Helping talented people build lives of meaning and purpose
ONE GREAT THING
THE CALL
One Great Thing is a coaching practice for people who feel the quiet pull of a larger, truer life. Those who sense that something vital inside them hasn’t yet been brought into the world. A work, a calling, or a way of being that feels both frightening and undeniable.
The work begins with truth. It’s grounded, personal, and real. Not self-improvement for its own sake, but a return to who you are beneath the noise and expectations.
The work is built on the premise that each of us carries at least one great thing inside us that needs to see the light of day. My role is to help you name it, shape it, and bring it into being.
We focus on one thing at a time, the most meaningful thing - To bring it into existence, you often need to change almost everything: your systems, habits, beliefs, and sometimes even your surroundings.
The transformation comes not from chasing more, but from devoting yourself fully to what matters most. When you do, what’s left is a life aligned with your deepest truth.
It's not therapy. It’s a structured, courageous partnership for people ready to step into what’s next with honesty, clarity, and heart.
The Offering
$15,000 annual retainer (billed quarterly)
A year-long partnership built for depth, focus, and lasting transformation.
This work is both intimate and strategic, designed for people who want their outer life to reflect their inner truth. Every engagement is unique, tailored to your nature, strengths, and vulnerabilities.
The Method
The One Great Thing method is a simple backbone, a framework that provides direction and accountability, but the path itself is bespoke, responsive, and built around you.
1 Unearth
We begin with your full story: what’s working, what’s not, and what’s quietly calling for attention.
Through deep conversation, we gather everything and strip away the noise until what truly matters comes into view.
The thing that feels both frightening and true, that’s where we start.
2 Pressure Test
We give your “one thing” structure and test it against reality. What will it demand of your time, reputation, money, and spirit?
What must you let go of for it to live?
3 Design the Path
We build the rhythm, structure, and support systems that turn your vision into movement. Creative disciplines, financial scaffolding, accountability, new partnerships.
4 Build the Core
Transformation brings resistance - it always brings resistance. Here we strengthen your ability to stay centred through uncertainty, using fear as a doorway to discovery and change. This is often where I am of greatest use to you.
5 Walk It Together
We walk until the work can walk on its own.
This kind of success isn’t about speed or scale, it’s about alignment. A life that feels whole, congruent, alive, and deeply authentic.
Whats Included
Annual Deep Dive: A full-day, in-person deep dive anywhere in Australia (global at additional cost). Here we build the foundations for the year ahead.
Ongoing Momentum: Regular 60–90 minute sessions focused on truth, strategy, and sustained growth.
Direct Access: You can reach out between sessions for spot fires, difficult decisions, or creative breakthroughs. I keep boundaries around my time with my family but I work with a small handful of people each year so I can do this properly for you.
Wins + Challenge: Simple back and forth check-ins to track progress and obstacles, keeping the work grounded and real.
Annual Reflection + Reset: Each year, we review what’s shifted, what’s now true, and what comes next.
Who I Work With
I work with brave, talented, and imperfect people who feel something deeper calling inside them.
Entrepreneurs, artists, executives and founders, they all share a quiet hunger for alignment, authenticity and a life beyond the confines of the one they are currently living.
Many have lived through difficult experiences that have shaped both their drive and their sensitivity. Some identify as neurodivergent. Some are simply tired of pretending.
I’ve spent six years working with people like this, gifted but human, and I offer discounts for those living with substantial neurodiversity.
While I bring lived experience, deep understanding and a psychology degree, I am not a therapist nor should I be a replacement for one. My role is to help you translate your nature into movement, to turn intensity into purpose and potential into impact.
About Me
I’ve lived a complex, rich, beautiful life, full of extremes, mistakes, and hard-earned clarity. I’ve built and led organisations across the globe, built partnerships with some of the worlds most profitable companies, worked alongside some of the most marginalised but culturally rich people, and helped move millions toward protecting life on this planet.
As a former CEO, I worked closely with some of the worlds wealthiest families. What I learned is simple but profound: beyond a certain level of freedom, the most valuable currency is purpose and meaning.
My professional life is now devoted to directing and shaping capital to serve life and helping others to align their inner world with their outer work.
My Philosophy
Service to something greater than yourself
Truth before comfort
Wealth as freedom, connection, and purpose
Fear as a doorway to transformation
This is the same work I ask of myself
An Invitation
A handful of clients. Deep work. Real change.
