The Tool Box Meetings

Are These Meetings For You?

The toolbox meetings are for you if…

You feel stuck in life.

You know something has to change, but feel too afraid to do it

You’ve lost your confidence.

You feel overwhelmed.

You can’t see the wood for the trees.

You feel stuck

You’ve hit a brick wall

You don’t know how to help them

or yourself

You feel disconnected

You are struggling, either physically or mentally

You know your strengths, but have forgotten where to look for them

You’re a good listener

You want to help

You need help

And you no longer want to do any of this alone. 

These meetings are probably not for you if:

You’re looking for therapy

You’re looking for a quick fix. 

You’re not ready to be honest and open with yourself or others

What to Expect 

At a glance: A weekly meeting personally facilitated by me, Brian.

We meet on Zoom for 90 minutes. Every week. For four months.

The groups are small, no more than eight, they are intimate, and confidential

Who The Meetings Are For?

People who are going through something hard.

People who are tired of struggling alone.

What happens at these meetings?

Each week, a different person will take the hot seat. It’s not as scary as it sounds; in fact, you will absolutely love it.

Together, as a group, we deep-dive into the struggles you’re facing and what’s standing in your way. We talk. We listen. We offer you tools. 

We figure stuff out. And together, we find a way forward.

Initial Commitment: Four months. 16 meetings. 90 minutes per meeting. Enough time to get to know you really well, and build real momentum.

To help you back on your feet. To help you feel strong enough to move forward. To give you tools that you’ll have for life.

How to Join: Look at the times and decide if Group A or Group B is for you. Click the link that says “tell me more” or “register interest”.

Fill in the short questionnaire, and press send. I will read it and get back to you via email to discuss if these meetings would be a good fit for you.

About Brian Deacle

Who Is Brian?

I was tempted to make a Monty Python joke, but I’ll save that for when we meet in person. For now, hello, I’m Brian…

I’m a 63-year-old husband, father, and tradesman who’s been a plumber, cafe owner, builder, project manager, YouTuber, and podcaster.

I moved my family from the UK to New Zealand, started and sold businesses, built a house on impossible land, and held my wife’s hand through the most devastating grief.

Throughout my life, I’ve learned that mental strength isn’t about being tough; it’s about staying steady.

I’m not a therapist or a guru, but I’ve been through enough to know that you don’t have to struggle alone.
And now, I want to share that wisdom with you.

There’s always a way through, but the way is much easier when you have someone to hand you the tools.

You don’t have to walk alone.

I look forward to getting to know you and hopefully being that person for you.

FAQ

My Commitment to You

Still can’t decide? I understand, it’s a big investment. 

Here’s my Commitment to You

I’m a tradie. I’ve spent my life fixing things: pipes, houses, businesses, relationships.

And I’ve learned that you can’t fix what you don’t understand.

So here’s my commitment to you:

I will understand you.

Not just your problem. You. Who you are. What you’ve been through. What you bring with life.

I will give you practical tools.

No fluff. Just honest, practical wisdom that you can actually use.

I will create a safe space.

A place where you can be honest without judgment. A place where you can talk and be heard. Where you can fall apart and know you’ll be caught.

I will hold you accountable.

Gently, kindly and honestly. Because change can’t happen without someone who cares enough to give you a nudge forward. 

And I will not give up on you.

Not ever. Even when you want to give up on yourself.

That’s not just a promise. That’s who I am.
