Our Story
The Story of Pattenden Peak Performance
The Origin Story
A story about identity, truth, and becoming who you choose to be.
We all have defining moments—experiences that shape how we see ourselves, the world, and what matters most. I’m no different.
My journey hasn’t been one dramatic shift, but a series of deeply personal moments—four of them in particular—that shaped how I see growth, performance, and what it truly means to live with purpose. Those moments gave birth to Pattenden Peak Performance. They took me from chasing identity… to choosing it.
From:
- Guilt to clarity
- Mislabelled to empowered
- Recognition-seeking to values-led
- Leading from ego to leading from authenticity
I’ve worked in sport, business, therapy, and leadership. I’ve held positions of responsibility and walked alongside people in struggle. I’ve failed. I’ve grown. And I’ve learned that becoming who you choose to be is life’s most courageous and meaningful work.
I built Pattenden Peak Performance for the people doing that work too.
Not just the ones breaking down—but the ones breaking through.
The ones carrying more than most people see.
The ones committed to purpose.
Driven by values.
Hungry for meaning.
Ready for change.
Our Purpose
To help people embrace who they are—and use it to become who they choose to be.
To unlock peak performance through purpose, strength, hope, and growth.
Our Mission
To create transformational coaching, therapy, and leadership development experiences that help people and systems move from pressure to purpose, emotional overload to clarity, and surface-level performance to identity-led growth.
We do this by working at the root—mindset, identity, emotional insight, and human connection—so individuals and cultures evolve from the inside out.
Our Vision
To build a world where people lead with clarity, grow with resilience, and perform with purpose.
Where organisations prioritise belonging over burnout.
And where our work becomes a ripple effect—passed on from those we’ve helped to those they go on to help.
One shift.
One courageous step.
One turning point at a time.
What We Believe
- People aren’t broken—they’re often carrying stories that need to be rewritten with compassion, not control.
- Growth should be accessible—not aspirational.
- Performance should never cost you your identity.
- Leadership is a reflection of personal growth, not positional power.
- Sport, work, and life are all arenas for becoming.
- Belonging, not burnout, is the real performance edge.
