One to one coaching can feel like a big investment, and I understand that if you’re going to invest your money you want to know if this is right for you. So before I give you the chance of setting up a 1 to 1 call to explore your options, I want you to take the time to understand more about what we offer and why.

Founder of Inspiring Dads
An overview of our 1 to 1 coaching.
Inspiring Dads specialises in paternity coaching for businesses and organisations, supporting ‘first year fathers’ to process the emotional and practical upheaval of fatherhood, regardless of whether they are first time dads or more experienced / worn out (!)
It helps them understand and navigate their way through the immediate stress and worry, building solid foundations and high quality, equitable relationships for the future. But that’s not all we do - we work with dads throughout their dad journey.
At the heart of all our client work Is:
“how to be a great dad, without sacrificing a great career?”
Dads benefit from a judgment free environment which supports open and honest conversations, exploring the pressures of modern day fatherhood. With the NCT reporting that the number of men who become depressed in the first year after becoming a dad is double that of the general population and 1 in 10 dads-to-be will also become depressed during their partner’s pregnancy, it’s clear that supporting new dads is crucial to help them feel more confident, involved, and valued in their role as parents. This support contributes to healthier family dynamics, strengthens the bond between father and child, and fosters a more inclusive parenting culture, benefiting both the individual and the wider community.

But, it’s Time to be honest…
1 to 1 coaching isn’t going to be for everyone. You’ve got to be ready to make a change, to take action and you’ve also got to ready to be emotionally vulnerable, honest with yourself and honest with me.
If you can’t let go of your thoughts and let me in then it’s not going to work. In short you need to trust me and trust yourself.
That’s why we jump on a free call first, to discover if the chemistry is there.
Once we start - it’s not just about talking, it’s about taking action. I’ll be your guide but it can’t do it for you.
Your goals, your action, your success
