Member Bio
I’m an award-winning poet who has been coaching my fellow creative professionals for almost 30 years.
I help my clients in three main areas:
Creativity Coaching – creating the best work of your life
Creative Career Coaching – carving out a uniquely rewarding career
Creative Leadership Coaching – inspiring others to create something bigger than yourself
I host The 21st Century Creative podcast and have written four books for creatives.
My poetry has been carved in sandstone, turned into a diamond ring, published in leading literary journals, and has won prizes in national competitions.
My show A Mouthful of Air has been selected by The Guardian and Podcast Review as one of the best poetry podcasts.
Mark McGuinness is a rare cat – part poet, part coach for creative professionals, part old-time, overeducated Brit who thinks deeply about stuff you and I have never heard of … a man who has lived the life and who has watched and worked intimately with hundreds of others who’ve done the same.
