Music, Entertainment & Touring
For people working across music, touring, theatre, film, television and venues — on stage, behind the scenes and across the wider network that supports the entertainment industry.
Support from someone who’s actually been on the bus.
For people working across music, touring, live performance and events. Touring and production crews, technicians, managers, agents, artists and performers, venue and festival teams — and the wider network around them.
Life on the road. Industry relationships. Confidence. Pressure. Balance. Change. What comes next. The conversation starts with what’s happening for you.
Healthy Touring & Thriving
- More work, better work and new opportunities
- Touring in a way that's sustainable year after year
- Boundaries that hold up with clients, artists and crew
- Confidence in negotiating rates, roles and workload
- Staying creative when the schedule is relentless
- Longevity — bodies, hearing, sleep and pacing a long career
- Food, diet and movement when schedules keep changing
The Touring Life
- Tiredness that a week off no longer resolves
- Isolation on the road — loud rooms, quiet hotels
- Coming down after a run, and re-entering home life
- Relationships strained by long absences
- Weighing up whether this life still fits
- Being good at what you do while feeling the burn
End of the Run
- When a tour, a band, a show or a scene ends
- Recovery after a run — rest, food, movement and downtime
- Moving into a different role within the industry
- Building something alongside your industry work
- Taking years of experience into a different context
- Identity when the thing you've been known for changes
- Finding your way into whatever comes next
- Preparing yourself for the next run

Do you actually know this world?+
Yes. Stuart has many years of experience working across touring, production and festivals. You won't need to explain a load-in, advances, life on the road, or why coming home after a run can sometimes be an adjustment.
Can we work while I'm on the road?+
Yes. Sessions are held online via Zoom or Google Meet, so we can work around where you are and what your schedule looks like.
What about confidentiality in a small industry?+
Confidentiality is taken seriously, with the usual professional and legal limits that apply to counselling. Stuart's industry background also means he understands why this matters, particularly in a world where everyone seems to know everyone.
I work in theatre, film, television or another part of entertainment. Is this for me too?+
Absolutely. Stuart's own background is in music, production and touring, and people working across theatre, film, television, venues and the wider entertainment world are equally welcome.
I love this work and want more of it. Is that a reason to come?+
Absolutely. You might want more opportunities, better tours, more clients, stronger boundaries, greater confidence or a way of working that supports you for the long haul. All of that belongs here.
