I’ve discovered the greatest fear of most high-impact, creative men of color is mediocrity, failure, and even success itself. They are frustrated with “the system,” their communities, their country, and their Christian values they feel, in many ways, have failed them for far too long.

They are challenged by perfectionism, imposter syndrome, and self sabotage. What they really want is TOTAL UNINTERRUPTED FREEDOM. Freedom in their finances, time, energy, and life experiences. Freedom to dream bigger and create larger impacts in the world.

They think the problem is that they are stuck and need to do more to get to the next level. So they end up on this auto-pilot hamster wheel of endless, meaningless goal-achieving. However, the real problem is that they are so fixated on all their doing (and “performing”) that they are asleep to all the real answers and the divine, authoritative power that lies deeper within themselves—their being.

That’s my story… The over-achieving perfectionist. I was on that hamster wheel for nearly 40 years until my entire life was turned upside down in the blink of an eye on September 30, 2019 when I was involved in a car crash! Physically both parties walked away from the wreckage with minimal injuries. However, I was emotionally injured... primarily because I WAS AT FAULT!

I went into deep depression in the weeks following. That perfectionist persona I’d created perished in that crash I grieved it for weeks… I didn’t know who the hell I was anymore… Until I awakened to my own agency to accept the path of the deepest inner work journey of my life. That journey continues to this day…

On this path, I have also awakened to my spiritual vision… I envision a world where the highest sense of INTEGRITY, AGENCY, and FREEDOM fully emerges among all life on earth. This is the internal flame that burns deep within my heart.

I now serve as an award-winning, master-certified life and leadership coach. My training and experience specializations include ontological mindful ecological living, CBC (cognitive behavioral coaching), and executive/leadership coaching. I have coached within numerous organizations such as Lyra Health, BetterUp, CoachHub, Landit, and The Vision Investment.

I completed my doctorate (Ph.D.) in professional coaching and human development from the International University of Professional Studies in 2022.

I believe leadership is doing my own shadow work and traveling deeply within himself first, paving the way for others to do the same. Partnering with me as your coach, we will dive into your deep inner work together. And rest assured, I am doing this deep inner work right along with you.

Coaching is a sacred path of exploration, creation, and mastery… From day one, every session will be a safe space for you to explore your worldview, your thoughts, your beliefs, your values, and your heart identity. To feel ALIVE and THRIVE in the land of possibility. To bring new insights and distinctions into the foreground that propel your life forward like never before. A life of purpose and presence. A life of freedom and abundance. A life of grace and ease.

To borrow from the words of Neale Donald Walsch… My vow as your coach is to support you in recreating yourself anew in the next golden moment of now, in the next grandest version of the greatest vision ever you held about who are.
