You are not alone!
Stress is widespread: In a recent UK-wide survey, 74% of adults reported feeling so stressed in the past year that they felt overwhelmed or unable to cope, and many also reported anxiety and depressive feelings linked to that stress. (Source: Priory)
Burnout remains common: A major UK survey found that about one in three adults experience high or extreme pressure or stress often or always, and nearly everyone surveyed encountered some form of intense pressure during the year. (Source: Mental Health UK)
Life satisfaction isn’t as high as many assume: Across OECD countries, average self-rated life satisfaction sits under 7 out of 10, showing many people aren’t fully at ease with how their lives feel day-to-day. (Source: OECD)
Does any of this lot feel familiar?
✓ You’re in debt
✓ You physical health isn't where you want it to be
✓ Your relationships feel strained
✓ You’re tired all the time. Sleep is poor and motivation is low
✓ Work drains you
✓ You feel bored, frustrated, or stuck, but can’t quite explain why
✓ You use alcohol or substances to switch off more than you’d like
✓ You want to start a business, but don’t know where to begin
✓ You want a change of environment, but fear is holding you back
…it’s not just you — these are common experiences among people under pressure today.
I help in three practical areas:
1. Getting unstuck without blowing things up
This is for when you know something’s off, but you don’t want to do anything stupid. You’re tired of going round in circles in your own head and just want a bit of space to think properly again.
2. Turning your experience into income
You don’t need to reinvent yourself. You’ve already built skills, judgement, and experience, you just haven’t turned them into something that works for you yet. This is about making money in a way that actually makes sense at this stage of life.
3. More freedom - at home or abroad
Freedom means different things to different people. For some it’s more time and flexibility. For others it’s working remotely, travelling more, or eventually living somewhere else.
This is about choosing what freedom looks like for you, not copying anyone else’s life.
Your trusted co-pilot when you feel stuck
You probably don’t need another guru, framework, or motivational speech.
You need someone who’s been where you are and won’t rush you into the wrong move or feed you a bullshit answer.
I’ve spent decades building careers, making mistakes, getting things wrong, getting things right, and starting again when life stopped feeling like it fitted.
That perspective is what I bring when I work with people who feel fed up, stuck, or unsure what their next chapter should look like.
