I’m Megan Luscombe and I’m the service.
Folks leave feeling seen by me, without judgement, often for the first time. And they leave with strategy built specifically for them, or their relationship, not a template pulled off society's shelf and handed back to them as advice.
What I do
Confidential advisory and strategy for the hard stuff.
The affair nobody knows about. The friend group you actually hate and want to leave. The relationship you can't quite name what's wrong with, but you know something is. The thing you said to your sister that you can't take back. The conversation you know you need to have but you’re choosing avoidance instead. The person you can't stop thinking about who isn't your partner. The life you're pretending to want with the person you're supposed to be marrying because it looks right on paper. The secret you've been carrying so long it's started to feel like a personality trait.
I've sat across from folks negotiating a version of themselves, or their relationships, they're not proud of.
Society already sold you a template on what a life should look like. What a relationship should look like. Who should want what, when, with whom. Whether you should want one at all. Most of the industry just repackages that same template and sells it back to you dressed as advice. I don't do that.
I'm not interested in what your relationship is supposed to look like. I'm interested in what you actually want it to look like. Even if it's nothing close to the same thing. Even if what you want is no romantic relationship at all, a life built around friendship and chosen family instead, or a hundred different relationships across a lifetime that never fit one box.
I'm not here to help you build a more comfortable version of a life or relationship that's actually running on old, patriarchal scripts.
Married. Poly. Monogamish. Single. Open. Unsure. Questioning. Curious. Not interested, and done pretending otherwise. Straight, queer, or somewhere in between still figuring it out.
Every kind of person. Every kind of relationship. Every kind of mess and every kind of secret. I'm not fazed by any of it, and I never will be.
Some come to me with one specific fire to put out. Some come back for years, because life and relationships keep handing them new ones. Both are exactly the right reason to be here.
What that looks like
You talk. Properly. No filter, no polish, no version you've cleaned up for public consumption. Say the thing exactly as it happened, exactly as it felt, even the parts you've never said out loud before, about the relationship, or the lack of one, or the six different kinds you're juggling at once, or just about you, and where you're actually at.
Sometimes that turns into a strategy, a clear plan for the exact relationship you're in, or the life you actually want, not a template pulled from a book written for everyone else. Sometimes it doesn't need to be that at all. Sometimes you just need somewhere to put it down, and someone who'll actually hold it.
Fourteen years of doing this work means you're not getting a stranger with a framework, or some gross five-step system for "fixing" it. You're getting someone who remembers your whole story, who's already thinking about your specific situation before you've even finished explaining it, and who happens to have the professional experience to actually do something useful with what you tell her.
My ideal client: Individuals & Couples
You're someone who's tired of performing the palatable version of yourself, your relationship, or your lack of one. Maybe you've got a secret you've never said out loud. Maybe what you have doesn't look like what everyone assumes, and you're sick of explaining the basics before you can even get to the real conversation. Maybe you're not sure you want a romantic relationship at all, and you're tired of that being treated like a problem to solve. Maybe you just know, somewhere in your gut, that something's off, even if you can't quite name what.
You don't want a workbook. You don't want to be handed the same advice that supposedly works for everyone else. You want someone who'll actually tell you what she thinks, who'll hold your secrets properly, and who's clever enough to help you build something that fits, rather than something that's supposed to.
You might be here for one conversation to get real clarity on a single thing. You might be here for one deep, honest day that changes everything (4-hour intensive). You might be here for a few months of consistent, weekly support, not because anything's broken, but because life keeps handing you new things to work through, and you'd rather do that with someone who already knows your story than start from scratch with someone new. Whichever it is, you're exactly the right person to be here.
Three ways to work with me
ONE CONVERSATION
For the one thing sitting heavy right now. A decision, a moment, a situation you need real clarity on. Not an ongoing arrangement, just one honest, focused conversation.
Book in, then fill out a short questionnaire on what's going on before we speak, so when we sit down, we hit the ground running. No time wasted getting up to speed, 45 minutes spent entirely on the thing you actually came for.
This is also the required first step before working together longer-term (3 months), everyone starts here, then decides from there whether one conversation is enough, or something more ongoing is needed.
INVESTMENT
Individuals or Couples: $450 + GST
3 MONTHS
For when one conversation isn't enough, and you want somewhere consistent to keep coming back to. A weekly conversation, held for you, for three months straight.
Not fixed forty-five minute blocks you either use or lose, length and cadence flex with what you actually need that week, some weeks that's a proper hour, some weeks it's fifteen minutes.
Fourteen years of doing this work means you're not getting a stranger with a framework, or some gross five-step system for "fixing" it. You're getting someone who remembers your whole story, who's already thinking about your specific situation before you've even finished explaining it.
After the 3 months is up, it's your call, keep the weekly rhythm going at the same rate, or step down to a monthly check-in at the One Conversation rate.
Booking requires a completed One Conversation first.
INVESTMENT
Individuals: $2.5k + GST/month ($7.5k + GST total)
Couples: $5.5k + GST/month ($16.5k + GST total)
4-HOUR INTENSIVE
Directly bookable, no need to start anywhere else first. For when you don't need someone in your corner for months, you just need one properly long, properly honest conversation to finally untangle the thing that's been sitting in your chest for weeks.
Four hours, no distractions, no filter, in person, Mornington Peninsula/Melbourne. We start wherever it hurts and we don't stop until it makes sense.
If what you're carrying needs more than four hours, that's what the 3 Months is for.
INVESTMENT
Individuals: $3k + GST
Couples: $4.5k + GST
About me
-
There's no formula here. No program to follow, no framework to work through, no predetermined idea of what your life, business or relationship should look like on the other side.
What there is - is a completely private space where the real conversation can finally happen. I work with what you actually bring, not a sanitised version of it. I say what I see, clearly and directly. Sometimes that's uncomfortable. Usually it's a relief.
And I do it without judgment, without agenda, and without ever repeating a word of it.
-
I've worked with individuals and couples across every kind of relationship imaginable for over 14 years.
Affairs and betrayals. Relationships that exist completely outside the mainstream. Decisions that couldn't be brought anywhere else. Secrets carried for years. Shame that had never once been said out loud.
The range and depth of what I've held is what allows me to meet people exactly where they are, without flinching, without referencing a textbook, and without needing the situation to be simpler than it actually is.
This isn't a career I fell into. It's the work I was built for. And honestly? I still love it.
-
You're reading this because you want to know who you're about to trust with something you haven't told anyone else. That makes sense. I'd do the same.
So here's me, unfiltered. And I do mean unfiltered.
I can tell what someone is thinking without them opening their mouth. I've been told this is unsettling. I think it's just paying attention.
My brain works fast, notices everything, and has absolutely no interest in small talk. I'm a Taurus - I come alive at night, I love the darkness, and I find the parts of people they don't show anyone infinitely more interesting than the parts they do. Which is convenient, given what I do for a living.
I've burned my own life to the ground and rebuilt it. I don't flinch at other people's messes because I've made a few spectacular ones of my own. I joke with my clients. I swear occasionally (read: a lot). I will absolutely tell you what I actually think - kindly, directly, and without turning it into a therapy session about your childhood unless your childhood is genuinely the problem.
I'm queer, married to my wife, and a mother. Although almost two decades ago I was married to a man, and divorced. What a time. I've lived both sides of the binary most relationship advice is built around, which is probably why I don't buy into it.
I've also heard the assumption plenty of times, that being queer makes me a man-hater. It doesn't. I don't hate men, I hate patriarchy. If a woman calling out men on their shitty behaviour makes a man feel attacked, like they've stumbled into some "man-hating feminist," they're not my client. They are however part of the problem and need therapy (and if you're dating a man who hates women, you should probably reconsider).
I drink too much coffee and I take my clients' secrets to the grave. In that order of importance, obviously.
-
Confidentiality above everything. What you bring to me stays with me, always, without exception, covered by a mutual NDA as standard for those who want it.
No judgment. Ever. Not of your relationship structure, your desires, who you love or how, your business, or your situation. I don't have a predetermined idea of what a good relationship looks like and I'm not here to impose one.
Honesty over comfort. I'm not here to make you feel better about a relationship that needs to change. I'm here to tell you the truth, kindly, directly, and without softening it into something easier to receive.
Your terms. The help you get here is built around what you actually want, not what's convenient, conventional, or what someone else told you a relationship should look like.

A note on how I’m described
You may have seen me referenced in the media or on a podcast as a relationship coach, or even a relationship expert. I carried those titles proudly for fourteen years.
Since July 2026, I refer to myself as a Confidential Adviser and Strategist working specifically in relationships. Romantic. Platonic. Self. Doesn't matter which. "Coach" never quite captured what actually happens in my room, and "expert" was always a title the media gave me, one I'm genuinely grateful for, but never quite mine to claim first.
I'm not coaching you toward someone else's version of a good life or relationship. I'm advising you on what you actually want. And "confidential" isn't just a word I like the sound of, it's a promise. Whatever you bring here stays here, so you can say the real thing without calculating what it might cost you.
The title changed because of that.
