The Loving Candour of Mentorship in My Life & Career

Updated: Mar 15, 2023

Over the last 8 years, I've been mentored and coached by Sukh and Warren at Lighthouse. Through their support, I can confidently say that the work I've done with them has been the biggest driver of change in my life, ever. They've accompanied me through the highs and lows - providing love, wisdom and candour through the toughest moments.


Thanks to that support I was able to rise to be the youngest Country Director ever in my (then) organisation's history; I was able to exit a long-term relationship in a way that I could be proud of (that enabled my ex-partner and I to retain a healthy relationship with each other) - and then build a new relationship that really reflected my deepest values, ultimately leading to marriage and becoming a father; and I was supported to make a major life transition - out of the corporate world and into a vocation that I feel called to, in the process building a life that better reflects the vision I have for my life.


I would wholeheartedly recommend working with Lighthouse Global - for anyone who is willing to do what it takes to improve their life for the better and become more of the person you are capable of being. The work is not easy, and the commitment to candour means you'll often receive what you need to be told, not necessarily what you want to hear! But I found that with that candour comes care and consideration, and a real sense that I was never alone, even when the times were most difficult.

Thank you Joel for sharing your experience of mentorship with Sukh and Warren and how it has helped you grow in all areas of your life. I value your openness about the challenging times as well as the good times. Sometimes we need to hear the candour in order to achieve the goals we have set for ourselves. It can feel hard in the moment, but ultimately it comes from a loving place.

Joel, we have known each other for a very long time and from the time we have, I never expected what was to come. To see you thrive, show incredible courage and maturity through continual challenges - at home, at work and now in your growing business - is humbling and inspiring. Thank you so much x

Thank you so much for sharing Joel and how Lighthouse has helped so many parts of your life over years, through all those changes and into better and better things. This is exactly what people need to know about the unwavering support at Lighthouse, when there is candour, its because we value the highest ideal for that person. All too often we end up turning away from good things in our lives because it's not easy or because we get out expectations wrong. But having someone say it straight to us sometimes is what we need to be able to make our next step with more confidence. Wonderful to hear, thank you again.
