Hi, I would like to take a few minutes to tell you how I became a Coach.

It started when I was about 15 years old. I was always wondering about how life could be better, about becoming a master of my own destiny. How could I be successful, how could I help others change their life too? I was given some books by an uncle to read, two of which were "Think and grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill and "The Winners Edge" by Dr Denis Waitley. Although at the time I didn't realise, but they were moulding my thinking and consequently my destiny. I became increasingly interested in human potential, life success and so in my career path I always aimed as high as I could, getting promoted to Leadership or Management level, inspiring, motivating and coaching my team(s) and positively making a difference in the organisation(s)

It was about a decade later that I thought more deeply about what I wanted to do and how I could contribute. I didn't know about Coaching at the time and it was still few years later that I was actually introduced to it and had the opportunity to go on a course to becoming a Life Coach. I have been totally committed to my learning and growth and have read over 100 books, been on excellent courses to develop my skills and now I am in the process of becoming accredited and completing the Advanced Diploma in Coaching. By Coaching I am living my dream of helping others change their life for the better, one person at a time. I have had my successes and experienced failures, but I have learned from them and have used that to catapult me to live a life that I want to live.

My client portfolio reaches as far as Australia, Egypt and Spain. I have worked with individuals from different backgrounds and professions and pride myself on building my coaching practice mainly on recommendations and referrals. I believe I offer excellent service to my clients and where appropriate I go that extra mile. I often use my coaching techniques and tools in my own life and the positive results are evident.

I am that passionate about coaching that often I give some coaching for free to charities that could really benefit from my service.

Finally, if you are seeking a Coach to help you change your life or an area in your life, you've made the right decision. Coaching is like a catalyst for your Business Goals and Life Goals, it is future orientated; it does not help directly with problems in the past but is mainly about getting you from where you are currently, to your new desirable destination. There are many qualified coaches out there, do your research and go with the one that sits right with you and your dreams, after all it's your life.

I wish you all the very best in your decision and your new life and hope that I can be the Coach that helps release your potential.
