Skippering and Helmsperson Tuition


As you can probably tell from the imagery on my website, another part of my work is boating on the inland waterways of the UK. I have been involved with the inland waterways and boating since my early teens (eek over 30 years, where has that time gone!), working on trip and restaurant boats as well as hotel boats, traveling all over the UKs inland waterways network. After a break away from the water for some years as I pursued my career, when I entered my own midlife transition, I realised that it was time to come back home to the water and ensure this passion was absolutely a part of the next half of life alongside my coaching work!
It is a pleasure to combine this passion with my coaching work and whenever I get the chance, the two often combine, the tranquility and peacefulness of these ribbons of water that criss-cross our land, offer up a spaciousness and a different pace of life....
Testimonials
”Not sure I can put into words how much a positive impact Roger's coaching has had on my life! Around 4 years ago, he helped me navigate a difficult period of change and transition. As I recently found myself entering a new and scary territory once again, it felt right to return for some coaching. I have just finished the second session of my coaching package and the difference in how I feel already is just amazing. His support, guidance and remarkable ability to help me identify where exactly I want to be (and how to get there) is just so powerful. Rather than feeling confused, overwhelmed and lost, I now have clarity and feel excited, focused and determined to meet my future goals.”
- Linda Shearman, Founder and Psychotherapeutic counsellor at Sakaura Pathways Counselling
”Roger has been my lifecoach since 2021 and I can say without hesitation that the coaching services he provides is excellent on so many levels that have helped me to grow personally and professionally over the last 4 years. Roger takes a personalised "guide by your side" approach to helping you define and meet your life goals, from career and finances to health and relationships. In addition, a core element weaved into the coaching sessions is mindfulness and spending time in nature in order to pause and reflect on your goals and resilience for meeting them. Roger provides an array of techniques to help you deal with life's varying demands in a pragmatic way with regular check-ins to ensure you are progressing as planned. I found I was able to take a bird's eye view of where I am in life, my achievements, areas for improvement and next steps. Roger's kind and empathetic approach enables you to freely express yourself and engage with a diverse range of ideas, options and solutions. This is so valuable in enabling you to strengthen your focus and gain the most from the coaching sessions. So if you are at a juxtaposition in life or simply wanting to steer in a more well-defined direction with some well-needed support, then I strongly recommend you begin your journey by contacting Roger.”
