About Act 2

The technical stuff first:

I’m a Certified Financial Coach Practitioner. I could explain exactly what that means, but only if you’re curious. Just drop me a line and I’ll happily tell you more. Thinking about it, if you click the orange button at the foot of the page you’ll be taken to the Code of Ethics I adhere to.

Before this, I spent over 30 years leading business units and international teams. Along the way, I developed a deep passion for coaching; helping people grow, overcome challenges, and achieve things they didn’t think were possible.

What I believe in:

I believe financial clarity is life changing. It’s not just about numbers, it’s about freedom, confidence, and peace of mind.

My approach is grounded in empathy, honesty, and practicality. I meet you where you are, without judgment, and help you move toward where you want to be. I’ll never overwhelm you with jargon or push you into decisions. Instead, I’ll guide you with clear, thoughtful advice that fits your life.

This work isn’t just professional for me, it’s personal. I care deeply about helping people feel more secure, more hopeful, and more in control of their future.

And now, the real-life stuff:

I’m a dad to two grown-up sons, each carving out their own path in life. I also share my days with Daphne, a dog who definitely keeps me on my toes. I play football, walk a lot, travel when I can, and always have a book on the go.

I’ve personally navigated a few of life’s big transitions and made them work for me. I know how hard it can be to imagine change, let alone take the first step. But that feeling when you do? It’s powerful, and I’d love to help you get there too.

I almost forgot…my name is Dave Turner. It’s good to see you here.

Could you work with me? 

This is a critical for you to decide. Taking the step to go with financial coaching is a great start but it is massively important that you find the right person to work with. Here’s the thing...it might not be me, although I hope it is. 

I’m a trained financial coach and have both life experience and technical skills to support you in achieving what you want to achieve. I am a skilled listener, able to identify, from what you are saying, the things that are important and relevant to you.....and work with you to address them. All of this is done without judgment and with complete confidentiality. I have a good knowledge of personal finance and things that may be able to help you, with a range of tools we can use depending upon your personal situation. 

I will only do what serves you, not me. Financial coaching obviously comes with a financial outlay, though the value to individuals can be immense – sometimes immeasurable. Ethically it is unacceptable for me to extend the relationship beyond what gives you the optimum result. (Click the orange badge at the bottom of the page to see the Code of Ethics I adhere to.)

Still not sure? Well, there is the option for you to book a free 15-minute consultation call with me.....you can find out more about the process, what you might achieve and whether you feel you can work with me. What’s to lose?
