Executive and Personal - Emotional Intelligence Coach
Coaching for the modern world
I have a saying: "There's potential for shite, and potential for insight"
The purpose of coaching is to support you to 'see' something you have never seen before and help you take steps to change elements of your life.
We navigate the world in the best way we can with what we have. In fact, you could say everyone is doing the very best they can with what is going on in their mind at that particular time. So, quite simply: I help people change what's going on in their minds, enabling them to create a different, and hopefully better reality. We don't stop there. If you really want life to change, then you have to do something differently. We must take action.
The world is filled with stress, trauma, burnout, but it is also filled with opportunity, peace, clarity and potential for success. However, these things are not for me to define. They are subjective. They are yours to figure out. I just join you along the ride.
I work like a mechanic. You wouldn't want to take your car to a mechanic and find him/her there already holding a wrench. You'd expect the mechanic to explore what's going on under the hood first, then, and only then to utilise their skills and knowlege base to support. This is why I consider myself a life long learner.

How does my coaching framework work?
Coaching is all about you. Coaching is all about powerful intentional conversations and will change based on what you need. However, the below is a rough guide.
Playful curiosity
Coaching can be serious, but it can be fun too.
Coaching can bring out laughter, tears and everything in between. It's all about powerful questions in
a light hearted and safe way.
Exploring your conditioning
Coaching is different from therapy. Therapy can be incredibly helpful. Therapy tends to hang out in the past, coaching focuses on future aspirations and goals. As part of that process, we may certainly touch upon past events to identify certain belief patterns, but coaching is about holding you to account for the future you want to design.
Working through misunderstandings
We know what we know, but what we know are not always
facts, and yet we take them as so. Our reality is created by our
personal thinking (beliefs, opinions, judgements etc...) So let's create a new reality.
Taking action
Insight is great. Inspiration is great. Dreams
are great. Goals are great. But nothing changes unless you do
something different.
You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realise this, and you will find strength.
Marcus Aurelius, meditations
