Transformative work that I’ll never forget!
I’ve been lucky enough to have coaching with Richard for the last 2 years and it has honestly been transformative. For the first time ever, I’ve understood the importance of putting myself first and why “I matter.” But more important than the knowledge is actually feeling it and being able to put it into practice with congruence and without guilt. Richard helped me do that.
I’ve felt a huge shift since starting this work. It’s like for the first time my heart, soul and head have aligned with what I need and deserve. I feel lighter and at peace, and excited for what’s to come — when in the past I’ve felt like I didn’t want to be part of my future because it all seemed so tough, gloomy, tiring and hard work.
Richard will probably say that’s because I’ve done the work, but he deserves a massive amount of credit for getting me there. No other counsellor, therapist or coach (and there have been over a dozen) has been able to do this, and that’s down to his skill, compassion, kindness and belief in what he does — and why he does it.
Richard gave me hope again, helped me realise it’s just as important to serve myself as it is others, and gave me a voice I couldn’t always find — to myself and to others — to state what I need, want and deserve.
Together we’ve shifted limiting beliefs, unpicked some childhood trauma and looked to challenge the patterns I’ve developed that don’t serve me.
Richard is such a unique combination of therapist, coach and friend all at once — a role that must be hard to balance, and that’s what made this experience so positive for me. It’s clear coaching is what Richard was put on this earth to do; the way he holds space for others and the transformation he helps bring about speaks for itself.
Thank you, Richard, for helping me shed tears I wouldn’t let arrive before (and for sharing your own emotion with me). Thank you for asking challenging questions and prompting me in ways that at times probably felt like a risk. And thank you for being my safe space when I felt vulnerable in the feelings and memories we explored.
Richard did exactly what I needed and more, and I will never forget our journey together. If you get chance to be part of Richard’s weekend retreats, circles or 1 to 1 work, I’d strongly recommend it!
