Client Stories

I've worked with everyone, from individuals to large corporations, supporting talent development and global product creation.

This is what they say:


“Tom has been transformational for my career development and my growth as a person.

Tom has helped me become a better colleague, strategist and leader”

Individual and Corporate Stories

  • Tom would say it was all down to me, but I would not have been able to navigate my successful career change if it were not for him.

    He helped me craft my goals, structure a path and build confidence to turn a small vision into a reality. Most pivotally though, he helped me believe in myself, and motivated me to pave a new career that didnt even exist yet in the field. Not to mention, he’s just an all round vibe to be around and beacon of light to spend time with. It's been 5 years, and Tom has gone from my personal coach, to one for me and my business partner, who run a successful neuroscience consultancy for the creative sector. I can’t imagine we would be here without him. He is a core member of our team and we're so grateful to have him!

  • Working with Tom as my business coach has been a transformative experience.

    His guidance has completely reshaped how I view both myself and my business, leading to incredible success over the past year. Tom's insightful approach helped me realize that 'what got you here, won't get you there,' and it has made all the difference in achieving my goals.

    I highly recommend Tom to anyone looking to elevate their business to the next level.

  • I was referred to Tom as I began to think about what I wanted next in life. I had been in a job for 6 years and felt like I wanted a new challenge. Tom supported me to bring words to what was important to me, build a vision for what this looked like long-term, and put in place an immediate plan to begin to start this life path.

    I went from feeling like my life was a reaction to others’ actions to being intentional and in control of my next step — and most importantly, excited for what’s next.

  • Tom’s calm, unwavering support has been critical in finding a renewed sense of confidence and motivation in a new role that has enabled me to achieve so much in an incredibly short space of time.

    His unique understanding of the inner workings of both the creative industries and the corporate world is invaluable.

    I certainly was shocked when we reviewed the first session compared to six or seven months later and the complete 180 turnaround that had occurred. I have a lot to thank Tom for and spending time with him has been a joy.

  • I genuinely regret not speaking with Tom sooner.

    His unique ability to guide & navigate conversations gave me the confidence & encouragement to be open, honest & vulnerable about who I am & what I want. 

    I kind of, sort of, thought I knew where my career was heading, in reality I had no idea. Too many pathways in my brain heading no where specific. After one session, the roadmaps became so much clearer. My goals & aspirations suddenly felt tangible. I could close my eyes & visualise exactly what it was I was working towards.

    Over the course of our sessions, Tom equipped me with the tools & techniques I needed to work smarter, not harder.

  • Seeing Tom has changed my life.

    Not only do I get to explore and resolve challenges and opportunities, he has also taught me practical skills that I integrate into my daily routines that increase my focus, calm, happiness and motivation. I can see, and so can the people around me, the change that having Tom as a coach has had on me.

  • I started working with Tom at a crossroads in my life, grappling with a love/hate relationship with entrepreneurship. His enthusiasm, perspective-shifting exercises, and pragmatic outlook completely transformed my perspective on success.

    Tom helped me redefine what it means to succeed as an individual, showing me that the traits I once saw as debilitating are actually my greatest entrepreneurial strengths. Thanks to his guidance, I now feel empowered and excited about my future—both professionally and personally.

  • Tom helped me navigate the change from where I was (senior and salaried, but stagnant) to what I'm now building (running my own business and consultancy).

    It took me a while to take the decision to invest in coaching, but I'm incredibly glad I did. Tom helped me see through some of my own bullshit, to be clear about what it was I wanted, and to get there 10x faster than I was ever going to manage by myself. And as anyone who knows him will tell you, Tom's got some of the best energy around. Unhesitatingly recommended.

    Kevin Molloy

  • Tom is exceptional for so many reasons - he is a life-changer, he motivates, he has a warmth and a depth of understanding of the client that I think stretches beyond that of your average coach.

    He has helped me to see things differently and my life is better for knowing Tom. I would be happy to recommend him to anyone seeking fulfillment and understanding of this world we live in.

    Smoot Carter

  • Sometimes people come into your life exactly when you need them. Tom is one of those people for me.

    Tom's guidance, coaching and outlook helped me so much. His approach allowed me to look forward and really begin to look forward to looking forward (if that makes sense). He helped me to frame what I value most out of both my personal and professional life and to set myself on a path to getting there. He is a world class listener and it's clear to see how much his clients and their progress mean to him. I'm grateful for every session we had and would encourage anyone thinking of getting some coaching to put their faith in Tom. Also getting to attend one of his events was a real highlight for me - excellent food and brilliant company.

    Ben Jack Thomas

  • Tom’s been coaching me for almost a year now and with his support, guidance and insight, I have been able to take some of the key steps I needed to be successful and happy on my own terms.

    I feel a lot more proactive and intentional in who I am and where I’m are going and the impact has been felt by my colleagues and family too. It’s great working with someone who is a fellow entrepreneur, investor and creative too as Tom is really able to empathise and help develop clarity in a way that I haven’t had before. Thank you Tom, look forward to continuing our work together.

  • When I met Tom I was stressed and unhappy at work. My thinking was going round in unhelpful circles. I immediately felt safe talking to Tom.

    Before long, I felt more 'myself' and confident enough to take control of the situation.

    Before meeting Tom I always prided myself on being rational about my circumstances, but didn't appreciate the power of the stories I told myself about myself. I'm still working with Tom, and enjoying every session.

  • Working with Tom has been one of the smartest and most impactful decisions I’ve made. His methodology to inspire change is approachable, action-oriented, and even fun.

    He has helped me through one of the most transformative moments in my career while also providing a holistic approach to balancing other pursuits in life.

    What he does is valuable for anyone seeking growth, change, or evolution in their professional and personal lives.

    Jason Feinberg

  • When we initially crossed paths, I had just assumed a new role, one in which I had minimal experience, and I was grappling with overwhelming feelings of imposter syndrome.

    Throughout our sessions, Tom not only encouraged but supported me in delving into my identity and reassessing my priorities.

    After six months of working with Tom, my life has undergone a remarkable transformation for the better. I've developed a significantly deeper understanding of myself, with a substantial boost in confidence being the most notable change. Tom has been instrumental in highlighting the value of my own voice, emphasizing that assertiveness and kindness can coexist. This insight has drastically improved my ability to express my thoughts and feelings.

    I now excel at clear communication and approach challenging conversations and situations with much greater confidence. Since meeting Tom, I not only possess a clearer understanding of myself, but he has also equipped me with the tools to continually challenge and push myself. He has instilled in me the belief that I can achieve anything with determination and focus.

  • Working with Tom has been one of the most rewarding and productive professional relationships I've ever had.”

    It's difficult to believe that we actually only spent twelve hours together in total, given the distance I travelled in that time. I turned up with a set of questions about how I was approaching some fundamental aspects of work and Tom listened brilliantly and was always ready with the right questions, encouragement and challenge. He was deft enough to balance the sense of hope and possibility in each session to carry me forward, with the hard work required to understand myself and apply that to coming up with the answers that work for me in the long term. Transformative stuff.

  • Working with Tom has been one of the most transformative experiences of my career.

    Through a deft balance of support and questioning, Tom has helped me reshape my professional perspective, and identify a more fulfilling, purpose-driven approach to work.

     Our sessions has given me the toolkit to be a more effective and engaged manager, and the confidence to shape my work around the passion points that inspire and engage me most. I cannot recommend Tom highly enough for anybody looking to better understand themselves and their work.
