Sober Coaching - Why I do it

I know what it feels like to have control over everything - except alcohol.
For years, drinking was just a bit of fun. Then I became a dad. Suddenly, it wasn’t harmless anymore. It was stealing moments, stealing patience, stealing presence.
When my kids were 8 and 6, I stopped. My only regret is that I didn’t do it sooner.
Now I help other dads, men juggling careers, fitness goals, and family - break free from that same cycle.
I don’t preach. I don’t do hype or hollow promises. I offer practical tools, honest guidance, and support so you can show up fully for yourself and the people who look up to you.

I’m Adam, a certified coach with a 25 year corporate career leading marketing teams and businesses. I’ve lived and worked in London, Sydney, Singapore and Madrid, but these days I’m happily settled in Staffordshire with my wife and two young children.

It was my kids who were my inspiration to quit alcohol back in 2022. Becoming a dad changed everything for me - I wanted to be fully present, not just physically there. Giving up drinking is something I am proud of, and my only regret is not doing it sooner.

I’m passionate about health and wellness, I train regularly and have competed in CrossFit events and other functional fitness competitions. Quitting alcohol was the final piece of the puzzle - it unlocked another level of clarity, energy and balance in my life.

Through Hemming Coaching, I help other dads and high‑achieving men take back control of alcohol without relying on willpower alone. Together we create a clear vision for your future and build the tools and habits to make it real—so you can show up fully for yourself and the people who matter most.
