MY STORY
Professional Life Coaching
As a professional Life Coach in Dorset, I’ve always thought to hire the best coaches in my area of expertise.
This helps me be the best I can be for my clients, and truly means I walk the talk.
I’ve worked with Peter Crone, and my current coach is Michael Neill. These are coaches at the top of the game. And they drastically help me to up mine.
Someone once gave me the advice of hiring the best you can afford. That motto has served me well at becoming the best I can be.
But I wasn't always a Life Coach...
Beginnings
I’ve had some tough times. I wasn’t born privileged. Life was pretty rough growing up. I just about survived childhood having a lot of barriers in my way, little money, little support, and never having anything handed to me.
I worked hard to achieve everything I have by following my passions and interests. I excelled in the environments I put myself in, always finding myself in leadership no matter what the sector. By my early-twenties I became a successful leader in the corporate world.
It was in this role working so closely with people’s development, my passion for human performance, psychology and coaching was ignited. At this time, at age 26, I met a life coach.
The change in direction
This coach had the single biggest impact on the trajectory in my life. He truly helped me see past my limitations and he helped me discover my purpose, my passions and my dreams.
From that moment on, I wanted to do for people what he had done for me, (but I’ll come back to that later).
My coach helped me see past my fears and self-doubt, my fake confidence, and my mind-made obstacles.
And so, I went for my dream.
At this time I wanted to train as a Psychologist and be the first in my family to go to university.
The first step was getting on a degree programme in Psychology, but my application was declined at university.
The thing was though, I had a fire in my belly, and I knew this was what I was supposed to do. I called them up and explained to them that I had never been surer of anything in my life. I told them that I would be top of their class and would be their best student.
They heard me. And they let me on the programme...
10 years in the NHS, Senior Lecturer in Psychology
Three years later, I graduated top of the class in Psychology. They even offered me to do a PhD.
I studied everything I could get my hands on. Every therapy out there, mindfulness, spirituality, coaching, you name it. If it’s in the field of human development then I’ve got the t-shirt. All so that I could get the best from myself, and others. And that’s what I do now.
I want to help you live the best life you can.
I went from someone who was unhappy, anxious and insecure, to joyful, inspired, and confident. I became a man that I am proud of. I became an expert in human potential. Now I really get how life works.
I don’t tell you this to brag. I tell you this because I want you to see what change is possible.
Now I do for people what that coach did for me. I spent 10 years in the NHS in senior positions, and worked as a Senior Lecturer teaching psychology on a professional masters programme for mature students. You won't find anyone more qualified than me to understand how your mind works. Plus, I really do walk the talk...
Fall in love with life
I don’t want you to just survive, I want you to thrive.
As well as a lifetime of personal growth and transformation, my qualifications back up my words:
I actually think the thing that qualifies me the most, is that I've created a life that I'm in love with. I'm guessing you want the same.
My coaching works. I deliver life coaching in person in Dorset, and online anywhere in the world.
My clients work with me from anything from a day intensive, up to a year. If we’re going to be working together for that amount of time, then we’re both going to want to make sure we are a good fit.
