ABOUT THE TEEN COACH
So I want to keep this brief so I donʼt put you all to sleep! In time I will tell you a little bit more about myself and how my life has unfolded-but for now heres a quick snap shot of my life and why I have decided to start helping people.
I grew up in a pretty average family, we werenʼt “rich” and we werenʼt “poor” At age 9 my parents called it quits and I remember all the terrible moments that situation created very well.
Going through high school being raised by my Mum, I was faced with all the “peer group pressure” scenarios that teenagers are undoubtedly faced with today-should I have alcohol, should I have drugs, who should I be friends with, does that girl like me, why havenʼt I got many friends etc etc Another big thing for me as
I look back is I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life- and because of this I was often getting report cards from teachers saying things like “Jim needs to pay more attention” or “Jim is constantly looking to push the boundaries”. What can I say -I wasnʼt the perfect student! But as I have discovered-if we donʼt know what we want in life how can we make a plan to get there? Think about that for a moment. But more on that later!
Fast forward 25 years and I have been running a Hospitality Staffing Agency on the Sunshine Coast for 10 years now. I am now in a position to have someone run that for me and concentrate on helping people-improve their lives-in whatever areas they want help with! I am in the middle of an intensive 2 year Life Coaching qualification to further my knowledge , and as those of you that meet me will find out-personal success – happiness- fulfilment has been my obsession for 25 years now ! I have spent over 10,000 hours reading about this subject- those that get a chance to meet with me will see my book collection and fully appreciate that this isnʼt a “recent hobby” of mine
And in a nutshell I want each year for you-to be better than the last one.
