Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am an Experienced Professional Life Coach and Specialist in Permanent ( Not temporary ) Weight Loss with over 30 Years of Experience.
I’ve been fortunate enough to have been awarded many times including Best London Life Coach, Best U.K Life Coach, Best International Life Coach, and as a weight-loss coach he has been Awarded: Leading Specialist in Weight Loss & Weight Management between 2018 & 2021.
I have been Coaching for weight loss to Top VIP’s from around the World since 2012.
I qualified in the National Academy of Sports Medicine and have over 30 years of experience in the field of Exercise Physiology and the field of Nutrition, I’ve been designing Exercise Programs and Nutritional Programs since 1991. In addition, I have been Life Coaching since 2001 and I have vast experience in the field of Psychology.
I have written a 500-page book and co-authored a second book with Jim Britt, a top 20 world coach in personal development, this book reached #1 Amazon International bestseller recently and is also endorsed by Tony Robbins.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
‘Only For The Serious – Permanent Weight Loss’ is a Complete Mindset, Nutritional and Exercise Program that from start to finish, will effectively Navigate you on HOW to keep your excess weight OFF – Permanently.
I was inspired to write this because of the dismal figures that haven’t changed for eons, which are that around 95% – 99% of people who attempt to lose their excess weight – fail.
With the experience and background of 30 years behind me in this industry, I decided to put everything into a cost-effective resource – a book – that virtually anyone could access. Quite honestly it pains me to see good people put so much effort and commitment into trying to make their health and shape better – only to fail.
I believe that people deserve a better model than the outdated and inefficient diet and calorie-reduced based approach, people don’t fail per say – the model they use fails and as an industry, I believe it needs a thorough shaking up!
I hope my book becomes the game changer that I designed it to be, it not mainstream or traditional, has none of the limitations associated with weight loss ( NO dieting, NO calorie counting, NO cutting out any food groups, NO cutting out naughty / treat foods etc… ) yet still produces fabulous results and is modelled for the world’s top VIP that I have the privilege to have coached in this area for a decade now.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Yes! I am not grammatically perfect when I write, I strongly believe that real, in-person conversing involves a large number of variables including tone of voice, body language etc… and plain monotone content writing, for me at least, misses out all the ‘depths ‘ of the conversation so I tend to use underlines, bold, large writing even colour in my delivery as a means to deepen the impact of the conversation.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Tony Robbins, Zig Ziglar, Brian Tracey, I also love to read autobiographies.
What are you working on now?
Mentoring Life Coaches to make the progressive leap from standard – to Superior in the industry. Because I started at rock bottom in 2001, I have been able to create the success I now experience because of – all the errors and mistakes I went through, I believe I can help others to ‘skip’ these pitfalls and make speedier progress in this industry than I did.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Quite honestly, delivering and sharing free information anywhere and everywhere, I believe, is the best method to obtain the attention one seeks. I am not a salesperson, I couldn’t sell snow to an Eskimo! I believe in simple and honest sharing of valuable info to positively impact the audience that it is reaching.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Yes, humbly, write from your heart, not from your head. Write what you believe in, not what you think people want to hear. Big difference. I got very tangled up in the very beginning because everyone was dishing out varying opinions on what to write, how to write etc… And it became a minefield of contradiction. Eventually, I just pushed it all aside and went with my feelings.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
“When your green you grow – when you ripen, you rot” Mr. McDonald shared that.
What are you reading now?
The Autobiography of Bruce Springsteen “Born to run.”
What’s next for you as a writer?
My 3rd book is based on Mentoring Life Coaches to make the progressive leap from standard – to Superior in the industry.
If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and allowed to take 3 or 4 books with you what books would you bring?
I would bring “Republic” by Plato, ” Laozi” by Tao Te Ching and “No time like the future” by Michael J Fox.
