Client Testimonials

Working with David has been truly transformative. Throughout the process, I discovered new ways to approach my thoughts, breaking free from the endless cycle of overthinking. His guidance helped me shift my perspective, and by the end, I felt mentally lighter and more in control. No longer will I let my mind pull me back into that loop - I now have the tools to move forward with clarity and confidence. I can’t recommend David highly enough!
Lucy Duszczak
Head of eCommerce & Digital Marketing, YHA

Having previously engaged with other coaches and consistently walking away without tangible results, I was quite sceptical. However, David's persuasion led me to give it one more chance, and for that, I am profoundly grateful. David imparted new insights into my own psyche and presented a fresh perspective on my challenges. This approach helped alleviate feelings of guilt while still maintaining a focus on personal accountability and addressing my issues.
As a direct result of his guidance, I now feel significantly more equipped to confront my problems.

I came into the coaching not entirely sure what to expect. Previously, I had always tried to work through my issues alone. But working with David led to one of the most significant shifts in my personal development. I went from being driven by what seemed to me like very real external pressures, to relaxing into intuition, presence, and internal integrity. His presence and questions brought me back to mental clarity and emotional balance. What surprised me most was that I didn’t need fixing to achieve all this — I just needed to “come back” to myself, which felt really good. For this I feel deeply grateful.

He supported me to understand the real issue hiding behind my challenge at work. I enjoyed it so much and the coaching has started some positive changes in me. To anyone considering coaching, I recommend to connect with David, then sit back and relax to experience the breeze on your soul!

David helped me realise where my blindspots may be, and how I might resolve them. His 'whole person' approach extended beyond career coaching and into my daily interactions and relationships. I found the experience of coaching with him enjoyable and beneficial and would recommend it to others without hesitation
Cal Wong
Global Director, Sustainability Hong Kong

I am glad I enrolled on the program which I expected would be just more regular coaching. David guided me to open up and explore myself, which was incredibly important to solve the puzzle. His coaching skills allowed me to trust him throughout the conversation and I appreciate that his feedback wasn’t judgmental. The session was very powerful and totally beyond my expectations.
Update: it's been six months now and I must say I am still finding it very helpful. As I came onboard to my new role two months ago, I always keep in mind the key messages I learned from the coaching.

Thanks very much for the brilliant coaching session last week. I did not realize it has already been a week as I am still digesting it and building the awareness of how I interact with my colleagues and make decisions. However, it is AMAZING as I started feeling the difference the next day after our conversation. I work and talk to people more comfortably. It really helps me to open another door to see things differntly.

Senior Financial Services Executive

I didn't feel that I needed coaching. But I'm glad I booked David for some sessions. He was able to draw out aspects hidden in plain sight. These ended up repositioning the way I approach work, and my core drivers. Through our conversations I have made a simple mindset shift, and it has really helped. Having gone through the experience myself, I would gladly recommend David to anyone who wants to make improvements to themselves (especially if they think there’s no need!).
Jonathan Hobbs
