Find a Life Coach

Personal Life Coach - about

People are developing and growing all the time. It's a natural part of being human. So why should something so natural be made more difficult than necessary?

Peppermint Giraffe stands for fun, down-to-earth and flexible personal development - and seeing people wanting to come back for more. What else would you ask for when you're after something fresh and stretching…?!

What is coaching?

Coaching is about helping people be the best they can be. Whether it's an athletics coach helping a sprinter to run faster, or a mother encouraging her child to walk, coaching leads to improved performance and realised potential.

Who is your coach?

My name is Nigel Wood, and I am a qualified Business Psychologist and Life Coach with over 11 years of success in the field of people development. Words that people have used to describe me include: balanced, considerate, fun and down-to-earth.

Core areas

1. Helping people improve their interpersonal skills, so that they can get more out of important relationships.

For example, we might spend some time developing your listening skills so that you can get on better with your teenage son/ boss/ new partner.

2. Helping people get focussed and motivated through greater self-awareness, so that they can get more out of life.

For example, we might look at what you really value in life and whether you have enough of it(!) The process of 'taking-stock' itself often leads to improved self-confidence, and is usually the first step in any coaching experience.

Typical clientele

Coaching is appropriate for people from all walks of life, and the fact that everyone is different is what makes my job interesting! However, if you:

- have a basic zest for life but perhaps feel that it's currently missing
- live in London and are looking for face-to-face coaching
(or live in the UK and are after telephone coaching) - are perhaps at some sort of turning point in your life
- need to be listened too but don't want molly-coddling
- want to be challenged when needed, rather than told what's best for you
- are willing to put in the work that will make your life as good as it should be

…then there's a great chance we'll have a fruitful and rewarding relationship
