“Jim is exceptionally dedicated to the people he works with”
“inspiring others to achieve their true potential”
I'm a full-time Coach and Consultant, and my work is built on a foundation of professional excellence and deep personal commitment.
I am trained with the ICF-accredited Optimus Coaching Academy. I’m also a Chartered Manager and hold an MSc in Senior Leadership. My passion is supporting people to find fundamental harmony in their life, empowering them to create a coherent future.
I coach from the simple belief that you are not separate from the world - you are a living part of it. Just like a plant needs healthy soil, your happiness and clarity come directly from the systems around you, and the systems within you.
I bring my whole self to this work, leveraging my career in Senior Leadership and Consultancy to tackle professional challenges. I also bring profound personal experiences, particularly around the infertility journey. I believe we can all develop meaning, purpose, and a deeper sense of belonging and connection. My guidance will help you find the answers you seek and discover the best version of yourself.

“I have grown not only professionally but also personally”
I'm a husband, parent, and 'pawrent,' who balances life by cycling, running, and playing the drums. My personal interests in philosophy, psychology, wellbeing, and meditation aren't separate from my work - they are its foundation.
I'm a people-focussed coach and consultant with extensive professional experience across leadership, change management, transformation, and technology. This is all underpinned by effective communication, a positive attitude, and a good sense of humour.
Philokosmia - The Philosophy of Connection and Relationship
My coaching philosophy is simple yet powerful: You have more control, agency, and influence over your future than you think.
I facilitate Coherence Coaching to support you to find harmony between the most important notes in your life. You realise what might be out of tune and draining your energy (e.g. habits, messy routines, pointless commitments) and put that energy back into the things that genuinely make you feel alive, creative, and wise.
This isn't just about feeling good; it’s about becoming a powerful, positive force in your life. I aim to guide you to move from feeling overwhelmed or disorderly to becoming an agent of your future with order and purpose. Your personal success naturally gives to your community making our world a better, more harmonious place too.
