ABOUT US

Our Story

 Mental toughness coaching was created by Maria Fenton Smith who is a NLP Certified Practitioner, Parenting  and Communication Coach and an Independent Social Worker. Maria is also founder of UK Home Care Directory and mum to 5 beautiful children.

After years of studying human behaviour and investing over five figures into her own self-development journey, Maria found her true calling, helping others achieve transformative growth through mental toughness training.   Maria’s own personal struggles and determination to overcoming obstacles inspired the creation of this unique coaching platform.  Maria believes that true power in taking control of your life and maintaining healthy relationships lies in understanding why, as humans we behave the way we do.

Maria believes that mindset coaching is more than motivation and a Coach telling you want to do or telling you to take action, it’s understanding exactly why you behave the way you do and how to shift behaviours that limit you. Maria’s coaching deep dives beyond surface level mindset coaching so you can make shifts in your behaviour and get in control of your life and how you show up for you and your loved ones.  Maria has designed different training to suit a range of needs but the fundamentals for change are in understanding human behaviour.  Maria has a super talent for taking information and simplifying it into accessible for all, achievable training, so no previous training is required to access her material. 

Maria is an NLP Certified Partitioner which means she is licensed to provide certain therapies, including Time Line Therapy to support with a range of barriers and behaviours keeping you currently stuck and struggling to maintain relationships.

Maria’s Mission

Maria’s mission is to make premium coaching accessible to everyone, regardless of their financial situation. She identified a gap in the market, where top-tier coaching was often out of reach for many. With a passion for impacting all her clients lives positively as her driving force, Maria built a space where you can invest in your personal growth without breaking the bank.

But affordability is just the start. What sets Maria’s coaching apart is her unwavering commitment to delivering real, tangible results. Drawing from her deep understanding of psychology and communication she equips clients with the tools to confront their barriers and limiting beliefs head-on, cultivating the resilience and consistency needed for lasting change. 

Additionally, Maria’s own personal journey to leave the day job and move to working on her own passions daily was far from easy and there were many fails along the way.  However, Maria’s persistent and emotional resilience kept her going and now she wants to give you the direct route, minus her own mistakes to take you from frustrated in the day job to living your passion to make your living. Maria now has control of her time and day and this allows her soo much quality time with her family.  We can never reclaim our time back but we can decide today is the day to get in the driving seat of our lives.  Maria is excited to start working with you on your journey and teach you the tools and strategies that you will need to get in the driving seat of your life.

Join a community of like-minded individuals on a journey of self-mastery. Invest in yourself with coaching that is both financially accessible and proven to yield powerful outcomes. Your path to a stronger, more resilient mindset begins here.  Maria’s mental toughness coaching is your catalyst for transformation.

Coaching for Parents & Teens

Parenting teens can feel like navigating uncharted waters. Emotional outbursts, misunderstandings, and constant tension can leave parents feeling defeated and disconnected. Our coaching for parenting teens helps parents understand how to

  • Repair and strengthen the parent-teen bond connection

  • Ending reactive behaviours; understanding what triggers negative behaviours
  • Identifying your inner child, that shows up when triggered
  • Deep diving into empathy for yourself and partner
  • Communication (only 7% of your communication is verbal)
  • Repair and strengthening your relationship
