Earlier this month, I shared a private Masterclass with Clarity Coaches graduates, exploring the impact of AI, the shifts we’re all living through, and what this means for coaches, awakeners and changeworkers.

This video is a short extract from that session.

This week, I’m sharing a short clip from one of my advanced programmes on something I see as hugely important:  the hidden structure behind the words people say—and how that affects the way we listen, speak, and make an impact.

Every word you hear is pointing to something much deeper. And once that really lands, it opens up a whole new level of clarity and connection.

This week, I’m sharing a short clip from one of my advanced programmes, where we explored something that quietly shapes so much of your experience… especially when it comes to money.

For many people, money feels tricky or elusive - but often, it’s got less to do with the money itself… and everything to do with your relationship t...

This week, I’m sharing a short clip from a recent weekend of my flagship programme Clarity Certification Training, where I answered an interesting question:

“How can coaches better understand what truly motivates their potential clients?”

It’s such an important question – because they’re focusing on what the coach finds valuable themselves… rather than what really matters to the people they’re...

This week, I want to share with you a short clip from one of our recent sessions, and it’s about something I really love exploring: trusting your inner guidance.

One of the things I often find is that when people first come across this understanding, they love the idea of wisdom—that quiet voice of guidance. But a common question is, “How do I tell the difference between that and just regular thinking?”

In this 5-minute clip, I sha...

There’s a moment in nearly every breakthrough – one that’s easy to miss if you don’t know what to look for. It’s often quiet, almost invisible… but it’s where everything starts to shift.
In last night’s masterclass, I slowed things down and unpacked a recent coaching demo where one of these pivotal moments happened, and we explored:

– What I was noticing beneath the surface
– Why I asked the questions I did (including a few that mi...

Ever had one of those moments where you just know it’s time to act—no overthinking, just a deep click of certainty?

Last week, I had a coaching session with Kate, a senior HR director scaling back her corporate role to grow her coaching practice.

In just 15 minutes, we witnessed that exact moment of wisdom becoming visible right before our eyes.

Have you noticed how a coaching session can turn into a Netflix mini-series in about thirty seconds? Your client starts describing what happened, the cast of characters grows, sub-plots multiply… and before you know it, you’re as tangled in the narrative as they are. 

When we get lost in the story, it’s hard to help them find the way out.

In this week’s short clip I share the mindset shift that keeps me from being “hypnotised by th...

This week for the podcast, I’m sharing something profoundly meaningful to me - an extract from a 2020 workshop on the topic of True Identity featuring two extraordinary mentors and dear friends, Chip and Jan Chipman.

At the end of last year, I received the sad news that Chip had passed away. Chip and his wife Jan have been a profound influence in my life and understanding of the principles behind clarity. ...

I used to be terrified of speaking to groups - so much so that I once packed my company chequebook to refund everyone if I bombed!

What really makes the biggest impact – polished performance or authentic connection?

This week, I’ve got a fresh clip from a recent workshop where I answer exactly that question.
