As part of his Marketing Coaching role, Mark focuses in on the personal development of clients too. His aim is to help every client to BE their truly authentic self and LIVE their life on purpose, rather than simply just DO stuff because they should. He finds great satisfaction when working with people who are helping others to lead happier, more fulfilling lives – be they coaches, charities or complementary therapists.
