ABOUT THE FOUNDER & CEO JUSTINE MARTIN
_JPG.jpg)
Justine Martin is a Resilience Transformation Coach, International Keynote Speaker, Book Author and Podcast Host. Known as the Queen of Resilience; her passion, energy and story to overcome adversities, is now a survival guide to thousands.
​
Her story is unique, and courageous and it will challenge your belief of what strength and determination is?
​
Eleven years ago Justine was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, underwent three heart surgeries and then battled three primary cancers. Medical specialists told Justine, she would never work again. But that was never an option for her! Justine catapulted herself into the world of business. She not only changed her life to give it purpose & direction but also to inspire those around her with her story and determination.
​
After learning how to paint and using her art as therapy, she has become a multi-award-winning artist and successful business owner of Juzt Art. This direction gave her the first steps of strength and determination to take control of her financial future.
Her own journey inspired the passion and launch of
business number two; Resilience Mindset.
Resilience Mindset initially began with coaching, but quickly grew with the launch of the Resilience Mindset Podcast and resilience books co-authored by Justine. As an MS Ambassador for seven years, Justine discovered her passion for keynote speaking & how her story had become the survival guide to so many and Resilience Mindset once again expanded to include Keynote Speaking around Australia & overseas. In 2022, Resilience Mindset grew again with the launch of ‘Team Finger Print’ a new corporate program combining a morning of resilience team building and an afternoon of bringing the team’s vision to life through painting.
​
Justine’s dedication and passion for helping & coaching others was recognised winning Gold at the 2021 prestigious national AusMumpreneur Awards for ‘Coach of the Year’ and awarded 7 national awards during 2021 & 2022 for her dedication and outstanding performance across her businesses.
​
In November 2022, Justine won the distinguished ‘International Speaker/Coaches Judges Award’ in a packed room at Q1 Gold Coast against 200 other finalists! This award acknowledged and cemented that Justine’s resilience speaking & coaching message is motivating and inspiring to so many people not just in Australia but other parts of the world.
“It was incredibly valuable hearing Justine’s story and she was such a good public speaker. The humour in her presentation helped hearing a lot of sad life events and how she’s navigated through.”
Sally K. Attendee at MS Australia Event
“Justine is an engaging, informative and clear public speaker. At no point did I lose interest in, or lose track of where we were in her presentation – excellent public speaker.”
Andrew N, Attendee at NDIS Talk
