I've had a ton of clients ask me: "Why don't you become a Therapist?" It's because I don't want to be limited in how I help people, like the many clients who come to me after therapy doesn't work. I want to introduce you to a former client of mine, Shannon. Prior to working together she had been seeing a Therapist for several years until finally one day it dawned on her. "My Therapist is keeping me stuck". (Scroll to the bottom to see how I helped more in 12 weeks than her therapist did in 2...

He showed up to our call exhausted and desperate. It's been 4 months since he started this new management role where he has shifted from "player" to "coach" in his company and it's been like drinking from a water hose trying to meet all the demands. Not only does he have his own responsibilities, but now he has an army of people wanting his time, opinion and answers. It's like a brood of baby birds chirpy loudly in his ears until they get fed. In my clients scenario, it's like they never get...

The Power of Deadlines In January of 2017 I gave myself a 1 year deadline to find a new career path, with the ultimatum that I would quit my CrossFit coaching job by end of the year no matter what.I remember thinking 6 months after getting this job that I knew I didn’t want to do this long term. 5 Years later I was still there - hence the line in the sand. I knew I had to s*** or get off the pot if I didn’t want my life to pass me by. I spend the next year being mentored to go into Orthopedic...

👋 First time reading? Click Here to subscribe Urgency Crushes Authenticity I’ve learned the hard way that anytime I feel like something is an emergency, I need to slow down. In fact I’ve made a rule with myself - whenever I feel the overwhelming pressure build up to get things done immediately, I shut the project down ASAP.This happens most often with Instagram. I wake up, have my coffee, get some sunshine, open my phone and then bam- the alarm bells go off. That little voice screams : “if...

WHY NICE GUYS FINISH LAST I had a call with a client last week who was facing the dilemma of wanting to Lead with confidence, while keeping deep relationships with his employees.Specifically, do what he knew was right, even if it would rock the boat with employees. He feared that if he didn’t listen to the opinions of his employees it would hurt the relationship. This is classic Nice Guy shit - so afraid to rock the boat or upset others that you walk on eggshells and abandon your own...

It's Friday Jan 24th and I’m currently in beautiful Crested Butte Colorado on a snowboard trip, but I can’t snowboard. Two weeks ago I fractured my patella while trail running.(The macho man in me needs you to know that I ran 4 miles back after the incident occurred 😅).The short version is while on a technical section my toe got caught on a rock and I fell “knee first” into a big boulder. Direct impact created quite the pain as I smashed into the rock.I was a little nervous since there’s no...

The Mastermind for ChangeMakers Over the past 15 years I’ve had a lot of different jobs and worked with a variety of people. And I’ve found a common thread with the ones doing deep work…✅ They want to do something they love. ✅ Make good money ✅ Create a lasting impact in the world ✅Have deep fulfilling relationships. This truth spans from professional athlete, to stay at home mom and the executive in the boardroom. Some of these goals are subjective - “good money” is relative, but most don’t...

What a $7,000 mistake taught me about making decisions In 2022 I was in a complete flow with who I was and my purpose. I had just left my head coach position at a CrossFit gym to take the final leap into Life and Leadership Coaching full time. What was once a dream, became a reality. 10 decades as a strength coach and I was ready to impact lives in a different way, all while working for myself. As I transitioned jobs I was also prepping that summer to travel in the UK and Europe indefinitely....
