“THANK YOU for all the work you did with me. I feel I have grown and evolved through your amazingly empowering approach. I loved the way you held the space and made me feel safe enough to face truths with honesty, take my own power back and make life changing decisions. As I work through the many truths that are revealing themselves to me, for the first time ever I know I will manage it.”
C. Johnson. Therapist – Midlands
“There is something intuitive but penetrating about Coaching. It gets to the heart of you, it rings true, and it works. Having had coaches before I knew what I was looking for: someone who is sensitive, non-judgemental and approachable, but who could challenge me on the difficult issues, hold me to account, and be sure that I didn’t try to be evasive. You came highly recommended from people in the industry who I respect – and their respect turned out to be completely justified. I am in the middle of a challenging and exhilarating project: it’s a new business and a new direction, with an intention of reaching a huge global audience. To match such large ambitions, I felt it was essential to thoroughly ground-out doubts and self-belief by understanding much more about me, my values, core beliefs, and life purpose. It’s all been about learning to love and respect myself. I have learned to believe in my power to do great things – and that has changed everything. It’s also been about leadership, confidence and strength – I have them now, and I understand that I can live every minute of each day, acting out what I believe in. New doors appear to be opening for me, without my really trying! My new project – Planet Whale – is a global online community which will reconnect thousands of people with themselves and our natural world . . . and it goes from strength to strength. By living in my values, the business is attracting great staff, powerful sponsors, celebrity contributors, and incredibly a range of volunteers who just want to be part of something they can really believe in. You have a clear, well-organised focus that feels deliciously spontaneous, but within a caring and supportive atmosphere. It tapped in to my love of creativity, self-expression, spirituality and growth. Your sensitivity, calmness rationale and finely-tuned listening were your hallmarks during every second of our work together, yet every time it brought lively, unexpected results. I truly looked forward to every session together, and it was a joy to be dealing with powerful issues, focussing on results, yet all handled with such a light touch. I felt that I already knew a great deal about coaching, and a great deal about myself, yet I achieved more powerful results from coaching with you than I had ever imagined I could, and I love the journey I’m on! In looking back, I realize what a profound effect your coaching has on me. I’ve experienced a game-changing period in my life. Your skill to work on my potential has been so special. I now feel like a young apprentice Jedi-warrior for the human race and Mother Earth! Bring it on!”

“Nelson, you are a coaching machine!”
Dr. N. Sangwan, Intuitive Intelligence Inc. – California, USA
“I felt lost and desperate to change certain aspects of my attitudes and behaviour that had been affecting my closest relationships for some time. I’d previously tried counselling, NLP, cognitive therapy, and a Tony Robins 3-day seminar, without much of a lasting impact on me, and was wondering ‘is this it’? Having witnessed firsthand the transformation in a client of Nelson’s who recommended me to investigate coaching with him; I figured that I hadn’t got anything to lose. Life Coaching sounded different from anything else I’d experienced. Coaching with you has given me new perspectives, tools for handling situations, keeping me present, more positive and confident; feeling far more content. I had often suffered from ‘catastrophising’ much of the time, and gaining power over this has restored real clarity in my everyday life and direction, which is a wonderful feeling and has really helped nourish my inner confidence. Your approach is not only consummately professional; it’s sensitive, direct, incisive and challenging. This resulted quickly in tangible results for me. Though I have come to a conclusion in this part of my life and battled with some demons (and won!) I fully intend to have another programme of coaching with you. For now, I’m able to go forward with my life in a more assertive, positive and present way than I have for many years.”

“One of the best decisions I made at the Health Foundation was choosing Nelson as my coach. His combination of insightful questioning and well calibrated challenge helped me deal with a large number of stressful and difficult issues. His was always a supportive and understanding voice amidst the turmoil of conflicting choices.”
Colin Pink, Programme Manager, Health Foundation – London
“With Nelson as my coach I now have confidence, high self-belief and know that anything I choose to do is possible. Nelson has a gentle yet challenging approach that not only keeps you focused on what is important, but gets you into action to continually move forwards. His powerful techniques will have you move mountains in a fast, fun and fulfilling way. I would recommend Nelson to anyone wanting to create a more balanced and fulfilling work and personal life for themselves.”
T. Morris. Human Resources Manager – London
“I undertook coaching without really knowing what to expect but was determined to approach it seriously and positively. Nelson helped me to realise that I could succeed and that I could be vital and powerful in being in control over areas of my life. He introduced new ways of thinking and approaching the same old personal stuff that made sense, and he helped me to organise my thoughts and my time in order to achieve goals I had chosen for myself and to put myself as a priority in my life. Nelson gave me the power to realise and remember my own value. Thank you!”
S. Barrat. Visual Artist – Midlands
“I decided upon coaching after years of difficulties. Due to life circumstances I felt trapped, life was chaotic, making me miserable and having an impact on my health. At first, I was sceptical about coaching, looking back it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Nelson is patient, encouraging, non- judgemental, up-building, he shows genuine warmth and empathy. Nelson empowered me to make changes in my life which I would not have done without him. Problems have not disappeared but I have the strength and confidence to deal with them more appropriately. After coaching I am more assertive and the chaos is manageable rather than oppressive. Without the coaching I’d still be trapped in that chaotic groove with no hope of any positive changes. Thank you Nelson.”
J. Stanley. Senior University Lecturer – Midlands
“From your coaching I now have a new internal language that has enabled me to overcome previous negativity and self-defeating attitudes. I approach challenges from a different and more productive perspective, and consequently achieve greater success in goals that I set myself. I have gained insights and faith into my own potential and brilliance, which makes me feel as if anything is possible.”
P. Clement. – Midlands
“You are a very powerful and yet sensitive and supportive coach. Your combination of intuition, deeply probing questions and imagery helped me quickly get to the heart of matters and what was really important to me. From this new awareness it became a simple step to come up with realistic action plans and stretch myself to achieve my fulfilling goals.”
G. Deacon. Actuary – London
“You are a truly gifted coach. Thanks to your continual search for ways to move me forward I have achieved changes that I have long wished for, yet never previously been able to realise. Your skilful combination of warmth intuition and support created really empowering coaching which helped me identify what was holding me back and to take responsibility for myself and what I wanted to achieve. Your challenges and enquiries pushed, motivated and guided me, when I was ready to give up. Thank you Nelson.”
