“…with his patience, attentive listening, kindness and straight-forward advice, I am a far more strategic, considered and impactful business leader”
“Before I began working with Sal I, like many other purpose-led entrepreneurs, was stuck in a cycle of over-commitment and burnout.
Over the course of six months Sal supported me in addressing numerous personal challenges that were affecting my work productivity and were, therefore, also affecting my business. These included past trauma, perfectionism, money mindset, and a lack of work-life balance. In addition to working through those issues, Sal introduced me to a number of highly effective self-regulation techniques. These have enabled me to gain clarity and identify what to focus on improving in both my work and personal life.
Each session with Sal yielded a valuable lesson that I continue to lean on. Overall, with his patience, attentive listening, kindness and straight-forward advice, I am a far more strategic, considered and impactful business leader. I am continuing to grow and am now building a new business within the sustainability space that is as sustainable for me as it is for my collaborators and clients. Thank you Sal. You are a true gem!

“…He has also helped me improve my ability to learn through self reflection, gain a much better understanding of my strategic thinking process needs, become more agile and confident in conflict situations, and dedicate more focus to the things that have the biggest business impact.”
As a senior director in a rapidly growing marketing agency, I found myself needing some help to develop the leadership skills and resilience required to do what was becoming an increasingly challenging job for me. After reviewing several local business coaches in Brighton, I came across Sal's website and was immediately struck by how much his content resonated with the challenges I had been facing.
Since starting my work with Sal over a year ago, I've been on a journey of huge personal and professional growth which has had an immensely positive impact on my life.
Sal has really helped me gain a better understanding of how my brain and thought patterns work, and how I can harness my natural abilities to achieve the best outcomes possible - whilst effectively managing the stress and anxiety that I had previously found hard to control. He has also helped me improve my ability to learn through self reflection, gain a much better understanding of my strategic thinking process needs, become more agile and confident in conflict situations, and dedicate more focus to the things that have the biggest business impact.
I was so impressed with the mindset progress I was making a few months in to our sessions that I decided to give his physical personal training service a try. This has also had a hugely positive impact on my life and is now a staple of my weekly routine.
If you are looking for a compassionate yet challenging coach who can prompt you to become a better leader at work - and happier, healthier and more confident person in general - then I can highly recommend Sal.”

“Sal is a powerful and positive presence with an infectious enthusiasm for life”
“Working with Sal has had a profound and transformative effect on many areas of my life, both personally and professionally. His coaching practice initially captured my attention because of his holistic approach that combines mind and body work, something that I'm drawn to and I was keen to find out more. Sal is a powerful and positive presence with an infectious enthusiasm for life. He is calm and focussed with an ability to get deep to the heart of a situation with razor sharp precision.
The process for me felt very intense at times, but Sal is full of good humour and fun and I left our sessions feeling energised and empowered. For me, the most significant change to my life has been rediscovering who I really am and having the strength to follow my intuition. The change in me has also prompted positive change in some of the people around me and that has been awe inspiring to witness. I am of the firm belief that there is no better investment than in something that allows you to live a better life. I will definitely work with Sal again as I continue to learn and grow.”

“…you can't work on just the mind or the body, you need to work on them both together. We matched up perfectly on that”
“I had a great 6 month stint working with Sal! I'm a strong believer that you can't work on just the mind or the body, you need to work on them both together. We matched up perfectly on that.
Sal helped me understand my bad habits and the things holding me back, especially professionally, using his expert knowledge of biology, psychotherapy, and human behaviour. Leaving his last session felt like leaving the hospital with our child. I came to the realisation that no one is going to handhold you through this next chapter, and at some point you have to take responsibility for improving yourself.
Things are going great, and I've no doubt I'll call upon his services again when I start to falter.”

“I wish I had learnt this years ago”
I initially arranged to see Sal to try and get to the bottom of the chronic tension which had been sabotaging my life for a very long time, and was holding me back in my new health and fitness training programme. Much to my astonishment, I came away with far, far more than I hoped for. Firstly, Sal is one of the few people I have ever met who has mastered the art of truly listening. Secondly he stays abreast of cutting-edge developments in the science of body movement and the mind.
I am very happy to report (and am still absolutely amazed) that we were able to uncover the VERY unexpected causes of the stress and tension which had touched so many areas of my life with its octopus-like stranglehold for so many years! Be prepared to have your old mindsets turned upside down in the quest to find your personal answers and solutions! This whole process has been a real education. I wish I had learnt this years ago.
In summary, he has provided some astonishing and important keys for me to press on towards my goals after feeling stuck for a very long time.”

“I have learnt some useful techniques to adopt in my new role together with a lot of new self-awareness which has brought about some very useful insights”
“Sal helped me when I was making a significant transition in my career leaving behind a long-established position and stepping into a new senior role; and I was feeling the nerves and more than a little self-doubt!
With his help, I have learnt some useful techniques to adopt in my new role together with a lot of new self-awareness which has brought about some very useful insights. I have no doubt these will help me move forward further in my career.”
I am so glad to have worked with Sal, as during this period he helped me to manage what was actually rather a difficult time with grace and confidence; he always gave me plenty to think about and reflect upon and I look forward to speaking with him again soon!

“…practical tools and tips to help improve my behaviours, communication and mindset”
“I reached out to Sal in March 2021 as I recognised I wanted to adopt a consistent approach to how I looked after my wellbeing. I was notorious for taking on too much in both work and life, burning out, resetting, feeling better but then repeating the cycle. I was often putting myself at the bottom of the pile on my ‘to do’ list.
My time with Sal was invaluable. Our sessions gave me the opportunity to bring real life challenges, deep dive into my engrained behaviours and discuss different ways of approaching them.
As a result, not only did I leave with practical tools and tips to help improve my behaviours, communication and mindset, but I also left with a refreshed perspective on what my priorities really are.”
Emma, Marketing Manager
“… I approach them very differently. I avoid burn out, make better decisions and maintain real work-life balance.”
I first engaged Sal to help me navigate the next stage of my career. Launch a new business or take the ‘safe’, employment route… I couldn’t decide.
2 years later we are still working together. The challenges keep coming, but I approach them very differently. I avoid burn out, make better decisions and maintain real work-life balance.

“Sal is the embodiment of the word empathy”
“To me Sal is the embodiment of the word empathy, which he uses to great effect in his coaching work which I've been supported by in the past year. His intuition is beyond that of anyone I've met before and when combined with his understanding of how our bodies work, his ability to release emotions and begin a healing process is second to none. Sal creates an incredibly safe feeling space in which to share, which means time flies and much is achieved every session. I've also benefitted from his practical attitude, so I've often left with an action plan that I can easily incorporate into my life. I've already recommended Sal on and will continue to do so".
