About your coach

I escaped the rat race at 43.

After 20+ years as a chartered accountant and finance director, I reached financial independence and left full-time work. Since 2013 I've written about it at The Escape Artist, read by hundreds of thousands.

"Financial freedom isn't about deprivation. It's about buying back your time."

No products, no commission, no jargon — just clear thinking and a steady hand.
