What will keep you safe?

I have been spending precious time of late working with some people in a small and very special drug and alcohol rehabilitation centre, learning a great deal. It is not a closed unit and the clients could walk out…

What Do You Want? – a very good coaching question
Tweet ‘What do you want?” sounds somewhat materialistic – new shoes and car, live in a better area, more money… But it need not be, in fact it can be the question that gets you or one of your clients back on their real track, the track where they are fully in touch with themselves…

What Will Your Perfect Business be Like?
Tweet Or, if you are not in business, try substituting ‘life’ or ‘career’ or whatever other important life activity is uppermost in your mind and it’s still a very useful question.

It is early days but it is fascinating work and already I can see the huge potential of bringing Life Coaching, NLP and Clean Facilitation into this area.

The BOOK a celebration
