I believe that people from the LGBT+ and kinky communities deserve to become more successful in their work and more integrated in their lives.
Whether you’re LGBT+ or kinky, you’ll know that you have to hold part of your story back every time you seek help to build your business or move forward to your goals. You’re already doing OK in your work but you could do better.
You’re not drawing on all the resources you have within you, because you fear judgement, feel shame or unsafe. You’re prevented from achieving your full potential.

James is a trans man who was looking to move from London back to his home country after the Brexit vote. He needed to create a plan for life and career change that took into account his skills in the workplace whilst recognising the complex web of relationships he was in.
Coaching helped him to identify what he really wanted in life and how to utilise the skills from his personal life to push him further to success at work. He ended up staying in London, but living a much more connected life.
Sherry lives in the southern United States. She has dreams of becoming a successful screenwriter but was held back by circumstances outside her control. A queer person of colour, Sherry found acceptance of her true self hard to find.
Her online and in-person sex work business allows her the space to create her art, but she needed it to become more successful and to increase her income.
Working together with English Leather Master coaching allowed Sherry to develop her online persona and style to bring in more money and clients whilst avoiding potential dangers that would negatively affect her future chances.
Marc is a European living in Bangkok. He works at a school populated by Thai pupils who are taught in English as the head of the foreign teacher section.
Marc found the role challenging as there was constant tension between the requirements of the school and the teachers he dealt with. Having had no formal leadership training, Marc found that he didn't know the best way to manage the team whilst pushing back on the school owners' demands.
Through coaching, Marc found ways that worked for him to improve his leadership, time management and relationships with both the school owners and the teachers he leads.
I am a family physician, who recently made a career move to becoming a chief medical officer of a community clinic. After working at this position for 4 months, I realized that I needed more information to improve my leadership and communication skills.
I approached Matthew, and he coached me once a week over 8 sessions.
Using this period he assisted me in taking inventory of my skill sets by asking questions from basic, simple ones to deeper, difficult ones; which allowed me to assess and at times restructure approaches to problem solving.
He discussed several different relationship models which helped me use new tools and perspectives to help improve interpersonal communication skills.
He did all of this, with a direct, non-threatening non-judgmental, sincere manner; using clear, direct, understandable language.
He was both serious and humorous.
The time and money that I spent on Matthew’s coaching was well worth it; and I would seek his assistance again, if needed.

Matthew is one of the kindest and most intelligent people I've ever encountered. He gave me realistic expectations and goals for my business. While remaining empathetic, he painted a picture for me about how I could map out my life, and helped me draft up a plan on steps to get there. He has helped me to begin branding my business and finding my niche in an already saturated industry.
He offers notes after each session so I'm abreast of my progress, and has really helped me come out of my shell. My only regret is not finding him sooner. Book with him! Even one session with him can be life-changing with this funny, charming, and brilliant English gentlemen.

I am a gay man who works in a senior role at a FTSE250 company. Despite having a very successful career, I was struggling to achieve the same level of success in my personal life.
Through 20 coaching sessions, I was able to bring my whole self to coaching and set goals consistent with my full self and learn how to integrate my professional life and skills with my personal life. I was then able to use these skills to improve my personal life and move toward a more authentic, fulfilling life consistent with my passions and goals.

I had sessions with ELM over 3 months during which he was able to really drill into some of the life aspects and internal thoughts that seemed to so often hold me back. He helped me to question and challenge some of my own perceptions, which has been invaluable in moving me closer to my goal. Also being able to discuss kink in my life so openly with ELM, and in a professional way, has been so refreshing.
