III. WORD FROM THE FOUNDER 2015 - 2016
ANNUAL
REPORT
We nurture public trust by holding ourselves to the highest standard of
performance, ethics and confidentiality. Our exceptionally low overhead
means that more money is directed to serving the community by providing
further encouragement, education and the means of prevention. To date
we have not been able to secure government funding for our coaching services but our community
network continued to support us in referring their loved ones who need transformation.
A highlight for the year is the confirmation of candidature for my Doctoral Studies (20 April 2016),
which means that I am officially in research mode as I uncover the effects of Collaborative Peer
Recovery Coaching in people with poly drug use issues, that also have depression, anxiety or bipolar
issues
On the social front, we have cultivated many Facebook groups and pages so that we can reach
those that are unable or unwilling to seek traditional help. We also have more face to face interac-
tionswith clients as we open our doors for meditation and recovery networking weekly.
We hope you enjoy reading our productive journey for the 2015-2016 Financial Year. Help us contin-
ue to serve our community, keeping it safe from the harms of behavioural addiction and substance
abuse by referring to us, those that need our services, so we can keep doing what we do best.
Last of all, we are eager to take our service to more people, hence donations are always put
to wonderful use. All donations (over $2) are fully tax-deductible, our donations portal has already
raised over $60,000, go to: www.givenow.com.au/coachingwithsubstance

ANNUAL
REPORT
The University of Queensland has awarded Maria Pau, Founder of Coaching with
Substance a Confirmation of Candidature to officially continue her research on the impact
of Collaborative Peer Recovery Coaching on those with co-morbid (depression, anxiety,
PTSD, ADHD) polydrug use and abuse issues on the 20th of April, 2016. She has also sub-
mitted her Ethics application and this has also been approved which means she is in her
second year of her Doctoral Studies and due to finish her dissertation by mid-2018.
This study will provide important data on coaching drug and alcohol clients, which may be
duplicated elsewhere. The findings from this dataset can be a catalyst for a deeper insight
into the influences of coaching for Australians suffering problematic drug and alcohol use
behaviours. It examines the client’s willingness to abstain and how motivated they are in
achievement of abstinence goals. Her study will examine the coaching sessions and the
transcripts of these coaching sessions (over 3500 pages of transcripts) to study the impact
of Collaborative Peer Recovery Coaching on recovery capital resources and abstinence.

ANNUAL
REPORT
Expenditure Summary:
As for loans and expenditures, we have lowered our loans from $40,140
last financial year to now only $28,974, paying off $11,160 to date.
We operate a very lean charity, considering our face to face expo-
sure (130,000++ individuals reached), social media mileage (139,000

people) and service delivery numbers (107 individuals transformed through coaching or
training). Keeping the overheads low was possible through the work of our Founder, who
volunteers her time and the other Board Members who give generously, as well. Outsourc-
ing work through Upwork and hiring people from the Philippines also keeps the salaries
very low, where casual marketing staff that would have cost $30,000 a year is only setting us
back a few thousand.

ANNUAL
REPORT
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
IA 38634 CH 2031 ABN 18 279 236 638
(continued)
Independence
In conducting our audit, we have complied with the independence requirements of Australian
professional ethical pronouncements and the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission Act.
Basis for Qualified Auditor's Opinion
The amount shown as prepayments in Note 5 was paid to an overseas entity for future services and it
could not be confirmed that these services would be provided subsequent to the reporting date.
Accordingly, the amount should have been expensed.
Auditor's Opinion
In our opinion, other than the matter described in the paragraph headed 'Basis for Qualified Auditor's
Opinion', the financial report of Coaching with Substance Inc is in accordance with the Associations
Incorporation Act and with Division 60 of the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission Act
including:
i. giving a true and fair view of the Association’s financial position as at 30 June 2016 and of their
performance for the year ended on that date in accordance with the accounting policies described in
Note 1; and
ii. complying with Australian Accounting Standards to the extent described in Note 1, the Associations
Incorporation Act and Division 60 of the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission Act.
Basis of Accounting
Without modifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 1 to the financial report, which describes the
basis of accounting. The financial report has been prepared for the purpose of fulfilling the
Association’s financial reporting responsibilities under the Associations Incorporation Act and the
Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission Act. As a result, the financial report may not be
suitable for another purpose.
Emphasis of Matter
We draw your attention to Note 13 to the financial statements, which details the committee's decision to
prepare the report in accordance with the going concern assumption.
