About us
Our mission:
Our mission is to awaken people to a certain type of living only available by doing inner work.
Our program inspires awareness and courage to take committed action toward intentional living. It is possible to feel happy and content... Every. Single. Day.
This is the power of inner work.
Our Vision:
We envision a world where all beings feel connected to a life of purpose and deep fulfilment. A world where inner work is as common and is considered as important as outer work.
Who are we?
We are a team of qualified inner work coaches with a passion for helping others achieve, succeed and feel their best. We believe in freedom, honour and self-love. We are genuine, empathetic and passionate about the wellbeing of others. We nurture a sense of belonging, a sense of purpose and an environment of support, collaboration, acceptance and quality relationships.
Meet the team
Anthony Noud
Co-Director & Head Coach
Anthony is an industry-leading coach with over a decade of experience working with high-functioning individuals and high performers. His journey to becoming a high performer himself is nothing short of inspiring. Anthony overcame teenage heroin addiction, obesity, and a lifelong case of the ‘never enough's’
Learning how to access and then harness a power within, Anthony successfully re-built his life from the ground up. From morbidly obese to ‘Mr Qld’ Bodybuilding title. From being told by doctors that his ‘next step was death’ to being awarded as one of InQueensland’s top ‘40 under 40’ influential leaders. From destitute and hopeless to coaching and leading a business that has helped thousands of high functioning humans not only achieve more but lead richer and more meaningful lives, it is clear Anthony knows a thing or two about the transformation of mind, body and the power of the human spirit.
In a world where traditional ‘therapy’ often doesn’t suit and sometimes fails, Anthony and his team at Awakened Lifestyles have pioneered their own internationally accredited coaching modality, and leads a team of coaches working with individuals, groups and teams. From weekly programs helping the homeless through to 1:1 coaching of some of Australia’s highest achieving business, entertainment and industry minds. He is a regular keynote speaker, facilitator and influencer regularly acknowledged for his down to earth, unorthodox approach.
While what brings people to his work varies, the goal is simple, to lead a life where one can move toward a state of being ‘smiling when I die’. That is, to do, be and have all that is meaningful to the individual, in a way that leaves them satisfied and without regret.
For anyone that lives with a void inside, an inner whisper or knowing that they could have, do, or be more in this life, Anthony and team are dedicated to helping awaken that unrealised potential, believing that as not only a worthy, but necessary goal for us all.
Eve Wilson
Co-Director & Business Manager
Eve is Awakened Lifestyles' Co-Director and leads the team alongside fiancé and business partner Anthony.
Dedicating her early career to corporate success in the commercial property market and rapidly ‘ticking the boxes’ she was well on her way to establishing herself as the poster girl for the successful modern woman, when in 2015 she made the "the greatest find of my life", discovering a lump in her breast and being diagnosed with breast cancer at the young age of 34. Eve was also told she may never have children and these two things combined shook her off the hamster wheel and propelled a deeper look at the way she was living. Eve began to realise that perhaps her unconsciously fast-paced, masculinised, ‘get sh*t done’ approach to life may have been contributing to her ‘dis-ease’ and discontentment.
Having now spent a decade changing her approach to life, Eve is an advocate for living a values-aligned life over one striving for societal expectations. That you can still be a high achiever without having to abandon yourself, your health or your intuition.
Eve is ‘the living proof’ that working on one's emotional, psychological and spiritual health produces life changing outcomes. Eve is now in her mid-40s, with 2 children and inspires thousands across the business & in her networks to slow down, connect with themselves and take a proactive approach to building their best life from the inside out.

Ceri Ford
Inner Work Coach
Ceri came to Awakened Lifestyles after 5 years as a client with patterns of trying to have it all that led to workaholism and burnout, and programming of needing to achieve in order to be loved. She learned how to feel her feelings, despite all the fear and anxiety that started to come to the surface through a challenging and unexpected divorce.
After working in marketing, events and hospitality for two decades at high profile venues and brands, Ceri held leadership and mentoring positions at organisations supporting and encouraging women in the hospitality industry.
Since studying and immersing herself in the world of health, wellness and personal development, Ceri has turned her passion and energy toward being of service to others in the areas of nutrition and inner work.
Ceri holds a Bachelor of Psychological Sciences and a Bachelor of Health Science (Nutritional & Dietetic Medicine). She also has a number of coaching qualifications including being a certified Awakened Lifestyles Inner Work Coach, gained through her 12 years in the coaching industry.
She loves to explore Brisbane's food and cultural scene while embracing a slower, more peaceful life as a mum of one.
Lisa Jones
Inner Work Coach
From a keen interest in people and psychology at Uni to enduring her own acute debilitating mental illness in her mid 20s and then significant physical health issues in her mid 30s to now, Lisa’s story of transformation is nothing short of remarkable. Over the past two decades she has dedicated herself to understanding her own inner landscape and transforming it to live her best life every single day.
During her career, Lisa has worked across various senior roles leading people, 12+ years in public mental health working in lived experience roles advocating for people and systems change; and most recently as Director of Lived Experience in one of Brisbane’s largest metropolitan mental health services.
