BPS Focus Session with Brett

One problem.
Thirty focused minutes.

Bring one idea, problem or decision. I will review what you send before we meet, then use the session to work towards clarity, practical options and clear next steps.

No payment now. Every request is reviewed before it is accepted.

30 minutes £30 if accepted 24 hours minimum notice

What to expect

The hour-long meeting you do not need.

Because you give me the context first, we can use the actual session for the work rather than spending half of it discovering why you are there.

Before your 30 minutesI review your completed request and any relevant material you have shared. This preparation is outside your paid session.
0–5 min

Confirm

Make sure we are solving the right problem and agree what a useful outcome looks like.

5–15 min

Unpack

Ask the questions that matter, challenge assumptions and identify the real sticking point.

15–25 min

Work it through

Explore the strongest practical options, direction or solution together.

25–30 min

Leave clear

Agree next steps, priorities and any final questions before the session ends.

Where I can help

Experience, not guesswork.

I only accept Focus Sessions in areas where I have meaningful practical experience. If your request is outside that scope, I will decline it rather than take your money.

  • Education, behaviour and pastoral leadership
  • Boarding and school leadership
  • Writing and developing a book
  • Self-publishing and Amazon KDP
  • AI-assisted writing and creative workflows
  • Simple website creation and digital setup
  • Digital products and creative product development
  • Developing an idea or creative project

Focus Sessions do not provide legal, medical, therapeutic, financial, tax or other regulated professional advice, and they are not advanced software-development consultancy.

Request a session

Give me the context first.

Every question is required because the point is to arrive prepared. Choose three possible times, all at least 24 hours away. They are requests only until BPS confirms one.

You & the focusStep 1 of 4

Start with you.

Who am I speaking with, and what area are we working in?

What are we solving?

One clearly defined problem, idea or decision gives us the best chance of using the 30 minutes well.

How should we do it?

Choose the format that works best for you. The session is still 30 focused minutes whichever format you choose.

Give me three possible times.

All three choices are required. Each must be at least 24 hours from now.

These are availability requests, not confirmed bookings. BPS will review the request and confirm one suitable time if the session is accepted.
