Owner

Better You Pt

Established Better You Mind, Body and Soul as passionate about coaching people to feel the best version of themselves.Developed the business by: creating the brand; recruiting and building relationships with clients to boost morale and increase retention; delivering bespoke personal training and group training sessions both face-to-face and online; conducted staff wellness sessions with large companies such as Amazon and BPAS; developing and curating online content through the Better You Mind, Body and Soul YouTube channel.In doing the above, I have built upon my excellent communication skills through a range of media and working with clients from a variety of backgrounds. I have also been able to underpin my approach with theoretical models and frameworks to support the clients and business. For example, the Kurt Lewin change model to help change client’s current behaviours and freeze new behaviours so the new behaviour becomes second nature. The Appreciative Inquiry method is also used to focus on what the client currently does well, as this promotes positivity, confidence and helps clients stay focused.Furthermore, I carry out ongoing SWOT and PESTLE analysis’ to identify internal and external factors that could affect the Better You business and any potential changes needed e.g. the impact of Covid-19.Client retention has been a huge priority and having a constant waiting list assures me that I have the right process and methodologies in place.
