Take control and live the life you want

REDSIGN YOUR LIFE FOR BALANCE AND FULFILLMENT

Welcome to the Three Piece Life

How to Balance Paid Work, Unpaid Work, and Simple Pleasures for a Life That Feels Whole.

 Are you thriving in your career but quietly burning out behind the scenes?
Many of us are. We’ve mastered the hustle, built the CV, and hit the targets—but somewhere along the way, we’ve lost our balance. Life feels like an endless loop of meetings, emails, and obligations, with little time left for the people and passions that matter most.

The Three Piece Life offers a different way forward.

Tim Johns, your honest, insightful, and often gently humorous guide, introduces a practical and personal model for restoring balance:

  • Paid Work – your career, income, and professional identity

  • Unpaid Work – caregiving, volunteering, mentoring, and contribution

  • Simple Pleasures – the joy-giving pursuits that make life rich and real

It isn’t about quitting your job or escaping to a cabin in the woods. It’s about choosing with intention. It's about rethinking what “success” means - and aligning your time with your values.

You’ll discover:

  • How to recognise the early signs of burnout - and what to do about them

  • Why traditional “work/life balance” is broken - and what to try instead

  • Exercises and tools to help you reflect, reprioritise, and rebuild

  • How to use the “Three Piece” model to adapt across life stages

  • Real-life stories and lessons from someone who’s walked the same road

Whether you’re mid-career and craving more meaning, nearing a transition, or simply ready to take stock of your life, The Three Piece Life will help you make changes - without blowing everything up.

You only get one go at this Life. So Make it count.

You can sign up straight away here. And, of course, you can book time with me to talk about your specific coaching, communications, and counselling needs.

Coaching for Change

I’m not here to hand out instructions — I’m here to hold up the mirror. As an executive coach, my job is to help you see yourself more clearly. Just like a tennis coach refines your serve or a golf coach sharpens your swing, I spot the patterns you can’t always see. Coaching isn’t therapy. It isn’t mentoring. It’s about guiding, questioning, and reflecting — not prescribing or diagnosing.

“This is not a rehearsal. This is the Show". Life is too short to postpone important choices.

ADVICE & COUNSELLING COMMUNICATIONS & STRATEGY

I’m an experienced communications counsellor, coach, and strategic advisor. When the stakes are high and change is on the horizon, I’m the partner you want by your side. For leaders who need more than traditional coaching, I provide clear perspective, challenge, and direction — acting as both guide and trusted confidant.

Reframe – I bring clarity, cutting through complexity to reveal fresh perspectives.
Rethink – I challenge assumptions, opening up new strategic options.
Reconsider – I help you weigh choices, set direction, and commit to decisive action.

With a career spanning communications, consultancy, and coaching, I offer more than reflection — I deliver actionable insights and a roadmap forward. Whether it’s navigating organisational change, shaping your career, or balancing competing demands, you’ll leave with clarity, confidence, and momentum.

A journey of self-discovery

This seven-part Coaching programme will allow you to find your own solution by working through recorded modules in your own time and at your own pace. In each module, I talk you through ideas and shares my own story and insights. There will be things for you to write down and questionnaires to answer. Because it’s only when we write things down that things become real.

The Three Piece Life coaching philosophy will give you:

New ways of thinking

New sense of possibilities

The permission to make personal change
