“Insightful, Experienced, Compassionate and Committed.”
Hi, I’m Matt Linnert
A mentor and coach for business owners who want more than just success on paper.
Success isn’t one-size-fits-all. I help business owners find the clarity, confidence, and control to build businesses — and lives — that feel right to them.
Here’s a little more about me and the work I love:
-
Through my coaching consultancy, I’ve had the privilege of working with leading organisations such as Zurich, AXA, Macquarie Bank, Comminsure, Securitor, NSW Health Pathology, and many others.
Today, I’m passionate about helping small to medium-sized business owners — people who have backed themselves to build something meaningful and are ready for their next chapter.
If you’re feeling stretched, stuck, or unsure about what’s next, I help you find the clarity, confidence, and control you need to realign your business — and your life — with what matters most to you.
Together, we create a path that feels sustainable, successful, and genuinely fulfilling.

I bring over 21 years of experience mentoring and coaching business owners, backed by quality formal education and a wide range of real-world ventures.
Some highlights include:
21 years running my own mentoring and coaching consultancy.
15 years founding, developing, and running Personality Quiz (an online personality assessment platform).
10 years founding and growing Collective Heart (a community-focused membership organisation).
9 years co-founding, building, and selling innergi (a white-labelled financial education and engagement platform) to an ASX Listed Financial Services Company.
10 years combined experience in the Financial Services and Education sectors.
I’ve completed a Degree in Education (majoring in mathematics), a Diploma in Financial Planning, a Diploma in Yoga Therapy, and accreditation as a Personality Assessor using the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator.
-
My focus is to help my clients create businesses that are financially strong and personally sustainable.
I’m not the right coach for those focused only on profits at any cost.
I love working with business owners who want success without burning themselves out.
-
I’m proud to have spent over two decades building a business, and offering a service that is still deeply meaningful and engaging for me.
It’s been an honour to work with so many exceptional people, many of whom have described our time together as life-changing.
Watching clients move through different chapters of their business and life, growing wiser and stronger along the way, is deeply rewarding.
-
Many consider stress to be a healthy motivator. For me, stress has always felt toxic.
I find my energy by connecting to what I value, what I love, and what naturally inspires me. That’s the kind of sustainable motivation I seek to live by — and the kind I love helping others discover too.

Life Outside of Business
I’ve been married for 22 years and have two teenage kids. We’ve built an awesome family unit based on respect, love, and acceptance — something I feel incredibly lucky to have.
I’m an avid traveler and have explored more than 50 countries around the world. Traveling has given my life greater depth and expanded my appreciation for diversity and what truly matters most to me.
I also love the ocean. Surfing and swimming are a regular part of my life — there’s something medicinal about being in salt water that recharges me both physically and mentally.
Gardening is another passion. I have a special relationship with plants, and spending time in a thriving garden always feels nurturing. It reconnects me not just to nature, but also to myself. I love how nature is always teaching us how to grow in a balanced way.
And I love hanging out with friends — those catch-ups where you end up talking about everything and nothing all at once. Definitely good for the soul.
