Every once in a while, you cross paths with someone and instantly know that they’re going to have a profound impact on your life. Em had this when she met Jim, and can’t speak more highly about the coaching sessions she’s had with him. He’s also received 5 star reviews from some of our Dapper clients, so you’re in for a treat if you have the opportunity to connect with him. Curious to find out more about what makes him tick? Read on…
What’s your one line elevator pitch?
Be the you, you want to be.
Why are you passionate about what you do?
Because life is too short to let fears, stories or your past get in the way of living a life you love. I felt the crippling cost of misalignment myself, so I love nothing more than helping people tap into their potential.
Who is your ideal customer?
Anyone who is open for change, willing to challenge their existing beliefs and committed to making a difference. Most, if not all of my clients are business owners or leaders, usually driven types who would benefit a lot from slowing down and going a little easier on themselves.
What can Dapper clients expect in a discovery call with you?
You can expect me to help you challenge your stories in a loving way. My aim is to hold space for you to get out of your head and dig down a few layers to what you already know but may not have allowed yourself to see.
Tell us a bit about your career to date?
I set up Untamed eight years ago after running a multi-million dollar mining business in Perth, Australia for five years. Prior to that I lived in Whistler, Canada for five years where I skied and partied with equal gusto, sandwiching work as a plumber and ski instructor in between. In my twenties I priortised adventure over career which exposed me to a vast number of cultures, industries and skills. All of which feed into my coaching work today.
What brings you joy/ energises you?
Coaching good people, the outdoors, adrenaline sports, and being on the water.
What do you enjoy about collaborating with Dapper?
First and foremost, Emma and I care about similar things and I love our conversations. Secondly, Dapper and Untamed are on similar missions and both love helping people tap into what makes them come alive.
Tell us something not many people know about you?
I am much harder on myself than one might think. My playful nature often hides a strong self critic.
