the best investments I’ve ever made in myself. I will be forever grateful that Bex came into my life, she’s a true gem .

  • I learned what was really holding me back and learned techniques and strategies to help me manage the unconscious blocks I had. I’ve learned to care about my wellbeing needs in order to make the changes I need to be happier in my own skin and commit to goals I have in life. I now have a deeper understanding of myself and what I want out of life. I’m consciously thinking about what I can do each day to achieve my goals in life. I reflect every night about the positives of the day and any learnings for tomorrow which gives me perspective on my life journey. I’ve learned I can do anything I set my mind to and most importantly, I’ve recognised that I deserve to be happy in whatever I’m choosing to do. I’ve taken control of my life again and it feels bloody good! I whole heartedly recommend working with Bex - she’s made a huge difference in how I approach my life.

  • [Paid Placements Aotearoa] that Bex headed grew from an idea to a national campaign that involved exceptional leadership and strategy to ensure success. It has been a remarkable achievement that shows exactly the type of determined, dedicated and courageous person that Bex is. To see this from an idea to a parliamentary rally and select committee appearance with all the associate media and public commitments in between says it all about Bex and her leadership skills and development of critical thinking and analysis. To watch the development of Bex across all aspects of building and implementing a strategy and her development into a confident and exceptional media and public voice has been awe inspiring. Clearly Bex has a huge future in mentoring and coaching others to work on and achieve their goals. Bex is a rare talent that I have no doubt will make every path a winner no matter what she chooses to chase.

  • Bex Howells’ leadership in the paid placement campaign in Aotearoa New Zealand has been exceptional, demonstrating a thoughtful and considered approach that ensures multiple perspectives are heard. Her ability to listen and navigate complex discussions has brought this critical issue into the public arena in a meaningful way. Her determination is evidenced in the significant growth of the campaign since its launch, and the subsequent media and political attention. The campaign messages are evidence-based which adds credibility and urgency to the need for rapid and extensive policy change. Paid placements would have life-changing impacts on the wellbeing of thousands of students engaged in professional and vocational higher education courses in Aotearoa New Zealand. Through her efforts, Bex has sparked important and far-reaching conversations, including in government policy spaces, that are contributing to the shaping the future of fair and sustainable workforce practices.
