One of the best investments I’ve made!

“I was skeptical at first. I didn’t think mindset or NLP work could actually change how I felt about my job. I assumed the problem was external. Within a few sessions with Shawn, it became clear the issue wasn’t my role, but how I was internally relating to it. The constant frustration, lack of motivation, and mental fog lifted. I didn’t quit my job or blow up my life. I simply started feeling aligned, focused, and calm again. That shift alone changed everything. Shawn goes deeper than surface-level mindset work, and the results actually last.”

Is This You?

You're successful on paper, but:

  • You feel empty despite achieving your goals — The promotion, the salary, the lifestyle... none of it feels like you thought it would

  • You're burned out and trapped — Working 60-hour weeks with no time for yourself, and you can't see a way out

  • You know something needs to change, but you're paralyzed — Should you leave your job? Your relationship? Start over? The uncertainty keeps you frozen

  • Self-doubt is crippling your decisions — You second-guess everything, overthink opportunities, and watch other men take action while you stay stuck

  • You've tried fixing it yourself — Books, podcasts, gym routines... but nothing creates lasting change

If this sounds like you, you're in the right place. This isn't about your work ethic or your intelligence—it's about the limiting beliefs and mental blocks that keep high-achieving men trapped in lives they've outgrown.

Real Men. Real Transformations.

These men were stuck, self-doubting, and unfulfilled. Here’s what changed:

  • Left a toxic 10-year relationship → Now in a fulfilling partnership with someone who truly gets him

  • Stuck in underpaid corporate role for 8 years → *Negotiated £32k salary increase in 6 weeks*

  • Paralyzed by self-doubt, couldn’t make decisions → *Launched the business he’d been avoiding for 4 years*

  • Burned out, working 70-hour weeks → *Now works 35 hours, earns more, actually enjoys life*

  • Trapped in “golden handcuffs” job he hated → Left to pursue passion career, happier than he’s been in a decade

  • Constant anxiety and overthinking → *Makes bold decisions quickly, trusts himself completely*

  • Felt empty despite outward success → Rediscovered purpose, wakes up energized and fulfilled

  • Afraid to have difficult conversations → *Set boundaries with family, partner, and boss—relationships improved dramatically*

 

This is what’s possible when you stop making excuses and commit to transformation.

My Proven Framework: The Breakthrough Process

Unlike traditional therapy that takes years or generic coaching that’s all mindset and no action, I use a targeted approach that creates rapid, lasting transformation.

1

Identify the Real Block

Most men think they lack motivation or discipline. That’s almost never the actual problem. Using NLP and deep-dive coaching, we uncover the limiting beliefs and unconscious patterns keeping you stuck—often within the first session.

2

Rewire Your Mindset

I use advanced NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) techniques that rapidly shift how you think and feel.

*Here’s how it works:* NLP interrupts the unconscious patterns that create self-doubt, fear, and limiting beliefs—then replaces them with empowering ones. Think of it as updating your mental operating system. Instead of years of talk therapy, we target the root cause and eliminate it in weeks, not decades.

These aren’t affirmations or positive thinking—these are proven psychological tools that eliminate self-doubt, fear, and limiting beliefs at their root.

3

Take Bold Action

Insights without action are worthless. You’ll create a clear plan and take concrete steps immediately—with accountability and support to ensure you follow through when resistance shows up (and it will).

*What Makes This Different:*

  • No fluff or woo-woo* — Practical, proven techniques that create measurable change

  • Rapid results* — Most clients experience breakthroughs in the first 2-4 weeks

  • Holistic approach* — We address mindset, lifestyle, health, and environment—not just one piece

  • Relentless accountability* — I’ll push you when you need it and support you when doubt creeps in

Frequently asked questions

WHY ME

Why Men Choose to Work With Me

I’ve been where you are—successful on paper, empty on the inside. I built the career, hit the goals, checked all the boxes. And I still felt stuck and unfulfilled.

It wasn’t until I stopped pretending and did the real work that everything changed. Not just my mindset, but my entire life. That’s why I became a coach—because I refuse to watch capable men waste years being stuck when I know the path out.

*I’m a Certified Master NLP Practitioner and Life Coach who specialises in getting successful men unstuck—fast.* My approach combines proven psychological techniques with no-BS accountability. I don’t do fluffy motivation or surface-level pep talks. I help you identify what’s actually holding you back, rewire it at the root, and build a life that’s authentically yours.

### What Makes My Approach Different:

  • *Advanced NLP Techniques*  
    As a Master NLP Practitioner, I don’t just talk about mindset—I use proven techniques that rapidly eliminate self-doubt, fear, and limiting beliefs at the unconscious level. This creates change in weeks, not years.

  • *Specialization in Men*  
    I only work with men because the challenges you face—performance pressure, emotional suppression, identity crisis after success—require specific strategies. I get it because I’ve lived it.

  • *Relentless Accountability*  
    Weekly calls are great. Daily WhatsApp check-ins are better. I don’t let you ghost on your goals or make excuses. You’ll either make progress or get honest feedback on why you’re not.

  • *I Practise What I Preach*  
    I’ve completed ultra-marathons in the Italian Dolomites (UTMB Lavaredo Ultra Trail), rebuilt my own life from rock bottom, and I use the exact same tools I teach you. I know what it takes to push through when your mind screams at you to quit—that’s exactly what transformation requires.

Working with Shawn has been  really eye opening

Working with Shawn has been really eye opening. It's allowed me to see that long term change can happen and any goal can be achieved but it takes a relentless approach to navigating your focus. Working with Shawn allows that process to become visible and that enables you to personally define what your route can be. I think the key thing I learned is that this can provide instant results by putting positive actions into motion straight away but also you need to keep doing those things to change course permanently, reflecting on what's important for you as each you take each step.

And in that way you gradually define what your journey needs to be.
