Justin Coulson PhD

Dr Justin Coulson is one of Australia’s leading parenting experts and is a highly sought-after international speaker and author. He and his wife Kylie are the parents of six daughters. Yes… six. And yes, they’re all from the one family, and no, they aren’t disappointed, nor are they going to try for a boy.

Justin offers keynote speeches in workplaces and schools to boost wellbeing and improve relationships for parents, teachers, employees, and students.

A Current Affair

"Justin presented to our parent community and we found him warm, engaging and funny. Justin used examples that our families could relate to and his down to earth approach meant that many of our families left feeling empowered and that others shared their experience of parenting."

Rita Sakr – Student Wellbeing Coordinator – Emmaus Christian College

"We loved having Justin work with CMC. He was engaging, entertaining and a delight to listen to. Our staff appreciated the balance of insights based on research and practical application. Justin was funny, animated and kept our teachers interested and engaged."

Lisa Atholwood – Assistant Principal Student Wellbeing – Clairvaux MacKillop College, Brisbane

"Dr. Justin Coulson presented to both our staff and to our school community. He was able to use school specific data and information to tailor a package that will have a positive long term impact on the way that we interact with each other."

Andrew Buesnel – Principal – Garran Primary School, Canberra

"What i like about Justin is that he gets a feel for the group and then adjusts his presentation to meet their needs. He is engaging from the very first sentence.His topics are and responses are very practical and down to earth. he has a very realistic view of families and people immediately sense his genuineness."

Pauline Walkom – Education Officer – Catholic Education Office, Bathurst

"The way in which Dr Coulson supported our Design Make Create Faire theme of strengthening connections of dads with their kids was inspirational. His humorous and practical insights into Love, Laughter and Limits I am certain would have had a positive impact on all of the families that were present. What our teachers present shared with me afterwards was the practical implications for the strategies he suggested for families and how they would be applied in the school setting. Truly a gifted, kind and warm human being who is a breath of fresh air, mainly because of his unique ability connect with every parent and every child."

James Forrest – Principal Kimberley Park State School, Brisbane

Jobs, Careers, and Callings; Job Crafting

Why do you work? If you’re a leader in your organisation, why do your team members work? Is work a means to an end; a push for advancement and status; or is work valued by you and your team for its own sake? This was an area that I investigated deeply as I conducted my […]
