Professional and Personal Coaching
I help people who want to disrupt the(ir) status quo.
If you are facing challenges in work then, through business coaching, I can help support you and increase your self-mastery, so you feel confident in your direction and leadership.
About James - Bristol’s Business Coach…
To know me is to know that I love people.
My absolute passion is figuring people out. Figuring out what makes them tick, their strengths, motivations and creative process. Then working to help them understand this and spend more time in their zone, making sure their goals and ambitions are sustainable without burnout along the way. (The journey of a founder is one heck of a rollercoaster ride after all!)
I offer Business Coaching, Career Coaching and Team Development – all to help you grow both professionally and personally.
I come alive when am with my clients – holding space with another person who is trying to figure their sh*t out – is when I’m most present.
What is Business / Career Coaching & What Will it Help Me Achieve?

Personally...
In my professional life, having to navigate complex and challenging situations, independently, had a huge impact on my performance.
Decision-making, direction for my team as a leader, the fear of failure and letting down loved ones compromised my enjoyment of work and really dialled up my stress levels.
This is when I first reached out and explored coaching – 16 years ago.

Working with me as a Career and Business Coach, we’ll…
Unpack where you're at
Dive into your day-to-day to understand where you’re stuck. We’ll get you going with some practices that will help you regain a sense of balance and flow in your life.
Understand and celebrate who you are
In parallel with the above, I use all the content that you bring … your hopes, fears, frustrations, past fails and successes to uncover who you are… after all “Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” -Aristotle
Unlock your future focus and take action
A session with me wouldn’t be complete without some time dedicated to the ‘what next?’. This might have a short focus to get you through the next days or it could be a 5+ year vision or the creation of a strategy that falls somewhere in-between.
The Power Behind My Career and Business Coaching…
I’ve noticed over the 8 years I’ve been coaching that there are 2 foundations that bring out the best in my clients – being present and understanding. In my experience, it is these 2 foundations that set us up for success.
The power of presence…
“The power for creating a better future is contained in the present moment: You create a good future by creating a good present.” — Eckhart Tolle
Through my coaching, we learn to harness the power of presence. Being present gets you out of your head and detached from your problems. Too often, we find ourselves stuck in our heads, and troubled by our thoughts & emotions. Being present in the moment is a true gift to give to someone (and yourself).
The art of understanding…
“Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” — Aristotle
In our sessions we deep dive into exploring who you are – When we truly understand ourselves, our strengths and weaknesses, what makes us tick, what drives us and inspires us, this helps us align authentically with our ambition and goals which ultimately gives us peace.
What’s good…
The good thing about working with me is that in parallel with working on the challenges you face in work as a founder / career-driven individual —together— we unlock problems and navigate complexity as a team, enabling us to understand who you are and gain a fresh perspective.
“I feel really privileged to be sharing that journey with such an empathetic and insightful human as James” — Nicholas Hemley (1-2-1 client)
