'He is astute, kind and open…Couldn’t recommend enough!'

Richard’s sessions were fantastic. He is astute, kind and open, which allowed me to unpack and define issues. He has a natural warmth and was also able to push me to tackle difficult questions when needed. Couldn’t recommend enough!

Richard’s coaching style really worked for me. He created a very safe space that allowed me to think through the issues I wanted to tackle, and I’ve come away from the coaching with better strategies for dealing with those challenges.

'It’s been wonderful working with Richard as a coach…'

It’s been wonderful working with Richard as a coach. His patient and kind approach created a space for me to slow down and reflect on my goals and values. His coaching pushed me beyond my comfort zone in a way that felt safe and constructive. I highly recommend his coaching.

'He is probably the best listener I have ever met.'

From the outset, Richard’s approach as a coach has been one of calm and quiet confidence, a tempered kindness and a very sharp mind – he is probably the best listener I have ever met. Over the past 18 months, I have felt a profound change in myself and the way I approach problems, as well as a calm confidence and sense of self‑sufficiency which I didn’t have before. As I prepare to begin my maternity leave, I am filled with gratitude and wonderment at what an hour’s coaching every three weeks can do to a person’s psyche and the way they’d like their life to look. To anyone feeling the weight of the world, please consider working with a coach like Richard – you will feel more confident, more capable, and clearer in your own mind. As someone who values return on investment, I can wholeheartedly say my time with Richard has been worth every penny and paid dividends in every aspect of my life.
