04/02/20 • 30 min
This podcast is a must for anyone interested in human performance, sport and emotional intelligence.
After spending eight years as a Professional Footballer, including for Premier League clubs such as West Ham United and Charlton Athletic FC Kevin took to life on screen.
Taking part in films, programmes and commercials across the globe and during this time he body doubled and worked alongside Cristiano Ronaldo, Thierry Henry and John Abrahams. Being close to the talent, Kevin used this time to pick their brains and observe their behaviour.
Kevin developed a passion for understanding how human beings performed in different spaces and helping them to change where requested. This led to him studying Neuro-Linguistic Programming and qualifying as a Psychotherapist.
His innovative programs have led to him being requested as a speaker for international broadcasters on all things mental health, writer for the British Council’s global education magazine and partner on international projects, deliver behaviour therapy and counselling in schools, facilitate emotional literacy in Prison, project management for England's biggest children's mental health charity Place2Be and the creation of his Soccology programme that he has successfully delivered across the Premier League and English Football League. The success of the Soccology programme inspired Kevin to write his Amazon number one best selling book Soccology!
