I highly recommend Rod for anyone looking to grow their small business while achieving greater work-life balance.  His coaching over the past 18 months has been invaluable in helping me streamline my business operations, 3x revenue, and set healthy boundaries. With Rod’s help, I’ve not only seen incredible business growth but created more time to spend with my wife and children. I’m forever grateful for Rod and his coaching.

Rod is one of the most insightful humans you are likely to encounter in the coaching sphere. He has a unique ability to listen deeply and respond from a place where insights are able to organically emerge. And yet he also works from a background of intellectual rigor, empirical data, and structural mastery. To hold space as Rod does, in multiple realms simultaneously— the liminal, the embodied, the intellectual, the instinctive, the heart and the head- as a coach takes exceptional craft, skill, knowledge, and presence. A rare combination. Working with Rod has deeply shaped my life and work, and my wish is that many others will also receive the impactful experience of sharing their precious time together with him.” 

Rod has impacted my life as a coach, instructor, mentor, and friend. His compassion, insightfulness, and mastery of the art of coaching, combined with joyful anticipation of what might emerge in one’s life when focused on what is possible, is a powerful combination. If you are fortunate enough to work with Rod and experience this firsthand, you will find yourself well on your way toward whatever you have set out to accomplish on your way toward fulfillment.

Working with Rod was a life changing decision for me. As I reflect it was Rod’s nature of holding space for me to think, for him to be a support to me, listen and not judge. Over time this gave me permission to be kinder to myself and free up so many more opportunities. This has been liberating for me and I am truly grateful.

Rod … helped me pioneer a path through a forest of forces in my life that had been keeping me stuck for years. His ability to actively listen to my story and mirror back unexamined aspects of it, gave me the agency I needed to level up. Rod Francis has my highest recommendation.

My life can be split into two phases: before Rod and after Rod! His coaching helped me to sit up straight, speak my truth, and seize the career I wanted but never dared to reach for. If you’re reading these words, I implore you to seek Rod’s advice immediately. I guarantee he will rejuvenate your life.

I have a lot of respect for the way in which Rod embodies what he stands for. Whether it be in his role as a coach or as a teacher, he lives and breathes Presence. Coaching with him is a transformative experience which helps me understand, a little more deeply each time, who I am and how I want to show up in this world. The space he creates during the sessions and the wisdom he brings to the process enable me to access invaluable insights and the motivation to take meaningful action. He is an inspiration for the coach I aspire to be.

So much has changed in the six months I’ve been working with Rod that I feel like I am a new person. When we started, I felt overwhelmed and was under a constant stress of work. In our first session, thanks to Rod, I finally saw that a lot of what was happening was the effect of my decisions, not external circumstances. Rod helped me to set developmental goals and to build a life I wanted and to live it in an easy-going, efficient, fun way. Within a few sessions, I was a changed person. The issues I struggled with for years disappeared one by one. I felt lighter and happier. Interestingly, all of the sudden, numerous professional opportunities appeared, almost as if the Universe was providing me with what I wished for. It’s been an amazing ride since Rod and I started working and I can’t wait to see what the next six months will bring!

After 20 years of working in the software industry, climbing the ladder and growing a family with three kids, I came up for air and started looking for what should come next. How do I aim for that next level in life and career?  Rod has been instrumental in helping me work through goal setting, creating more self awareness and clarity of feelings and values. His process and resources have helped me gain valuable insight, skills and habits that have set me on the course of personal and professional growth both exciting and rewarding.

I don’t want to think about what my life would have been, had I not been coached by Rod. For anyone wanting a catalyst for radical change … you cannot find anyone better …!

If you are ruminating about coaching with Rod just do it! I found him to be a wise, patient coach and I always came away from our wide ranging sessions feeling a greater sense of energy and purpose. I’m quite analytical by training and the tools he introduced me to had a positive practical effect on the immediate issues I was working through and continue to be useful. Highly recommended.

My time with Rod has been a very enlightening and positive experience. My world broadened allowing me to be open to a greater understanding of myself and what is important to me and those around me and do so in line with my beliefs and values. Where there were constraints and barriers to personal understanding and achievement, my work with Rod, instead provided me with a sense of freedom, awareness and belief. Rod’s approach allowed me to adapt many aspects of his work to provide an equal amount of success in helping to create sustained positive change for my own clients’

I started working with Rod a few months ago. In this time I have been through some profound changes due to the work we have done together. (The) work has been exceptionally surprising and revealing to me, even after 13 years of various kinds of personal development work – I found I was very surprised by the simplicity and depth of this experience … What I set out to achieve has radically changed, some of my goals have already manifested whilst I am really getting to the heart of what I really want and what is of real truth to me in other areas. This again has been unexpected and I feel that I am very gently starting to trust myself and new approaches to life … It has been a gift.

I had the good fortune of coaching with Rod. I accomplished more personal growth and insight in an hour than I had in working with other professionals for years. Rod helped me work through and clear personal trauma in a caring and effective way. Working with Rod is a powerful and effective route to helping you overcome what is holding you back or make the changes you desire in your life.
