Power Coaching Sessions- What Happens?
Mar 27th
What is a Power Coaching Session? My Power Coaching Sessions are all about finding a rapid solution or way forward to a particular problem you may have. It doesn’t matter what this problem is, or the topic it is about. The intuitive way I work means that I can help you move forward. Some people…
When things go wrong – Dealing with Problems
Sep 22nd
Today I was raring to go with a packed to-do list. Determined and motivated to achieve. However my day has already gone off-piste due to two exploding coffee pods – yes two! How did that happen? Anyway I really did fancy my coffee so the coffee explosion needed to be cleaned up and those coffee…
Working from your kitchen table
Sep 22nd
Many years ago working at home and from your spare room or kitchen table was seen negatively almost like you had to be in an office space to be actually working. People working at home used to even pretend they were working from the office. All is good until the dog barks! Thankfully these days…
Dream Big, Smart Action, Start Small
Sep 22nd
I often coach people who want to start a business or have just taken the plunge. Starting with big dreams and then realising that business is not as easy as it seems. When I started my business on a shoestring I was given some great advice, “Don’t spend money you haven’t got.” Of course there…
Have you ever gone against what is considered to be good practice? Broken the rules?
Sep 22nd
When I as a start-up sole trader 10 years ago I spent a silly amount of time creating a business plan because I was told by someone it would be a good idea and it was good practice. As I filled it in I felt like it was a paperwork exercise. I was filling in…
What key lessons have you learnt in business?
Sep 22nd
10 years ago when I was setting up my coaching and training business I had ideas about how this business was going to be successful. But it wasn’t how I thought it would be. What was successful and what didn’t work wasn’t what I mapped out in my business plan. In fact my business plan…
Truths that hurt or platitudes that heal?

Feedback Rules Doesn’t It?
Sep 22nd
You want feedback, you ask for it but little comes back? Or what comes back is platitudes or only from the most verbal people. So how do you get real useful feedback from all sorts of people? We all know that feedback can be useful. Even if you hear stuff you don’t want to you…
Stop Being Judgemental, I hate it!
Aug 2nd
Have you ever been told you are too judgemental? Have you met others who are judgemental? It’s not nice is it? And being judgemental is not seen as being a good thing. Having said that we are all full of judgements developed through childhood, our families, our culture, our values and our experiences. Sometimes…
Lack of self-awareness or too much self-doubt?
Jul 24th
I find coaching easy and natural. And over the last 20 years I’ve coached hundreds of people and my belief is that coaching people is essentially around either a lack of self-awareness or too much self-doubt, and sometimes both. Think about it…. • The person who is highly qualified suddenly finds that another person…
High functioning good performer with a secret?
Jul 22nd
Do you know a high functioning good performing person who you suspect hides a secret? This is surprisingly much more common than anyone ever realises and it is something I see many clients reveal in coaching sessions. The common hidden problems I hear a lot about from clients are… · Depression · Anxiety · Eating…
