First and foremost, I’m a coach.
Coaching is the art of uncovering what’s already inside you: the unconscious beliefs, behaviours, values, and desires that, once brought to light, shift your perspective — sometimes so profoundly that lasting change becomes not only possible, but effortless.
Coaching is where the magic happens.
That said, I also wear other hats. Sometimes, you might want a mentor — someone who’s walked the path and can share hard-won experience. Here’s a little of mine:
Business & Entrepreneurship
I launched my first company at 24 that grew to a turnover of more than 2m GBP per year, and over 30 employees which gave me the freedom to retire before I turned 40. I then realised i didn't want to be retired....
Other businesses have included a Private Investment vehicle, a pre-fabricated construction business importing into the EU from China and Turkey, and an e-commerce brand.
Health, Fitness & Endurance
I am obsessed with nutrition and cutting edge developments in health and wellness.
Completed the Three Peaks Yacht Race (as both sailor and runner), several marathons (PB: 3:42), and a few ultra-distance mountain races with over 2900m elevation gain.
Black belt in Wado-Ryu Karate
Addiction & Recovery
I have first-hand experience with addiction. That journey informs how I show up — with empathy, without judgement, and with real tools that support lasting change.
Public Speaking & Communication
I went from being terrified of standing up in front of people to genuinely enjoying speaking to groups of up to 100 people — and now I help others make the same transformation.
Family & Relationships
I’ve been married 16 years. In June 2025, we threw a three-day party with 65 of our favourite friends and family to renew our vows. We have two boys, aged 8 and 5. Family is at the core of everything I do.
All the best,
Mike
