MY STORY
Hi, I’m Andrew Sillitoe. I’m a business owner, husband, father of three, and former international athlete and coach, and my life’s mission is to help you live an optimal life.
My inspiration for this blog came from my own hard-learned lessons and watching my father, a successful businessman who made a lot of money and by all accounts was doing great.
My father did everything to ensure he was successful, but he also neglected his relationships, health, and mental wellbeing.
The combination of the 1990 property crash and the way he lived took a toll on him, and one day he suffered a sudden heart attack and died… at the age of 48.
When I lost him, I swore that my life would be different, that I wouldn’t make the same mistakes, but like many business leaders, I found myself consumed by my work and neglected my health, wellbeing and relationship with my wife and family.
I would head home after a hard day at work, skip the gym (again) and open a bottle of wine, which felt like the only thing I had in common with my wife.
I’d glance in the mirror, hate what I saw staring back at me, then go to bed, only to repeat that same cycle the next day as my days blended into one.
I was obsessed with growing my business, convinced that I was working so hard for the family’s good, but I didn’t see how bad my health, relationships, and mood were becoming.
I was highly stressed, snapping at people for no reason, and couldn’t seem to switch off. Not to mention my marriage had broken down as my wife and I barely spoke.
Finally, it all came to a head in 2017 when my wife left me.
I was devastated, but looking back, it was the best thing that could have happened to me as it started me on my journey of self-discovery. It made me take a long hard look at myself, and I realised that I’d been focussing on the wrong thing all this time.
Instead of purely focussing on business, I should have been making time for my body, mindset and relationships, which would leave me better prepared to handle my business.
I began to put this process to work; I completely transformed my life.
I became happier than I’d been in years. I was eating healthily, training regularly, and I looked as good 44 as I did when I played professional hockey. And as all of these changes took place, I even reconciled with my wife.

TAKE BACK CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE
She saw the difference in me and was amazed at who I had become and it was then that I had the realisation that there would be other people out there, just like me, that needed a way to bring their life back into balance, giving them everything they’d ever wanted without having to sacrifice their business.
They needed a way to reset, and before a heart attack or divorce made them do it.
The traditional image we see of over-worked, highly-stressed, out of shape business leaders doesn’t have to be the reality and I knew that if I could find a way to get this idea out to the masses it could create real change. Which is exactly what I’ve done.
Since 2017 I’ve taught my system to 1000’s of other men and helped them to transform their lives in the process. They’ve fixed their marriages, improved their physical and mental health and their careers are thriving as a result.
Now it’s your turn to see what it’s all about.
