Cut through the noise, access the clarity you have within, and go forward with confidence.
Athletes, former athletes, christian men, and the go-getters… if you’re tired of carrying it all alone, tired of all the noise that’s distracting you and holding you back, and you’re ready to start trusting yourself and making real progress, this is for you.
Why This Matters
Life is rushed, noisy, and full of comparison and “shoulds” (external noise).
We chase success defined by others and purpose solely in what we do.
We’ve become human doings rather than human beings.
Far too many men are isolating themselves to put-off this perception that It’s all good.
The Challenge
Burnout, stress, pressure, and a constant feeling of “not enough.”
We don’t trust ourselves; limiting beliefs creep in and hold us back (internal noise).
No one to challenge us—we consume advice, social media, and our own self-doubt like it’s the Truth. (living on autopilot)
The Problem
SHIFT your mindset, energy, and perspective.
Create intentional space to slow down, reflect, challenge yourself, and uncover answers within.
Structure to turn clear thoughts into real action, and grow.
Partnership to support the process and build accountability.

High-level athletes chase productivity, and achievement. It’s all about doing more, being more, achieving more. There’s often self-induced pressure to succeed. Stress exists in just trying to balance life. Ego gets in the way of confidence, clarity, and peace. Coaching gives you space and structure to slow down, think clearly, and strengthen your mental game on and off the field. With a thought partner in your corner, you'll reduce stress, turn your athlete mindset into life skills, and gain a stronger sense of direction, identity, and purpose. Learn more.

Xander G.
“I’ve gained a ton of self-confidence and clarity, replacing fear of the unknown with genuine excitement for my future. Chris has guided me in exploring my interests, values, and passions, addressing my worries, doubts, “shoulds,” and limiting beliefs. I always recognized your listening skills, and when you began coaching, I knew you’d be great. I felt stuck in life without understanding why, but your description of coaching sparked hope. Working with you has been transformative; I now have clarity in many areas of my life, and everything feels like it’s aligning just how I want it to. ”

“You have helped me pull out the wisdom within; you’ve helped me find the real truth to what I have been wrestling with and striving for. I have become more aware of what I need to prioritize in my life to be God honoring and fruitful for the benefit of others. There’s a lot of Christian’s, men especially, that either don’t take or have the time to dig into the questions we wrestle with, or isolate themselves with busy lives, families, careers, and other things that doesn’t allow them to take the time to truly grow. This will be such a blessing to their lives, as it has been to mine.”

“I’ve been able to completely shift how I approach soccer and life. In the past, my mindset depended on performance—if things were going well, I felt good, and if they weren’t, I carried all the pressure. Together we worked on creating a ‘nothing to lose, enjoy it all’ mindset. A year later, I can see how much that shift has changed everything. I’m leading my team in points, playing free and confident, and actually enjoying the game again. More importantly, I’m not defined by results anymore—I’m present, I’m enjoying my teammates and my life outside of soccer, and I know I can perform at my best without the weight of pressure holding me back. That freedom has built huge momentum for me both on and off the field. In fact, this approach has led to the best results yet.”

"Chris helped me think different and get clearer on the things I really value. It’s been great having you as a thought partner to get me thinking in new ways, approaching things in a different way, and living more like my best self; aligned with what I value most. It took me 8 years, 3 career paths, 2 cities, and countless dysfunctional friendships and relationships to try and figure it out on my own. I wish I would’ve met Chris sooner."

Caleb G.
“I have gained a lot of clarity and now have more structure in my life. It was refreshing to have an outlet to talk through what's on my mind and learn exercises and tools that helped me explore areas of my mindset I hadn’t unlocked on my own.
I've seen real improvement in my resilience, organization, and overall mindset. Even during busy seasons of life, I now have strategies in place to stay grounded, focused, and aligned with what matters most to me. My confidence has grown tremendously, and I feel better equipped to handle challenges with a proactive, disciplined approach. I’m excited to continue building on the foundation we’ve created.”

Frequently Asked Questions:
“So, you give advice on how I should live my life?”
NO ADVICE! Instead, I will ask thought-provoking questions in a structure that allows you to clearly articulate the answer you already have within (which you do have!). I’m not the expert in your life, just in the coaching process.
“How is coaching different than therapy, in general?’”
A coach is like an athletic trainer—assisting with performance and improvement.
A therapist is like a sports medicine doctor—addressing injuries and healing.
Coaches may touch on emotional or personal history, but always in service of goal attainment & growth, not healing.
“What is the whole point of this? Why would I do this?”
To get what you want and where you want to be faster, easier, with more intention and confidence, and with less stress. This is an opportunity to accelerate growth and get closer to the living the life you want.
