Something you may not know about me is that I’m an identical twin. No matter people’s age, sex, background or personality, they usually can’t resist asking what it’s like having an identical other half. The benefits are numerous and link closely with why coaching can be so powerful.
Someone who listens non-judgmentally;
understands your map of the world; and
provides objectivity at key turning points – much like coaching.

create an action plan which really works; and
transform your life, whether personal, professional or otherwise.
It starts with understanding and it ends with change —
— which is why this simple formula forms the basis of my business today.
