It’s time to give up
In today’s culture, perhaps especially among men, we put a high premium on determination. We so often encourage people to “never give up.” Is that wise?

Are you missing a strong sense of fulfillment from your career? Are you searching for a new professional role more aligned with your values? Are you struggling to figure out what you have to offer the world?
What’s so helpful about purpose anyway? What are the practical benefits of declaring your purpose? Why think about it at all?
For this chapter of my life, the purpose I’ve defined for myself is: I reveal a world of beauty.
It’s so much easier to act like this world is black or white and that people are either right or wrong. But it’s not more kind. It’s not more truthful. And it does not move us closer to the radically peaceful and caring world we so yearn for.
I don’t have a set coaching system that I am wedded to. The work we do is informed first and foremost by whatever best supports you. You don’t adapt to me and my system. I adapt to you.

Ultimately, a coach’s core goal should be to get you into reflection about YOU. And this usually happens by letting their own personalities, values, beliefs, etc. take a backseat so that you are front and center.
While similar to therapy in some ways, coaching is an entirely different modality and might help you tap into different insights or possibilities for your life, especially if you’ve been in therapy for years and want to try something new.
Life coaching? Executive coaching? Leadership coaching? Coaching is many different things and can mean different things to different people. It is a huge umbrella under which many disparate practices and modalities can fall. With me, it aims to be a powerful catalyst for personal, creative, or professional fulfillment.
