Before working with Michael, I struggled with imposter syndrome, especially in my career. I constantly felt like I didn’t belong, that I wasn’t qualified to be trading with senior brokers. This mindset affected my career progression and confidence. I wasn’t able to take the initiative and push for senior roles, and this lack of self-belief started to take a toll on my personal life too. I questioned whether I deserved the success I had and whether I could ever match my father’s high level of achievement.

I met Michael after a tragic event when a close colleague passed away. The CEO of my company, who had immense respect for Michael, suggested I reach out to him, claiming that Michael had played a key role in his own success. Trusting this recommendation, I contacted Michael and started working with him. From our first consultation, Michael focused on identifying my weaknesses and creating a plan to help me become the best version of myself.

As we worked together, my confidence grew. I started believing I belonged on the team, scheduling meetings with senior people, and seeing rapid career progression. This newfound confidence also improved my relationships at work and at home. I became more social, engaged with colleagues, and built stronger relationships, which were key to my career success.

Post-programme, I’m a different person. I now look in the mirror and think, “I’m the damn man.” The confidence I gained from working with Michael has transformed every aspect of my life.

Michael also taught me to appreciate the small details. For example, after hearing a story from him about making a date special by knowing the names of restaurant staff, I used the same approach to arrange an exceptional lunch for clients in Geneva. The attention to detail made a huge impact.

Financially, my primary goal with Michael was to increase my income. When I started, I wasn’t advancing or earning what I should have been. After working with him, I reached the exact financial position I had hoped for. The return on investment has been immense, and I now have the confidence and strategy to continue progressing.

Initially, I questioned whether life coaching would be worth the cost. Now, looking back, the value I’ve gained far outweighs the price. Michael’s guidance has truly transformed my life, and I would highly recommend his coaching.
