TESTIMONIALS
Bonny Pratt, Budapest,
Ex-Director, Financial Services
Justin is an exceptional coach with a depth of personal experience in the financial industry, who could relate to my career path and experiences. I worked with Justin during a significant career transition, moving from a long-standing fast-paced career in trading, into a senior innovation technology role, with a brand-new team and management structure.
​
As a result of Justin’s coaching, I shifted from being a mostly defensive person to a less explosively reactive person. Justin helped me gain a new perspective and develop new strategies to help manage my anxiety and challenge my thinking.
​
This change in me has led me to become more resilient and increased my ability to manage stress better, to lead a much calmer and emotionally stable life. As a result of working with Justin, I have made significant career progression in the past two years to which I credit Justin. I would highly recommend him as a coach.
Kevin Feng, New York,
Principle, Financial Services
I have been working with Justin for ~18 months. Over that time, he has helped me identify the core issues affecting my life/career and provided critical guidance for me to take intentional action to address them.
He is a great listener and has an uncanny ability to connect with his clients. Our sessions have helped me gain a much better perspective of myself and the clear steps I need to take to achieve my goals.


Most importantly, he genuinely cares about his clients and wants them to be the best version of themselves. His support has been incredibly helpful along my journey, and I’d highly recommend others to work with Justin as well.
Omar Turk, New York,
VP, Financial Services
I worked with Justin for almost 10 months and it ws a very positive experience. Justin is very attentive, extremely patient and has an incredible ability to absorb everything you share with him and then help you unpack it. Through his coaching and guidance, he has allowed me to gain a deeper knowledge of myself and understand what drives my actions and behaviours.
By constantly orienting me toward self-reflection and self-care, I am less reactive and better able to consciously respond to various situations/circumstances.
​
Overall, Justin is a phenomenal coach and supporter, with a great sense of humour and I highly recommend him.
Danny Martin,
Global Account Director
Cementing goals and holding yourself accountable to achieve them is sometimes a bigger feat than we expect it to be.
Too many ambitions, goals set too high or having the wrong focus can be detrimental to success. Having had Justin as a coach to help me define goals better, prioritise what is really important and streamlining processes that make sense and help to organise oneself have been instrumental to stronger motivation and a clearer long term strategy on achieving set goals.
It has been a joy to work with Justin working on myself, as an ongoing force with good fundamentals in place.
Kate Alexander, Head of Commercial Channel, Nestle
I’ve been working with Justin over the past few months. This was spurred on by a leadership programme that I was taking part in for work and a sense of frustration on my part that I was going around in a vicious circle!
I realised I needed someone to extract some thinking from me, help me understand the importance of values in leadership, what my key values are, and then how I might want to grow as a leader. Some of this was confronting. Most times it felt like a light switch went off and for sure I am on a journey of self-development thanks to the coaching work with Justin, and there is so much more for me to uncover!
​
If you’re looking for someone to help you look deeper into yourself, I highly recommend a chat with Justin.
Rachel Lawrence, Accountant and busy mum, UK
Having no previous experience of life coaching, I took the opportunity to book an introductory meeting to see if my goal aligned to Justin’s style of coaching. As a busy working mum, I was becoming increasingly aware that my stressed and rushing behaviour was being reflected back at me through my children's behaviour.
Change was needed and I wanted to be the best version of myself, to be the best role model for my children - a very wide remit!
And Wow! Justin created a safe space and listened non judgementally, allowing me to be open and honest about the topic I chose to work on. Sometimes there were tough realisations. On reflection, these were the times I learnt the most, gained the most insight, and made the most progress towards being the best version of myself.
In my view, Justin has a gift to know when to nudge you to challenge yourself and I would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking to make transformational changes in their personal or professional lives.
Since coaching, my view of the world is very different, so much more positive and full of opportunities, and I will always be grateful to Justin for this insight.
Wendy Tse, VP Financial Services, London
I was very fortunate to be given the opportunity to be coached by Justin through work. Had I not been, I would have no idea I needed a Life Coach.
Shortly after a work promotion, I remember struggling with my tough workload. I thought I had it all under control until my friends noticed I was not my happy cheerful self. As soon as they started talking about my work I got very emotional. Friends suggested I seek some help and fortunately for me I was introduced to coaching by work at just the right time.
​
Initially, I had huge reservations. I thought who can possibly know me more than myself and where will I find the time? After just four sessions, I was not asked to make myself available, I wanted to be available. I looked forward to my coaching sessions with Justin; he gave me a platform to speak honestly and openly and together he allowed me to understand myself through a pair of lens that did not exist before, which enabled me to work through my challenges. If you are looking for a coach, don’t pass on this opportunity to speak to Justin.
Jennifer Johnston, Freelance Cartographer, East Sussex
I had never tried coaching before and I was a little bit dubious, but I had reached a dead end on my own steam so I decided to give it a try.
​
Justin was an excellent coach and helped me achieve the goals I had for each session. I made important behavioural changes relieving myself from feelings of resentment and powerlessness. I learned how to allow slow times to happen but not persist by realising through Justin's help, what actions I could take that wouldn't feel like a drain or a waste of time.
Justin coached me to promote myself and my work in a way that I was comfortable with. Each session we adjusted each task I set for myself so that the likelihood of me doing them was very high. Everything was catered to me and my personality. I would recommend Justin to anyone, especially to those feeling stuck.
Nadine Scott, UK
Director, Financial Services
I’ve tried the coaching process before and while I was able to achieve some desirable outcomes, I felt there was only so far I could go with those coaches.
What is different about Justin and the reason that I feel the sky is the limit in terms of achievable outcomes is that I’ve never felt judged by him. This ensures that I look forward to each coaching session without worrying that he is going to tell what to do.
In terms of value for money, his ability to listen to what I am saying and articulating it in such a way that I gain a deeper meaning of my own words ensures that not one minute of the coaching time is wasted.
Joyce Ong, COO, Citi Equities Technology, New York
Working with Justin has been genuinely one of the best decisions I have made, for both my personal and professional wellness. Justin has this uncanny gift of helping me cut through the noise and distractions bouncing around inside my head and guiding me to self-actualisation and realisation.
Initially, I considered him a guiding light in the darkness, but over time I've realised he is much more than that. He has helped me to find my own inner lamp such that I am able to not just find my own way in the right here right now, but also continue in a self-sustaining way to light my own path long after the last session.
I highly recommend others to embark on their own journeys with Justin - your potential and greatest self is waiting to be unlocked.
Myriam Hofri, Digital Transformation Manager
Justin has been my coach for nearly a year now. He helped me flourish professionally and personally. It took me on a self-discovery path and helped me get clearer about my priorities, values and how aligned (or misaligned) my job and key decisions were with these. As a coach, Justin is flexible (a big plus for me), patient and genuinely interested in you.
He doesn’t distinguish your professional self from your personal self. When he tackles issues with you he considers all aspects of your life.
The combination of his humanity, coaching skills and knowledge of my industry (financial services) allows him to bring the best out of me and I am grateful for that.
Danny Martin, Financial Services Consultant
It has been a super positive and insightful experience to work with a coach the first time ever.
Justin has been instrumental in a short period to help me reflect on the habits I created and how I could change them, or be aware of them faster in order to stop myself and become more efficient and think m fore clearly.
His professionalism completely reflected the solid way of his approach and grand integrity. Yes, I am sold on his coaching and happy to recommend him.
David Grayson, Commentator & Writer, London
I have had the opportunity of being coached by Justin over four months and found it very helpful and positive. Justin has a very calm and patient approach, he doesn't "lead" you but draws you out and creates the space in which you find yourself articulating your hitherto unexpressed ideas.
Based on my own experience working with Justin, I am very happy to recommend him.
Wanda Echavarria, Principle Operations & Personnel
The simplest way of describing Justin is that he's an outstanding coach. Justin is a professional, super intuitive, and simply on point with his ELI assessments and coaching approach. He is caring and really honest. If you are willing to do the work - you will transform yourself.
Change is not easy but with the right tools and coach, you can accomplish your goals. Take a chance on you and do the work. Be the change you want to see. Kudos to Justin as he is completely aligned with his craft.
Thrilled to be working with him and to recommend him.
Debbie Davies, UK
Category and Insight Expert
Through his coaching technique, over the last year, Justin has enabled me to grow both as an individual and business owner. My sessions with him have allowed for breathing and thinking space from the demands of busy work and personal schedule to focus purely on me.
Justin has an intuitive ability to listen and enable through his work. I now understand a lot more about myself and the impact of others on me.
He's given me time to explore and reflect on my values and move forward with confidence. I would certainly recommend him as a coach.
Norma Galvin, Senior Consultant, Regulatory Change
Justin is an excellent coach. As a coach, he supported my transition from one role to another giving me the confidence to take on a more challenging and senior role, which was outside my comfort zone.
My mantra was always “I am a good no.2, not the lead”. Justin helped me to question what was behind this belief and to challenge it, which allowed me to take on a leadership role. I have left every conversation feeling empowered and energised, knowing that Justin believes in me and my potential. I thoroughly recommend his style of coaching as he challenges you to be the best version of yourself in all aspects of your life.
David Alcock, Executive Coach, London
Justin coached me whilst I was working on my Executive Coaching qualification and it was a positive experience. It helped me to experience coaching through the eyes of the client and his approach was spot on.
Great listening, very pertinent questions to help you better understand the challenge you are looking at and then agreeing on areas to focus on between sessions to help better understand what is driving particular behaviours etc. I also really enjoyed it.
Lyndsay Marshall
DIrector, Mum & Baby Centre
Justin’s support was very timely and enabled me to have the tools to address major life changes going on.
He gave me permission to be empowered and that in turn has driven better relationships and put me in a more positive place.
His relaxed style made me feel comfortable and he has a natural way of teasing out the key issues and how to relate to them.
I would recommend Justin’s Life coaching skills to anyone else that would benefit. Thank you Justin.
Sylvia Day, Leadership Presence Coach & Actor
I had the privilege to be coached by Justin over a 3-month period. In that short time, I reached more personal goals than I ever had before.
With his gentle, encouraging and non-judgmental nature, Justin has that rare ability to intuitively guide you to exactly where you need to go in a way that makes you feel you had the answers all along.
Lorraine Gibson, Business Development & Marketing Manager
I was fortunate enough to be coached by Justin during a time when I was transitioning into a new senior role which included a seat on a couple of exec committees.
Each week Justin was quick to understand the challenges and coached me in a way that prepared me well for each interaction. His questions were incredibly thought-provoking and often you wouldn’t see which path he took to develop the question.
He’s a great listener and excellent at interpreting, restructuring and presenting back the string of consciousness that often fell out of my mouth.
Verity Russell, UK Account Director/Programs Manager
My Coaching journey with Justin has been both insightful and enlightening. A number of significant changes have naturally occurred during the course and since as opposed to just 'happened' to me.
The focus of my coaching was non-financial ie my motivation was not centred on a corporate ladder or work-based objectives.
Some of the most notable changes have been around the work we did on energy levels and where I tended to operate and resonate at. Harnessing and developing that skill set has really made the biggest impact at both home and work.
Rob Sykes, Sound Therapist, Artist & Marketing Director
I was fortunate enough to benefit from Justin's life coaching skills whilst embarking on a new career path and his help in moving me forward has been immeasurable.
Justin has an innate ability to listen, understand and to ask the kind of questions that really open your mind to new ways of thinking, not just about yourself, but at the task in hand. I would highly recommend Justin as a Life Coach to anybody that wants to make that change for the better.
Dr Jena Field, Therapist, Barcelona
I approached Justin to help me develop my business, but I received so much more. Justin has been instrumental in helping me build a roadmap for my future. He is highly insightful, intuitive, and a great listener. He asked the right questions and listened to what I was saying (and to what I was not saying).
He helped me recognise the sticking points that I had not seen before. He helped me to solidify my goals and tackle the roadblocks that were stopping me from reaching these. Justin has an instinct, talent and passion for what he does and it shines through.
