Why Work With Me?
You don't need another generic coach.
You need someone who understands the world you operate in - and has lived it.
Hi, I'm Yan Ping. I spent nearly 18 years in front-office investment banking at Barclays (Markets), navigating high-stakes deals, demanding stakeholders, and relentless pressure. I know what it takes to succeed in that world - and I also know the invisible cost of over-functioning: when success is still happening, but it starts to drain rather than energise you.
That’s why I do what I do today: helping high-performing bankers move from Pain Point to Ping Point - where inner and outer alignment click, and success feels alive again.
We pinpoint what's no longer working, cut through the noise, and create a way forward that feels clear, energising, and sustainable - both in how you lead and how you live.
What Makes My Coaching Different?
I’ve Lived Your Reality.
I don't just understand high-pressure careers from the sidelines - I've lived the specific reality of senior investment banking. The politics, the pace, the pressure to always be 'on'. I speak your language because I've sat in your chair.
I Bridge Real-World Experience with Cutting-Edge Coaching.
I blend lived front-office experience with world-class coaching credentials, and a foundation in psychology and neuroscience. This unique blend gives you practical, strategic support grounded in evidence and insight.
Tailored. Strategic. Personal.
No fluff. No cookie-cutter templates. Every engagement is tailored to your pace, challenges, and goals - with real progress you can see and feel.
Success Shouldn't Require Sacrifice.
You’ve worked too hard to feel depleted or disconnected. This work helps you keep performing - but in a way that sustains your energy, protects your identity, and honours what matters most.
Who I Work Best With
I work best with those who:
- Are successful on paper but secretly running on empty
- Are navigating transitions and need clarity on their next chapter
- Want their presence to match their expertise - without having to become someone you're not
- Still care about excellence - but no longer want to sacrifice themselves for it
If that sounds like you, you don't have to figure it out alone.
