From the bottom of my heart and soul, you have truly blessed me with the tools I needed to move forward and that is priceless. Thank you isn’t a sizeable word. It doesn’t convey the gratitude I have.
Kelly, UK
Working with Adam has been a truly life changing experience. He has given me the space and tools that are allowing me to grow into a person I am much prouder to be. Adam is a wonderful individual and you will not regret a single moment spent in his presence

Coaching Style
Adam’s style is informal, open, and warm. He incorporates humour and gentle provocation to make the experience enjoyable and productive. Adam incorporates coaching tools and exercises in his coaching, including visualisations, physical movement and guided exercises. His coaching approach draws from multiple disciplines, including positive psychology, psychotherapy and leadership development. He believes in mutual respect and trust, following your lead in creating the ideal conditions for you to do your best and freshest thinking and make progress in the areas that are important to you.
Coaching is a supportive process that helps people clarify their goals, overcome challenges and create a plan to achieve the things that matter most to them. Think of it like having a guide or a thinking partner who asks the right questions to help you figure out your next steps, rather than telling you what to do. It’s about unlocking your potential and helping you move forward with confidence and purpose.
Coaching usually happens in a series of one-on-one conversations (called sessions) with your coach. In these sessions, the coach listens, asks thought-provoking questions, and helps you explore your thoughts, feelings and ideas. You might set goals, brainstorm strategies or reflect on what’s holding you back. Coaches don’t give advice or solve your problems for you - they empower you to find your own answers. Between sessions, you take action on the steps you’ve planned and the coach holds you accountable and helps you stay on track.
Sessions last for 60 mins and can either be 'one-off' or bought in blocks of 4 or 6.
Sessions can be online via Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, on the telephone, or at my office in Beeston, Nottingham.
How often you see your coach depends on your goals, schedule and personal preferences, but most people have sessions every 2–4 weeks. This gives you time to reflect, take action and make progress between meetings.
A chemistry session is a short, introductory meeting with a coach to see if you’re a good fit to work together. It’s like a “getting-to-know-you” conversation where you can:
-
Share what you’re looking for from coaching.
-
Ask questions about the coach’s style, approach, and experience.
-
Get a sense of how comfortable and understood you feel with the coach.
It’s also a chance for the coach to explain how they work and ensure they’re the right person to support you. There’s no obligation - if it feels like a match, great! If not, that’s okay too.
