Mike Aheirwe
Life Coaching
I received coaching from Colin and he made me feel comfortable and relaxed to open up from the outset.
The insights I picked up from the coaching have helped me move forward with greater self awareness.
Thanks Colin

I did 6 sessions with Colin and found it a great help to focus on both my business and life goals. With work/life balance at the forefront of my thoughts Colin helped me gain this balance whilst growing my graphic design company. The rewards were more time for me and financial and stress reducing for my company. I highly recommend booking a block of sessions with Colin. More...

What do you love most about your job?
Transformations.
Helping clients get control of their monkey-minds and stop stressing!
Seeing clients get unstuck and become better at being themselves!
Seeing clients finally make the changes they'd been so desperately trying to make on their own.
Whether it's single parents finally getting the business of their dreams started or professionals increasing their business profit and scaling back on work hours to spend more time with family and friends, it's all about the massive sense of success and wellbeing my clients get.
I love it!
What inspired you to start your own business?
When I was teaching, I had some coaching. It completely transformed how I lived my life.
I wanted to be able to help others like that as well. I love teaching but the hours expand to fill as much time as I had and I thought it was time for a change.
I left full time teaching and trained to be a life-coach (Personal Performance Coach diploma at The Coaching Academy)
It just made sense to start my own business at that point.
Now I set my own hours and I'm still able to help hundreds of people!
Why should our clients choose you?
You want professionalism, but anyone can call themselves a life coach... how do you choose?
Start with someone who has a coaching qualification; a well trained coach who excels at their craft.
I recieved my Personal Performance Coaching Diploma in June of 2016 with distinction.
But getting trained only takes you so far...
You also want someone who grows and challenges themselves, as well as their clients.
You want someone with high emotional literacy to notice details in your thinking that others often miss.
You want someone who will listen; listen globally.
Someone who will challenge your thinking and inspire you to become the best you can be.
Someone who will hold you accountable to yourself.
Someone who has successfully used coaching in their own life.
You wouldn't see a dentist who doesn't believe in dentistry, who doesn't go to the dentist, would you?
I offer a vision session free of charge.
I offer a discount subscription option as well as one off sessions.
Do you want to be better at your life?
Do you want to win?
Book a complementary vision session to start making your life better than ever!
Spaces are limited and first come first serve.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Coaching is an amazing methodology because it can be done with great effect remotely.
I get my own coaching remotely, sometimes on the phone, sometimes on Zoom or FaceTime.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I only work remotely. If you live in Bristol and want coaching in person, I can do walking sessions on the Downs or some other outside location.
Coaching
Coaching is about drawing out the clients' capabilities, increasing their awareness of their thinking, capabilities and resources and their sense of responsibility for their lives.
Coaching is not teaching.
Coaching is not mentoring.
Coaching is not counselling or psychiatry.
Coaching is about helping you understand your mind, your capabilities and your life/business so that you can take the best steps to achieve your goals.
Coaching is ultimately about changing your life.
A session with me could be between 30-90 minutes, depending on what comes up.
Goals are a big component of coaching, both long-term and journey goals.
This is because goals are dreams with a deadline. They embody the change we want to see in our lives and thus offer a fantastic focus for coaching.
I can sometimes inform your understanding with anecdotes, but I won't tell you what to do or solve your problem for you, I'll help you understand what you know you need to do.
A coach sticks to the clients' agenda, not their own.
All sessions are confidential. This is a professional coaching norm and should be standard for all coaches.
