For high performers caught between who they are and who the system demands they become.

I work with founders and leaders who sense they're succeeding at the wrong game, and are ready to find a different one.

How I work

This isn’t surface-level coaching.

It’s a deep process of reconnecting to the part of you that already knows what matters beneath the noise, the performance, and the pressure.

We work across two essential layers:

1. Sustainable foundations

We begin by restoring rhythm, vitality, and recovery.

This might mean improving your sleep, shifting your relationship with stress, refining your movement and nourishment patterns, or rethinking how you create space to rest, reflect, and reset.

We also work with your nervous system to protect what matters most: your energy, your presence, and your peace.

2. Inner clarity and realignment

We look beneath the surface of how you lead, relate, and succeed.

Together, we begin to uncover the deeper strategies you’ve been using to hold it all together, that are now holding you back. These are often patterns shaped by pressure, performance, protection, or proving.

Sometimes we work with mindset. Sometimes with values, vision, or emotional regulation. Sometimes with the stories you tell yourself about who you need to be.

Where needed, we slow down and untangle what’s no longer serving you, so you can lead from presence, not overdrive, and move through complexity with clarity and choice.

This is the work of coming home to yourself, and learning to lead from there.

  • “Working with Steve was one of the most pivotal experiences in the early days of setting up ADHD Works - it wouldn’t be what it is today without his coaching. His holistic questioning and deep experience gave me the clarity, structure, and encouragement I needed to turn an idea into a focused, impactful business. What stood out most was that Steve never tried to mould me into a traditional entrepreneur. He helped me trust my instincts, honour my neurodivergent strengths, and build something aligned with my values. I left every conversation feeling clearer, calmer, and more capable. I’d strongly recommend coaching with Steve to anyone building something meaningful… especially if you want to do it your own way.”

    Leanne Maskell, Founder of ADHD Works

  • “Steve’s coaching helped me see that life’s challenges aren’t obstacles to avoid, but essential gateways to growth. Through his gentle encouragement, I now move through life with greater courage, compassion, and a deeper sense of purpose.”

    Gavin Wade, Co-Founder of PsyScale

  • “Steve provided an invaluable and transformative coaching experience as part of a transitional period in my career. He takes a personalised, human-centric approach to his coaching, ensuring you are working in alignment with your values and helping you work towards an authentic version of yourself.”
