about paul
I love life and to want to make the most of it. Coaching is the most powerful tool I have found for doing so.
I am fortunate to co-live with my wonderful wife, twin-in-law and brother-in-law. Together we co-parent 3 children (my two daughters and my niece).
I seek to be energised, heart-centered and of service to the crazy ones.
I serve the crazy ones through this coaching practice and as a Partner at Everoze.
I love festivals, retreats and peak experiences, particularly those involving deep connection to myself, others or nature. Inspired by my own coach, I ran a 55km ultra-marathon with two weeks prep!

WITH BALANCE
I started training as a coach after my eldest daughter was born. I took 3 month parental leaves with both of my children and worked 4 days a week to look after them on Fridays. I help my clients feel less stress and to do so effectively I focus on coming from a grounded place of balance.

In the real world
