MY STORY

I have been doing this for more a decade. Only back then it was referred to as leadership rather than coaching.

Over the years, I've had the privilege of being in rooms with some of the most influential people on the planet. What I realized is that we are all human, struggling with similar challenges. Our life demands our attention.

 

For me, it took almost it took a near-loss of everything I held dear in life to wake up to this truth. I overworked, navigated self-imposed pressures to perform at the highest level, underwent job changes and job loss, faced financial hurdles, wrestled with overwhelming anxiety, endured divorce, received a daunting autoimmune diagnosis, and lived through a global pandemic—only to emerge like a phoenix from its ashes.

 

Today, I am the healthiest, happiest, and most fulfilled version of myself - the leader of my life - and I want the same for you.

 

Individuals and teams come to me for support, guidance, and proven, science-backed tools to create their next level, overcome their greatest challenges, uplevel their leadership, and feel good—here and now.

MY MISSION

My mission is simple: to share proven tools and strategies that empower you to create and lead a better life—a life that you truly love.

Whether you're looking to become better leader, going through a big change in your professional or personal life, starting or growing your business, I am here to help you reach the highest levels of your potential and tap into the deepest wisdom within you.

 

My aim is to make you feel like you're not alone on this journey. I want to connect with you, share experiences, and help you tackle any isolation you might feel, so you can embrace life more fully.

MY METHOD

There are coaches and therapists out there who work on helping you change or process your past. That's not what I do. I help you create your future from the future - a new possibility in your life that wasn’t there before. We bring those future goals, dreams and visions into reality now. 

I combine neuroscience, performance science, psychology, positive intelligence, the world’s leading mindset techniques, and spirituality to teach you the power of you, and the keys to reaching your potential. I show you that you can "fight an enemy" without having to know what they had for breakfast or what kind of childhood they had.

 

If you're looking for a someone that will help fundamentally transform your life, business, and relationships, work with me.

MY PHILOSOPHY

I believe you must bring your whole self to the table if you want to thrive as a leader in today’s world. That includes your unique set of gifts, your personality, your sense of humor and most importantly, your heart.

I believe that whether you run your own business or not, a creative and entrepreneurial approach is critical to fully blossom in the modern world and to experience the happiness and fulfillment you deserve. 

No matter what your dreams or obstacles, I believe you have the power to change your life and, by doing so, you’ll change the world.

Now I want to learn about you.
How good can it get for you? It could begin right now. Imagine—
and let's get on a call together.

"Do not go where the path may lead. Instead, go where there is no path and leave a trail."

Ralph Waldo Emerson

I am

love.

My practice is built on a bedrock of love, a passion for what’s possible and a commitment to be an unstoppable force for good. 

I allow myself to fall in love with the magnificence of the human being in front of me long enough to have that person rediscover their own magnificence.

I don’t have all the answers. I make mistakes, have bad days, and experience fear and self-doubt, just like the rest of humanity. But my commitment is to always lead you with love and bring you the very best of what I’m living and learning, while keeping it real and honest as I go.

So please don’t expect perfection but do expect thought-provoking ideas, timeless wisdom, some playful fun, and an unwavering devotion to help you live your most expansive, expressive and meaningful life.

My promise is that you don’t have to do the work alone, we can do it together.
