Business Coaching

Is your business costing you more than money?

  • Staff issues.

  • Communication breakdowns.

  • Personal relationships and health failing because the business never stops.

You don't have time to sit in a circle and talk about your feelings. You need to know what's broken and how to fix it.

Pettina Stanghon is a psychotherapist and business coach who has built and run her own companies — and knows exactly what it costs when people problems and self limitation goes unsolved.

Using behavioural science, neuroscience, and real-world experience, PS identifies what's getting in the way of your business performing — and tackles it head on.

No theories. No fluff. Just results.

What PS Fixes

Team problems:
Conflict, underperformance, values gaps or ongoing tension? The same issues coming up again and again. PS identifies what’s driving it and deals with it head on — without losing sight of the compliance and regulatory reality you have to operate within.

Your leadership:
Constant stress. Reactive decisions. No space to step back.
PS helps you stabilise how you lead — so you’re not running hot or making decisions you have to undo.

Burnout:
You can't stop — the business needs you. PS works with where you’re at and builds a way through it that’s practical and sustainable.

Relationship stress:
Work and home bleeding into each other.
Partner in the business with you. Things breaking down in the background while you keep the wheels turning. PS helps you navigate it without everything falling apart.

The stuff nobody talks about:
Life transitions. Financial stress and the shame that comes with it. A partner or family member in the business. A business that's become your entire identity. How you handle risk and your capacity for change?
PS names it, works with it, and moves you forward.

Who’s it for?

Tradies, contractors, owner-operators, family businesses.
People carrying more than anyone realises — and expected to keep delivering anyway.

If the strategy isn’t working, something underneath it isn’t.
If the team isn’t performing, something is driving it.

PS finds it and fixes it.

How it works

Start making change from day 1.

No strategy sessions - No pre-work. We hit the ground running.

Step 1 — Find the real problem
Not the symptom. The thing underneath it. Pettina maps what's actually going on in session with you— fast.

With decades of crisis management experience, Pettina knows how to get to the root issues quickly.

Step 2 — Fix it
Direct sessions, 1:1 or with your team. Pettina works with you to build practical strategies you can apply immediately — not general theory or homework you'll never do. Just a clear, realistic plan you'll actually use, with regular check-ins and accountability to keep momentum going.

Step 3 — See the difference
In how your team communicates. How you make decisions under pressure. How conflicts get resolved before they cost you. And how much headspace you get back at the end of the day.

Sessions available in person, online, by phone, in the surf, or on-site — whatever works for how you operate.

Who’s it for?

Stop scrolling. Stop collecting free resources and half-baked advice from people who've never run a business in their life. The answers aren't in another podcast or another influencer's five-step framework.

They're in understanding what's actually driving the problem — and doing something about it.

PS handles the business, the team, the pressure, and the stuff nobody else is equipped to touch. Practically, directly, and without wasting your time.
