Emil Swartling
Before working with Peter, I was hiding under layers of bullshit. In my head, I thought that asking for help was wrong and made me less of a man. On top of that, I rarely stayed committed to friends, relationships, or jobs. I had recently started a new role at Amazon, and I was struggling with communication.
In the first coaching program with Peter, he helped me paint a visual picture of what I wanted my life to look like, and then we made it happen through concrete, manageable steps. After only three months, my communication skills improved dramatically, I left a relationship that wasn’t working, upped my sales performance, and landed my dream side gig as a yoga teacher.
Then, I faced a new challenge—not running from the life I was building. Through weekly sessions, breath work, journaling, and meditation, along with a three-day intensive weekend with Peter, I learned how to stay committed to what I wanted to accomplish and appreciate the beauty of long-term personal development. Most importantly, my work with Peter has changed my perspective of what’s possible for my life. I moved in with my amazing girlfriend; I was promoted twice, and I’ve been able to make a second income as a yoga teacher.
Peter is more than a coach—he’s a friend, a mentor, a teacher, and a healer. He is there for me 24/7, sending me action plans after each session, and he has a great sense of humor, bringing lightness to what can be pretty heavy stuff. With his help, I found how to trust myself and turned myself from a boy with dreams to a man with a life I am proud of living.

When I met Emil, I was instantly drawn to him, but he was commitment-phobic. But as Emil worked with Peter, I saw immense changes and turning points: the point where we became partners, where he said I love you, and having open conversations about the future (moving in together, marriage, family, etc.). Emil has come to embody more in what I saw in him originally. Witnessing his growth and transformation to the man he is now has been so amazing and honestly awe-inspiring. I am so proud of who he is today – from his career, to his relationships, to our relationship, and for his continued curiosity to dive deep, adapt and learn more about himself.
He has unlocked his potential with Peter’s incredible support. I’m so grateful (and I know he is too) that he is in Emil’s corner. Peter has such a special craft to share!
