What do you love most about your job?
The thing I love most about my job is knowing that I am making a difference in people's lives. This makes me feel more powerful and happy.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was lost after finishing my Masters. I was facing a great deal of uncertainty as prior to this I had always knew what the next step was. As well as that I was facing personal problems after losing contact with a close friend. It was a combination of things that made me hit rock bottom, but unlike most people I have always believed in myself and the future. Although feeling very low, I was determined to make something of myself, and unlike most people I was not afraid of what anyone else thought. Since being young I have been very independent, particularly mentally. I was quite a lonely lad growing up and so even though I have friends, I have never relied on them or on relationships to gain confidence, that is always something I have seen as being my responsibility. Down the years I have failed to do things I wanted out of fear, and it is experiences like losing a close friend, being in a car crash, and breaking my leg that has made me realise that life is to short to live it in fear.
Why should our clients choose you?
I believe that the best coaches have a great deal of personal integrity. I like to think that I walk my talk. Although my life is far from perfect, I am very open with my clients about my own personal struggles, and continuously work on my own life to make sure that I am in a great place for my clients. Another strength of mine is my flexibility, having coached in the US, different ages (children and adults), different social backgrounds, I feel I am able to build rapport with lots of different people. Lastly I am very young and hungry, because of this I am very serious about helping people to reach their goals. Although I believe the client must want to progress themselves, I think a coach that points out when a client is slacking, is much more likely to be effective. Overall I think it is my person principles that make me the coach I am.
Sports Coaching
With a wealth of experience in the coaching industry I am eager to offer my services as a 1-2-1 or small group football coach. In my sessions I adopt a psychological approach with the emphasis being on independent learning and decision making. This approach goes alongside technical training with fitness built in. I aim to make my sessions fun, as I believe this increases learning.
Business Coaching
I am hugely passionate about helping ethical businesses to thrive, particularly those within the sports industry. I help my clients to become better at planning and growing their business. Some of this comes down to time management, ensuring they have a good work-life balance, but also strategy for utilising the time they do have in their business as effectively as possible.
Life Coaching
This service is aimed at people that are wanting to improve in other areas of their life. Perhaps they feel unfulfilled in the work or relationships and they are looking for someone to guide them towards a better path. Having been a coach for 8 years in the sport industry I have honed my coaching skills. I have always believed the best way to coach people is to empower them in the process, asking them questions and increasing their self awareness. Something I have learnt in the last couple of years is how to be more vulnerable. Emotional awareness is key to any sustainable changes in people's lives. Through being vulnerable in our sessions, I encourage clients to connect with their heart, whilst using their head to guide them. It is this connection between head and heart that means that my coaching not only helps people to be more successful, but also to get more joy and happiness out of that success.
