Trackside Mindset Coach

Ten seasons in the paddock taught me one thing: you don't fight nerves. You train them.

I coach motorcycle racers, racing drivers, and founders who operate under serious consequences. No corporate hype. No motivational speeches. Practical nervous system regulation built for the moment the visor drops.

Behind the pit wall

In 2016 I left a stressful 25-year corporate career and walked the Camino de Santiago. I'd turned 50 and knew I wanted a change but not what. A 550-mile walk across Spain in August sounded like a good start, and it was.

I didn't set out to be a coach. After early work with business leaders I realised I was meant to work with competitors who'd lost their edge. Riders stuck in their own heads, looking for consistency and confidence. So I went back to school and trained in peak performance and flow.

I decided I wanted to help a racer who'd lost his mojo find a second a lap.
