At Eldarmind, the premise is that every person and organisation can live from their highest mind. Drawing on neuroscience, family systems, and the great myths—including Tolkien’s vision of the Eldar who sought wisdom and beauty—we help leaders, families, and teams step into expansive growth. Our consulting and coaching integrates science and story, clarity and creativity, all in a Christ-centred synthesis. We walk alongside you to form a living narrative of purpose: where faith and wisdom guide action, where relationships thrive, and where the light of Jesus animates the mind to wonder, courage, and transformation.
With over 30 years of senior and executive leadership experience across banking, not-for-profit, hospitality, and religious sectors, Daz brings a rare blend of insight, passion, and creativity. His approach is shaped by a deep commitment to helping others flourish according to their original design—becoming the truest expression of their eternal selves. Drawing from both professional expertise and spiritual wisdom, Daz walks alongside individuals and groups to unlock potential, foster resilience, and guide transformation that is purposeful, authentic, and life-giving.
Eldarmind draws on the enduring wisdom of the 3rd–4th century 'Desert Mothers and Fathers', integrating their contemplative insights with the latest developments in systems thinking and relational neuroscience. This synthesis provides a grounded yet highly creative framework for growth. Each engagement is tailored—shaped to the unique needs, stories, and goals of the person, family, or group. The result is an approach that honours ancient spiritual practices while applying the best of contemporary science, enabling deep transformation that is both practical and life-giving.
“We are always taken by the devoted attention Daz gives to anyone who is conversing with him. He is not someone to get distracted but looks to be deeply pondering everything you say. We always walk away feeling listened to, really listened to.” - Jason And Kelly Hayduck, Senior Pastors, 2025
“During his term, Daz has brought incredible energy to his role – leading with dedication and discernment, with spiritual insight and relational authenticity, and by consistently calling our leaders and churches to the highest vision of God’s desire for restoration.” - Emily Drough, President/Board Chair, 2025
“I’ve appreciated Daz’s posture towards relationship rather than pragmatism. Whether we were discussing the cofC Ethos statements or the theology of responsible investing, his concern so often was for the people that would be impacted by a decision rather than just the decision itself.” - Alsadair MacDougall, Senior Minister, 2025
“Daz’s posture toward vulnerability and humility, coupled with his tendency toward deep reflection and theological acumen, has impacted me so profoundly. I have always appreciated his ability to draw out deeper truths, in the midst of times of uncertainty, gravity or frivolity.” - Ross Stewart, Safe Ministry Practices Leader, 2025
"Our guys were ready to be challenged and informed and Daz Farrell and Mat Teakle did just that. They were biblical, humble and informative. At the end of our day training with them we had organised a Christmas lunch for the homeless and began a set of prayers about our long-term engagement with the homeless in our city. That works! " - Justin Moffat, Senior Minister, 2011
"I have great pleasure in announcing that Darren Farrell has accepted the position of Team Leader, Parish Partnership Ministry. Darren brings to this position a passion for the Gospel and ANGLICARE, a wealth of experience, expertise and innovative thinking and a commitment to working with fellow colleagues in this important area." - Peter Kell, Former CEO, Anglicare, 2008
“Daz has a great brain, so much going on up there, we often have trouble keeping up with the wisdom and knowledge that flows from it. Daz leads with gentle wisdom, not a wisdom that makes you feel small but draws you in and builds you up.” - Jason and Kelly Hayduck, Senior Pastors, 2025
“I’ve have always been impressed by Daz’s eagerness to think deeply about what he’s engaging in. As we’ve talked and walked together on a number of projects, I’ve known Daz to be intentional and purposeful in his approach, yet to also couple that with a deep desire for God’s wisdom.” - Alasdair McDougall, Senior Minister, 2025
