Hi, I'm Simon.

My mission is to empower millions to live healthy, balanced, and fulfilling lives through coaching, speaking, and writing.

I've changed careers, founded businesses, tried most things once and travelled the world.


For much of my life, I was caught up in the hustle, unable to sit still or fully appreciate what I had. I constantly worked towards the next goal, trying to do it all.


In 2019, I took 14 months out to travel the world. I stopped for the first time in over a decade. Since then, I've followed my passion for personal development and psychology, bringing me here.


I help driven people like you (and me) learn to find a balance in life so they can thrive. Life gets really exciting when you can work towards your goals while feeling happy, healthy, and fulfilled in the present moment! 


I'm certified by the International Coaching Federation.


Hi, I'm Simon.

My mission is to empower millions to live healthy, balanced, and fulfilling lives through coaching, speaking, and writing. 

What qualifies me to help you?

I've always been fascinated by human behaviour.


I've studied and trained in NLP, CBT, transformational coaching, positive psychology, personality profiling, philosophy and the principles of success and happiness.


I've progressed through sales and leadership roles, founded businesses and changed career.


For much of my life, I was caught up in the hustle, unable to sit still or fully appreciate what I had. I constantly worked towards the next goal, trying to do it all.


In 2019, I took 14 months out to travel the world. I stopped for the first time in over a decade. Unburdened by the distractions of a job and 'normal life', I experienced greater clarity and learned the true value of being present.


I became determined to follow my purpose: to use my passion, skills, and experience to help people live their best lives. 


When I began coaching in 2020, I realised how many motivated people also struggle to guiltlessly switch off and find a balance between work and life. 


Since then, I've been empowering driven people like you (and me) to find a balance in life so they can thrive. My clients define what success means to them, and then they create it.


Life gets really exciting when you can work towards your goals while feeling happy, healthy, and fulfilled in the present moment!

Here's a clip of me on the Purpose People Podcast talking about my journey.

My Life

As well as psychology and coaching I love learning new things and being active. To name a few: diving, surfing, snowboarding, motorcycling, juggling, spinning fire staffs, hiking, tennis, swimming, cycling, climbing and photography.


Some of my projects, travels and adventures:

  • Rode a motorbike to the top of the Atlas Mountains, Morocco
  • Co-founded a social enterprise business based in Nairobi
  • Volunteered on the Cruse Bereavement Care helpline
  • Completed the Three Peaks Challenge (twice)
  • Restored a 400-year-old barn with my Dad
  • Travelled around the world for 14-months
  • Motorcycled around Northern Ireland
  • Drove the length of Australia
  • Cycled Southern Ireland
  • Backpacked Sri Lanka
  • Built a house in Kenya


After living in London for 12 years (with breaks to travel), I moved to Bristol in 2022 for a more balanced lifestyle. 


It was here I met the love of my life, my soul-mate and fiancé, Katie.


We share many attitudes and interests - lovers of music, adventure, the outdoors and optimism. As well as discovering, cooking (and eating) delicious food.


In September 2023 we moved out of our home in central Bristol and spent 2 months travelling and working remotely from Montenegro, Albania, Croatia and Greece.


We now live in Frampton Cotterell, just north of Bristol.

Philosophies, Values & Beliefs

I believe that we have a duty to make the most of our lives and all the opportunities and gifts we are blessed with. To me, making the most of life means living consciously, and appreciating what we have while seeking to grow and contribute to the world in meaningful ways.


My three key values are integrity, growth and kindness. Aligning all my actions and decisions to them ensures that I'm being the person I want to be and living the life I believe in.


Society today leads us to define our success by wealth and professional achievements. But to be truly successful, we have to look at life more holistically:


When you prioritise your health, meaningful relationships, passions and hobbies, fun and adventure, you will be happier and more successful than you ever imagined.   


Life is happening right now - we get one shot at it, which is why we need to find the courage and determination to prioritise the things that are really important to us and build them into our lives.

 

Five beliefs that help me live a very healthy, balanced and fulfilling life:

  1. Everything’s a matter of perspective; choose perspectives that benefit you
  2. Rather than criticising others, see what you can learn from them
  3. The harder something is to do, the more you will gain from doing it
  4. Always seek win-win outcomes - benefit yourself and others
  5. Focus on working smarter, not harder
