Hi, I’m Keith and I started on my emotional intelligence journey through my own personal voyage of self discovery. I was born in Zimbabwe in 1964 and moved to the UK when I was very young. However, I was bullied at school by some of my teachers and a lot of the students because of my mixed race heritage and dyslexia. I first came across ‘personal development’ listening to audio tapes, which I used to help me deal with subsequent low self esteem and anger.
After many years listening to personal growth books and associating with like minded people, I came across the subject of Emotional Intelligence, which took things to a whole new level and knowing how powerful it is, wished I had found out about it years earlier. It was on a retreat back in 2011, where I was introduced to firewalking. It was on these firewalks that I discovered how powerful a tool this was.
Having said this, on my first firewalk I thought everyone was nuts! However, I could not ignore the profound results that people were having around me, so I had to do another one! Since then I have been a Firewalking, Emotional Intelligence Coach and Speaker, safely guiding hundreds of people from all walks of life over hot coals. I am a member of the Global Firewalking Association and also co-host events for other training and coaching companies.
Using a combination of coaching, fire walks, glass walks and other activities I work with both individuals 1-2-1 and companies, to facilitate positive change and wellbeing, whilst teaching people the steps they can apply in order to live the lives they were born to live.
