Making it simple for men to empower themselves

DESERVE TO SERVE

All MEN Deserve Support so they can Serve

Men have been conditioned to play small
There are simple ways to grow and empower yourself
Men Work better and Feel better in Community, in BROTHERHOOD

We believe most men:

Had ‘poor’ fathering (absent physically and/or emotionally)
Do not know their purpose (needed for longevity)
Are not clear on their role as 'a man', after the much needed ‘rise of women’
Do not have deep regular engagement with male friends (also needed for longevity)
Are not fulfilling their potential / playing small / struggling at some level (living like driving with the handbrake on)

I am a personal Coach helping men with Empowerment and more.

My aim is to enable my clients to become more empowered and fulfilled. My coaching clients are mainly settled, mature men.

My clients are actively seeking ways to work on themselves and their relationships.

I look forward to helping you revisit what it means to be a ‘man’, especially in light of today's complex and confusing messages about gender, families and relationships.

They say I am a charismatic, well-rounded, widely-travelled and vocationally-experienced gentleman, who also has more than a few scars (physical and emotional) to show for an intensely-lived life. After earning a management degree from the London School of Economics (LSE), I founded a highly-successful UK charity to aid development and skills-building in Africa. I am heading up an accelerator for social impact investing in Asia.

In my personal Coaching, I utilise a decades-deep understanding of ancient Asian practices which aim to connect mind, body and soul. I am also an accomplished sailor, yachtsman, off-piste snowboarder and cyclist, and an expert practitioner/instructor of Tai Chi and Taoist arts, including Longevity Breathing.

I am a beginner in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, kite-surfing and Callisthenics.

I am a course and book ‘junkie’ (frankly, and as all my friends know), and am distilling wisdom from a great many experts in different areas
