About the Coach
Meet Mike
I’m Mike, the founder of Gravitational Shift Coaching.
People often tell me the first thing they notice when they work with me is the calm, relaxed space I bring. A space where they can slow down, think clearly, and speak honestly, sometimes about things they’ve not said out loud before.
As we work together, something else tends to happen too. I’ll ask the questions they already know need asking.
I’m genuine, open-minded, and supportive, and I care deeply about helping people move forward in ways that feel right for them.
How I Work
Coaching with me isn’t about being told how to live your life. You already know more about you than anyone else ever could.
It’s also not about endlessly digging into the past.
Instead, our work focuses on clarity, confidence, and direction. We explore who you are, what matters to you, and where you want to go, and we look at what’s been getting in the way.
That often means letting go of old beliefs, patterns, or emotions you no longer need to carry forward. It can bring moments of real insight, relief, and renewed confidence.
This work does require commitment. I work best with people who are ready to make changes and take responsibility for their own growth. I’ll support you fully, but the bravery to move forward has to come from you.
Who I Work Best With
I feel most at home working with people who want change but feel unsure about their next step.
That might include people who:
- feel stuck despite life looking “fine” on paper
- are navigating a major life change
are reassessing work, purpose, or direction - are approaching or adjusting to retirement
- have experienced loss or a shift in family life
You don’t need all the answers before we talk.
You just need a willingness to explore what’s next.
Experience That Shapes My Coaching
I spent around 30 years in a traditional career before realising I wanted more meaning and purpose in my work.
That journey led me to volunteer with the Samaritans in 2012, an experience that deeply shaped how I listen, how I support people, and how seriously I take trust. From there, coaching training opened the door to leadership development and, ultimately, focused life coaching.
Across my professional career, volunteering, sport, and family life, I’ve been a leader, mentor, and supporter in many different settings. Those experiences taught me not to judge, to stay curious, and to remember that we never truly know what someone else is carrying.
As a coach, I’m proud that people feel safe with me, able to talk openly and honestly about whatever they’re facing.
Let’s Talk
If you’re looking for someone calm, genuine, and gently challenging — someone who will support you while helping you move forward, we should talk.
The best place to start is a relaxed introductory call.
No pressure. Just a conversation.
