Meet Seven
I’m Seven! I’m a Hypnotherapist and Coach specializing in confidence, power, and flow to help ambitious founders and professionals.
Now I bring that work into organisations so your people do not have to learn those lessons the hard way, at the cost of their health or your business results. I use my unique methodologies and my decade of programme design experience to deliver human‑centered programmes that create the best teams on the planet.
Are your people effective?
Or are they:
Bringing others down and affecting the culture,
Getting into conflict,
Burning out but pretending they are “fine”,
Afraid of something that keeps everyone from even greater success,
Avoiding visibility or responsibility because they don’t feel “good enough”,
Overthinking or freezing in high‑stakes situations,
Or simply self-sabotaging without knowing it?
This happens because teams or leaders outsource power because of fear, expectations, or survival patterns. So, the subtle bottleneck is how people show up each and every day.
Together, we build the skills and inner capacity:
We’ll help your people to handle pressure,
Communicate better,
Work in flow, achieving more without burning out,
Reducing churn,
Helping your company stand out in an AI world,
Able to close more deals,
And create a more effective culture overall!
We work so that your people stop getting in their own way and start going after the bigger opportunities in front of them.
How I work with organisations
Much of society is structured so that you empower someone or something else to have power over you.
But your power is within, so why outsource it to someone else?
My aim is to inspire participants and listeners to step into their full potential, reawakening that power within to improve their confidence, get out of their own way, and become the kind of leader that they want to see more of in the world, so they stop getting in their own way and start going after the bigger opportunities in front of them.
So, we design and deliver learning and development programmes that help leaders and teams communicate better, lead with more presence, and perform with less stress and reactivity.
We also partner with organisations for fractional L&D services, helping shape people development strategy, design programmes, and deliver learning experiences that actually change behaviour.
That is how we build the best teams on the planet.
Topic Areas Include:
-
Help your leaders and teams train their nervous system and mindset so they perform when it matters most. We focus on practical tools for state management, stress regulation and mental resilience, so people can stay grounded in negotiations, pitches, conflict and big decisions.
Why companies bring this in
Leaders are visibly stretched and reactive.
Key people are burning out or quietly checking out.
Important decisions, negotiations or conversations get delayed because people feel overwhelmed or afraid of getting it wrong.
What we actually work on
Training the nervous system to settle under pressure, using practical breath, posture and attention tools people can use in real time.
Building simple reset protocols so setbacks, conflicts and bad days do not drag performance and mood down for weeks.
Helping leaders think clearly and choose better actions when they are tired, emotional or under scrutiny.
Working with the stories underneath (“I always mess this up”, “I’m not a natural leader”) so people stop quietly shrinking themselves.
The result is that leaders and teams feel less fried and more in control. They can go into negotiations, hard conversations, launches and crunch periods with more calm, energy and headspace, instead of oscillating between overdrive and collapse.
-
Build the skillset and psychology of communication that makes people listen, trust and follow. We work on the energy and mechanics of presence so leaders can hold a room, tell better stories and navigate difficult conversations with more courage and care.
Why companies bring this in
Smart people struggle to hold a room or land a message.
Important feedback and difficult truths get softened until nothing changes.
Senior leaders sound good on slides but lose people when they speak live.
Culture work stalls because nobody knows how to talk about the real issues.
What we actually work on
Presence and power in the room: body language, eye contact and stillness that feel grounded rather than performative.
Clear, direct language that invites buy‑in instead of triggering defensiveness, including work on hedging, apology language and “softening” habits.
Voice and delivery: pace, tone, emphasis and silence, so what people say and how they say it finally match.
Storytelling and likeability: using real stories and honest vulnerability to connect, while still holding authority.
The result is that your leaders become easier to follow. They speak so people understand, feel and act. Tough conversations become more honest and less explosive. Rooms feel held instead of vaguely uncomfortable.
-
Support for founder teams and revenue‑critical leaders who need to sell, raise and negotiate under intense scrutiny, without losing themselves to stress, self‑doubt or overperformance. The work blends state, communication and commercial understanding so they can sell, raise and negotiate from a grounded place instead of fear.
Why companies bring this in
Founders and senior operators are brilliant but inconsistent in high‑stakes rooms.
Sales, partnership or investment conversations depend too heavily on one or two “naturals”.
People either avoid commercial conversations or push too hard and damage trust.
What we actually work on
A healthier revenue and leadership mindset, so talking about money, value and risk feels clear, not awkward or shame‑triggering.
Investor and stakeholder psychology: what decision‑makers actually look for beyond the deck or proposal, and how to show up as backable and believable.
Pitch and presentation work across formats, from 60‑second intros to investor meetings and client pitches, including handling Q&A without collapsing or attacking.
Negotiation and objection‑handling skills that feel firm and fair, aligned with your values, and sustainable over the long term.
The result is that leaders, founders, and commercial teams are able to sit across from investors, customers and partners with calm energy, clear language and a believable presence. They stop leaking deals and opportunities because their nervous system or self‑doubt took over at the exact wrong moment.
“Working with Seven was a pleasure. For years, I struggled with rigid, defensive body language whenever I spoke in public, and I felt like I was guarding myself rather than connecting with my audience.
From our very first session, Seven took the time to listen deeply and truly understand the root of my challenges. He guided me through a thoughtful exploration of the beliefs and experiences that were keeping me closed off. By breaking down those walls, I began to see where my tension was coming from, and how to prevent it.
Seven’s personalised program combined insightful coaching with practical tools. His step-by-step approach gave me confidence to move with ease instead of defensiveness.
Today, I speak with a presence that feels authentic and engaging. I no longer recoil under public speaking pressure and welcome it. Thanks to Seven, public speaking has transformed from my greatest challenge into one of my most powerful strengths.”

"You clearly know the [psychology and neuroscience], but that’s only part of the puzzle… You were able to relate it to me, to a specific case and personality, and bring out exactly what was needed. You asked the right questions very quickly to [bring out the solution]. I can see why it’s so valuable to entrepreneurs!”
-
"Working with Seven was an absolute pleasure. He was warm, friendly and engagement, and had an excellent stage presence. His insights on entrepreneurship—from team building to managing imposter syndrome—struck the perfect balance between candid reality and actionable advice. His engaging presence and endless energy keep audiences hooked, making even lengthy sessions fly by."
-
"Seven is super engaging and sharp as a presenter, he truly delivers an engaging teaching style, with great care for all students in the class. Seven is a superstar!"
-
"The public speaking workshop covered everything I needed for me to improve my public speaking skills. I never felt this good in a long time when it came to engaging in meaningful workshops. I've got so much to learn from you, Seven! I found a gem."
-
"Wanted to send a huge thank you for everything you’ve done for us over the past few months. Your insight and guidance was always spot on and I will be forever grateful for the program that you put together. I have quite a few favorite sessions but, if I had to name one, it would be the one where you convinced us to think of this process as a game - it changed my world. While I’m sad to see the program come to an end I am super happy to be able to call myself an alum. Many many thanks!"
-
"Amazing event today, I knew it was going to be good, but it was beyond what I imagined. You’re unlocking the internals, which 99% of the world is missing, myself included. As we move into a more AI world, we need to lean into more of our humanity, which is energy, energy in motion (emotion) and mastering that like an AI is mastering the internet and the codes of language."
How We Work With Companies
This is the Learning & Development Programmes arm of my work. Instead of dropping in for a one‑off workshop, we design and deliver people programmes that run over time, so your leaders and teams actually change how they show up under pressure.
We blend talks, workshops and implementation support into programmes that run over weeks or months, so the work actually sticks in your culture.
We handle:
Programme design
We start by understanding your context, the pressure your people are under and the behaviours you want to see more of. Together we define clear outcomes for leaders and teams, then map a journey that fits your timelines and budget.Delivery blocks
Programmes are built from practical building blocks such as keynote kick‑offs, half‑day or full‑day labs, cohort sessions and integration clinics. These can be delivered in person, online, or in a blended format across locations.Integration and follow‑through
Between sessions, participants work with simple tools and reflection practices that bring the content into real meetings, conversations and decisions. We can include manager touchpoints, peer groups and light assessment so you can see what is changing over time.
Understand the gap
We start with short discovery conversations and a simple audit of what is happening in your organisation now. Where are your people leaking energy, confidence and communication capacity What are the high‑pressure moments that matter most for your business outcome areas like leadership, sales, client work or culture
This gives us a clear picture of your current state vs your desired state for your leaders and teams.
Design the journey
Based on that picture, we design a programme that usually includes:
A kick‑off to align people around why this matters.
Workshops that focus on specific skills and states, for example high‑pressure performance, presence and communication, or founder performance under pressure.
Cohort or leadership sessions that take the work deeper for key groups.
Surveys, feedback, and results tracking to improve over time and show ROI.
deliver results
We bring in the facilitators, deliver the programme, track changes, and co-create everything with your team to as much of an extent as you would like or need.
You get a deep transformation while being hands-off, and by the end will have captured what changed, what people found most useful, and where the next layer of growth is.
By the time we’re done, the people-skills your team has will have had an opportunity like never before to create even deeper value.
Though we can also come into for training and talks that sit within your existing programmes, the most valuable work we can do together is to cover the end to end experience.
Our job is to design and run the programmes that make that make your teams the best on the planet.
