About Me

My background

Before creating my coaching business, I was co-founder and director of an I.T. company.

With my business partners, we developed the business from zero to an annual 8-figure turnover and created jobs for more than 30 people.

This all sounds ‘rosy’ but I experienced tough times as well:

I struggled with high-levels of stress; had to manage challenging business problems; deal with problems in my personal life and on top of that I had to ensure that the business revenue and profit increased year on year.

Years ago, I was not in a good place: I was going through divorce, working very hours, stressed and 'burnt-out'.

I had always been confident and was able to make decisions easily, but I found that my confidence and energy had dropped. I struggled to get motivated and I couldn't see a bright future for myself or my business.

I knew I couldn't continue like that.

A close friend suggested that I hire a coach to help me. So I did, I found a coach, purchased a coaching programme and worked closely with my coach over the next few months.

Through the coaching process I became more confident, resourceful, focused and happier than I had ever been before.

My energy increased and I was able to create solutions to the challenges that I faced. I resolved each of the challenges.

I also created a vision for my life, which included a growth strategy for my I.T. business; an exit strategy from my I.T business and a plan to make an impact in other peoples' lives through coaching.

With my renewed focus, resourcefulness, and energy, my business partners and I developed the business to an annual 8-figure turnover.

Our customers were some of the largest companies in the UK and we won business awards.

I've had the privilege of:

> Creating a Business

> Working with Business Partners

> Expanding the business into new markets

> Winning large contracts

> Delivering excellent service to customers

> Winning business awards

> Preparing the business for acquisition, then selling the business

Although I am proud of this, I am most proud of the ‘rock bottoms’ that I turned around in my business and personal life.

Times when people around me didn’t think it was possible.

I found my way to break-through each of the challenges that I faced and create new possibilities for me, my family and my businesses.

I learnt that much of what holds us back comes from how we see the world, so I learned to see things differently.

My journey helps me to appreciate how fun, but also how tough it can be to run a business.

Years later, I still regularly review and update my 5-year vision. For me, it's a proven process to guide my life in the direction that's important to me.

It's enabled me to become a certified Executive Coach and to help people define their vision; over-come challenges that they face and ultimately make their vision real.
