What can coaches and leaders learn from the people who have mastered the art of appearing on stage and screen? And what can coaching give back to the creative industries?
Answering these questions through his work at the intersection of coaching, corporate leadership and on-screen presentation skills is Gareth Davies, renowned executive television producer of shows like Strictly Come Dancing and Top of the Pops, who is now one of the industry’s leading presenter coaches.
Gareth co-founded The Presenter Studio with fellow executive producer Leon Campbell in 2013, and since then the company has honed and nurtured talent at every level of the TV and film industry, working with the likes of Hugh Grant and Madonna, all the way through to aspiring actors and presenters just starting their careers.
In this episode of The Coach’s Journey Podcast, Gareth shares insights from a glamorous world that he believes has everything to gain from a coaching approach, and he reflects on what it takes to help people embody their authentic selves and communicate to audiences of all sizes.
With media skills being something every business needs in an era dominated by screens, Gareth works with corporate businesses to help them find their voice, and he can still be found practising what he preaches in his ongoing work as a presenter and public speaker.
Gareth and episode host Alex Swallow also talk about:
How to identify the aspects of your personality that reflect who you are in a relatable, interesting way
The concept of hustle and the benefits of going the long way round
How to leverage the power of Instagram to build your audience and grow your business
Presentation skills, tips and approaches that can help you communicate with authenticity and impact
Gareth reveals the huge gaps that exist in creative industries, highlighting the opportunities there are for coaches to help nurture skills and develop talent.

What does it really look like to take your coaching practice on the road?
In this short episode, Robbie and Alex Swallow get together to explore the possibilities and challenges of coaching as a digital nomad — or simply working remotely and flexibly as a coach.
They talk about their experience working from Costa Rica, Dar es Salaam, cafés in the UK, and the practical and emotional realities of taking coaching work on the move. This conversation is filled with candid reflections, personal stories, and valuable tips for coaches curious about location-independent work.
Together, Robbie and Alex discuss:
What it’s really like to coach while travelling
The difference between remote work and being on holiday
The impact of environment on coaching conversations
Energy management, internet mishaps, and time zone headaches
Why solo digital nomad life might not be as dreamy as it sounds
The power of experiments — like working from a different UK city — to test what works
How being in new places can boost creativity and reflection
If you're a coach who’s ever dreamed of working remotely, coaching from anywhere, or building a location-independent coaching business, this episode offers encouragement, perspective, and a few gentle warnings…
