Burnout Recovery and Resilience Coach

About Me

I faced testicular cancer and came out the other side. I thought I knew what resilience looked like. But nothing prepared me for what came next

In 2019, I was working in HR, managing redundancy processes that could have cost me my own job. At the same time, my mum was diagnosed with terminal cancer, and within a short space of time, I lost both of my parents. I kept showing up, staying “professional,” and delivering at work, but inside I was anxious, exhausted, and disconnected from myself.

Eventually, the pressure caught up with me. Panic attacks, anxiety, and burnout forced me to stop pretending everything was fine. That breakdown became a turning point. Through coaching, NLP, hypnotherapy, and deep personal work, I rebuilt my confidence, resilience, and sense of self.

Now, I help other men do the same.

More About Me

Burnout Recovery Coaching

I coach men who look like they’re holding it together but feel like they’re falling apart. I’ve been there myself through cancer, loss and the pressure of keeping everything together while my own life unravelled.

My coaching is practical, straight-talking and built on lived experience and proven tools. Together, we’ll work to break the patterns that keep you trapped in burnout and slowly rebuild the self-belief and confidence that may have slipped away. You’ll have space to process the hard stuff without losing your edge, and the support to start feeling like yourself again. You don’t have to keep pretending you’re fine.

Coaching is a partnership that helps you cut through the noise, see things clearly, and make changes that last. It is not about me giving you advice. It is about working together to uncover what is holding you back and building the tools to move forward.

We will start with a conversation about where you are now and what you want to change. From there, I will create a plan that gives you structure, strategies, and support so you never feel like you are doing this on your own.

What People Say

Finding Matt and the support he offered me changed my mindset completely and the path I was taking. Starting my journey with Matt was scary at first, stepping into the unknown and like many others, those questions circulated my head. Is this really going to work? What can I learn about myself? From the first session, I knew Matt was the right person to help me through a very stressful time both in and out of work. His approach, knowledge and passion shone through and I have every trust in Matt to support me through any challenge now or in the future.

Ben Woolley

Talent Acquisition Manager

Matt was an amazing and profound help to me. He was patient, kind but assertive enough to give me feedback when I needed it. He has some amazing techniques to help me gain clarity on my thoughts and understand what’s stopping me – in both my personal and professional life.

Immediately after the sessions, I felt uplifted and like a weight was off my shoulders I can’t believe I was missing out on this for so long. Would recommend to anyone who isn’t feeling 100% fulfilled or who just wants more from life.”
