I would recommend Don to those who truly want to appear as themselves in the world, and are ready to make profound changes. His style is gentle, and yet the impact penetrates so profoundly, you wonder how is this possible. Thanks Don, you have helped me possibly more than you even know. Nyela Reid

I had the occasion to be supported by Donovan through a non-directive and extremely supportive coaching partnership, which complemented the partnership I was in with my business Mentor. We started with a very hefty stretch of an income goal for me … and I’m in the 10% of professional coaches who already make well over $10,000/year. This goal was to be received within our coaching partnership of just 3 months, and as lofty and difficult as the goal appeared to be at times I was absolutely DELIGHTED to be in a position to announce to Donovan that with his help, especially through the visioning exercises he guided me, I received my goal! Plus! I will never know for sure, Donovan, but I feel confident in telling you that I’m not sure I would have received my goal had I not had your support. That boost of confidence in my having reached that benchmark is so powerful! My tolerations bar will never again be lower than that mark … thanks to you! - Lynne Jacob, MLJ Coaching International

Dear Don, Thank you once again for leading the inspirational workshop on career and goals today.
The students were really engaged and enthusiastic, this allowed for a more focused session. As the programme goes on in the summer months (The Challenge Network) and will resume in October, I’m certainly inviting you to participate again if your schedule allows it. ~ Roberta, Manager Time for Paddington

It has been a very enjoyable, worthwhile and fun experience. Before working with you I was feeling less confident about completing my diploma and taking forward ideas for using my coaching at work. I have gained more confidence that I will have achieved my goal of completing the diploma by June as well as coaching at work. I also had some great insights about my values. ~ Karen Conway

“Before I started with Don I was not motivated in my school work at all. With the coaching sessions I am now organised and have good ways how to face dilemmas. I made a plan for revision which helped as I had GCSE exams. I managed to pass more than 5 A-C GCSE as a result of my timetable revision. Don was great and very sociable. I would 100% recommend him to others.” - Djibril Skev

Before my coaching sessions with Don I as very unfocussed and uncommitted to myself. I found it hard to motivate myself to even decide what I wanted in my life, let alone how to go about getting it. Being coached by Don has helped me to gain some confidence in moving forward. He has helped me to sharpen my focus by homing in on specific goals and clear deadlines. This was something I really struggled to do before now.
In gaining this clarity, I feel quite strong and enthused about my life, this was not in me before.
I assumed that my coaching experience was going to be difficult and then perhaps result in nothing. Don’s coaching style made me relaxed and trusting. I have never been this challenged in my life before, it’s been the second hardest thing I have done in 43 years (giving birth to my son, the hardest), but the rewards have been great. Don helped me to see my inner blocks, to truly look at myself in a way I have never done before, though tough, this has been exactly what I needed to go forward with authenticity.
