"What an incredible journey ! When I started coaching with Daniel Merza on 28 November 2018, I weighed 133.3kg. Within a short space of time, I lost 18kg, weighing 115.2kg, as at 25 April 2019. The drop in size has even been felt when wearing my clothes. For example, I put on my pair of jeans without a belt, they slip, which previously didn’t happen. I received so many benefits from being personally coaching by Daniel.
Here are a few examples:
Daniel’s coaching style was extremely empowering and enabled me to break free of the things that were holding me back from a long time. Procrastination was one of them, as well as the little voice inside my head that tries to break me down and attempts to make me feel not worthy or good enough - and succeeded quite well in the past. There were so many little things that Daniel said over the course of the journey that still ring loud in my ear till now. I would highly recommend Daniel Merza as a coach, as he is dedicated to understanding the underlying issues and what is holding you back. He will then help set the mind for success and help you find ways to achieve your goals, whatever they may be. There are no limits as all things are possible with Daniel as coach."
Mario, 31, Business Owner
“Coaching with Daniel has helped me to take a step back from the busy-ness of work and life and take the time to reflect on myself and what makes me happy. He reminded me that I am not defined by my occupation and that I should be living my life with purpose and not on auto-pilot. Throughout my time with Daniel, he has helped me reflect on my fears in particularly my self-doubt and self-confidence issues which often led me to be afraid of change & getting outside of my comfort zone. He helped me to realise that fear is just an emotion that I am in control of and has helped me work through this to be able to gain more confidence and take risks outside of my comfort zone. As a result of the coaching I received from Daniel, I have been able to gain more self confidence to apply for new jobs and go to interviews feeling confident and also allowed me to volunteering at Church and also attend networking events which I was previously afraid to do. I felt that Daniel's style was one of guidance, he would often ask what appeared to simple questions but always ended up delving deep into self reflection. He never pushed his ideas onto me and I always felt that he provided a safe space where I could speak openly and honestly without judgment. I believe this helped me to achieve the self confidence I now feel! If you're feeling a little lost, lacking in self confidence, and in need of some guidance as you navigate through the complexities of everyday life, I would highly recommend getting in contact with Daniel! Whatever you’re needing, I strongly believe Daniel will be able to help you along your journey.

"I found all sessions with Daniel to be very engaging and relevant. Through Daniel's recommendations, I overcame my personal struggle of striving to perfect and focused more on time management as well as the completion of tasks at hand. My ability to reach personal goals through listing priorities in categories as recommended resulted in the completion of more tasks in less time. Becoming more punctual was also the result of Daniel's recommendations and techniques. Learning to be self sufficient and more independent was also achieved through Daniel's technique of blocking time. The sessions were beneficial in that they were sequential and feedback was constructive. Record of all pain points as a coachee were noted by Daniel and followed up in proceeding coaching sessions. This increased my motivation to both reflect, improve and achieve goals. Daniel is motivating but firm. He focuses on areas that require improvement and gives feedback. I would recommend Daniel as a coach because he puts himself in the position of the coachee and has the ability to always give valid insights and simple techniques to achieve personal goals.
Debbie, 22, Corporate Professional
"Wow what a journey it has been. I never knew why people had a life coach nor the benefits until being coached by Daniel. I started with a goal that I have been procrastinating on for a few years now and before the coaching sessions, I never had anything or anyone that encouraged me and taught me to motivate myself and persist until I reached it . My goal was more of a lifestyle change and with Daniel’s guidance, techniques and tools, I found the strength in myself to tackle all the obstacles in my way and lose the weight I had set out to lose , and make the changes in my life that I have been longing to make for what seems like forever. Daniel listened to all my fears and challenges and encouraged me every step of the way. He didn’t tell me what I should or shouldn’t be doing, rather he made me practice self awareness and figure this out by just pausing and thinking about the consequences of my actions. He taught me the importance of planning and following through. Having a coach to guide and support me to reach my goal was an opportunity of a lifetime. Without the skills I was taught, the encouraging words when I was at my lowest and all the techniques that showed me how to be self aware and self motivated, I wouldn’t have changed my life in the way which I have done in such a short time . I’m grateful and extremely thankful for the care, encouragement and support which Daniel gave me throughout the sessions. I will be recommending Daniel to my family, friends and colleagues, as I truly believe if he can help me, he can help anyone that has a goal and needs motivation and guidance to achieve this."

“My journey with Daniel started with wanting to improve my professional life and my outlook on my career but within the first couple of sessions, Daniel helped me discover that what I really needed was much deeper. I soon learned that I needed to know more about myself and who I am. I came on a journey of self-discovery, to find out who I am, who I can be and what is possible for me. As we progressed through the sessions, I learned new things about myself and who I have always been. Session by session, I became more self-aware, I discovered my strengths and accepted my flaws and weaknesses. Daniel made me feel comfortable to share my thoughts and feelings with him and to easily say what is on my mind and dig deep within myself. Daniel was patient and understanding. His advice and knowledge put things into perspective. Daniel’s questions made me think and reflect. They were very thoughtful and to the point. He helped me put together the pieces of my personality and character. I know I am now equipped with good tools to help me live my life with mindfulness and confidence. I feel very fortunate that I had the opportunity to be coached by such an understanding coach. I will be recommending Daniel to my friends and family. I am confident they will benefit greatly from his guidance and support.”

- Daniel helped me stay focused and achieve my goals
- Daniel empowered me to strive for beyond what I thought was possible - and achieve - which I did.
- In my mind, I always knew that losing weight was something that I had to do, but the issue for me, was when and how I was going to start, an issue that lingered for 12 - 18 months. When Daniel came along, it was just what the doctor ordered.
- I feel so much more energetic, confident, optimistic and mentally stronger.
