Nick Pereira had a promising career in the music industry, but a life-changing car crash ended those dreams. He used personal development to get through the dark days, and now shares his inspirational message with youths as a coach, speaker and trainer.
BECOMING A COACH
Coaching felt like a calling for Nick. Back when he owned a commerical cleaning company, he met Nicole Jansen from Discover the Edge (listen to Nicole’s interview, Episode #17!), and Nicole started teaching him. Under her guidance, he decided he wanted to impact lives by coaching as well.
He didn’t intend on working with youths when he began coaching, but some of his clients asked if he would coach their teenagers (and he discovered that he was very good with getting results from the youths!).
BIGGEST OBSTACLE
His biggest challenge was discovering his niche market. It was a process of discovery that led him to working with youths.
GETTING NEW COACHING CLIENTS
Nick’s public speaking helps him find clients to work with, and he recommends that other coaches explore speaking as a means to meet more people.
BEST COACHING RESOURCES
Facebook – Nick is a big user, and it allows him to connect to people in his target market (ie: schools, educational groups etc)
MOST IMPACTFUL BOOK
“The Law of Success” by Napoleon Hill
CURRENT COACHING PROJECT
Nick is launching a Youth Leadership Program, to empower youths (see Nick’s website for more info)
