Most appreciated comments from clients
I really admire your calm, steady energy and your ability to listen and be present with
me.
You have a natural talent for helping me
focus on the joy and good present in my life, making the real work of our time together
easier and more satisfying. The wisdom you
bring to our sessions, and how you bring that wisdom into what we do, sets you apart from
other coaches. Your natural leadership
ability makes your programs fun and effective. I
get a wonderful sense of delight and lightness of being whenever I work with you that
makes it easy to consciously experience being in my body while gently unfolding my talents
and reaching for my dreams. -- J.S., Portland, OR
“You offer a truly unique approach
to coaching. I’ve noticed how aware you
are of my process – how you tune into the energy rising and falling as we work
together – and how you use this to make me aware of when my passion for my vision
comes and goes. The way you support me to
move in the direction of my passion brings greater clarity about my next steps, and helps
me work through problems and meet challenges. Your
art seems to come from your sensitivity to energy and your capacity to draw me as a client
closer to what really excites me. In this
way, you have supported me in the emergence of my strengths and in areas of life and
business that truly inspire me.”
-- S.S., Pagosa Springs, CO
"I am grateful for your sensitivity
and ability to say the "right thing" at the "right time," guiding me,
not pushing me, through my transition. You have assisted me to see and trust my inner
knowing, encouraged me to grow into my dreams, and nurtured me in the skills to create the
foundation for change."
-S.T., Ashland Oregon
"You've taught me skills I never
learned at college. Your concise and inventive presentation of ideas has enabled me to
clarify and prioritize my goals, and is certainly helping me to reach them. In fact, in my
four months of working with you, I have seen remarkable changes in both the size and
success of my business, with accompanying improvement in the quality of my life."
-E.D., Boulder, Colorado

More Trivia
I’ve traveled America 8 times,
camping in state and national parks. Five of
these trips were as Staff Counselor with Teen’s Camping Tour of the West, a program
for exceptional teenagers. My most memorable trip across America was in 1994 when I
traveled for nine months in an Airstream travel trailer.
In 1996, I relocated from Boulder, CO to
Portland, OR. In the years since, I’ve
gone from married to unmarried and learned a lot about myself, my values, what I’m
going for in life, and how to be a much better coach.
I am grateful for this learning and for the wonderful community of friends
and associates that surround me today.
I am the fortunate uncle of seven
amazingly bright and loving nieces and nephews. Their
presence in my life constantly reminds me why building a strong personal foundation and
being a lifetime learner on a personal and spiritual development path is so important. Through my family, I am tremendously blessed.
I love to dance. Dance provides a vehicle for moving through
blocks, false beliefs, and stuck emotions while releasing accumulated stress from my body. Dance is a personal and spiritual practice for me
and flavors my work as a coach. I first
learned dance as a spiritual practice when I began to study Gabriel Roth’s 5 Rhythms. Now, seven years later, I am entering a mentorship
with Vin Marti, developer of Soul Motion, to deepen my own dance and to learn to lead
others in a style of dance where exploration of the sacred is a theme. I am thankful for my teachers and fellow dancers,
both past and present, who are showing me how to expand my ability to fully express my
authentic self through dance.
Quick synopsis who I am
I am a lifetime student of health and the
human sciences with a focus on human excellence and the creative power of focused
conscious intention.
A dancer – a healer – a traveler
