“My mission is to provide the support I never had during my career”
To realize this untapped potential requires a shift in our thinking.
We must begin to think of coaches as performers.
We must appreciate what a coaching performance entails.
We must begin to seek better coaching, not more coaching.
My 1:1 coaching focuses on your performance and wellbeing
so that you have access to your best coaching skills
when you need them the most.
My singular goal is to put strategies and structures in place
to ensure that you are not just able to give a championship performance,
but capable of building a juggernaut.
“Since the latter part of last year, I have been engaged in one-on-one coaching with Richard. My motivation for starting this proces stemmed from some challenges involving my identity and values that reached their peak last year.
At the time, I was probably still a bit burnt out from an intense five-year period in football while simultaneously working toward a PhD. Additionally, my career in sports started to feel misaligned with my changing life after the birth of my son.
Soon after I accepted a job that felt out of sync with "my identity as a coach". An identity I've pursued and held for well over a decade. This new role was much-needed work, having felt the ruthless nature of sport a few months previously. However, I needed to learn how to reconcile this new role with my "identity".
Navigating these issues was tough, especially without a clear method for examining or questioning my identity, values, and goals beyond my professional life. Moreover, I hadn’t really discussed these challenges with anyone else.
Richard has helped me achieve greater clarity about my broader purpose, values, and boundaries, most of which extend beyond my professional life. He has also provided me with useful frameworks and exercises for challenging my assumptions and thoughts. I've spent a lot of time and money in the past on CPD, but this is one of the best investments I've made in myself, the benefits of which will also impact those closest to me. Well worth considering. “
