About James

James spent 22 years in corporate leadership, the last eight as a VP, before training as a coach. He works with high achievers whose success hasn't quieted their self-doubt — impostor feelings, visibility fears, the anxiety of the next level. Clients value his been-there candor and his refusal to let them shrink.

Coaching style: Candid, senior, quietly funny · 15 years of practice · 2,610 sessions completed.
