Jude is an OT with 30 years’ experience encompassing general hospital work (Darwin NT),
including remote rehabilitation community work in Queensland - Kowanyama Community, Torres Strait Islands, flying with the Flying Doctor service to remote areas providing allied health assistance.

Jude has worked in a variety of industries and multi-cultural settings with all ages and across all wards including acute psychology. She successfully ran her own private practise in upper limb rehabilitation, in the south-eastern suburbs of Melbourne and continues to have an ongoing mentoring role for regional hospitals- Swan Hill and Bairnsdale. She also enjoys private mentoring for people in crisis or those wanting to make a shift in their lives, using her occupational therapy skills and holistic counselling. Jude has run programs and workshops in the past in meditation and mindfulness, as she believes these are key elements for developing a deeper understanding of our lives and reaching our own unique idea of a successful life.
 

Jude is passionate about working with others to facilitate their achievement in meaningful activities, on an individual, group or community level.  Overall health is vital to her as it is linked to wellbeing and healthy immersion in life’s activities. As an OT she identifies the strengths and challenges an individual may have in everyday activities and works on solutions: strategies that are meaningful to the person and their sense of self and community. Being inclusive, valuing others and accepting differences are qualities she has developed to a high degree as her range of experiences demonstrates. She is very aware of the significance of the land, and our environment and chooses to tread lightly on this great planet of ours.

Working with Mary is a powerfully transformative experience. This is because of her personal insight and experience and the engaging, interactive process she’s developed for understanding how people think, feel and behave – the Sagacious model.

At the heart of the model is the ethos from which SAGE INSIGHTS takes its name.
Sagacious means ‘full of wisdom’. The wisdom that arises when individuals and teams go deeper in self-knowledge and understanding of others to gain transformative clarity. Mary lightly and skillfully moves amongst people and concepts. She is a buzz of energetic questioning and activity brings different perspectives to light. Initiating connection, influencing and cross-pollinating ideas. She activity delivers positivity, nourishment and wisdom that helps people move forward.

For over 25 years her unique ethos has proven remarkably effective in developing the insights and understanding needed to create change for individuals, teams and leaders. The Sagacious model and suite of accessible, creative, customised tools is based on a combination of leading behavioural science, research, and Mary’s experience as a highly regarded international educator and facilitator.
