About Us

Impact Coaching

We have a passion for a mental fitness training method that makes a real difference in terms of understanding why we feel and behave the way we do and how we may impact others.

If you want to achieve ‘world class’ in anything you’ve got to get the basics right and that starts with you! If you are willing to commit and are motivated to put in the work, then we want to help you.

We can give you the tools to get better at things like:

Performance under pressure
Regulating emotions – keeping an ‘even keel’
Staying confident
Mental resilience
Finding the enjoyment and fun again
Self-awareness
Positive interactions

You will be empowered to be a better business person, leader, partner, family/team member.

Our Vision

To empower a network of people to practice mental fitness like physical fitness so they can achieve their full potential, become happier versions of themselves, and help everyone to make a great environment to live and work in. We believe that everyone can be happier and perform better if they know why they aren’t yet, how they can be, and what they can do about it.

Our Mission

To make a positive impact, a real tangible difference to the sustained improved performance and happiness of everyone we work with – and inspire them to do the same.
