COLIN'S STORY

I was born in Canada and raised between the Gulf Islands of British Columbia and the Swiss Alps in Switzerland. I have lived and worked (fallen and gotten back up again) globally, from Bora Bora and Beverly Hills to Montenegro & Serbia, London, Tuscany, the Indian Ocean, Thailand and everywhere in between.

The first part of my career was in Swiss banking. I did it for 10 years; co-founding an investment firm, until I broke in 2001 after having ticked all the boxes of "success": MBA in Finance and Marketing, marriage, entrepreneurship. Christmas in St. Moritz and Easter in St. Tropez kind of stuff. You get the picture. In 2001 I gave everything I owned away (Buddha style) and moved back to Vancouver to start fresh. Literally, I began to redesign everything from scratch.

I have spend the last 20 years in international sales & marketing, branding and communications. I have really seen it all, from flying in private jets, sailing on super yachts, and mingling with industry titans; meeting Hillary Clinton and Elton John and hanging out in George Clooney's villa on Lake Como when it was owned by the Heinz family. On the flip side of all the shiny stuff, I have also suffered the hardships of divorce and personal bankruptcy, depression and crippling anxiety.

My whole adult life I have said "yes" to opportunities without knowing what was coming next or what the consequences might be. Now I am writing Fear Less: Crossing the Bridge from Fear to Bliss, 8 steps to fearless living bringing this tapestry of life experiences to serve others.

Thanks to this vast collage of experiences, I have become an expert in helping people fearlessly pivot and make meaningful shifts in their lives when they find themselves stuck or at a daunting intersection professionally or personally.

After spending the last twelve years living and working in Europe, now I reside in the peaceful seaside town of Mahone Bay in Nova Scotia, Atlantic Canada connected to nature where I can best serve my high-performing clients.
