About Julian

I specialise in helping people just like you overcome the obstacles keeping them from accomplishing their goals and dreams. You can read more about me by clicking the link below:

Learn more about me

Personal life coaching is the process of facilitating positive change in order to maximize personal potential. We focus on where you are now, where you want to be and what you will do to get there, rather than on analyzing the past. By setting goals and developing strategies, coaching will help you to define solutions and to take the committed action required to reach your goals.

Clarity, fulfillment and results. Coaching is about improving the results an individual is creating. And about providing an important counterbalance to the many pressures we put upon ourselves: whatever our level.

With the support of a coach, we make clearer judgements, learn more from experiences, make better choices, act more decisively and take more effective and purposeful action. We begin to focus on what’s really of importance to us; and to shape what we do to align with those values.

Coaching is about forward momentum and helping people to achieve their goals. The focus of coaching is on creating and maintaining motivation for change; exploring and overcoming obstacles; and taking action to reach goals.

  COACHING THERAPY
Focus Action Understanding and action
Depth Looks at patterns and behaviour in the here and now, looking to future behaviour to change these patterns. Looks at patterns and behaviour in the here and now, looking to future behaviour to change these patterns. Plus looks at greater depth into cause of behaviour to allow the root of stubborn patterns to be understood and changed.
Location/time Can vary, including phone, internet and in-person sessions. Same place and time.

Counselling is about the present and the past, with a focus on helping people to address and resolve deeper emotional issues.

In your first coaching session I will talk you through the coaching process and will give you the opportunity to raise any questions that you may have.

We then spend the majority of the session working towards the definition of your primary goals. By putting time and focus into your goals upfront, we ensure that the coaching process is solution focused and that you have a motivating force to work towards.

Yes, coaching does work; but like everything, it has its limits. Coaching is not a panacea: powerful, yes; but the answer to everything, no.

So, what are those limits? Well, perhaps I can ask: when you’re at your most energized, motivated, liberated and inspired, what’re the limits to what you might achieve?

A final caveat: the client has to want this. The essence of coaching is drawing-out solutions from a high-performing mind. If that mind doesn’t want to cooperate, coaching won’t work.

Yes, coaching is worth the investment — assuming you and your coach have set the right goals and that you’re prepared to work hard at them.

Although we may not often think or feel it, we’re constantly spending time, money and effort to progress and advance, often adopting ad hoc and unchanging strategies along the way — and with minimal care or thought.

Coaching will marshal those investments, aligning them and you with your highest values, getting you to your goals faster and achieving a bigger version of the result.

No. On the contrary, coaching gets results fast. And one of my great (and, I’m pleased to say, regular) delights in coaching is clients seeing results sooner than expected.

My longer coaching programs can run for anything up to 12 weeks in order to progress big goals. But clients see results every step of the way: from the outset; throughout; and long after we have finished working together.

Employing a life coach / mental health first aider for employees can bring several benefits to your business:

1. Enhanced Employee Performance: Life coaching helps employees identify strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement, leading to enhanced performance and productivity.

2. Improved Team Dynamics: Life coaching fosters better communication and collaboration among team members, contributing to a positive and harmonious work environment.

3. Increased Employee Engagement: Employees who receive life coaching often feel more engaged with their work, leading to higher job satisfaction and reduced turnover.

4. Effective Leadership Development: Life coaching can be tailored to develop leadership skills, creating a pool of capable leaders within the organization.

5. Goal Alignment: Aligning personal and professional goals through life coaching ensures that employees are motivated and focused on achieving both individual and organizational objectives.

6. Reduced Absenteeism: Early intervention and support for mental health concerns can reduce absenteeism and help employees manage their mental health effectively.

7. Enhanced Workplace Well-being: A mental health first aider promotes a culture of well-being, contributing to a positive work environment and reducing stress levels among employees.

8. Increased Productivity: By addressing mental health challenges promptly, employees can maintain optimal productivity, positively impacting the overall success of the business.

9. Retention and Recruitment: Companies that prioritize mental health are more attractive to potential hires and experience higher employee retention rates.

10. Legal and Ethical Compliance: Having mental health first aiders demonstrates a commitment to legal and ethical obligations regarding employee well-being, contributing to a positive corporate image.

By investing in the well-being of employees through life coaching and mental health first aid, businesses create a supportive culture that not only benefits individual employees but also contributes to the overall success and sustainability of the organisation.

How I suggest we start…

1
Get in touch

I suggest that you book a 30 min free Initial Consultation, face to face in Oxfordshire or Video call over FaceTime / WhatsApp.

2
Initial session

During this session we will discuss your situation and goals, I will answer questions that you have about coaching and together we will explore whether coaching could help you. At the end of the session, we can decide whether we are a good fit for each other and which coaching / mentorship program would be best for you.

3
If you decide to proceed…

If we decide to work together, you can then purchase a monthly coaching session with the option to top-up hours as and when needed.
