Building and Boosting: Starting Strong

Join your host Sharon Lawton for another Coaching Conversation with Tesse Akpeki FCG, TEDx Panelist, Governance Champion, Fellow Association for Coaching and Coaching Academy certified coach, and Harvard Business Review Advisory Council member.

To start our 2026 coaching conversations Sharon invites Tesse to talk about Building and Boosting: Starting Strong.


At the beginning of each year, we make new year resolutions. By the end of January we’ve started to cool down on our intentions. Building and boosting is a framework Tesse designed to set herself up to succeed. Its an approach she has used successfully with over one thousand coaches and organisations.


Tesse advocates that instead of beating ourselves up for not being on top of our new year’s resolutions we fail forward and reward ourselves for being courageous, stepping up and stepping out. We begin to understand the reasons for not staying with our commitments and choosing a different response instead.


In this coaching conversation, you will learn

  • How to design and implement a personalised action plan for success .
  • Self-compassion. Self-awareness and ways of Looking back to Learn Forward 
  • Celebrating for Success to inspire sustainability , repair, restoration, reawakening and healing.


In this session Tesse will share why so many resolutions are broken so quickly. She will suggest ways of creating and sustaining favourable conditions for nurturing, protection and soothing.


You will hear about an invaluable tool which you can use straight away: The Reverse Bucket List AND embrace Failure as a first attempt in understanding, self-love, acceptance and self-compassion.
