Sunday Jan 15, 2023

Sunday Jan 15, 2023

Will is a certified professional coach who is passionate about the personal development of himself and others. 

 

Will spent 20 years as a personal trainer and was growing increasingly frustrated supporting people on the outer work only.  Now, as a coach, Will has been able to leverage his ability to connect, with his compassion, in a way that significantly serves others. 



Will’s clients have shared that he has been able to create spaces where they can truly get to the bottom of what’s holding them back and ultimately be at the choice to release what’s heavy – whether it’s guilt, obligation, or self-doubt.  From there, they take action to step into life feeling driven, confident, and motivated.

 

On a personal note, he has benefited from the exact processes and experiences he shares and creates for his clients.  He is grateful to be able to do the very work with his clients that have provided the learning and growth that has also served him.
