00:00:04.420 --> 00:00:06.341 align:center
Hi, my name's Paul Baxendale.

00:00:07.141 --> 00:00:08.401 align:center
Now, whether you've come here through

00:00:08.561 --> 00:00:10.182 align:center
one of my social media accounts,

00:00:11.002 --> 00:00:12.882 align:center
through a Google search, or just

00:00:12.902 --> 00:00:15.283 align:center
through word of mouth, welcome to

00:00:15.303 --> 00:00:17.143 align:center
my revised website.

00:00:18.124 --> 00:00:20.124 align:center
Now, my website has had a

00:00:20.164 --> 00:00:23.365 align:center
number of changes recently, basically just

00:00:23.385 --> 00:00:25.826 align:center
through the changing nature of life

00:00:25.886 --> 00:00:26.326 align:center
itself.

00:00:27.166 --> 00:00:28.487 align:center
And you'll now notice that there

00:00:28.527 --> 00:00:30.607 align:center
are two new pages to the

00:00:30.627 --> 00:00:31.127 align:center
website.

00:00:31.607 --> 00:00:33.848 align:center
Firstly, there is Life Coaching,

00:00:34.392 --> 00:00:36.594 align:center
available and that there is also

00:00:37.275 --> 00:00:41.078 align:center
physique coaching available or online personal

00:00:41.118 --> 00:00:41.478 align:center
training.

00:00:42.459 --> 00:00:43.500 align:center
Now obviously the first one of

00:00:43.560 --> 00:00:46.843 align:center
those life coaching or personal development

00:00:47.263 --> 00:00:50.446 align:center
coach whichever term you prefer also

00:00:50.506 --> 00:00:52.948 align:center
includes an element of physique coaching

00:00:53.028 --> 00:00:55.210 align:center
anyway as I am there to

00:00:55.891 --> 00:00:58.273 align:center
help and support you in aiming

00:00:58.653 --> 00:01:00.535 align:center
towards all of your goals in

00:01:00.595 --> 00:01:00.815 align:center
life.

00:01:01.772 --> 00:01:03.813 align:center
The complete vision of your life,

00:01:03.853 --> 00:01:04.453 align:center
so to speak.

00:01:05.794 --> 00:01:07.555 align:center
The second new page is for

00:01:07.595 --> 00:01:09.716 align:center
those who solely want my help

00:01:09.776 --> 00:01:11.217 align:center
and support through their physique

00:01:11.657 --> 00:01:12.478 align:center
transformation,

00:01:13.078 --> 00:01:15.359 align:center
and will probably, but not totally,

00:01:15.419 --> 00:01:17.860 align:center
I'm hoping, lend itself to those

00:01:18.321 --> 00:01:20.402 align:center
who know me from my bodybuilding

00:01:20.462 --> 00:01:20.782 align:center
career.

00:01:22.884 --> 00:01:24.825 align:center
Now, those who know me will

00:01:24.865 --> 00:01:26.985 align:center
know some of my story.

00:01:27.686 --> 00:01:29.646 align:center
But if you don't, well, my

00:01:29.706 --> 00:01:31.147 align:center
story is no more important than

00:01:31.207 --> 00:01:32.087 align:center
anybody else's.

00:01:32.627 --> 00:01:36.329 align:center
But it has blessed me with

00:01:36.389 --> 00:01:39.650 align:center
a multitude of experiences that has

00:01:39.710 --> 00:01:42.231 align:center
shaped me to the person that

00:01:42.311 --> 00:01:43.031 align:center
I am today.

00:01:45.012 --> 00:01:46.312 align:center
Now, for those of you who

00:01:46.352 --> 00:01:47.352 align:center
don't want to read through the

00:01:47.412 --> 00:01:48.833 align:center
entire About Me section,

00:01:50.186 --> 00:01:51.207 align:center
going to give you a brief

00:01:51.667 --> 00:01:54.109 align:center
run through now of my career

00:01:54.489 --> 00:01:55.710 align:center
and bring you right up to

00:01:55.750 --> 00:01:58.591 align:center
date with what my purpose is

00:01:59.932 --> 00:02:03.375 align:center
and how I became fully aware

00:02:03.915 --> 00:02:05.676 align:center
of the role that I was

00:02:05.916 --> 00:02:08.158 align:center
always meant to play in life.

00:02:09.799 --> 00:02:11.700 align:center
Born into a family of teachers

00:02:13.325 --> 00:02:15.266 align:center
I was drawn to reading and

00:02:15.346 --> 00:02:17.406 align:center
to sport from a very early

00:02:17.566 --> 00:02:17.786 align:center
age.

00:02:18.827 --> 00:02:21.127 align:center
Whilst I had friends growing up,

00:02:21.608 --> 00:02:24.629 align:center
I also sensed a difference between

00:02:24.849 --> 00:02:26.949 align:center
me and most others of my

00:02:27.089 --> 00:02:29.410 align:center
age, and those I did bond

00:02:29.470 --> 00:02:31.871 align:center
with generally tended to be older

00:02:31.911 --> 00:02:32.431 align:center
than I was.

00:02:34.477 --> 00:02:37.279 align:center
Now, this became most apparent when

00:02:37.339 --> 00:02:43.203 align:center
I was probably about or when most of my friends

00:02:43.443 --> 00:02:45.445 align:center
were not those from school, but

00:02:45.525 --> 00:02:48.026 align:center
from my martial arts club, who

00:02:48.106 --> 00:02:50.808 align:center
generally tended to be between the

00:02:50.868 --> 00:02:52.209 align:center
ages of or

00:02:53.930 --> 00:02:55.852 align:center
And I guess although I was

00:02:55.932 --> 00:02:58.714 align:center
mature for my age, I never

00:02:58.794 --> 00:03:01.015 align:center
felt any of those relationships were

00:03:01.215 --> 00:03:01.395 align:center
forced

00:03:02.981 --> 00:03:04.762 align:center
they felt perfectly natural and they

00:03:04.942 --> 00:03:06.842 align:center
also felt very positive.

00:03:07.922 --> 00:03:09.643 align:center
Not only was I learning more

00:03:09.683 --> 00:03:11.644 align:center
about my martial arts, but I

00:03:11.684 --> 00:03:14.324 align:center
was also learning more about life

00:03:14.684 --> 00:03:15.145 align:center
itself.

00:03:16.805 --> 00:03:19.026 align:center
At age I 14, began going

00:03:19.086 --> 00:03:19.626 align:center
to the gym.

00:03:20.543 --> 00:03:22.584 align:center
to get stronger and to try

00:03:22.644 --> 00:03:24.786 align:center
and develop my physique to one

00:03:24.846 --> 00:03:26.787 align:center
resembling that of Bruce Lee.

00:03:28.028 --> 00:03:30.329 align:center
A goal not uncommon in bodybuilders.

00:03:31.410 --> 00:03:33.211 align:center
Now with time I found that

00:03:33.271 --> 00:03:35.973 align:center
I enjoyed weight training more than

00:03:36.013 --> 00:03:37.934 align:center
I did the martial arts and

00:03:37.975 --> 00:03:39.235 align:center
I also found that I was

00:03:39.275 --> 00:03:41.697 align:center
spending more time in the gym

00:03:41.737 --> 00:03:43.078 align:center
than I was the dojo.

00:03:45.700 --> 00:03:47.281 align:center
Now it was at my first

00:03:47.361 --> 00:03:47.561 align:center
gym

00:03:48.968 --> 00:03:50.829 align:center
that I had the first opportunity

00:03:51.049 --> 00:03:55.292 align:center
to see professional American bodybuilders.

00:03:56.633 --> 00:03:57.894 align:center
As the owner of the gym

00:03:57.934 --> 00:04:00.855 align:center
was also a promoter who brought

00:04:01.116 --> 00:04:03.457 align:center
the bodybuilders over to the UK

00:04:03.997 --> 00:04:05.238 align:center
for seminar tours.

00:04:06.299 --> 00:04:07.479 align:center
And it was when I first

00:04:07.600 --> 00:04:11.722 align:center
witnessed what I call proper training.

00:04:12.923 --> 00:04:16.145 align:center
Guys like Jeff King, Mike Quinn,

00:04:17.225 --> 00:04:17.886 align:center
Tom Platz,

00:04:18.567 --> 00:04:20.450 align:center
and Lee Haney just to name

00:04:20.510 --> 00:04:20.830 align:center
a few.

00:04:21.772 --> 00:04:23.955 align:center
Now as a young man watching

00:04:24.455 --> 00:04:27.139 align:center
these monsters tearing up the gym

00:04:28.101 --> 00:04:32.227 align:center
with superhuman ways and an animal

00:04:32.387 --> 00:04:33.028 align:center
savagery

00:04:33.780 --> 00:04:36.622 align:center
it resonated with me and something

00:04:36.722 --> 00:04:41.445 align:center
deep inside I recognized too that

00:04:41.785 --> 00:04:43.447 align:center
it was within me as well.

00:04:44.387 --> 00:04:46.048 align:center
Now as I got bigger I

00:04:46.088 --> 00:04:48.390 align:center
began working on the doors and

00:04:48.410 --> 00:04:50.231 align:center
it was there that I befriended

00:04:50.891 --> 00:04:54.674 align:center
and met my first bodybuilding mentor

00:04:55.254 --> 00:04:57.836 align:center
Johnny Fuller the ex-Olympian.

00:04:58.637 --> 00:05:00.078 align:center
Now Johnny became a very good

00:05:00.118 --> 00:05:02.739 align:center
friend of mine again despite the

00:05:02.799 --> 00:05:03.460 align:center
age difference.

00:05:04.403 --> 00:05:06.304 align:center
And I learned a lot from

00:05:06.364 --> 00:05:06.744 align:center
Johnny.

00:05:07.444 --> 00:05:09.045 align:center
And as I began to go

00:05:09.085 --> 00:05:12.366 align:center
into competitive bodybuilding, he guided me

00:05:12.446 --> 00:05:15.367 align:center
through my first few shows right

00:05:15.447 --> 00:05:16.647 align:center
up to national level.

00:05:17.928 --> 00:05:20.088 align:center
And it was after one such

00:05:20.148 --> 00:05:23.910 align:center
British finals that my life took

00:05:23.970 --> 00:05:26.131 align:center
its biggest turn up to that

00:05:26.251 --> 00:05:27.091 align:center
point in time.

00:05:27.991 --> 00:05:31.292 align:center
The year was and 1992, Doreen

00:05:31.332 --> 00:05:32.793 align:center
Yates had just won the Mr.

00:05:32.833 --> 00:05:33.273 align:center
Olympia.

00:05:34.195 --> 00:05:36.956 align:center
Now Dorian was English and he

00:05:37.016 --> 00:05:39.056 align:center
trained in Birmingham at his own

00:05:39.116 --> 00:05:41.957 align:center
gym, Temple Gym, which was only

00:05:42.317 --> 00:05:44.497 align:center
half an hour from my then

00:05:44.557 --> 00:05:46.458 align:center
girlfriend's mother's home.

00:05:47.638 --> 00:05:50.098 align:center
I made the decision that I

00:05:50.258 --> 00:05:52.559 align:center
must meet this man and if

00:05:52.579 --> 00:05:54.899 align:center
at all possible, to watch him

00:05:55.019 --> 00:05:55.360 align:center
train.

00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:58.260 align:center
As it turned out, this would

00:05:58.300 --> 00:06:00.721 align:center
be the beginning of me eventually

00:06:00.841 --> 00:06:02.021 align:center
training with Dorian.

00:06:02.717 --> 00:06:04.738 align:center
for two years in the early

00:06:04.818 --> 00:06:08.040 align:center
to mid-1990s, as he became my

00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:11.162 align:center
second and most influential bodybuilding

00:06:11.222 --> 00:06:11.702 align:center
mentor,

00:06:12.062 --> 00:06:14.764 align:center
but more importantly, my best friend.

00:06:16.445 --> 00:06:19.006 align:center
Another gentleman who also became a

00:06:19.126 --> 00:06:22.148 align:center
very close friend, I met around

00:06:22.188 --> 00:06:25.370 align:center
that time too, when I

00:06:25.490 --> 00:06:28.352 align:center
first opened my first gym, Mr.

00:06:28.392 --> 00:06:29.012 align:center
B's Gym.

00:06:29.672 --> 00:06:31.133 align:center
Again, an incredibly

00:06:33.973 --> 00:06:37.174 align:center
talented individual, immense genius and

00:06:37.254 --> 00:06:38.155 align:center
creativity,

00:06:38.875 --> 00:06:41.056 align:center
the artist Simon Beardsley.

00:06:41.716 --> 00:06:44.697 align:center
Now over years 30 later, Dorian

00:06:44.797 --> 00:06:48.218 align:center
and Simon still remain my best

00:06:48.298 --> 00:06:51.339 align:center
friends, perhaps even my only two

00:06:51.539 --> 00:06:54.160 align:center
true friends, and it was with

00:06:54.220 --> 00:06:57.101 align:center
them and through them and for

00:06:57.161 --> 00:06:58.802 align:center
them that I grew

00:06:59.366 --> 00:07:01.608 align:center
and that I learned and pushed

00:07:01.708 --> 00:07:03.790 align:center
myself to do all the things

00:07:03.830 --> 00:07:05.771 align:center
that I've done in life up

00:07:05.811 --> 00:07:06.192 align:center
to now.

00:07:07.413 --> 00:07:10.055 align:center
From owning gyms, to health clubs,

00:07:10.615 --> 00:07:14.038 align:center
to emigrating to Australia, to working

00:07:14.098 --> 00:07:16.740 align:center
with the young and the homeless

00:07:16.880 --> 00:07:20.043 align:center
and the addicted on Sydney's streets,

00:07:20.744 --> 00:07:22.105 align:center
to where I started my own

00:07:22.185 --> 00:07:26.428 align:center
charity, the Rainmaker Foundation, where I

00:07:26.528 --> 00:07:27.970 align:center
organized charity days

00:07:28.649 --> 00:07:31.191 align:center
where businesses would give their employees

00:07:31.411 --> 00:07:32.091 align:center
a day off

00:07:35.754 --> 00:07:36.354 align:center
to help me

00:07:36.754 --> 00:07:38.576 align:center
in whatever project I had lined

00:07:38.636 --> 00:07:39.276 align:center
up for them.

00:07:39.977 --> 00:07:41.498 align:center
Now this could be anything from

00:07:41.998 --> 00:07:46.481 align:center
doing up houses, to gardening for

00:07:46.561 --> 00:07:48.943 align:center
hostels, to setting up a fun

00:07:48.963 --> 00:07:51.284 align:center
day at a children's home, even

00:07:51.384 --> 00:07:54.606 align:center
to arranging for Christmas presents to

00:07:54.646 --> 00:07:56.988 align:center
be delivered from an unknown supporter.

00:07:57.506 --> 00:08:00.187 align:center
to families in great need over

00:08:00.227 --> 00:08:02.548 align:center
the holiday period, which would include

00:08:02.628 --> 00:08:04.849 align:center
gifts for the children and food

00:08:04.909 --> 00:08:06.450 align:center
for a decent Christmas dinner.

00:08:08.211 --> 00:08:09.751 align:center
I was running my own business.

00:08:10.191 --> 00:08:11.952 align:center
I was personal training a couple

00:08:11.972 --> 00:08:13.393 align:center
of international rugby players.

00:08:14.353 --> 00:08:16.034 align:center
I was running my own charity.

00:08:16.854 --> 00:08:19.716 align:center
And I was also swimming in

00:08:19.756 --> 00:08:21.796 align:center
the ocean every morning and getting

00:08:21.856 --> 00:08:23.137 align:center
in my daily workout.

00:08:23.863 --> 00:08:25.785 align:center
And I'm exhausted just thinking about

00:08:25.905 --> 00:08:26.686 align:center
all of that.

00:08:28.347 --> 00:08:30.249 align:center
Now, after that, I returned to

00:08:30.269 --> 00:08:32.972 align:center
the UK to open another gym.

00:08:34.073 --> 00:08:35.755 align:center
And then later, I became a

00:08:35.875 --> 00:08:37.837 align:center
full-time personal trainer.

00:08:39.016 --> 00:08:41.838 align:center
Until one fateful day in

00:08:42.278 --> 00:08:43.319 align:center
when I was walking up a

00:08:43.379 --> 00:08:45.901 align:center
set of stairs which collapsed underneath

00:08:46.001 --> 00:08:49.804 align:center
me, breaking my spine, my pelvis,

00:08:50.644 --> 00:08:54.407 align:center
internal damage, rupturing both quadriceps off

00:08:54.427 --> 00:08:57.989 align:center
of my knee, basically leaving me

00:08:58.049 --> 00:08:58.950 align:center
disabled for life.

00:09:00.191 --> 00:09:02.033 align:center
Now, life had never been particularly

00:09:02.213 --> 00:09:03.734 align:center
easy for me up to that

00:09:03.774 --> 00:09:05.236 align:center
point in time, as I had

00:09:05.296 --> 00:09:06.797 align:center
always followed my heart and my

00:09:06.857 --> 00:09:07.678 align:center
passion anyway.

00:09:08.258 --> 00:09:09.820 align:center
But I now face something that

00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:11.161 align:center
I'd never faced before.

00:09:12.062 --> 00:09:14.984 align:center
The disintegration of my identity.

00:09:16.105 --> 00:09:18.047 align:center
An ego death, you might call

00:09:18.087 --> 00:09:18.167 align:center
it.

00:09:19.648 --> 00:09:21.170 align:center
So for over years, 40 I'd

00:09:21.190 --> 00:09:22.471 align:center
been known as an athlete and

00:09:22.511 --> 00:09:23.291 align:center
a bodybuilder.

00:09:23.612 --> 00:09:25.593 align:center
And even after retiring from bodybuilding,

00:09:26.074 --> 00:09:32.330 align:center
I still maintained pounds 280 on my frame and

00:09:32.350 --> 00:09:34.372 align:center
so on that fateful morning all

00:09:34.572 --> 00:09:36.113 align:center
of that changed completely.

00:09:37.235 --> 00:09:39.177 align:center
There then came a very dark

00:09:39.257 --> 00:09:41.138 align:center
period in my life where I

00:09:41.199 --> 00:09:43.841 align:center
had to search within very deeply

00:09:43.921 --> 00:09:46.344 align:center
and very hard to question who

00:09:46.424 --> 00:09:48.746 align:center
it was I really am and

00:09:48.806 --> 00:09:49.447 align:center
what role

00:09:50.208 --> 00:09:52.490 align:center
I wanted to or even could

00:09:53.051 --> 00:09:54.893 align:center
play in life from then on.

00:09:55.793 --> 00:09:56.614 align:center
Now I'd love to be able

00:09:56.634 --> 00:09:57.875 align:center
to tell you that the answer

00:09:57.916 --> 00:09:59.497 align:center
came to me straight away and

00:09:59.517 --> 00:10:02.500 align:center
it was quick and easy, but

00:10:02.640 --> 00:10:04.742 align:center
seeking life's purpose is never a

00:10:04.802 --> 00:10:05.743 align:center
simple task.

00:10:08.025 --> 00:10:09.687 align:center
But from the darkest of nights,

00:10:10.868 --> 00:10:12.950 align:center
the dawn always appears that much

00:10:13.030 --> 00:10:13.751 align:center
more beautiful.

00:10:14.830 --> 00:10:17.211 align:center
And although I didn't fully realize

00:10:17.251 --> 00:10:19.072 align:center
it at the time, I was

00:10:19.152 --> 00:10:20.652 align:center
aware that if I can no

00:10:20.732 --> 00:10:23.213 align:center
longer use my body, I still

00:10:23.293 --> 00:10:24.474 align:center
can use my mind.

00:10:25.194 --> 00:10:26.594 align:center
And that led me into

00:10:27.014 --> 00:10:30.696 align:center
years of academia, where I did

00:10:30.756 --> 00:10:32.416 align:center
a degree in history, I studied

00:10:32.476 --> 00:10:35.638 align:center
psychology, an honors degree in literature.

00:10:37.098 --> 00:10:39.399 align:center
Now, literature opened my world

00:10:40.017 --> 00:10:42.678 align:center
to the greatest writers ever and

00:10:42.778 --> 00:10:45.578 align:center
with it the greatest wisdom ever

00:10:45.638 --> 00:10:48.519 align:center
written down and passed on through

00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:49.399 align:center
the written word.

00:10:50.519 --> 00:10:52.160 align:center
My love of books and of

00:10:52.220 --> 00:10:54.960 align:center
philosophy had always been there within

00:10:55.020 --> 00:10:56.721 align:center
me but now I had the

00:10:56.781 --> 00:11:00.422 align:center
chance to immerse myself totally into

00:11:00.462 --> 00:11:02.302 align:center
the world of the greatest minds

00:11:02.882 --> 00:11:05.023 align:center
of all time and to learn

00:11:05.103 --> 00:11:05.523 align:center
from them.

00:11:06.835 --> 00:11:08.736 align:center
After my Master's, I'm now in

00:11:08.776 --> 00:11:11.216 align:center
the position of having a PhD

00:11:11.356 --> 00:11:14.037 align:center
thesis, having been accepted by two

00:11:14.097 --> 00:11:15.538 align:center
major universities.

00:11:16.958 --> 00:11:18.839 align:center
But after a life-changing day in

00:11:18.919 --> 00:11:20.919 align:center
December

00:11:23.060 --> 00:11:23.860 align:center
I was shown that

00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:25.861 align:center
if I had the courage to,

00:11:26.661 --> 00:11:28.882 align:center
my true purpose was open up

00:11:28.942 --> 00:11:30.282 align:center
to me right now.

00:11:31.183 --> 00:11:32.763 align:center
All I had to do was

00:11:32.803 --> 00:11:35.024 align:center
have the courage to accept the

00:11:35.084 --> 00:11:35.724 align:center
invitation.

00:11:37.614 --> 00:11:39.735 align:center
And here you find me with

00:11:39.875 --> 00:11:42.637 align:center
offers to either assist you in

00:11:42.697 --> 00:11:44.818 align:center
helping you making the best choices

00:11:44.898 --> 00:11:47.200 align:center
for your life or for your

00:11:47.240 --> 00:11:48.780 align:center
physique or both.

00:11:49.881 --> 00:11:52.102 align:center
Now life coaching has never been

00:11:52.142 --> 00:11:53.383 align:center
a word that I've been particularly

00:11:53.443 --> 00:11:55.064 align:center
comfortable with and I wouldn't be

00:11:55.104 --> 00:11:57.145 align:center
surprised if when you first heard

00:11:57.225 --> 00:11:58.846 align:center
it that you had a reaction

00:11:59.226 --> 00:12:00.127 align:center
in this video.

00:12:00.827 --> 00:12:01.868 align:center
But all my life

00:12:03.442 --> 00:12:04.843 align:center
I've had a sense and an

00:12:04.943 --> 00:12:07.284 align:center
ability where people have come to

00:12:07.324 --> 00:12:09.285 align:center
me with their problems and with

00:12:09.325 --> 00:12:10.445 align:center
a sense that they know they

00:12:10.485 --> 00:12:12.126 align:center
can trust me implicitly.

00:12:13.307 --> 00:12:15.287 align:center
Now, obviously, this is mainly being

00:12:15.628 --> 00:12:16.928 align:center
friends and acquaintances.

00:12:17.769 --> 00:12:20.250 align:center
And one recently who came to

00:12:20.290 --> 00:12:22.371 align:center
me and I worked with and

00:12:22.451 --> 00:12:27.393 align:center
guided him through two years where

00:12:27.433 --> 00:12:29.334 align:center
he'd come from severe drug addiction.

00:12:30.031 --> 00:12:31.392 align:center
to where he is now clean

00:12:31.532 --> 00:12:32.272 align:center
and sober.

00:12:32.793 --> 00:12:35.374 align:center
He's engaged to be married and

00:12:35.834 --> 00:12:37.355 align:center
about to embark on a brand

00:12:37.415 --> 00:12:38.096 align:center
new career.

00:12:39.537 --> 00:12:41.318 align:center
Now, I also worked for the

00:12:41.358 --> 00:12:44.239 align:center
life coach Anthony Robbins, the American

00:12:44.279 --> 00:12:46.141 align:center
gentleman who has changed so many

00:12:46.201 --> 00:12:48.022 align:center
lives through his books and his

00:12:48.102 --> 00:12:49.022 align:center
live seminars.

00:12:49.963 --> 00:12:51.484 align:center
I had the pleasure of going

00:12:51.504 --> 00:12:55.246 align:center
to Singapore, Australia and Hawaii with

00:12:55.286 --> 00:12:57.267 align:center
him, as well as working in

00:12:57.307 --> 00:12:58.768 align:center
his offices in Sydney.

00:13:00.424 --> 00:13:03.285 align:center
Contribution and contributing to others has

00:13:03.465 --> 00:13:06.807 align:center
obviously been a major important value

00:13:06.867 --> 00:13:09.428 align:center
of mine, but often to my

00:13:09.508 --> 00:13:10.289 align:center
own detriment.

00:13:11.109 --> 00:13:12.430 align:center
But with the help of one

00:13:12.470 --> 00:13:14.611 align:center
of my close friends this year,

00:13:15.511 --> 00:13:17.492 align:center
I've now decided and found a

00:13:17.532 --> 00:13:19.633 align:center
way where I can put my

00:13:19.873 --> 00:13:22.455 align:center
gift to use where everybody wins.

00:13:23.875 --> 00:13:26.056 align:center
So together with my YouTube channel,

00:13:26.136 --> 00:13:28.618 align:center
my social media presence, and my

00:13:28.678 --> 00:13:29.178 align:center
website,

00:13:30.083 --> 00:13:31.685 align:center
was encouraged to do what I

00:13:31.765 --> 00:13:33.807 align:center
knew I was always meant to

00:13:33.847 --> 00:13:36.809 align:center
do, to connect with people at

00:13:36.849 --> 00:13:38.971 align:center
a very deep level and help

00:13:39.112 --> 00:13:41.494 align:center
guide them and support them towards

00:13:41.654 --> 00:13:42.915 align:center
their best lives.

00:13:44.497 --> 00:13:46.018 align:center
So whatever you want to call

00:13:46.098 --> 00:13:48.260 align:center
it, having me as your life

00:13:48.600 --> 00:13:51.223 align:center
friend, mentor, guide,

00:13:51.883 --> 00:13:54.445 align:center
or simply Life Coach, it's available.

00:13:55.206 --> 00:13:57.788 align:center
Just click on the relevant tab

00:13:57.848 --> 00:14:00.450 align:center
above to find out more information.

00:14:01.951 --> 00:14:04.553 align:center
And bodybuilding coaching is also something

00:14:04.573 --> 00:14:07.236 align:center
that I've done for decades, officially

00:14:07.436 --> 00:14:08.357 align:center
and unofficially.

00:14:09.097 --> 00:14:10.558 align:center
And as much as I prefer

00:14:10.979 --> 00:14:12.280 align:center
in-person coaching,

00:14:13.160 --> 00:14:15.822 align:center
I realized that this isn't possible,

00:14:16.343 --> 00:14:18.284 align:center
partly because of my physical situation

00:14:18.344 --> 00:14:20.806 align:center
anymore, but partly because there are

00:14:20.846 --> 00:14:22.207 align:center
so many people around the world

00:14:23.208 --> 00:14:24.669 align:center
who might want my help and

00:14:24.689 --> 00:14:25.169 align:center
support.

00:14:26.050 --> 00:14:29.693 align:center
So to find out about how

00:14:29.753 --> 00:14:31.174 align:center
that program can help for you

00:14:31.234 --> 00:14:32.896 align:center
wherever you are in the world,

00:14:33.336 --> 00:14:36.498 align:center
just click the relevant tab above

00:14:36.819 --> 00:14:38.240 align:center
to find out all the programs

00:14:38.280 --> 00:14:39.221 align:center
that are available.

00:14:40.401 --> 00:14:42.183 align:center
Now, I can guarantee you

00:14:42.915 --> 00:14:44.856 align:center
that whatever coaching you get from

00:14:44.896 --> 00:14:49.638 align:center
me will be nearly different

00:14:49.678 --> 00:14:52.539 align:center
from any coaching available on the

00:14:52.619 --> 00:14:53.099 align:center
internet.

00:14:54.360 --> 00:14:55.700 align:center
And that's because not only do

00:14:55.780 --> 00:14:58.241 align:center
I have years of experience

00:14:58.301 --> 00:15:00.342 align:center
in the industry, including my years

00:15:00.402 --> 00:15:01.723 align:center
with Dorian and Temple,

00:15:03.973 --> 00:15:06.694 align:center
But everything that you get from

00:15:06.774 --> 00:15:09.075 align:center
me, every part of your program,

00:15:09.256 --> 00:15:11.036 align:center
every part of the coaching process

00:15:11.457 --> 00:15:12.677 align:center
will be done by me.

00:15:13.538 --> 00:15:15.999 align:center
Every communication you write to me,

00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:17.860 align:center
I will write to you back

00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:18.600 align:center
personally.

00:15:19.200 --> 00:15:21.721 align:center
Every Zoom call we have, it

00:15:21.781 --> 00:15:23.562 align:center
will be with me and not

00:15:23.742 --> 00:15:25.083 align:center
a member of my team.

00:15:25.983 --> 00:15:27.804 align:center
Now the benefits I'm sure you

00:15:27.864 --> 00:15:30.145 align:center
realize are huge having this level

00:15:30.185 --> 00:15:31.486 align:center
of personal detail.

00:15:32.066 --> 00:15:33.127 align:center
The downside is,

00:15:33.697 --> 00:15:35.919 align:center
that I can only offer a

00:15:36.059 --> 00:15:38.781 align:center
small number of places, otherwise the

00:15:38.861 --> 00:15:41.282 align:center
service that I give will begin

00:15:41.563 --> 00:15:43.984 align:center
to decline and that's not something

00:15:44.104 --> 00:15:45.285 align:center
that I'm prepared to do.

00:15:47.166 --> 00:15:49.128 align:center
It's the very reason I have

00:15:49.168 --> 00:15:52.370 align:center
a consultation process with every potential

00:15:52.450 --> 00:15:55.432 align:center
client, basically to see whether or

00:15:55.452 --> 00:15:57.173 align:center
not I'm the right coach for

00:15:57.254 --> 00:15:59.275 align:center
you and if you're the right

00:15:59.335 --> 00:16:00.015 align:center
client for me.

00:16:01.209 --> 00:16:02.731 align:center
because it would serve neither of

00:16:02.851 --> 00:16:04.352 align:center
us if we were two or

00:16:04.392 --> 00:16:06.454 align:center
three months down the line only

00:16:06.494 --> 00:16:08.616 align:center
for you to discover that I'm

00:16:08.676 --> 00:16:10.098 align:center
not providing you with what you

00:16:10.178 --> 00:16:12.580 align:center
need and you're not providing me

00:16:13.101 --> 00:16:15.543 align:center
or giving me to the process

00:16:16.083 --> 00:16:17.285 align:center
what I expect you to give

00:16:17.325 --> 00:16:18.105 align:center
to the process.

00:16:19.046 --> 00:16:20.888 align:center
So whether it's for live coaching

00:16:21.529 --> 00:16:22.710 align:center
where you will receive

00:16:23.621 --> 00:16:27.763 align:center
a very personal and deep connection,

00:16:28.404 --> 00:16:30.925 align:center
help and support with every aspect

00:16:30.965 --> 00:16:31.625 align:center
of your life.

00:16:33.506 --> 00:16:35.447 align:center
Often through Zoom, but if possible,

00:16:36.088 --> 00:16:39.009 align:center
we can do person to person,

00:16:39.710 --> 00:16:41.631 align:center
or if it's just physique coaching

00:16:41.811 --> 00:16:45.213 align:center
online, then just get in touch.

00:16:45.933 --> 00:16:47.994 align:center
Now, even if we don't end

00:16:48.054 --> 00:16:50.415 align:center
up working with each other, it's

00:16:50.515 --> 00:16:51.356 align:center
always a pleasure

00:16:51.966 --> 00:16:53.988 align:center
to connect and to meet with

00:16:54.088 --> 00:16:56.149 align:center
new people all around the world

00:16:56.790 --> 00:16:59.132 align:center
and share a path even if

00:16:59.192 --> 00:17:01.354 align:center
it's just for a one-hour consultation.

00:17:02.795 --> 00:17:03.976 align:center
Now one thing else I would

00:17:04.176 --> 00:17:06.298 align:center
add with regards specifically to the

00:17:06.358 --> 00:17:10.181 align:center
life coaching is that it with

00:17:10.241 --> 00:17:11.942 align:center
regards to relationships.

00:17:13.904 --> 00:17:15.625 align:center
I've been married for years 30

00:17:16.646 --> 00:17:19.008 align:center
now that's not to gloat in

00:17:19.108 --> 00:17:21.009 align:center
any way whatsoever but it is

00:17:21.110 --> 00:17:21.150 align:center
to

00:17:22.310 --> 00:17:24.852 align:center
let you know that I've got

00:17:24.932 --> 00:17:27.334 align:center
experience of the highs and the

00:17:27.414 --> 00:17:31.378 align:center
lows that everybody experiences through

00:17:31.458 --> 00:17:32.299 align:center
relationships.

00:17:33.640 --> 00:17:36.843 align:center
And that knowledge that you have

00:17:36.883 --> 00:17:40.446 align:center
to consistently keep working at every

00:17:40.526 --> 00:17:43.328 align:center
relationship that you truly value is

00:17:43.448 --> 00:17:45.230 align:center
one that I've learned over the

00:17:45.270 --> 00:17:45.610 align:center
years.

00:17:46.851 --> 00:17:48.513 align:center
So as I'll leave you now,

00:17:49.233 --> 00:17:49.954 align:center
if you're interested,

00:17:50.509 --> 00:17:51.870 align:center
please just click on the relevant

00:17:51.910 --> 00:17:53.970 align:center
page and connect with me.

00:17:54.991 --> 00:17:57.212 align:center
But, as my followers on social

00:17:57.252 --> 00:17:59.053 align:center
media will know, I have a

00:17:59.093 --> 00:18:00.013 align:center
little catchphrase.

00:18:00.953 --> 00:18:02.354 align:center
And it's something that Dorian said

00:18:02.414 --> 00:18:04.595 align:center
to me on a leg day,

00:18:05.315 --> 00:18:07.136 align:center
way back over years ago,

00:18:07.936 --> 00:18:09.497 align:center
as my legs were giving out,

00:18:10.497 --> 00:18:12.218 align:center
my muscles were cramping, I was

00:18:12.298 --> 00:18:14.679 align:center
seeing stars and about to black

00:18:14.799 --> 00:18:14.959 align:center
out.

00:18:16.280 --> 00:18:18.681 align:center
Just at that point, he said

00:18:18.741 --> 00:18:18.961 align:center
to me,

00:18:20.572 --> 00:18:23.755 align:center
three more reps lad and i

00:18:23.815 --> 00:18:26.216 align:center
got them and whatever it is

00:18:26.257 --> 00:18:27.778 align:center
you're doing whether it's in the

00:18:27.838 --> 00:18:30.079 align:center
gym or whether it's in life

00:18:31.120 --> 00:18:34.063 align:center
there are three more reps inside

00:18:34.083 --> 00:18:36.424 align:center
of you at all times and

00:18:36.504 --> 00:18:39.387 align:center
yes i guarantee you you can

00:18:39.467 --> 00:18:41.508 align:center
get them so thank you for

00:18:41.568 --> 00:18:43.370 align:center
listening and i hope to hear

00:18:43.410 --> 00:18:45.311 align:center
from you and see you soon

00:18:45.712 --> 00:18:46.072 align:center
