In 2020 I ran research on how we successfully navigate our way through change by interviewing 108 people in 27 different countries. I gathered so many stories that they turned into 18 months of weekly blog posts. There are 70+ articles here for your delectation plus feedback on my blog here.

I’ve crafted this into a book called Swim Jump Fly: A Guide to Changing Your Life and you can read a digital sample or buy a full copy here. New coaching clients will get a copy for free – find out more about working with me here.

Readers have been saying lovely things:

  • “Your own change coach in book form”
  • “Wish I’d read this years ago”
  • “Inspiring and motivating. Definitely buy this book!”
  • “I found this book a brilliant guide to helping me make changes in my life. I hope it helps you too”
  • “A great read full of inspiration and wisdom”
  • “A clever warm hearted book”
  • “Intelligent, authentic observations, written with clarity and charm”
  • “A wonderful book which asks powerful questions”… there’s more here.
