Stop chasing joy. Begin living in wonder! I help high achieving individuals and companies end burnout
11/17/2025
On the outside, many executives of scaling companies look like they have it all together. Inside, though, it can feel very different. The constant pressure, a racing mind that won't shut off, and the fear that if you slow down, everything will fall apart.
That’s where Emotional Health Mastery™ for Executives comes in.
One-to-one coaching with me gives you:
✅ Customized emotional health strategies
✅ Support and accountability between sessions
✅ Tools to prevent burnout and strengthen relationships
✅ Space to finally feel balanced, even at the top
If you’ve ever thought, “I should be enjoying life more than this,” it may be time to go beyond a business coach.
“Once we realize that every thought pattern, every behavior, and every way that we react to somebody else’s words have been filtered through our belief systems, that’s when we can begin the work of changing them.”
This is one of the core ideas from my book, The Emotionally Healthy You: How to Own Your Past and LOVE Your Future.
🎁 Gift it to yourself.
🎁 Gift it to your employees.
🎁 Gift it to the entrepreneur or growth seeker in your life.
Because the greatest gift you can give anyone, in the workplace and beyond, is unshakeable emotional health!

One of my favorite things is connecting with groups, whether at conferences, team trainings, or virtual events, and giving people the tools to take control of their emotional health.
When audiences walk away not only inspired but also equipped with actionable tools and real-world solutions they can apply right away… that’s the magic.
Every talk is customized to your event or theme, so your audience gets exactly what they need in that moment.
Here's a sneak peak into part of my new audiobook, The Emotionally Healthy You, where I talk about boundaries.
Want a better life? Start by defining what you will and won't accept, no matter what. Then, build flexible structures inside those boundaries to live into your best self.

“What is perfectionism costing you?” — The Emotionally Healthy You
Perfectionism might look like high standards, but underneath? It’s often fear in disguise. Fear of failure. Fear of not being enough. Fear of being seen.
And it’s exhausting.
In leadership, perfectionism can cost you clarity, creativity, connection and your well-being.
👉Ask yourself:
What if being an emotionally healthy leader means being present, not perfect?

Your thoughts shape your life!
“Best book on understanding how you think and process life... then helping you change your thought processes to overcome the barriers holding you back from your true potential.”
That’s the heart of The Emotionally Healthy You.
It’s not about fixing who you are. It’s about understanding how you think, how you respond, and how you grow on purpose.
When you shift your thought patterns, you open the door to clarity, confidence, and lasting change.
This book resonates with people who are ready to do the inner work and lead from a healthier, stronger place - at home, at work, and within themselves.
👉What would be possible if your thoughts supported your growth, instead of holding it back?

When emotional health becomes company culture, everything changes.
Strong leadership begins with emotional clarity and when that clarity becomes part of your culture, the impact reaches every corner of your business.
✅ Communication becomes more open
✅ Teams work with greater trust
✅ Productivity flows with purpose
✅ People feel valued, supported, and motivated
Emotional health creates the foundation for meaningful growth, strong relationships, and lasting success.
What would shift in your business if emotional health was the standard, not just the support?
Start with one conversation. One choice. One moment of clarity.
That’s where culture begins.

What is the common element that keeps someone from being unable to take action on a healthy lifestyle, execute on a business they’re passionate about, or find the right romantic partner? It’s that thing that makes you feel stuck, and your ambition and hard work doesn’t seem to make a difference. It subtly and quietly makes you feel unworthy, incapable, and powerless.
On the surface, I had a successful higher education and start to my career. After I graduated from Cornell University, I spent nearly 8 years working at Goldman Sachs where I had a successful career. By my late 20’s, I was able to pay off my undergraduate student loans, help my family out of credit card debt, and support causes I believed in. All while being a single man in New York. Sounds good right? Wrong.
Beneath the surface, I spent the majority of my life batting deeply held self-criticism. I was severely overweight and headed down the path of heart disease and diabetes. I avoided leaving my apartment on the weekends out of shame of being seen. And a relationship? Forget about it. I hated the man in the mirror.
Then I changed.
I lost 100 pounds.
I changed careers, enrolled in a four year medical college, and became a naturopathic physician.
I found and married the love of my life.
I conquered self-criticism.
I believe mastering our everyday mental health is the key to achieving our goals for our physical health, our profession, and our relationship in a fulfilling manner. It starts and ends in the mind, yet we don’t talk enough about everyday mental health. I’m out to change that.
I help my patients and clients:
- Rewire their default thought and belief patterns as it relates to their self-image
- Build true confidence and momentum in life
- Sustainably lose weight while preventing or sometimes reversing conditions like type 2 diabetes and hypertension
- Establish the basis for longevity and graceful aging
Ultimately, I help people believe in themselves, even if nobody ever has.
