Are you flat out frustrated with life? Have you been experiencing one setback after another? Or, is there one particular area of life that you just can’t seem to tackle? I can relate. A few years ago I was more overwhelmed with my life than ever before. I had a college degree, a beautiful fiance, and a job that supported my passion for running marathons. But, something wasn’t working. I didn’t have the synergy I was used to. Every day felt like a battle that was beating me up a little more with every step.
Fast forward to today and I have greater peace, satisfaction, and achievement under my belt. I feel energized when I wake up before dawn and I look forward to the challenges that lie ahead. What changed? I experienced a series of “Aha!” moments that woke me up to how my life was crashing down before me and I made a commitment to get back on track. Excellent coaching can create those “Aha!” moments in your life too.
From careers and finances to health and relationships, coaching is one of the greatest means to unlock your own potential when obstacles seem to big to overcome. I am available to provide a much needed 3rd party perspective that can clarify challenges when you may be in too deep to see the potential solutions.
I am not your typical coach. I ask personal questions. I seek to uncover vulnerabilities. I may even ask things of you no one ever has before. I approach coaching from this perspective because I believe that once you are able to open up and verbalize what is going on inside your heart and head, you will know where you are today. Acknowledging your current situation is the first step to knowing what is required to move forward.
What You Can Expect
Here is what you can expect from me:
1. Prompt, professional replies to your phone calls and emails.
2. A free 30-minute personal phone consultation with me prior to the coaching, so I can better understand how I can best serve you.
3. A custom coaching experience, exclusively created for your goals and aspirations. In addition to my own recommendations I will encourage you to seek out other sources of information related to your areas of desired growth (especially if I believe another resource can be of more benefit to you than my own services).
4. A follow-up consultation after the coaching, to make sure I met your expectations. (I also want to know how you think I can improve.)
“Coaching is not about analyzing your past (that’s therapy) or telling you what to do (that’s consulting); coaching is about looking forward and finding the answers from within. You are the expert on your life. Your coach is the champion who can help you become more conscious about what you want and how to get there.”

A Little About Me
I am the author of the soon-to-be-published book, Graduated And Clueless: Guidebook to a Passionate, Purposeful, and Profitable Life After College. (It’s available now as an eBook and Audio Book).
This website is my personal, business, and book-related blog that focuses on 7 key areas of success: Careers/Business, Entrepreneurship, Finances, Goals/Habits, Health/Wellness, Personal Development, and a Misc. category for everything else.
I believe that life is a journey that is enhanced with intentional planning and execution. The blog posts here at GraduatedAndClueless.com are designed ideally for recent college graduates who are looking for direction in the real world.
I have spent most of my career in Higher Education working for Anthem Career College in Nashville, Tennessee. When I am not working at Anthem, I spend most of my time setting and achieving personal goals in all areas of life, most recently health & wellness. I am a committed raw vegan, ultramarathon runner, and personal development fanatic. I live without credit cards and feel as though I have become an evangelist for all-things-radical as much of my success stems from my willingness to do whatever it takes to get radical results.
My blog has been ranked as one of the Top 100 Inspirational Blogs for Life After College and Top 50 Blogs to Help You Survive Life After Graduation. I also have more than 1,000 followers on Twitter and 400 fans on Facebook.
I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in Theatre & Psychology from Truman State University in Kirksville, Missouri. I am happily married to my wife, Tessa. We live in the Bellevue area of Nashville, Tennessee with our pug Benny. In my free time, I enjoy reading, trail running, and preparing raw vegan meals.
Most Requested Areas of Focus
I typically coach on topics related to life after college, personal development, and natural health. I will customize my coaching to meet your specific goals and aspirations. My goal is to facilitate the outcome you want to create.
My most Requested Areas of Focus Include:
- Life After College: How to Prepare For it – How to Deal With it
- Guaranteeing Success in Life through Self-Awareness & Rapid Experimentation
- Careers for Newbies: Finding Your Working Niche in Corporations or On Your Own
- Personal & Professional Development: Getting What You Want in Work and Life
- Goal Achievement & Productivity: How to Achieve Exponential Growth 7 Days a Week
- Natural Health & Wellness: Achieving Stellar Health through Veganism, Juicing, and Marathoning
As Your Coach, I Can Help You:
- Evaluate your past to identify what got you where you are today
- Clarify your vision for where you want to go in near and distant future
- Find balance in all areas of life (health, wealth, career, relationships, spirituality, etc.)
- Discover what actually makes you fulfilled each and every day
- Create action plans to overcome the biggest obstacles you are facing today
- Set goals that will inspire you to get out of bed at 5 am and actually look forward to your day!
How it Works
Through phone calls, email, and Skype I can work with you as long as you have access to the Internet. We will schedule approximately one session per week. Between sessions you will have assignments from me to complete. You may email or call me at any time throughout the coaching experience. I will make myself available to answer your questions and help you through to your next milestone.
Despite my availability, I will not be your best friend, meaning I will hold you accountable for being a rock star. I want the best for you and the best will only come out when you are working hard. I will push you. I will make you do things you would normally never do. However, I will move at a pace that is conducive to growth and not burnout. Don’t worry if you think this sounds too harsh. It won’t be. Like I said, I will customize the experience to facilitate growth for you, no matter where you are now.
Also, as much as I would love to coach a dozen people at once, it is unrealistic for me to devote myself fully to a large group. Only a select few people will be my coaching clients at any one time. To find out if I am currently accepting clients just check the top of this page or email me just to make sure.
100% Money-Back Guarantee
At any time throughout the coaching experience you may wish to move on. I offer a full 100% Money-Back Guarantee if you are not completely thrilled with the coaching you have received from me. I will respect your time and commitment to seeing your own goals come to fruition. Do not hesitate to ask me tough questions if you do not feel you are getting the value you expected.
The cost for personal coaching decreases if you sign up for an extended time period. I offer three standard packages that you can choose from. A fourth option is to negotiate your own time frame and pricing structure if you cannot pay the full amount today. I accept payment in installments, however, you will pay slightly more over time with this option. For example, you could make a monthly payment of $100 for 3 months for the 2-Week Coaching Program. Contact me if you would like to setup a payment plan.
- 2-week Coaching: $249
- 4-week Coaching: $399
- 8-week Coaching: $749
