Ben Robins

Life and Executive Coach

Ben Robins believes the traits that build exceptional careers: relentless drive, impossible standards, and constant proving, are often the same ones preventing the life people actually want. As a life and executive coach and keynote speaker, he knows the pattern firsthand.
 
After over a decade in leadership, including running EMEA for a global consultancy with clients such as Google and Meta, Ben realised he was making decisions that looked right externally but felt misaligned in practice. That tension revealed something he now sees consistently in the people he works with: the limitation isn't capability or discipline. It's what high achievers believe they need to succeed, and it's costing them the life they actually want.
 
That insight defines his approach. Ben starts by removing rather than adding. Where most coaching piles on frameworks and tactics, he identifies what's actually in the way and clears it first. Once that's cleared, clients can see what's actually possible and build intentionally towards it.
 
His clients include startup founders repairing marriages they nearly lost to work, senior executives playing at even bigger levels, and professionals who thought they needed to tear it all down and start again, but got clear on what they actually wanted and built lives they love.
 
Ben works with clients across London, Dubai, Singapore, and the US, people ready to create extraordinary lives without sacrificing their ambition.
