Before Coaching
I was in burnout. My business was facing significant challenges, and I'd reached a critical point where I was prepared to walk away from my 16-year business because it wasn't worth sacrificing my health. Coming from a creative background rather than business, I needed support to navigate the complexities of leadership and create sustainable success
The Breakthrough
James came in and recognised what we needed most was steadiness; a safe pair of hands to anchor things down. He held me accountable and ensured everyone knew what they were doing. We created a plan and stuck to it, which allowed me to focus on other priorities. His gentle but effective approach created a sense of safety and stability for the entire team.
Where I Am Now
The team is empowered and happier than they've ever been. I don't feel anxious anymore, knowing someone is ensuring people are doing what they promised. Both sides of the business are profitable, and I can focus on growth and investment, which wasn't possible before. James has been exactly what we needed.

What is the difference between coaching and advisory?
Coaching focuses on personal development and leadership skills, while advisory provides direct strategic guidance and practical business interventions. Advisory is more hands-on, offering specific recommendations and tactical support to complement the personal growth achieved through coaching.
Who benefits most from business advisory?
Business advisory serves founders and leadership teams navigating significant business transitions, seeking external strategic perspective, or aiming to improve operational efficiency. It is particularly valuable for startups, scale-ups, and established businesses looking to optimise their growth strategies.
What specific areas does business advisory cover?
Our advisory services provide comprehensive support across strategic planning, team structure, operational efficiency, growth strategies, and organisational culture development. We deliver structured, actionable guidance tailored to each business's unique challenges.
How hands-on is the advisory support?
Advisory support includes regular strategic planning sessions, direct implementation support, and ongoing communication. We adapt our approach to provide precisely the level of intervention required to address your specific business needs and objectives.
What are the expected outcomes of business advisory?
Business advisory aims to deliver tangible improvements in business strategy, team performance, operational efficiency, and leadership capabilities. Clients typically experience more informed decision-making, increased business resilience, and measurable performance improvements.
