12 Years Later: How One Call Changed My Life and Set Me on a Path to Help Others

On January 14th, 2013, I received a phone call that would forever change the course of my life: an invitation to become a Paralympic athlete. Now, 12 years later to the day, it feels surreal to reflect on that call and the extraordinary journey it set in motion.


That phone call, which started as a desire to race for my country and win medals for Great Britain, quickly became the catalyst for one of the most profound transformations of my life. I went from being an unhealthy sales director to becoming an athlete, learning to understand my body, my chronic pain, and my disability.

What I never anticipated was that this journey would lead to something much greater: the opportunity to help others achieve their own transformations.

Over the years, the lessons I’ve learned about my body, mind, and resilience have allowed me to manage my chronic pain in a way I never thought possible.


Understanding my pain, releasing its hold over me, and eventually stopping the chance of amputation has led me to work tirelessly to understand my pain without medication. This transformation has not only empowered me physically but has allowed me to perform at my highest potential and live the life I always dreamed of.


I’ve taken these experiences and applied them to create a coaching and wellbeing business. Through Zenval, I help people make changes they never thought possible, based on my own journey and the science that has allowed me to continue performing at my best despite a degenerative disability.


I’ll admit, I was initially resistant to share this work. I questioned, “What do I have to offer that others don’t already know?” But the results I’ve seen over the past year have proven just how effective this approach can be. The mind-body connection isn’t just theoretical, it’s real, and it works.


People I’ve worked with, across age groups from 24 to 67, have experienced miraculous changes in their health: mental health, body composition, chronic pain management, anxiety, and more, including weight loss, detoxification, and breaking free from yo-yo dieting.


As a current European Gold Medallist and World Silver Medallist at 52, competing against athletes half my age, I can tell you from personal experience: the science of mindset and resilience works. It’s the same science that allowed me to transform from an unhealthy sales director to an athlete, and it’s helping others unlock their peak potential every day.


In addition, I’ve formed exciting partnerships with the country’s leading practitioners in health, longevity, and high-performance training. These collaborations provide the latest science-backed strategies and techniques, empowering individuals to train with the true athletic flow that enhances personal performance and corporate resilience, an approach that has shown incredible results.


Today, I’m excited to announce the release of my programs and workshops, designed to support individuals and businesses alike. These transformative offerings have already produced remarkable results, and I’m thrilled to share them with you over the coming days and weeks.



I’ll also be sharing success stories from those who have made extraordinary changes. If any of these resonate with you or your team, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I look forward to connecting with you and helping you achieve lasting transformation and never forget, anything is possible, it's only ourselves that hold us back.



Thank you, Tim
