"Day 5 completed - I was a late bloomer but l feel myself indeed opening up beautifully. Can really feel the practice helping me maintain presence through the day and delivers me a real sense of having actively taken control of the habit patterns of my mind, especially in the face of differing views and divisions as we are all no doubt experiencing....finding acceptance is proving much easier than before I started. Thank you Lisa for creating this space for us to share and grow."

“We engaged James to support with team wellbeing sessions during the UK Covid lockdown. What we experienced was a beautiful, serene and powerful practice which have helped to authentically connect us, to slow us down, to unlock our best and has developed into a sustaining practice, which is no doubt supporting our performance. I can thoroughly recommend for anyone wanting to ensure high performance and promoting organisational wellbeing.”

"James is warm, connected, mature, wise, and highly experienced.
James is a very special mix of business experience and personal & spiritual evolution. He has an incredible background of achievement in the technology world. And in this last decade, he has also developed himself to be a powerful trainer, facilitator & coach so that he can pass on what he has learnt. In all that he does, he brings warmth, kindness, depth & wisdom.
I met James at University, then partnered with him attending & then co-delivering personal development courses. Highly recommend."

"I've had the immense pleasure and honour to know James since March 2016. He attended a couple of our programs (including the Advanced Practitioner one) and we have been connected ever since. He seems to have always had a natural affinity for the human dimension, whether it was in his coaching work or with Civica International. He has a deep ability to understand how people function and in a graceful and thoughtful way, help them find how to be at their best. The significant professional accomplishments (government tenders) that he led for Civica shows his ability to use those skills broadly and to great impact.
As a student of the human dimension, he was always curious and open and looking for what he did not know versus showcasing his knowledge. He is a deep soul that continues to do great work, make a difference and stay steadfast to his own learning journey.
I could not recommend James highly enough to anyone who needs a deeply skilled coach or an effective and human business leader for large, complex projects."

"I worked with James for almost 20 years, firstly as his peer in the UK, and then as his manager in Australia. James key skill is people, which he naturally draws towards himself, engaging and inspiring along the way. In a sales capacity this changes detractors into promoters and advocates into staunch advocates. From a team perspective, James’ deploys the skills for teams to be inspired, collaborate and follow. When you combine this with his skills to sell large complex technology deals, amazing things happen. In my experience the amazing things which James made happen were new business deals worth between AU$5-75 million. James continuously invests in his own skills, using much of his annual leave to better understand the human mind, which in turn improves his value to his employer’s."
