James grew up in the north of England, earning a degree in politics and economics, working various jobs to support himself after university.

He visited Australia for the Olympics and decided to stay. He started working in recruitment, which led to opportunities and a new life here.

He thrived in the corporate world, pursuing promotions and financial success, before realising he wasn't fully satisfied or on the right path.

Throughout his life, James faced depression and anxiety, realizing through reflection and support these struggles were opportunities to grow and change.

Becoming a Dad changed James' outlook. Long-term visions of family life inspired him to pursue what truly matters and live with intention.

Finding joy in teaching and helping others, James left the corporate world to focus on coaching, using personal experiences to assist others.

Now committed to personal growth and guiding others, James prioritizes authenticity and self-understanding, creating lasting impact through his coaching and teaching efforts.
