After 20 years in sports broadcasting, Kent Johns hit burnout. The fast-paced world he loved had drained his health — pushing him to make a life-changing shift. Today, he’s one of a kind: New Zealand’s only former sports broadcaster turned health and mental wellbeing coach.

Motivational Speaking
We used Kent as a key speaker at our annual Team Day (38 people), with a focus on health and wellbeing. Kent was great! He was engaging, informative and inspirational.
Both Kent and his superpower (Laura) were fantastic to deal with. We highly recommend Kent!

I’ve used Kent's coaching services personally and also engaged him to do a corporate seminar for our leadership team. Kent is a legend - fantastic no nonsense advice and guidance. The personal sessions are highly effective and the group presentation was also the highlight of the day at our conference. I highly recommend you get in touch with Kent if you want to elevate the health and wellbeing of yourself or your team.- Jeremy Spicer, Group GM, Andrew Simms More...

Kent spoke at one of our legal leaders events in NZ and he was amazing. His presentation on mental health and the topic of thriving not just surviving was so well delivered, with practical take aways. I would recommend him to anyone!
David Lile
We were looking for a speaker for our annual conference to talk to our network on heath, wellbeing and essentially focusing on understanding the factors of looking after themselves but in a straight up and engaging way.
Kents presentation was on point and his personal reflection was exactly what we were after, entertaining, engaging, factual and connected well to the diverse audience.
Working with Kent is very easy, he listens to what you’re wanting to do and leaves an immediate impact on his messaging, strongly recommend him for large events and will have him back again.

Kent gave a presentation to our team of around 100 employees. He was great to deal with and structured the presentation to fit our requirements.
The team gave great feedback on the talk and have found some of the tips provided really useful.
Would definitely get Kent back in for future events.

What do you love most about your job?
This one is easy... Seeing people proud of themselves after being courageous to make lifestyle changes and seeing the profound success from their self-driven actions.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was really struggling for a very long time, and with hindsight I now know I was completely burned out. I made an effort to change my diet and the positive effects were enormous (and in such a short time too).
I figured 'If this works for me it must work for others too'. I have plenty to share about my own ups and downs in life, but know with the right tools we all own the power to make positive change in our life.
Why should our clients choose you?
I like to think I am empathetic to personal situations. I am curious (in a non-judgemental way) to hear someone's story and like to help people identify with their values and then determine the actions that will help them to stay aligned with them (values-driven action).
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yes I can. I offer coaching and workshops and presentations online, as well as in-person.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I am flexible and can coach over the phone or remotely via Teams/ Zoom etc.
