Coaching & Mentorship.

Coaching & Mentorship.

For freelancers and creatives who want to grow without the burnout.

Honest guidance, practical systems and a new level of confidence in your work.

For freelancers who want more confidence, better clients, and work that feels sustainable.

Freelancing isn’t hard because you lack skill.

It’s hard because you’re doing everything at once.

The work.
The pricing.
The decisions.
The doubt.
The next move.

Mentorship gives you a place to step out of the noise and think clearly about what actually matters.

Why Freelancers Need Mentorship

When you freelance, there’s no sounding board.

Every decision is yours.
Every mistake feels personal.
Every win disappears quickly into the next problem.

You’re expected to:

  • Be confident

  • Price correctly

  • Choose the right clients

  • Grow without burning out

  • And somehow enjoy it all

Mentorship gives you something simple but rare: a steady second perspective you can trust.

How We Work Together

This is not about being told what to do.

It’s about thinking better — together.

We meet regularly.
We talk through what’s on your plate.
We untangle what feels messy.
We decide what’s worth your energy next.

You bring:

  • Questions

  • Half-formed ideas

  • Uncertainty

  • Ambition

  • Frustration

I bring:

  • Perspective

  • Pattern recognition

  • Experience from hundreds of similar conversations

  • Calm when everything feels urgent

Together, we reduce the noise.

What You’ll Start to Notice

Freelancers often tell me they gain:

  • Clarity - About what to focus on and what to let go of.

  • Confidence - In pricing, proposals and conversations.

  • Calmer decision-making - Less reacting. More choosing.

  • Better boundaries - Without guilt or fear.

  • Momentum - That feels sustainable, not exhausting.

This isn’t about doing more work.

It’s about doing work that makes sense.

LA NEEN

“Thad is one of the most helpful, caring, and knowledgable mentors I’ve ever had. The combination of his industry experience, easy-going demeanour, and respect for others creates an educational atmosphere that is value-packed yet engaging.”


NATALIE BROWN

“Thad is a fantastic business mentor. I’ve learnt so much from him in the time we’ve been working together. Our sessions are always very informative as well as incredibly inspiring - I always come away with tones of new ideas for my business! Thad is patient and always takes time to thoroughly explain anything I don’t understand. I would highly recommend Thad as a mentor!”


RICHARD REED

“Thad has a way of sharing his design experience and business knowledge that’s open and engaging. He has a genuine want for others to succeed and delivers his course with no filler and actionable insight. I would recommend Thad’s course for those wanting to improve their design business and learn from someone with high level experience and down to earth delivery.”


MUNUEEBAH WAHEED

“Thad is by far one of the best mentors I have come across. He is not only skilled in creative leadership which is grounded in business knowledge, but he also knows how to impart this through direction and guidance because of his excellent coaching and people skills. His recommendations and suggestions always come from a non-judgmental, empathic approach, leaving you feeling safe to be vulnerable with your specific struggles, knowing that he is always looking out for you.”

Who This Is For

  • You freelance full-time or want to

  • You’re good at what you do but feel under-confident selling it

  • Your pricing feels uncertain or inconsistent

  • You want fewer clients, not more stress

  • You’re tired of guessing what the “right” move is

You don’t need fixing.
You need space, perspective and steady support.

What This Is Not

  • A content funnel

  • Productivity hacks

  • Generic advice

It’s a relationship built around your work, your goals, and your reality.

And more like yours.

How It Works

This is simple by design.

We start with a conversation
A calm, no-pressure call to understand where you are and what you want help with.

We agree a rhythm
Usually monthly sessions, sometimes more or less depending on need.
No rigid programmes.

Each session is focused and practical
We talk through what’s happening in your business right now.
We untangle decisions.
We sense-check ideas.
We slow things down when needed and speed them up when it’s time.

You leave with clarity
Not homework.
Not overwhelm.
Just a clearer sense of what matters next.

Over time, patterns emerge
Confidence grows.
Decisions get easier.
Your business starts to feel more intentional.

Mentorship Investment

Mentorship works best when there’s enough commitment to slow down, think clearly, and actually act.

For that reason, mentorship is offered in 90-day seasons.

90-Day Mentorship

£995

  • Three one-to-one sessions over 90 days

  • Space to think, decide and move deliberately

  • Support between sessions if needed

  • A review and recalibration at the end of the season

This is designed for freelancers who are stable enough to take guidance seriously and turn it into action.


Ongoing Mentorship

After the initial 90 days, continued mentorship is available by mutual agreement.

£350 per month
Reviewed quarterly.

No long contracts.
No obligation to continue.
Just ongoing support if it’s still useful.

Mentorship is intentionally kept small. Not to limit progress, but to create the space where clear thinking turns into confident action.

It works best when you’re clear on what you want, excited to move, and supported without being steered.
