Mark Franklin is a former corporate executive turned personal development coach whose path has been shaped by creativity, crisis, and transformation.
Growing up as an only child, he channeled his imagination into art and drumming, eventually performing in West End shows including The Lion King, before settling into what he thought would be a "proper career" in business.
His 22-year corporate journey led him to become Managing Director of a sales division, where he discovered his gift for helping others grow. But the combined pressures of Brexit, pandemic-era business challenges, and the sudden loss of his best friend in 2021 triggered a mental health crisis that forced him to reevaluate everything.
After seeking help through cognitive behavioral therapy and taking time to heal, Mark realized his true calling lay in helping others overcome what he calls the "four fears" - not being ready, not feeling good enough, not having enough time, and fear of failure. His family celebrated "getting their Mark back" when he finally left corporate life behind.
Today, he measures success not in financial terms but in the freedom to help others write better stories for their families, combining his storytelling background with personal development to transform hesitations into strengths.
