The Approach
I work at the hinge point
between body and story.
Most executive coaching focuses on cognition. Most therapy focuses on emotional history. Most mediation focuses on resolution. This work operates at the integration point -- where somatic awareness, mental clarity, and relational intelligence converge.
The Differentiator
Integrated Leadership Transformation
Identity-level recalibration rather than skill-building alone.
Identifying Nervous System Activation
Recognizing when your body enters fight, flight, or freeze during conflict -- and learning to stay present instead of reacting from survival mode.
Translating Somatic Cues into Choice
The tightened jaw, the held breath, the collapsed posture -- these are data. We learn to read them and convert physical signals into conscious, intentional responses.
Interrupting Reactive Patterns
The patterns that keep recurring -- the shutdown, the blame, the over-control -- are not personality flaws. They are automatic programs. We interrupt them at the source.
Aligning Internal State with External Leadership
When what you feel, what you think, and how you act are in alignment, leadership becomes authentic. That congruence is what others trust and follow.
Beyond Conventional Approaches
This Is Not Coaching as Usual
Executive Coaching
Typically focuses on cognition -- frameworks, strategies, behavioral tips. Important, but incomplete when the issue is structural.
Therapy
Focuses on emotional history and healing. Valuable, but not designed for the leadership context where patterns play out in real time.
Mediation
Focuses on resolution between parties. Useful in the moment, but doesn't address the internal operating system that created the conflict.
This Work
Operates at the integration point -- where body, mind, and relational intelligence converge. The problems addressed are recurring conflict patterns, reactive leadership behaviors, misalignment between values and actions, and breakdowns that stem from unexamined internal operating systems.
Who This Is For
For Leaders Ready to Do the Real Work
This is for high-performing leaders and partners whose current way of operating is no longer working.
Leaders Facing Internal or Relational Breakdown
The patterns are visible -- in your team, in your partnerships, in the way decisions stall or blow up. You're ready to look at what's underneath.
Partners in Family or Closely Held Businesses
Where professional and personal are inseparable. Succession, roles, boundaries -- navigated without fracturing the relationships that matter.
High Performers Navigating Identity Shifts
The role has changed. The stakes have risen. What used to work no longer does. You need to evolve how you operate, not just what you do.
Individuals Ready to Confront Patterns
Not looking to blame circumstances. Ready to examine the internal operating system that keeps producing the same results -- and willing to change it.
This Work Requires
The goal is not perfection. The goal is agency.
This is deeper than
performance coaching.
Start with an exploratory conversation. No pitch. Just an honest look at where you are and whether this work is the right fit.
