Working with a personal business coach involves regularly sitting down with someone who will listen to you. We'll help you to untangle your thoughts, and work out what’s holding you and your business back.

Benefits of Coaching outdoors

As well as working in more traditional office environments, Ben also works with clients outdoors. Discover the many benefits to getting outside for some or all our sessions, including:

​

  • Recharge - We all know intuitively that getting outdoors and into the natural world improves our physical and mental health. Hard evidence is growing to back up this intuition.

  • Be at ease -  Walking and talking alongside someone creates a totally different experience. It's an experience that can feel more relaxed and allow you to open up. The result is often conversations that evolve in a different way.

  • Discover - Opening ourselves up to new sensations, experiencing different environments, and the act of walking itself can all help increase our creativity.

working with BEN outdoors

There are two ways we can work together outdoors:

​

  1. As part of a 6-month block of coaching sessions, we can take one of the sessions outside and into the hills or forest

  2. You can book a block of four outdoor coaching sessions where we spend all of the sessions outside.

 Ben gently pushed us out of our comfort zone to help us focus on the current and future aspects of our business which we were floundering on. We’ve come away from it feeling re-energised about what we do and why we do it. He's super friendly and very insightful and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for business direction and inspiration.

He has actively helped us to come out of our comfort zone and we're looking forward to achieving bigger and better things with his help and guidance.
