I help busy professionals, leaders and Not-For-Profit executives find their bravery and inner strength back so they can live the life they have always wanted and achieve the impact they want to make.
Are you the best version of yourself?
Do you get out of life what you envisaged?
Do you create the impact you want to make as a leader?
Do you want to invest in your own development as a leader?
During my coaching program you will find out how you can live your life to the fullest and have better relationships with the important people in your life by learning how to communicate effectively with them.

If you want to live a happy and fulfilled life, you need to follow your own path with courage and empathy
Hello, I’m Peter.
Are you questioning why you are stuck or what your goals or purpose are in your personal life or in your work life?
Together we can explore the specific question that you need to get answered and step by step I’ll help you to get to your end goal.
In our first session we will explore what your specific question you need to answer to reach your goals.
After that we will put a plan together to achieve your goal(s).
I would love to take the journey with you on your path. No matter what direction it goes. Along the way I will challenge you where it’s necessary to keep you on your own path and not someone else’s path. I’ll also give you some insight in how you think and act and what effect that has on your relationships with other people.
In coaching we can work on one particular issue that you want to change and we can also work on putting real transformation in motion. This is totally up to you.
The premise of personal coaching is that you as the client are naturally creative, resourceful and complete – fully capable of finding your own answers to all the challenges that life can bring. But sometimes there are blockages. Advice and instructions often don’t provide the lasting solutions that you’re looking for. A personal coach help you with this, by listening and asking specific questions, so that you can take control of your life again.
When you are looking for a coach one of the most important things is that you have a connection with the coach as you probably will be sharing things that you haven’t shared with a lot of people, if at all. So the first step would be to schedule a free exploration session where we can get to know each other and discuss what you would like to focus on.
How do I know if coaching is something for me?

If your answer to one of these questions is Yes, let's have a chat and explore where this might be coming from and map out a strategy to overcome it.
At our initial coaching session we talked about what was important to me in my business and personally and where was I struggling currently.
I was struggling on the personal side which was being driven by my business activity.
Being a small business owner, I have struggled to let go and find the personal space that I need to relax and spend more time with my young children.
Pete was able to bring out of me what was important to me, what my issues were and agree on an action plan to address these issues.
I understand that the actions are mine to deliver on and am working towards delivering on the actions that are important to me.
Pete is a good listener which is a good quality in a coach but also knows when to given me some direction so that I can focus on my objectives and deliver on my actions.

How can we work together?
Depending of what you want to achieve there are three options to work with me.
One-on-one Consulting
You have a particular challenge or goal that you want to address.
If applicable we may use one of the assessment tools to go deeper into thinking preferences, ways of being and personality traits and preferences. This might provide you with some insights that have been blindspots for you or they can confirm patterns that you are already aware of.
During the coaching session I will act as a critical friend, encouraging you every step of the way. I will challenge you to push yourself and stretch your comfort zone as that’s how we grow and develop.
Personal Leadership Group Program
During this program will work alongside peers in a group setting and on top of that you will get 1:1 coaching. The program will focus on three main areas and you will work on:
1. Who you are and what you want out of life
2. How you interact with those around you
3. How you can achieve your goals
Online training Program
The online training will give you access to recorded training sessions that are part of the Personal Leadership Program.
This will include the 3 pillars of the program:
1. Wake Up (to your potential)
2. Level up (elevate your potential)
3. Show up (sustainable change)
Praise and Testimonials
Peter is very pleasant to work with. He brings structure to the conversation, gives plenty of room to let me talk and knows when he needs to ask questions that bring you to the core of your challenge.
I reckon any leader or business owner could gain some benefits from coaching with Sisu coaching.
Jimmy - Founder VegMeUp
Peter has helped me break through my unconscious habits and gain more clarity on my personal development journey. He is patient, listened, genuine, helpful and has been challenging my thinking in helping me break through when there's an opportunity. He gave me space, listened and provide guidance when needed. Thank you Peter for being ther for me!
Jasmine Lim - Coach/Change Manager
I had hit a bit of a ceiling in my career development and was trying to re-ignite my intrinsic motivation and re-focus my priorities.
I experienced the sessions as calm, structured and professional. They provided a space where I could reflect on some of the issues, barriers and challenges I was facing. By bringing a structured conversational style to it, with Peter’s help I was able to disentangle these issues and address them step by step, thereby regaining a sense of control and personal power over the situation.
I highly recommend Peter’s coaching to anyone who is considering their current or future career and business direction, or their life purpose more broadly. The coaching is very valuable in helping to develop both a clear vision and a practical strategy for realising this vision. Peter also helped me with being accountable for my actions towards the goals I set.
