I help entrepreneurs, creative industry professionals and leaders find relief from their struggle with self-doubt, imposter syndrome and creative blocks.
My coaching provides you with the clarity and confidence to move forward, overcome your fear of failure, and make the change that you need to live a fulfilling life.
Together we discover what the problem really is; what barriers you are holding up, and identify ways to move forward in purposeful action.
If you’re looking for tangible solutions to get you unstuck, and move on to new possibilities, I can help. I will support you to find your vision and bring about real, meaningful change.
Self-doubt and imposter syndrome can show up everywhere.
They show up when you are changing your career, starting your own business or when you reach mid-life and start asking, “what have I actually achieved?”
If you’re constantly thinking that you’re winging it, maybe its time to explore how?
Are you actually denying your own experience and achievements?
Perhaps they lie there under the surface, sneakily misinforming you, Constantly thinking, “I’m not good enough” stops you from creating and enjoying the work you want to produce.
Do you find yourself endlessly procrastinating about what you are going to do? But then you never actually get around to doing whatever ‘it’ is.
If left unchecked, it can lead to anxiety, burnout, and have you desperately searching to find another way.
'“Marco is a skilled and thoughtful coach, who will guide you along whatever professional journey you are moving along. In his past life he was a photographer and a visual storyteller, and so he understands the process of creative block, imposter syndrome, and self-doubt as well as anyone could. He's also just a really nice person and a smart, funny, easy to talk to sounding board.”
Jess Crombie, Senior Consultant Communications, Stories, Ethics & Content / Trainer / Speaker / Researcher / Advisor / Trustee.
What’s even more disheartening is when you’ve made a concerted effort to change but always seem to end up where you started.
Reading self-help books, attending workshops, advice from friends and family and online videos by experts, to try and change your bad habits can momentarily improve self-worth and give you hope of finding an answer.
But the results are often fleeting at best and offer short lived motivation with no true direction forward.
They can only take you so far.
Your issues are as unique as you are, and a personalised direction is what coaching can offer, to help you achieve the clarity, purpose driven action, and fulfillment you are seeking.
“Marco’s guidance and calm approach enabled me to examine my goals and aspirations for the future in a clear, creative and methodical way. He helped me realize what was important and enabled me to challenge my resistance to making adjustments.”
Nick Cosens, Props Master Film and Television.
This is when a one to one, personalised coaching relationship can really help.
Through a creative and powerful alliance, Coaching guides you to rediscover your own innate abilities, to find the answers to the struggles you’re facing.
It is a powerful, sustainable and a transformative experience.
'“Marco has supported me through a challenging time in both my personal and professional life. His approach to coaching encourages frank, open, and honest dialogue injected with humour and humility. I thoroughly enjoy our sessions and I always come away with a positive mind-set. He has helped me hold myself accountable for my own personal growth as well as encourage me to value what I am good at and what I can achieve.”

Are you ready for change?
I’m a professioally certified co-active coach.
I have experienced exhausting self-doubt and perfectionism. Both have left me feeling powerless and trapped. Imposter syndrome tore away at my self-worth and endless procrastination prevented me from taking purposeful action.
Being coached taught me how my own fears and inner critic were holding me back from living a life that is authentic to me.
It helped me to reconnect with my creativity, resourcefulness and most importantly, my core values.
It guided me to find the answers and the solutions for the challenges and fears I faced.
The results were transformational and I’m passionate about empowering others who face similar challenges to find the insights and way forward they seek for themselves.
Coaching with me offers relief from the stranglehold of imposter syndrome and self-doubt. It reconnects you with your core values and guides you to lead your own life from a place that is authentic to you.
So, if you're feeling stuck and unmotivated… it’s time to take back control.
I can help you get back in touch with your own unique values.
By finding your purpose, the barriers holding you back will fall away and empower you to move forward with confidence .
“I have spent this past 5 years honing my craft, working predominantly in isolation. My goal is to find an agent and move my work forward but it's something that I have been procrastinating over. Am I really ready? Can I cope with the rejection? Etc etc. Working with Marco has given me the confidence to move forward. He has stopped me faffing and made me realise that I am ready to move to the next level. After our third session I'd written a proposal and sent it off to an agent. This is something that I have been wanting to do for a long time.”
