James, Consultant, Manchester

"Before I had coaching with Simon I was feeling unclear on my future goals & how I would be able to fully commit to making those happen. I would have a lot of ambition but struggle to put this into action.

The challenge I was facing was a fear of failure. This is something I had not realised until working through it with Simon. I learnt that the reason I had never failed at anything was because I had never truly tried. This led to procrastination and then moving on to another loosely shaped goal.

Simon supported me by giving me the space to talk & explore my own thoughts, supporting me when needed & also providing that crucial challenge. Outside of the sessions, he would be available to message & actively encouraged me to check in with him throughout the process.

Throughout the journey, I learned a lot about myself, things that I never expected to learn. Simon made this happen by digging beyond the surface area and finding real reasons for my actions.

Now I feel like I have a lot more clarity in my goals & crucially I feel more determined than ever to make them happen. I now commit regular time to my goals, watch less TV & work on myself. I know this will pay dividends in the future and I know my time with Simon has pushed my development on 10X faster than I could have ever managed alone."
