"After finishing my army service, I was thrown into civilian life. I went from a place where purpose and meaning were built into everything I did and struggled to find direction in civilian life.
Working with Adam through Ascend gave me the space to slow down and really understand myself and what I’m looking for now. In the middle of all the noise, having dedicated time to think deeply was grounding and energising. Together we built a path that genuinely excites me, and I now feel confident that I have the clarity and tools to move forward. I’d recommend Ascend to anyone looking to rediscover purpose and direction during a major transition."
"Working with Adam has been a truly grounding and transformative experience for me.
His coaching gave me the tools and structure to understand myself on a much deeper level. Throughout the process, I’ve gained a more solid understanding of my values, motivations, and the patterns that shape my decisions.
Through a clear and comprehensive process, I’ve gained clarity around what actually matters to me and how to live in alignment with that. Rather than feeling scattered or stuck in overthinking, I now feel like I’m on a steady path toward a more intentional and aligned life, with a much stronger sense of self-awareness and direction."
"Talking to Adam is more than a conversation. He takes you in directions you're not expecting. And he gently persuades you to address the issues you need to address - especially those you'd rather avoid! I never realised an hour of "conversation" could be so productive."
"Before starting with Ascend, I felt like I lacked clear career direction and had a lot of uncertainty about the future. Adam has a way of laying out your life and options so you can properly analyse what makes the most sense for you. Through the process, everything became clearer, and I now feel confident about where I’m heading and what steps I need to take next."
"Adam was able to get me focused on the areas that I wanted to strengthen, explore and improve. He helped me clarify my goals and then break them down into values and practical skills I could cultivate in a way that was meaningful to me. He listens calmly and asks challenging questions so, together, we created a plan to work my goals into my life and make things happen."
