I have a shameless amount of qualifications - Around £250K worth which I realise sounds wild! I'd like to say it's that perfectionism thing, but quite honestly I'll probably never stop learning so I make no excuses...
I'm known for my transparency, and refreshing truth. I'm compassionate, kind, empathetic, sensitive...and I'm equally candid, down to earth, and apparently 'classy and cocky.' I'm a great coach, and a brilliant teacher...but don't take my word for it try me!
I've been to 78 countries and I did most of my training the hard way...ie I had to go to the place - no such ease as getting to do them while sat at home. Once it took me 3 days to get to a training...don't ask!!
So as you can imagine the world, and my path is as much my classroom as my professional training; My extensive studies inform my work steadily, and expertly, but I wholeheartedly believes it’s the success and the failures, the innovations within the challenges, and the insight, and wisdom, I’ve gained on my path, together with the clients and people who’ve touched me through connection, suffering, and joy, that t are the most transformative to my teaching and coaching….Thank You for being here.
