Point B on Substack

I am building my coaching practice in public and writing about it here. These posts cover recent learnings and reflections, frameworks and models, as well as my view of life and how one changes their life.

Recent themes: you can have the life of your dreams and the price may be your old life. Help can make all the difference. The value of seeing others and reflecting it back to them. Oh and the Creme Brûlée Challenge!
