Overview

“The easy way to learn is from others mistakes. The hard way is from your own mistakes. The tragic way is not learning from either.” Entrepreneur and world-traveller, Lewis Raymond Taylor, learnt the hard way. From his first ASBO at fourteen, until his final stint in prison in his early twenties, Lewis battled with substance misuse, trauma and mental illness - whilst searching for the antidote to the emptiness he felt inside. After a sudden moment of clarity and the confidence that was instilled in him by his prison tutor, in the education department; Lewis immediately started to take action, and found a path through his limiting beliefs, insecurities and doubts. The former prisoner, who was expelled from school at fifteen, continued to use the power of his own mind to drive himself to rehabilitation, cure himself from mental illness, finish at the top of his college, progress to University, start a successful multi 6 figure business , travel the world; and become active in the community by volunteering for various charities and organisations. Lewis now positions himself as an a-typical Coach and Speaker. Despite being qualified and CPD accredited, Lewis’s tag line, ‘Breaking the Mould’, perfectly captures the way he uses his invaluable, experiential knowledge, to motivate and inspire others to find new ways of thinking, and create success for themselves as they define in. As the saying goes, “change your mindset; change your life” – Lewis is a clear example of that, and now helps others do the same.
