Case Studies and Testimonials

Case Study One - The Marilyn Comrie Story

Marilyn Comrie of www.leadergen.com spent her formative years as a young black girl living in a poor part of town where most of the people she knew were either members of gangs, or gang leaders, engaging in constant conflict and stress.

At school she was brighter than most but played dumb to avoid attention. Later on she took up a career in television and after 17 years in the business found herself making documentaries.

Her work involved long hours and left little time for family life. As a result Marilyn sought the advice of a career development consultant, and ultimately decided to move into Lifestyle Coaching.

She went into business with partners which heralded a period of enormous change in her life. Marilyn’s talent for making things happen showed her that there are often better ways of doing things. However, her business partners resisted change and eventually the coaching business collapsed leaving Marilyn carrying the major part of the debt.

That was when she began to look into herself for the answers to why things hadn’t worked out as she planned, and with the guidance of Paul began working with her inner self-beliefs. Just a few months later she changed her life around completely after discovering how her early upbringing had created self-defeating patterns of behaviour.

PEP-SYSTEMS helped her to replace these patterns of behaviour with new ones that have helped her achieve incredible success on her own terms. She now runs her own business coaching company associated with Corporate Governance and has contracts pending with major businesses in India and other Asian countries.

Marilyn is also now a member of a British Government Committee which brings her to a hair's breadth of realising of being Britain’s answer to Condoleezza Rice. She is also running a workshop for Afro-Caribbean women starting their own businesses which incorporates much of Paul's PEP-SYSTEMS.

“Paul is a coach with phenomenal insight and powers who has helped me to achieve unbelievable success by unlocking my own inner wisdom. He is a gifted professional who has coached me through the start up, development and growth of my company, providing a safe & confidential sounding board to test my ideas and thinking. My self-confidence and ability as a great business leader and entrepreneur has grown. As a result my company has surpassed its first year target of £300k turnover, and is about to sign its first £3million deal.

My life has changed beyond recognition, and every day is filled with joy and satisfaction. My worries are all behind me and the future is glorious – thanks to Paul. Without his encouragement and support I could never have done it.”

Case Study Two - Trudy, Arthiritis Sufferer

Trudy was very depressed and fed up with her life, which was dominated by her relatives with whom she shared a room in a house full of constant arguing and noise.

The family took advantage of her, and used her as a general peacemaker and errand-runner in spite of the fact that that she had many problems of her own resulting from childhood abuse. She was also recovering very slowly from a series of four operations on both hips which caused great difficulty in walking a forced her to use crutches. Additionally she had great difficulty in sleeping, and felt she was not allowed to have a life of her own.

She arrived for her first appointment on crutches and could barely get through the door. After the first therapy session she discovered how to change her Victim mind-set of being unable to walk, to the Master mind-set of overcoming past issues and she left opening the door with her crutches over her arm.

The following session she arrived by public transport and continued to work on changing her self-beliefs.
By her third appointment she attended without crutches and had been previously walking around town on her own for over an hour.

Before the end of the fourth session, she had decided to change her life to the one she wanted, and chose to take up the 12 week workshop offer to achieve her independence and dreams.

The last time I heard from her she starting a new relationship and really was living the life the way she wanted to.

Note: The folowing testimonial was written after completion of just part one of the workshop.

"Dear Paul,

My name is Trudy and I am 54 years of age, for the past six years, my mobility has not been so good through Arthritis and I have endured 4 operations in the past 2 years.

Back in September I felt like crap, always tired aggressive and very emotional and I kept having these dreams whereupon I am asleep but awake and aware of my surroundings. 4 in a week made me concerned that something was not right, and at this point I contacted you.

After just 2 sessions I could not believe the change in me. I am calmer, more confident and the aggression, depression and emotional turmoil has disappeared. I feel that I have been on a washing cycle of life and have reached the final rinse and have come out all fresh and ready to begin a new life. Thank you Paul for making me feel on top of the world.

Trudy"

Case Study Three - Paul Richardson

Paul experienced the usual upbringing of the many children during 1940 years with shortages due to the war and things were hard for his family, with many restrictions.

He married and had a family, but after 29 years the relationship failed and his lack of self-worth deteriorated further when he became redundant in 1994 at the age of 54.

Living alone with two mortgages, his early retirement pension was not sufficient to sustain his outgoings. So like many others he decided to start his own business and followed the advice of ‘the experts’ and did as he was told even if it meant doing things he did not like doing.

The redundancy money ran out, his health began to fail and his self-worth plummeted still further, which affected him in the worst way possible.

It was at this time he found his biggest opportunity ever; he had always done as others had told him he believed and always followed the 'experts', but he now realised that he had ignored the expert that knew what was best for him. Himself.

With this new understanding he explored his inner self and discovered his own principles of success which he adopted and then applied to other people's issues and problems. He was soon helping dozens of people who all thanked him and moved on leaving him still with serious cash flow problems and other personal issues to deal with.

This was when he took his research seriously and started to apply it to himself and thus the seed of PEP-SYSTEMS was sown. Paul used his personal research and development to enable others to avoid the same misery and self-doubt he had experienced.

He is now the Managing Director of ‘Vision Coaching and Development Ltd.’ and has launched his own powerful and highly adaptable Personal Empowerment Program, that during its first month was adopted by the Warrington and Cheshire Business Link for their Business Start Up Program for Afro-Caribbean Women

"If I had not discovered my own inner truth I would never have dared to even think my dreams could come true, let alone surpass them. I feel alive and confident such as I have never experienced. If I can come back from the very brink of throwing in the towel, then what can you achieve? Now I am doing what I want by facilitating and teaching, working is like a holiday I just enjoy it so much.”
