Breathwork-Based Coaching

for Calm, Clear Leadership Under Pressure

This personalised coaching and mentoring approach combines practical leadership development with breathwork-based nervous system regulation – helping you build greater clarity, resilience, self-awareness, and effectiveness under pressure, from the inside out.

Who This Is For

For Professionals

Feeling the weight of constant pressure, deadlines, or change
Wanting practical tools to stay calm, focused, and effective at work
Looking to build resilience and clarity before stepping into more responsibility

For Newly Promoted Leaders

Navigating the shift into managing others for the first time
Needing to lead with clarity and composure under pressure
Wanting a practical framework, not just advice, for staying grounded as the role gets heavier.

What We Work On

Based on the Calm In Storm Leadership System.

This system pairs personal leadership development with breathwork as the engine for nervous system regulation — not as an add-on, but as the practical tool that makes the leadership work stick. Each engagement begins with an exploration of your current environment, challenges, and pressure points, including:

i3 personality profile assessment and feedback session
identifying individual stress triggers
understanding pressure points within the role
recognising behavioural and communication patterns under stress
identifying obstacles and development areas
exploring current performance and interpersonal challenges

This process builds self-awareness and forms the foundation for tailored coaching. From there, sessions are aligned to your specific needs, goals, and leadership context, with practical breathing techniques woven throughout to regulate the nervous system and support a calmer, more focused mental state.

How It Works

1-on-1 sessions (online or in-person)
6 x 60 minute sessions, flexible coaching frequency
Begins with an i3 personality profile session for a more personalised approach
Tailored to your individual needs
Each session is practical, with simple breathwork tools to help you stay calm and focused

Testimonials

I wasn’t familiar with much coaching prior to working with Gary. In the beginning I wasn’t sure what to expect, but Gary has possibly given me the best coaching I could’ve asked for. The information and coaching has played itself out over the years, and to date I feel extremely confident in applying the thinking behind all the sessions I have had with him. I genuinely have to thank Gary a lot for his coaching for where I find myself today.

What a pleasure it was to work with Gary — he really helped me in a time where I was in need of guidance. What really impressed me are his active listening skills where he gave me his undivided attention and provided me with tools that elevated my way of thinking and the way I perceived myself, as well as the way in which I take on my ‘future’ head on. He provided me with a sense of agency, and allowed me to view the uncertainty in a positive light!

When I enlisted Gary’s services I had no idea what to expect. Although I’d been following his videos for a while, this was my first foray into the world of life-coaching. I desperately needed someone to assist me with getting out of a few problem areas. Gary guided me towards a position from where I could re-energise myself, among other things. He certainly asked the questions I needed to hear, and also answer for myself. I see these sessions as an investment in myself, and forging ahead with more clarity. I can easily recommend booking Gary.
