I'm a former life coaching client of Julius's (yes, cringe ahoy) and I can confirm that he is highly unprofessional in his service. I dropped him as a life coach on account of this, and after seeing how disgustingly he treated Tabitha and India on the show. What I find astounding is the fact he sees absolutely no issue with his behaviour and how this would damage his professional image and credibility. In fact, I called him out on his behaviour on the show and how revolting I found his treatment of various women, and he patronisingly told me to "take it with a pinch of salt".
In terms of Julius's professional conduct - or lack thereof - I had various niggles with his conduct throughout the course of our (online) sessions, which I foolishly bit my tongue on but finally voiced to him after seeing his appalling behaviour on screen. He was late to the vast majority of our sessions, and would literally only notify me minutes beforehand that he would be late to our appointments by 10-30 minutes, or would ask to postpone it to a later time that day. Unbelievably, he didn't once apologise for being late or chopping and changing appointment times at a moment's notice. He would simply just ask in a cavalier manner if we could rearrange, as if his time was more valuable than mine, and his clients should have to fit around his schedule and laissez-faire approach to appointment times.
On another occasion, I confirmed a session booking with Julius over WhatsApp for the following day, but he didn't get back to me for nearly 48 hours - meaning he missed the session. When I finally heard from him, he didn't even acknowledge the fact he missed our session, let alone apologise, and breezily asked if we could do one the following day.
Another major concern for me was the fact he rolled on our sessions to a new block booking without seeking my consent first. I was only made aware of this when Julius messaged me to ask if I could send him payment for this new block booking. Needless to say, I felt embarrassed and put on the spot, so agreed to do so, without having thinking space (due to some personal stress I was going through) to consider whether this was something I actually wanted. Absolutely astonishing and unethical as hell on his part. When I told him I didn't realise we were on a new session, he didn't even ask if I was happy to proceed - or ask me to sign a new contract - as he should have done. Sneaky as hell.
What's all the more galling is the fact Julius also had the audacity to judge and virtue-signal about the behaviour of a guy who did the exact same thing to me that he did to India. He's not an honourable person in the slightest and his behaviour smacks of narcissism and a breath-taking lack of self-awareness.
This is all remarkable for the fee he charges - which I assure you is far from cheap.
On review, I'm annoyed at myself for not ending the life coaching sessions sooner, merely on account of Julius's staggeringly arrogant and self-centred behaviour towards his paying client. But seeing his treatment of India was the absolute tipping point for me and what prompted me to cancel our sessions and call him out on his behaviour.
Another very concerning issue for me was the fact Julius ignored my requests for a refund four times (for four life coaching sessions I cancelled), and only gave my money back when I threatened to seek legal advice on the matter. I also provided him with feedback on various concerns I had around his unprofessionalism during our sessions, but he completely ignored this too. Any half-decent professional would have been perturbed by such complaints about their service and done their utmost to apologise and try to make amends with their client - but not Julius. He sees zero issue with how he conducts himself both professionally and on the show, and can't seem to mentally grasp why people are so reviled by his terrible attitude and unbelievable lack of respect towards women.
To me, it's deeply troubling that the show's producers are continuing to give Julius a platform to promote himself and his life coaching service, and that he probably has many impressionable followers who will sign up to his service without realising what they're getting themselves into. I've contacted MiC's production company let them know about my experience of him as a life coach. Hopefully they'll actually take it seriously and hold him to account for his behaviour, but who knows.
I need to see this baby right now, I can’t wait
