Timothy Barlow, Perspective Coach

My friends call me Timo.

For over 20 years, I’ve been helping individuals and organizations to create meaningful, lasting change. With more than 30 years of study in this field, I remain a dedicated and loyal student of the craft.

My coaching style is shaped by a lifelong curiosity in philosophy and film, as well as decades of learning from mentors, workshops, seminars, and books that challenge the way we think and live.

Apart from formal study, pursuits like golf, motorcycling, and tournament poker have been unexpected yet profound teachers, helping me sharpen my overall focus and develop much greater patience with myself and others.

Like many of us, my early years were spent seeking acceptance and answers from outside sources, but over time, that pursuit gave way to something far more meaningful: a genuine commitment to understanding myself and the world as it truly is, rather than just how I wanted it to be. Walking this somewhat unconventional path has given me a perspective rooted in experience and clarity rather than conformity, and it’s a perspective I bring to every client I work with.

This path hasn’t always been an easy one, but it was rich in depth, insight, and freedom. And, as my perspective shifted from judgment to understanding, genuine self-acceptance followed, which has been the cornerstone of my coaching.

Truth and understanding act as my compass, with kindness as my due north.

I don’t offer quick fixes or empty promises. I will, however, help point you in the direction of a more fulfilling life, one grounded in awareness, compassion, and honesty. From that new foundation of integrity, a more confident and authentic you will emerge.
