A few weeks ago I was struggling with multiple issues at one time. I was about to have a mental breakdown and was feeling like all was lost. I was experiencing intense anxiety and fear. I could feel these emotions in my throat and chest as a burdening pressure. Thankfully, I was able to get on a call with Richard. First, he listened to my concerns and feelings then individually took each negative emotion I was experiencing through processes that I was able to release them. After our call I felt so much relief, hope, and gratitude for life. I had been suffering from those extreme emotions for several days and by the end of our phone call I felt like the sun had come out of the clouds and all was well in my world again.

I couldn’t believe the transformation I had just experienced. The rest of my day was 110% better than before. I was able to move forward from that point. I am so grateful to have Richard as my coach.

What Richard does is powerful stuff. He took me from an outwardly confident person to an inwardly confident person which makes me more genuine and authentic.

My business saw 600% growth in the time I have been working with him.

Everyone, everyone, needs a Richard in their lives.

Richard creates a positive, trust-filled safe space in which his clients can explore deeply.

He has coached me for six months on various aspects of my life and adapted and responded to my changing needs with ease throughout this time. Richard asks powerful, thought-provoking questions that have deeply challenged some of my old belief systems and freed me to be with myself and others in profound new ways.

I am grateful to Richard for the space he has created for me to evolve!​

Richard is an exceptional coach!

With a genuine passion for people, he intuitively knows how to connect to the heart of the client.

In a calm yet purposeful way, Richard’s coaching space not only inspires direction, it propels movement beyond any expectation.

A heartfelt thank you.

Richard is a master of his craft. Richard really inspired me to be a better coach and a better person. If you are feeling stuck, not clear on your goals, feeling overwhelmed, and trying to figure out what’s holding you back – then suggest connecting with Richard. Richard helped me with removing any blockages, limiting beliefs, and really light up the knowledge within me. I feel propelled into my future and knowing I can tap into my unconscious mind to manifest my goals and dreams.

Richard knows what he is doing. You really want him on your corner as a coach.

Richard’s coaching style is unique – he has provided me with space to discover my potential through empowering me to explore all options. His approach has been respectful, calming, encouraging and playful, each appropriately determined by our conversation and discoveries. Richard seems to instinctively know what support or space I need, how to assist me to identify and acknowledge my successes, and when to push me to explore just that little bit further.

Working with him has increased my self confidence, enabling me to expand my horizons and to quiet my voices of doubt.

I would recommend Richard as a coach to anyone who wants to identify their life purpose and reach for the stars.

Richard Haynes. Or as I sometimes refer to him, the wizard, is an amazing Coach. What I have learned, is that it is true, when people say “coaching is not for me”. Because they have yet to learn their potential of what they can be. Also these people do not know, what they do not know. Coaching with Richard has helped me excel with life. We focused on my business but the benefits of working with him were noticeable in every area of my daily life.

Over the past 2 years of coaching with Richard, I have been able to take my business from a place of minor growth (about 5% per year) to growing at a rate of 55% each year, over the last two years.

Most of this growth I can attribute to working with Richard. He didn’t tell me any “trade secrets” or at least none that I know of (for some reason I can vaguely recall a hypnosis session). What I did learn is that I had the focus and drive that I wanted to have. I just didn’t know how to unlock it, and that’s what Richard is amazing at. There are too many tools to list that Richard uses, it is something you truly have to experience yourself.

I would highly recommend Richard Haynes of Empower Potential Coaching to people who want to do more and take themselves to the next level.

I’ve had the privilege of having Richard as my coach for a while now. And I continue to have him as my coach because he is always offering me the gift of a space where I feel safe, open, trusting, cared for and supported.

But by far the greatest gift and an incredible skill that Richard has, is his ability to sense into what I need.

Many times I have been outside of my comfort zone. He felt that and he also knew that I wanted to go beyond it. I might have not had the courage to do it on my own but he knew that I wanted to reach beyond it. So he offered me his hand, help and support to cross that line. Every time I did it (and it’s been a few), I benefited immensely. Even if the change was for my own highest good, I was still scared to embrace it. Richard can see it, feel it and know it and he has challenged me every time to go beyond that comfort zone, fully knowing that it was where I wanted to go. It’s an incredible gift and skill to see in your clients what many times, they cannot see in themselves. So I fully endorse Richard as a gifted, dedicated and supportive coach. Your life is guaranteed to change for the better by working with him. I know mine has.

I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude to you for helping me release some difficult and sticky emotions. I can really feel it now – this emotional baggage was affecting my decisions and it was causing my energy to lower. I was getting out of alignment by carrying so much extra weight. I had the right coping skills, but it just wasn’t quite enough. It is nice to have a goals and action items in mind to keep me on the right path.

For me I feel like I just woke up, a weight has been lifted, and I feel happy & balanced.

Thank you ever so much.

Richard creates space for me to better see myself. He uses questions and carefully applied feedback to encourage my own sense of accountability. Throughout coaching with Richard, I can feel that his agenda is single-minded for me and my growth. The experience is best summarized as accountability with ease.

I looked forward to my coaching session with Richard each week. He has a kind, gentle way that allowed me to feel supported and safely explore my “inner world” without judgement. The greatest gift of Richards coaching has revealed itself in the time since our coaching sessions ended… his gift was to help me realise my gifts and I’ve held onto that sense of calm, feeling confident that I carry these treasures with me and can call on them when needed. It so happens that I’ve made little progess with my goals in the month since our coaching sessions (life had other plans for this past month) however, I don’t feel like momentum has been lost. Rather than feel anxious about this like I would have been before, it feels like this hiatus is part of the plan, I’m allowing life to organically flow. I’m grateful to Richard for helping me find this shift in perspective.
