If you've begrudgingly made it to this page because you stumbled across a link for one more person claiming to be a "life coach"… Or maybe we met in person and you're here out of sheer curiosity…
Either way, you can relax. I'm not going to flaunt a list of bestselling books with AI-generated titles or a résumé of global speaking engagements built around selling a course.
I'm a lot more like you than you probably expect, and I approach what I do with the same level of honesty.
Most of the people I work with don't have a problem with motivation, and if you're still reading this, I can say with certainty you don't either.
What's lacking is direction, clarity, and knowing what to get motivated about in the first place.
Maybe you've just graduated, quit a job, or you're about to. Maybe you're deep in a career that looks right on paper but feels hollow in practice. Or maybe something stopped you, an injury, a loss, a moment where the version of yourself you were building toward suddenly felt out of reach.
The shape of it is different for everyone yet the feeling underneath tends to be the same.
One way or another, the pressure is on. It feels like you're expected to pick a lane while you've been barreling down the shoulder this entire time.
I say that because that was me just over a year ago.
Rolling down the shoulder of my own highway, no GPS (game plan), no seatbelt (accountability), under the influence (that one's just the truth)…
Taking every exit I could, hoping something would stick, thinking I'd arrive at some fulfilling destination while never having decided where I was actually trying to go in the first place.
It was inevitable I'd crash.
And I did. Not metaphorically.
I moved to Los Angeles after college to pursue directing and screenwriting. That evolved into a passion for stunt work, which, combined with the lifestyle I just described, left me with both a broken sense of self, and a broken neck.
For me, it took coming to terms with the idea that I might have lost my life before everything finally snapped into focus, and that experience forced me to start asking different questions.
Not just what should I do next, but why was I thinking the way I was in the first place?
Why did clarity feel so temporary? And why does so much of the guidance around "finding your purpose" feel vague, recycled, or completely disconnected from reality?
In my humble opinion, it's because it is.
Unless you're willing to do the work, to actually look inward and arrive at answers on your own terms, no piece of strategically packaged advice is going to break the pattern.
That's what led me here: neuroscience and psychology at Harvard Extension School, certificates in positive psychology and human behavior, a master's degree in progress, and executive coaching training through the ACT Leadership program at Brown University. The science matters to me, not as a credential flex, but because understanding how people actually think is the whole job.
Coaching can mean a lot of different things, and the skepticism around it isn't unwarranted. But having worked with a coach myself, there's no real argument that navigating everything alone is the more effective approach.
It's become a mission of mine to make sure others don't have to find out what's below rock bottom before deciding to change.
If you're looking for surface-level motivation or a one-and-done framework, this probably isn't for you.
But if you want to understand how you think, why you make the decisions you do, and actually move forward with direction, we should talk.
