What this is
This is a private, one-to-one decisional session.
It is designed to:
identify the real constraint beneath surface confusion
interrupt circular thinking and false dilemmas
narrow options until a clear decision remains
lock that decision before the session ends
The session is focused, contained, and finite.
It ends with clarity or an explicit choice not to decide.Both outcomes restore agency.
What this is not
This is not:
coaching
therapy
mentoring
a discovery call
ongoing support
There is no audience.
There is no programme pitch.
There is no emotional processing for its own sake.
If you are looking for encouragement, reassurance, or motivation, this is not the right place.
Choose one purpose
Before booking, you must choose one purpose:
-
Decide whether your current focus should be narrowed, changed, or dropped entirely
-
Identify the single constraint preventing forward momentum right now
-
Choose what must become non-negotiable for the next 90 days
-
Decide whether you are avoiding action or protecting capacity — and act accordingly
-
Clarify which path you are committing to, and which options you are closing
-
Identify what you are tolerating that is quietly undermining progress
-
Reduce cognitive noise to one clear priority you can execute immediately
Boundary line (do not skip this)
If you cannot choose one purpose, do not book.
This session is designed for people ready to stop circling.

How the session works
-
You choose one purpose before booking
This defines the scope of the session. We do not work on multiple issues. -
You complete a short written intake
This clarifies the decision you’ve been circling and prevents time being wasted in the session. -
We meet privately for 60 minutes
The session is focused and time-bound. You may be interrupted for clarity. -
The real constraint is identified
Not the story. Not the surface problem. The actual point of friction. -
Options are narrowed until a decision remains
Circular thinking is collapsed. False dilemmas are removed. -
The session ends with a decision
Either a clear commitment — or an explicit choice not to decide.
There is no follow-up call implied and no programme pitch during the session.
Who this is for
This session is for professionals, operators, and independent thinkers who:
-
feel mentally busy but directionally unclear
-
are carrying decisions they keep postponing
-
want precision, not motivation
-
and are willing to be challenged respectfully
If you want reassurance, encouragement, or ongoing support, this is not the right container.
Terms
-
This is a decisional session, not an exploratory chat
-
The session runs for 60 minutes with a hard stop
-
You may be interrupted for clarity
-
Payment confirms readiness
-
No recording is provided

Frequently Asked Questions
What is your approach?
Throughout my career, I’ve found it useful to be integrative in my approach. I have studied and use a mixture of approaches including but not limited to the person-centred approach, Neuro-linguistic programming, guided visualisation and applied psychology.

Is my data protected?
Yes, in line with General Data Protection Regulations(GDPR) and GDPR(UK) and the UK Data Protection Act (2018), the most stringent data protection laws in the world.
Do we have to go into my past?
Not necessarily no. You’ve already lived it once, i dont find it useful to make you relive it all over again. You may find through our conversations however, that you gain insight of your own accord due to the nature of the lessons you’ve learned and continue to learn.
How effective is coaching?
When done well, its a game-changer. People’s lives change, new insughts formed, all manner of new things experienced.l in my experience the only thing that can get in the way of progress is a lack of commitment to your own progress. Before we get started on the deep dive, we always do an ecology check to make sure that change is what you want.

No, but these sessions can be used towards ‘other training’ criteria if this is included in your requirements for professional purposes. If you need a certificate to prove attendance, please ask upfront and I can make these available.

Yes, either due to the psycho-education, personal coaching or professional conversations element of CPD in the United Kingdom. If you require evidence of coaching sessions, please let me know in advance so i can make this available to you.
Is this expensable in my business?
Yes, this classes as ‘training expenses’ and should be tax-deductble. Check the expenses allowance in your legal jurisdiction.
