For much of his life, Joel was anxious. 

​

Joel suffered from depression and anxiety from middle school onwards. At times it was a mild tension, and he could function. Other days, it was bad. 

​

Instead of going to university, Joel went to naturopathic college to become a naturopath, herbalist, and overall health geek. 

​

While there, he came across NLP. 

​

At this stage, he was deep into counselling. Very deep. 

​

Neurolinguistic programming appeared to be a way out of the system, to heal himself, to recover independence and empowerment, and figure out what was going on. 

​

He signed up to do practitioner level NLP in Auckland in 2008. 

​

Best. Decision. Ever. 

​

It didn't fix everything. Of course not. 

​

But it gave him tools Joel never new existed, and never needed counselling again.

​

Later Joel qualified as a NLP practitioner, herbalist, naturopath, Reiki master, and came across David in Christchurch, New Zealand.

​

The two fell in love, and become one of those strange, rare couples, that talk personal development and MBTI over dinner. 

​

It took quite a few years of nagging before he got David to open his coaching practice.

​

Today, Joel enjoys his dream to be a crazy hermit in the woods, brewing herbs and potions, baking bread, and talking to plants. 

​

He is also David's web developer/designer. 

​

David is very grateful.
