"When I first met Feldon, I hadn't yet started to take action towards my dreams. When I started receiving regular mentoring calls from him and being held accountable, it gave me that push to start taking action. I am surprised by how similar our experiences are as entrepreneurs."
My journey
Where I came from.
And why I coach.
A story that starts earlier than most. And gets more honest along the way.
I didn't wait for permission and overcome obstacles on the way
I started my first business when I was in secondary school; most people my age were still figuring out what they wanted to study for A levels. Starting a baking business outside of school and utilising my bus fare to run a shop from my school bag. That was a choice, and it came with everything you'd expect. The excitement. The mistakes. The moments of genuine progress, and the moments where it all felt like it was going backwards
Raised in the West Midlands, left halfway across the country to the south, I missed the West Midlands buzz, community and diversity, so I moved back. Returning, reconnecting with the community, and being a proud #Brumbassidor.
35 businesses later. Not all of them worked.
I've now started 35 businesses. They haven't all worked. That's the bit most coaches won't tell you. But it's also the bit that matters most. Because you don't get real business knowledge from the ones that went smoothly. You get it from figuring out what went wrong and what you'd do differently next venture.
I've worked on businesses from quick-win side hustles to rocky escapes and national businesses. Delivering talks at the Birmingham Library, online webinars and universities. Being in the right place and right time with the right people who are trying to build something impactful.
I got tired of watching talented people get stuck.
It came from watching talented, motivated people get stuck in exactly the same places. Not because they lacked ability, but because no one had helped them turn what was in their head into a structured plan.
That's what I do. And that's why I do it.
