Who am I?

Alec Wills | Mind Coach at Life Zest Health

If you’ve got to this page then you are likely already looking for a coach and don’t need to know why you need one. If this isn’t the case, check my coaching page first.

What you really want to know is why you should choose me as your coach.


How to choose a coach?

  1. Work out what you want, e.g. “better quality of life” or “find motivation”
  2. Look for coaches in that area or with relevant experience
  3. Check qualifications, references, etc
  4. Try them out, read their bios, give them a call

You don’t need to like your coach, but it helps to trust and respect them. You’re unlikely to do either without getting to know me a little. The free 20-minute demonstration call is a great way of doing this. Reading the rest of this page may also help.

I know I won’t suit everyone and frankly not everyone will suit me. It is important that we can have a professional relationship. 


What are you like?

  • Seeking greater fulfilment beyond professional success in your respective field
  • Realizing the disparity between expectations and reality as a millennial professional
  • Experiencing a sense of mediocrity despite an overall satisfactory situation
  • Confronting the daunting task of embarking on a substantial project, such as writing a book, without a clear starting point
  • Encountering challenges in effective communication, including performance, presentations, and being acknowledged
  • Aspiring to enhance communication and problem-solving skills, recognizing their significance for personal growth
  • Deliberating a significant change, be it a career transition or relocation
  • Navigating the complexities of being a new business owner with an overwhelming workload and uncertain next steps

Am I relevant to you?

What do I know how to do that you need right now?

  • How to face challenges both big and small
  • How to plan to meet your objectives
  • How to learn and identify what skills or resources you are missing
  • How to prioritise tasks so that there is continual progress
  • How to hold you accountable to take action
  • How to have fun getting it done​

Some challenges I have personally faced and overcome;

  • Completed a PhD in Chemistry – a three-year project that included skilling up, lecturing/presenting, hard work and writing a 300,000 word book.
  • IT Service Management career – a change of career from Chemistry to IT, reskilling, large numbers of complex projects, corporate and SME companies, using structured frameworks to deliver efficient and high-quality services, i.e. a highly logical thinker.
  • Emigrated Family – change of country, complete restart of life, i.e. new home, new schools, new job, new car, new bank, without friends, without family, no support, etc. Massive personal change.
  • Healthy body – finding motivation to correct nutrition and levels of exercise.
  • Hypnotist, NLP Coach – a change of career from IT to therapist/coach, reskilling, patching people instead of systems.

Common across all of my challenges;

  • Change Management – I’ve been there and done it from the massive, e.g. emigrating, to the medium, e.g. career change, to the small e.g. implementing a new IT system
  • Education – I’ve never stopped, having succeeded to the highest levels in academia and across multiple disciplines in work both soft and technical
  • Teaching – In the majority of my challenges I have had the opportunity to teach others with less skill, this includes chemistry, IT, coaching, communications and problem solving. I’m good at it, how do I know, because students regularly tell me and I see the results.
  • Setting goals and planning

Great but can I coach?

I am an experienced and certified Life and Success Coach, Master NLP Practitioner, and Master Clinical Hypnotherapist. With over two decades of coaching expertise, I consistently update my skills to provide the best service to my clients. If you are seeking hypnotherapy to overcome unwanted behaviours, I invite you to visit my clinical hypnotherapy practice at Life Zest Health.

As an introvert, I prefer to let my results and client feedback speak for themselves. Over the years, my clients have achieved exceptional results, and their feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. I continuously strive to improve, ensuring that my coaching skills are constantly honed, e.g. I use coaches myself.

If you would like to experience my coaching firsthand, I offer a complimentary 20-minute demonstration call. I have a diverse background that allows me to communicate effectively with various audiences, whether it’s independent professionals, all levels of organisations large or small, or individuals across a broad spectrum of everyday life.

I invite you to connect with me to witness the value I can bring to your life or professional journey.


A little bit about me.

I have a wonderful wife, two beautiful sons, two cats and a dog, so I’m very much a typical family man. My interests include kitesurfing, technology and you.
