Wow... what an amazing journey with Max!!!
Amazing work, professionalism, understanding, support, kindness, straight talking along with recommendations.
I can honestly say, if you asked me in December 2024 if I was in a good place, happy and content in life, the straight answer would be NO. Followed up with, my life is a mess, I hate myself, alcohol controlling me, financial worries, mental and physical health all over the place.
I am absolutely delighted with my progress and achievements thus far. I love the new me, my mindset and my life.
The support, guidance, communication, knowledge, understanding and skills provided by Max has been exceptional.
I could go on and on...
I am so happy.
Max - THANK YOU!!! You are an amazing man, life coach.

"I started coaching with Max following a very difficult period of time at work. I was feeling stressed, burnt out and unenthusiastic about things both at work and at home. I found I was consoling myself with thinking things would get better or quieten down ‘next week’ or maybe just stopping being a lawyer altogether was the solution. I faced challenges such as questioning my own abilities and resilience, lacking confidence and feeling trapped in a situation outside of my control.
Max’s support has been transformational for me with his encouraging listening and asking the right insight-inducing questions at just the right time. I always came away from our coaching sessions invigorated and Max was always on hand for flexible WhatsApp conversations for things that happened between sessions.
Through a range of thought exercises and tools/strategies, I have been able to reduce my stress
levels considerably and now I always feel like I have a plan of action to rely on when any situation (old or new) arises. I am now much better at setting boundaries, delegating effectively and adopting a positive and healthy mindset towards work. I see opportunities where I previously saw challenges.
I have much more headspace available, allowing me to be more productive, a more effective leader and to switch off and enjoy things outside of work. I am truly grateful for Max’s input and guidance and feel very confident it has set me on the right track for my personal and professional growth and for the journey ahead."

“I didn't have the confidence to know I could make a success of the business, I was also starting a new, higher level job and wanted to work with someone who would help me find that belief, among other things, within myself (teach a man to fish...etc).
Max has been incredible. Our sessions are always incredibly powerful and useful.
I now feel more confidence, my business is thriving, I feel more comfortable within myself and my decisions and have numerous tools to navigate difficult times. I am becoming the best version of myself.
His support between sessions is great too, with whatsapp chats and voice notes and regular check ins. This has been a game changer for me.
My business thrives, I am doing well at work, I am finding my own, confident path and I've only been working with Max a few months. I cannot recommend him highly enough and if you're considering working with Max, just do it, it will be one of the best decisions you ever made.”

“I had the immense treasure of crossing paths with Max Wilson, a compassionate and intuitive coach who helped me to shift my trajectory in a way I did not even recognise I needed. In our life-changing coaching session[s], Max held space for me with such genuine care and presence that I felt safe enough to express something I had never spoken out loud to anyone before - that I no longer need to carry the weight of everyone and everything. For the first time, I gave myself permission to choose me- to acknowledge my own needs without hiding behind a mask that covers feelings of shame or guilt.
Max did not just coach me; he created a moment of profound transformation. If you are looking for a coach who truly gets it, who can meet you where you are and gently walk with you toward where you want to be, Max is this person.”

“I've been working with Max Wilson for the past three months, and his support has been invaluable.
I came to Max feeling stuck, unsure of my next steps. With his help, I now feel much freer and more confident in making big decisions that will benefit me greatly. I've already started putting these into action, which is a testament to Max’s guidance. I really value Max's ability to listen. I tend to ramble, but he manages to capture the key points, pull out the most important insights, and use them to keep me on track. His advice is always thoughtful, practical, and tailored to my personal goals.
Max helps me find the answers within myself. t’s rare to have the time and space to really focus on your own development, and Max creates that environment in a way that is both supportive and challenging. He is clearly passionate about what he does which really comes across when we're working together. I'm really grateful for all the help he has given me so far.”

His care, non-judgment, and compassionate yet confident guidance have been invaluable in helping me identify priorities and practical steps as I navigate different areas of my life. Through his attentive presence, active listening, insightful questions, and thoughtful exercises, Max has been a catalyst in reawakening self-belief in my dreams, and identifying consistent, manageable, yet significant steps to realise them. Our sessions help empower me to move towards living an inspired life aligned with my core values and authentic self. I always leave our sessions feeling more alive! It is a gift to work with Max.”

Max has provided me with numerous skills to help me to secure my dream job. Our sessions were specifically focused on managing interviews with confidence and no nerves.
Throughout the coaching sessions we have had meaningful and deep conversations around how to answer typical and tricky interview questions in a structured way providing clear examples from my experience. Outside of this, we have put in a lot of work around self belief and confidence in general and this has played an instrumental role in my progress and development.
Before I had coaching with Max I was experiencing low motivation, frustration with low confidence and struggling to confidently manage job interviews and presentations.
Max supported me through a number of outstanding mentoring and coaching sessions, including plenty of encouragement, challenging questions and scenarios to increase my confidence and self belief to get me ready for my job interviews.
Throughout the journey, I gained more confidence, learned to slow down, and use intonation.
Now I feel happier, more positive, and calmer in interview settings.
Highly recommend Max for any mentoring and coaching!

“Max's coaching style is the epitome of calm assurance. From the moment I began working with him, I felt a sense of ease that allowed me to open up about my past and current challenges without hesitation. The welcoming environment he creates is unparalleled, making it effortless to speak openly and honestly.
Max’s ability to listen deeply and relay insights is truly remarkable. He doesn’t just hear what you’re saying; he understands and distils it, highlighting crucial elements that you might have overlooked. His guidance has been instrumental in helping me discover alternative solutions and personalised strategies to tackle my issues.
What sets Max apart is his profound ability to evoke genuine reactions from within. His approach is both affirming and transformative, drawing out the deepest parts of me and fostering significant personal growth. I am incredibly grateful for his assistance and feel honoured to have benefited from his wisdom.
Max's teachings have equipped me with valuable tools that I will continue to use in my future endeavours. I wholeheartedly recommend his coaching to anyone facing challenges or seeking to achieve their goals. Everyone deserves to experience the calm and insightful coaching space that Max provides. His sincere and effective guidance can truly make a difference in your life."”

“The space Max creates allows me to open up and feel that I can talk about anything in the world without being judged. His calm presence keeps me focused on myself, but his questions do not allow me to wander off the path. As a result, consistent victories emerge...new insights and 'aha' moments arise, and a constant feeling of getting closer to the image of myself and my life that I want to achieve ”

“I have been working with Max for 6 months and in that short time I have found our sessions invaluable. Amidst a lot of confusion and a difficult life transition, I was feeling very lost at the start of our work together. I have now addressed a lot of the challenges I brought to our sessions initially, I have made a lot of progress and my mood has improved a lot! I am starting to see a way forward in my life again after feeling stuck for a very long time. Max is a wonderful coach with a lot of patience and sensitivity and I have really enjoyed working with him.”

I feel blessed to have come across Max when I did, especially during some big changes in my life. As someone who has worked with a lot of coaches. Not all are the same, and I can share that I have also found working with coaches challenging. Not in the way of being challenged which growth requires, but in being able to bring more of my authentic self to the sessions. Hence not feeling a sense of any transformation with other coaches. I have since realized that alignment to the right coach is everything.
I found that Max's ability to be present, and engaged whilst also reflecting things I've said back to me has helped so much in helping understand where I'm at, and to see myself in a much clearer way. Max creates a safe space to share my thoughts, and what's coming up during sessions without judgement. I've not worked with a coach long term before. Yet, after already working together for the past few months. I have signed up for block coaching. I highly recommend Max for his genuine gift/ability to coach, & ask really great questions and be that transformative space for anyone who needs it.”

“After having worked with Max for number of months I have gained a wealth of insights that have supported me on my personal and professional journey. Whatever the goal of my sessions, and these have been many and varied, I have gained clarity, insight and perspective, and formulated next steps and actions to take. Most importantly I feel confident and excited to take these actions. Max is consistently professional whilst providing a comfortable, safe and held space to share inner most thoughts, limiting beliefs as well as goal’s and dreams. Max will combine professional skills and knowledge with passion, insights and challenges to help you realise your goal. No matter what I bring to the session, I always finish amazed by the progress I have made that he has supported and facilitated. Max is an exceptional coach and I feel immensely grateful to have the opportunity to work with him.”

“I am glad to have worked with Max and have absolutely no regrets. I feel quite like a new person; having gained clarity and started on my journey to more confident and purposeful living.
Max is down-to-earth which makes him ‘approachable’ and has a calm demeanor that unavoidably creates a haven of trust and understanding. He listens intently not just to the words you speak but to the emotions beneath them as well. I found this heartening.
By far, what stood out for me were the questions. His line of questioning has this amazing ability to unearth the deepest layers of one’s limitations. He gently guides you through a process of introspection which gradually fuels healing. He nudges you ever so lightly but so tactfully too so you can unpack your own box(es). His sessions are not just moments of reflection but transformative experiences.
The answers often lie within us but also quite importantly, we need the right questions and at times the right people to ask us those questions in order to get the answers. Max without difficulty and in all skillfulness fits into that role…. I am grateful that at the end of the day I can see clearer now.”
