Happy Friday!

Back and ready to go after a wonderful trip to Thailand with my family.

Those who know me well know my love for travel and adventure.  I last spent time in Thailand in January 2005 very shortly after the 2004 Tsunami (whilst backpacking) – it was my last stop before returning back to the UK. It was an extremely difficult time and whilst I got to visit Bangkok and Ko Samui, I have been keen for many years to return and make new memories with my family in a beautiful country with such beautiful people.

We visited some of the places I had backpacked to but it was wonderful to visit so many new places together.  We did just some of the following – visited the Grand Palace, Wat Arun and Wat Po, enjoyed a Tuk Tuk ride, had a dinner boat cruise along the Chao Praya river, visited the Maeklong Railway Marekt and Damnoen Saduak Floating Market, explored China Town, ate in many food markets and some lovely Thai restaurants, got to spend time at the Samui Elephant Sanctuary and feed and walk with these beautiful animals, snorkelled, swam and explored the stunning Ang Thong National Marine Park, visited Koh Tan and Koh Madsum (spending time with the free roaming pigs) and also enjoyed some lovely pool and beach days too.

So very grateful to have built a business which enables me to take this time and travel. I am conscious of how fortunate our children are to do this, my first trip on a plane wasn’t until I was 16 years old and I don’t have memories of childhood holidays. We are working hard to instil in them; to appreciate our beautiful planet, explore, travel, be grateful and thankful for opportunities and to focus on collecting memories over possessions in life.

Excited for September and to be back working with my clients. Have a super weekend ahead!

Happy Friday!

I wanted to share this photo today which brings me so much happiness and joy.

Natalie Harvey PCC - CoDevelopYou and I delivered the first two-day module of a year long Leadership Development programme this week with the most wonderful team at the beautiful Attenborough Nature Centre in Nottingham.

This picture represents collaboration, deep trust and a shared appreciation of each others’ skills, strengths and experience. I’ve had a goal within my business over the last 18 months to collaborate more and work with brilliant coaches and consultants to deliver more to clients. I have known Natalie for near to 5 years through our coaching supervision and development group. She’s truly amazing at what she does and it’s a joy to work so closely with her to co-design and co-deliver this programme together.

It’s not easy to find this depth of connection and trust when you have built a business on your own for many years. I am so very grateful that you asked me to be part of this journey Natalie. You are simply brilliant to work with, an amazing talent and a wonderful human-being. I am so excited about the journey we have started with this incredible team and also for the opportunities we can create together to benefit future teams and businesses.

Thank you Delphine Koall 🇬🇧 🇫🇷for helping me to achieve my collaboration goal through your business development and planning sessions and to Simon Hague for bringing Nat and I together 5 years ago - so very grateful.

“Breakthroughs are rarely the work of one individual mind; they are the result of trusted partners asking better questions together.”

Have a super weekend ahead! 🌞

Happy Friday!

I love this quote and it’s holds so true for me in my work and in my life.

I have just completed the process of leasing and insuring an electric car through my business for the first time and have found the process complicated, tricky and extremely time-consuming. I have also learnt a huge amount in the process about EV government grants, charging options, GAP insurance, the difference between a keeper and an owner, leasing companies....I could go on!

Through this process when I have got stuck, I have reached out to some brilliant people who have helped me and let me ask any question! I am so grateful to the following...

Michael Ceillam Charlie Curson June Hogan Chartered MCIPD Sam Panayides Mark Panayides Paul W Wilson FPFS

If anyone needs help doing this in the future I am now fully equipped to help! I feel so grateful that I have such a wonderful community around me that are so willing to help and support.

Have a super weekend all!

Happy Friday!

Here is an after and before post full of learns, lots of mistakes, some successes and most importantly growth on all fronts!

I acquired an allotment in February. Here are some results five months on, along with a whole lot of learning.

I knew nothing about allotments, soil, planting, seeding, preparing the ground, the impact of weather - I really mean nothing!

Here’s what happened.... I read a book, watched some videos, learnt from my running coach who suggested this all in the first place, learnt from allotment holders, asked a ton of questions, listened, tried news things, brought a strimmer/brush cutter, tools, a manual mower and lots of seeds!

Five months later, I have potatoes, courgettes, cucumbers, lettuce, squashes, peas, leeks, apples and carrots growing. Some are doing really well, some not so well, some taste lovely, some taste awful!

Here’s what I have gained along the way.....

🍑Knowledge
🫛New connections
🍎Experience
🥔Patience
🥕Learning
🍓Appreciation for nature in a whole new light
🌳Fun
🐝Fitness
🪏Resilience
💪Determination

Definitely a real highlight of 2026 so far! It’s amazing what happens when you say YES to new opportunities and step totally out your comfort zone. I am aiming for an allotment pitch prize in 2027! 😆

Happy Friday!

What a lovely way to start July. I received this last week from the most brilliant client I have had the pleasure of working with over the last 6 months.

Her words sum up why I do what I do - helping brilliant individuals, teams and businesses to ‘step back, gain clarity and move forward with purpose’.

I’ve been working with a Business Development Coach over the last 4 months to help me further distil what I do, why it matters and how I want to fulfil my purpose for the next 10 years and beyond. It has helped me to really understand the difference and impact I make as a Leadership Accountability Coach and Consultant.

If you’d like to find out more about how I work with clients and the results I help them to achieve, I’d love to have a chat. You can book an initial introductory call via my website, drop me an email or give me a call.

Thank you Sarah Lyons for your kind words and for giving me permission to share this too. The most wonderful example of a brilliant coachee - a complete joy to know you and a pleasure to work with you.

Have a super weekend all and enjoy the sun!

I was working with a new client this week and we were using one of the tools in the Arch inspire ‘Rainbow Collection’ pocket book. They commented that they had already shared two tools from the book with a team member and had achieved great results. When clients sign up for a 5C’s or 3C’s programme, part of their welcome pack includes ‘The Rainbow Collection’ pocket book which houses all nine of ‘The Happy Friday Collection’ guides.

I wanted to remind you all that these guides are available through the members area of the Arch inspire website. It takes less than a minute to sign up and you’ll also get access to ‘The Happy Friday Reels’ so it’s worth a visit.

The guides continue to help so many of my clients - they have also been able to share them within their businesses and with family members and friends. This was the purpose behind the guides - to give as many people as possible access to tools, techniques and challenges to drive personal and professional development and growth. I also really like helping and giving so please share this post with your networks and communities.

Happy Friday! Last weekend we saw Harry Styles at Wembley... incredible concert, unforgettable ending!

As we left, we discovered our car was leaking what looked like diesel. AI helped us find a safe place to stop, but after a long wait for breakdown assistance, we ended up spending four hours in a Tesco car park before finally getting home at 4:30am.

A few takeaways:
✔️ Use every resource available.
✔️ In a crisis, a human voice matters.
✔️ Think about the safety of others too.
✔️ Kindness makes all the difference.
✔️ Humour keeps you going.
✔️ Always pack a phone battery pack!

The biggest lesson? We stayed calm, worked brilliantly as a team, and were reminded just how kind people can be—from firefighters to our Uber driver.

My 15-year-old even called it one of her “top 10 life adventures”! Not quite the ending we planned, but definitely one we’ll never forget.

And yes... Harry Styles was absolutely worth it. 💚✨

Happy Friday!

Further to my recent post on purpose and the importance of WHY, I have been reflecting this week on the importance of your clients and colleagues understanding HOW you work and how you are to work with.

I received two client recommendations this week and some of the words they used to describe me hit home….

*Knowledgeable 
*Organised
*Exceptionally easy to work with
*Enthusiastic
*Professional 
*Committed
*Strategic
*Passionate
*Positive

Lisa Steward captured this visual for me just under a year ago now which captures feedback from my clients on HOW I am to work with.

It’s a great exercise to get both colleagues and clients to describe how you are to work with – it will be one of the core reasons clients choose you and it will tell you what colleagues feel and think about you too.

Here are 5 key questions that can help you do this to understand HOW you impact others

1. What is it like to work with me on a day-to-day basis?
2. Describe my core attributes 
3. Which of my attributes would you like to see more of and why?
4. When I am at my best, how am I to work with?
5. Which 10 words would you use to describe how it feels to work with me?

It’s also a great opportunity to gain feedback on areas to develop and improve.
Annabel Gray and Lisa Johnson thank you for your kind words this week - it’s such a pleasure to know you both and work with you.

Happy Friday!

A month into year eleven and I thought I’d share this visual which summarises Arch inspire’s solutions and WHY people work with me. This week I have been designing an exciting new programme and fulfilling one of my key goals of ‘Collaboration with brilliant coaches and consultants’. We have been challenging ourselves heavily on the WHY of the programme, its’ purpose, objectives, required outcomes and success measures.

I am a big fan of Simon Sinek, his book ‘Start with Why’ is a firm favourite of mine. I’m also working with a coach on this very topic (my WHY for Arch inspire) as I consider my strategy and plan for the next 10 years.

We can often find it hard to communicate our WHY with conviction and confidence. It’s a key area I work on with many clients.

So why do people work with me and Arch inspire?

*I have over 20 years of Leadership experience and expertise
*I have built, led, managed and coached teams for over 10 years so I ‘get it’
*I have high energy
*I am an ‘empathetic challenger’ with a values driven approach
*I am structured, thoughtful, practical and results focused
*I work at all levels in organisations (strategic, tactical, operational)
*I listen to understand first and foremost
*I question with purpose and intent
*I cut through the noise to find the key issues and opportunities
*I have high integrity - if I cannot help with something I will refer and recommend someone else/something that will help and I’m always open to learning
*I bring fun and humour
*I am certified and qualified to do what I do
*I love to learn
*I’m absolutely passionate about helping individuals, teams and businesses be the best they can be
*I care deeply about my work

Take 10 mins today and ask yourself this question - Why do people work with me and what difference do I make?

If you struggle to answer this question, get in touch and I’d be happy to share some tools and techniques that can help develop your confidence, conviction and the articulation of your WHY.

Thank you to Lisa Steward for your on-going design expertise too.

Happy Friday!

This picture was taken last week, when as a family we embarked on a hot air balloon adventure. The shadow of the balloon is us over the beautiful Warwickshire countryside!  I’ve thought a lot about the experience since and also about perspective. 

Much of the time we can feel immersed in the
day-to-day - running from task to task, solving problems, making decisions, juggling work and life but our growth and learning often comes from changing perspectives, stepping back, pausing, reflecting and focusing ON as opposed to IN.

Imagine stepping into a hot air balloon, as you rise above the landscape, things that may have weighed heavily on your mind as you started or ended your day can start to fit into a bigger picture. You can see the paths, patterns, possibilities and opportunities that weren’t visible from the ground where you were immersed in overload, issues, obstacles and decisions.

When we were up in the air the only sound I could hear were the lambs, it was one of the most beautiful and most present experiences I have ever had.  It helped me to truly appreciate our beautiful planet and to feel grateful for all we have.  It has also helped me to gain perspective on so many things since.

Today I encourage you to lift yourself above the day-to-day doing, if only for 10 minutes and ask yourself:

✔️What is really important?
✔️Where am I making progress?
✔️What am I missing because I’m too close to it?

A little altitude can afford a lot of clarity!

Huge thanks to Phil’s wonderful colleagues and friends at Quilter Cheviot for this amazing experience. 💚

Have a super weekend ahead.
