I work with individuals and teams who want to step out of autopilot and live with greater awareness, integrity, and choice.

The Enneagram offers a mirror. Emotional agility builds the capacity to respond rather than react.

“Brett's unique skill lies in creating a space of safety and compassion, allowing those around him, including myself, to confront and embrace our inner challenges with grace. His intuitive approach has enabled me to view aspects of myself with more compassion and acceptance, facilitating significant personal changes.” Ian Thomson

“Brett has been a pillar in my whirlwind of emotions and personalities. I’m not sure how, but he has a way of creating trust from the first meeting. Every time I speak to him, I feel safe and not judged, and he has a better understanding of me. He displays a true appreciation for people and shows that in the way he listens with compassion, making you feel that you’re not alone.” Marike

“Brett is a calm and safe space. He provides a shoulder and an ear when my mind is full of confusing stories and, with grounding kindness and (often) playfulness, challenges these stories and helps me write new ones. He is a people grower in the best way.” Sarah


 

This work is for people who sense there is more available to them than habitual patterns and surface-level coping. It is grounded, relational, and deeply human. It invites honesty without pressure, and growth without force.

Coaching & Facilitation

I support individuals, leaders, and teams who want to understand themselves more clearly and engage with life and work in a more conscious way.

My approach integrates emotional agility, the Enneagram, and whole-person wellbeing. The work is practical and embodied, while also making room for complexity, vulnerability, and meaning.

Working with Teams and Leaders

With teams and leaders, the focus is on emotional intelligence, communication, and mature engagement with conflict and change.

The aim is not performance at all costs, but cultures where people can function well without losing themselves.

Working One on One

One to one coaching offers a more intimate space.

Here, we explore inner narratives, emotional patterns, and habitual responses with honesty and care, creating room for healthier choices and a more aligned way of living.

Shared Foundation

Across all of my work, the emphasis is not on fixing or pushing, but on developing awareness, emotional resilience, and the capacity to meet life with greater steadiness and choice.

This is work for people who are willing to meet themselves truthfully and grow with grace.

 

Brett didn’t “fix” me. He gave me the mechanisms, the structure, and the awareness to build healthy outlets for my emotions and become the functional, grounded person I am today.

I can say without exaggeration that I am a completely different man in 2026 than I was in 2021. And that transformation began with one question, one insight, and one coach who saw more in me than I saw in myself.

I love Brett dearly. He changed my life.
