Breakthrough Stories

Working with Will is one of the best decisions I've ever made. During the last six months, I've become clearer about what I want in my life, who I really am and – most important point – which steps I can take to become this version of myself. During the coaching sessions, we develop a clear picture of what I want and the best possible ways to move forward.! It is great being understood and encouraged in what my heart beats for. Will is able to see people's potential, feel what is helpful right now and lead you there without ever having given any advice. Wow!

When I first found out about Will and his coaching business in March 2015, I was running my online shop, Happy & Glorious, whilst working a four-day week at another job. Every evening, weekend and day of annual leave were taken up with work on my business, and I was struggling to move H&G forward in the limited time that I could spend on it. I had no prior experience in business coaching and had no idea what to expect from it.

By the end of my first chat with Will, I was bursting with enthusiasm. He encouraged me to set myself a target - to be working full-time on my business within a year. Although this had previously seemed like an impossible dream, it suddenly felt within reach. Will’s belief in my business and my abilities was utterly convincing, and he helped me to untangle my brain to the extent that a clear, workable plan suddenly lay before me.

Within the next few months of coaching, I had taken on a studio and started to design my own collection of products to sell alongside the work of other British designers. A few months later, I now have my own high street shop in Cranbrook, a dream 20 years in the making!

Through regular coaching with Will, momentum has been inevitable. It is so helpful to have a third-party sounding board, to be held accountable for my progress, and to feel that someone genuinely believes in my future. His unshakeable conviction and optimism are a constant presence in my mind; whenever an opportunity presents itself there is a little voice in my head that asks me, ‘What would Will say?’

Although I still work around the clock on my business, to be able to dedicate all my time to it is wonderful. There are huge challenges ahead, but I now have tools to help me to approach them in a new way as a result of my coaching. I look forward to the next chapter of my business life, and to continuing my work with Will.

So I have come to the end of 6 months of coaching with Will. I had a huge limiting belief that I wasn't good enough. I can honestly say it's gone.

I no longer stop and doubt my abilities, now I focus on how strong I am. I'm more confident, I have this feeling in my stomach! I take chances, I take action, it's like you've taken the doubt away. Thank you so much for your time, focus and unique way of helping me through the several challenges I had in those 6 months.

When I first started working with Will, I was working a part-time job for a charity, singing for special events (weddings, birthdays, proposals etc), tutoring and in my few spare moments trying to write my own music. I was completely overwhelmed, I didn't have enough money and was constantly worried about it.

In 6 months I've gone from being in that place to where I am now, tutoring a few hours a week which is enough to live on and I have secured special event bookings for most of the year so I also have funds to invest in my career as a songwriter.

But the best thing is that I've just set myself a goal to write 50 song ideas by the end of May and I know it's achievable because I have free time every single day till then to work towards it. And that's all because of the change in my mindset which developed while working with Will and the tough decisions I made and the ambitious challenges he set me. Will helped me to understand that so much more is possible than what I previously believed.

I now have a life that is leaps closer to the one that I want. I have the time and space to be creative and take steps towards making a living as a singer-songwriter. Some days I wake up and I can't believe I'm here.

I have recently completed a 12-week coaching programme with Will. I can't thank him enough for his continuous support, encouragement, and new ideas and for pushing me out of my comfort zone. Also most importantly making me believe in myself and my dreams.

Before I started working with Will I had already made some big changes including leaving my job 8 months ago, going travelling and making the decision to pursue my passion for photography and make this into my career. However, I was struggling with what to focus on, and how to get there and had already subconsciously started making sacrifices and stopped pushing myself out of my comfort zone.

Since working with Will, I have already achieved things I didn't think were possible. Such as having two photographs featured (Telegraph & Guardian), something previously I had only dreamt of. Will believed in me and gave me the encouragement and confidence I needed to start putting myself out there. We looked at lots of ways I could make money from doing what I love and thinking outside my comfort zone. Over 12 weeks lots of areas were explored including learnt behaviours, stop factors, beliefs, dreaming big and much more. With Will's support, my dreams have started to become a reality and I am continuing to dream big.

I honestly could not recommend Will enough. I wasn't sure what to expect going into the sessions with Will, but I am so pleased I plucked up the courage to reach out to Will. If you are looking to make some changes, or have some crazy dreams that you've convinced yourself are impossible then I would 100% advise reaching out to Will and seeing where that initial conversation may take you.

I was a 20+ a day smoker, I had wanted to give up for years. I had never tried hypnosis and when introduced to what Will could offer, I quickly snapped up the chance! Will was amazing, his calming voice guided me the whole way through and I was completely relaxed. I couldn't believe the quickness of the transformation and I'm happy to say that I am now a complete non-smoker and owe this to Will, who is an amazing, complete support and a huge inspiration to me and to others... Thank you, Will.

I am so thankful that my paths crossed with Will Alyward in 2018. Through sessions with Will, I have been able to address specific areas that needed attention to move forward in a positive way in my life. Will has wisdom beyond his years and a kind heart that makes anyone feel comfortable to open up about personal concerns. Every single session I gain something invaluable, making the sessions worth every penny and more. If you are wondering if you should book with Will or not, wonder no more! Just do it and you’ll thank yourself later, I promise.
