David Forde
David Forde, a former international and professional footballer, faced significant challenges when he transitioned from the pitch to a new path after retiring. The shift from the adrenaline of professional sports to finding a new purpose brought its own struggles, but it also sparked a passion for understanding human potential. David earned an MSc in Coaching Psychology and Personal Development, channeling his experiences into helping others navigate the uncertainties that come with career change. As a coach and mentor, his journey equips him to guide athletes through the rough terrain of life beyond football, helping them build confidence and conviction to thrive off the field, just as they did on it.

What our learners say about us
"I enrolled in the 'Unleashing Your Potential' workshop series and it was honestly one of the best investments I've made in myself. The way the Pathfinder Academy teaches confidence is unlike anything I’ve experienced before. The blend of practical exercises, real-world examples, and mindset shifts allowed me to develop skills I can apply daily. I feel more empowered to take risks, speak up in meetings, and chase my goals without hesitation."
"The Confidence Mastery workshop at Pathfinder Academy has been a game-changer for my daughter. She used to shy away from any form of leadership in his sports team and school projects. But after going through the step-by-step teachings on self-confidence, she's now more assertive and willing to take on new challenges. The practical exercises and expert guidance made it easy to apply what he learned in real-life situations. I can't thank Pathfinder enough for helping her unlock his potential!"
