I help people who want to disrupt the(ir) status quo.

What it's like working with me

When you step into a coaching session with me, you’re not just working with a coach, you’re partnering with someone who is deeply invested in your growth.

Whether you’re navigating professional hurdles, team dynamics, or personal challenges, my approach is tailored to meet you where you are, with strategy, empathy, clarity, and a focus on lasting transformation.

I have recorded a video, which you can find on this page, about what it’s like to work with me, and how to reach out.

A safe, supportive space.

I understand that reaching out for help isn’t always easy, especially if you’re dealing with low confidence, neurodivergence, or feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands. My sessions are designed to create space, balance and get you back in step with your intrinsic motivation.

A Collaborative Journey Built on Trust

I view coaching as a partnership built on trust, mutual respect, and open communication. I take the time to figure out who you are, helping you see yourself more clearly and do more of what already works for you. By understanding your unique needs and values, I work alongside you to co-create strategies that feel authentic and achievable. Involving you in the process every step of the way, ensureing that your growth is sustainable and aligned with your long-term vision.

Neurodiverse-Friendly Coaching

Recognising that everyone processes information differently, I adapt my coaching to fit neurodivergent needs, including those with ADHD, autism, or other conditions. Whether through breaking down goals into manageable steps, offering alternative communication methods, or using creative tools like LEGO Serious Play, I ensure that the coaching process is accessible, engaging, and effective for every individual.

Confidence Building

If self-doubt, fear, or shame is holding you back, I will work with you to rebuild your confidence one step at a time. Focusing on small, actionable wins that gradually lead to significant breakthroughs. It’s my job to help you establish meaningful goals—ones that feel right for you, rather than forcing you to fit into a predefined plan. My supportive guidance helps you see your potential, empowering you to take bold steps toward your professional and personal growth with greater self-assurance.

“James came highly recommended as a coach from a number of people that I respect and I'm so glad that I took the plunge. Despite not having done coaching before - it's proven to be a very rewarding process. James is incredibly passionate about finding ways to help support entrepreneurs with the rollercoaster that is startup life. He has a rare combination of adaptability, empathy, focus and intensity that makes every session distinct, beneficial and interesting. I wish I'd started coaching earlier and would highly recommend others invest in their personal growth. If you do, be sure to look James up.”

Neef RehmanCreative Technologist at ustwo

“James listens and then feeds back in a succinct and helpful way but more than this he asks the questions with real care and at the right time that move me forwards. And the best part is that he gives me space to really think about it. The lights came on during our session!”

Had ArmitsteaLeadership & Change Management

“James has been invaluable in helping me to realise my skills and focus my energy at a time when I was struggling to see the wood for the trees. He is knowledgable and motivating, with a relevant case study, book, quote or reference to hand for any situation. Working with James has been a pleasure, and of great benefit to my mindset holistically, both in and outside of work. Particularly through the pandemic, James has been an invaluable source of consistency, balance and buoyancy, for which I'm very grateful.”
