Danny

Health and Wellbeing Coach

Hi, I’m Danny. I use exercise as a tool to enhance mental health. Whether you're struggling with depression, anxiety, or just feeling like you've lost your sense of self, I believe I can help you reconnect with who you truly are. Through movement, conversation, and consistent support, we can work together to rediscover YOU.

My Story

After a major life change ended my 30-year career in finance, I found myself at a crossroads. No clear direction—just a need to keep moving forward. That turning point taught me just how powerful a mindset shift can be.

I’d spent years as a semi-professional sportsman and had long-standing roots in fitness. So, I made a decision to blend my experience in leadership and sport with my passion for personal growth. That’s how Benefit Body and Mind was born—a space for people to grow emotionally, mentally, and physically, all at once.

My approach is holistic and human. We look at your goals and challenges together and work to create meaningful, lasting change. The process is personal, and the focus is always on your development—psychological, physical, and emotional.

Why I Do This

I’ve developed a deep passion for supporting people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about their next steps. I’ve been there myself, and I know how important it is to have someone in your corner.

What I’ve learned is that by focusing on what we can control—and letting go of what we can’t—we begin to build real momentum. We don’t need to have all the answers. We just need a plan, belief, and support.

I specialise in working with people who:

• Struggle with anxiety or depression

• Feel stuck, isolated, or unmotivated

• Want to regain control, feel stronger, or improve overall wellbeing

• Are looking to lose weight and rebuild a positive mindset

I offer:

• Walk & Talk sessions

• Gym-based training

• Swimming and activity-based support

• 1:1 conversations built around movement

• Nutritional guidance

Everything is designed to strengthen both your body and your mind.

"Danny didn’t tell me what to do. He listened—really listened. No one had done that before. I was the only one being negative, and he never joined me in that. From our first walk, he helped me shift my mindset. Mantras like ‘if it doesn’t challenge you, it can’t change you ’and ‘there’s a CAN in can’t ’stuck with me."
