Find Your
North Star

It all began on a cold February night in Massachusetts. A boy was born to deeply loving parents. His father was hardworking and caring. His mother was compassionate and generous. He was an only child. The first, and the last.

He was creative. He loved making things and playing make believe. He loved writing and design. He would pretend he was in far off lands halfway around the world. He would pretend he was from a time long ago.

He was sensitive and quiet. His eyes told the story of his soul. Empathetic by nature and compassionate to the core. He had a gift to share with the world. He was an old soul. Wise beyond his years.

He preferred the company of elders and would impress them with his wisdom. He preferred to chart his own course and follow his own interests. He felt as if he was from somewhere else. He often felt out of place, out of time, out of context.

Yet with each passing year, as he grew into an adult, his essence slowly fell asleep…

Chasing Success

I always had a deep inner drive to grow. I earned an MBA in global business by the age of 24. I completed post-graduate studies in design at RISD by the age of 27.

I started my own design firm at the height of the financial crisis in 2008. Everyone told me to find a job. To do what was safe. To seek security and consistency. But those words were the anthesis of everything I believed. They went against the fiber of my being.

The next decade brought far more success than I ever imagined. My business was thriving. I was earning more than I dreamed of making. I was working with notable clients around the world. My name became synonymous with good design and success.

Under the hard-driven surface, my essence was still shining through. I was seeking freedom, exploration, and discovery. I wanted to go my own way, to chart my own course.

Lonely Nights

From the outside, I was the picture of success. I was living in luxury buildings, driving BMWs, shopping in designer boutiques, collecting original art.

Yet deep within, I was unhappy. I would wake up every day with existential dread. A sinking feeling in my heart. A deep void in my soul. A sense of sorrow. A sense of betrayal. I felt I was living someone else’s life.

My days were all the same. Working away from dawn to deep in the night on projects that didn’t bring me any joy. Work for which I had lost my passion long ago.

Deep in the night I would wonder. Is this all there is? What’s the end game? How can this possibly go on forever? Where do I turn? What else could I possibly do?

I knew something had to change. I knew deep in my soul I was meant to be doing something else. Something deeper. Something of greater meaning and profound impact.

My essence within had been ignored for too long. It was fighting its way out. It wanted to be heard. It wanted to break free. It wanted to sing, dance, and play.

Awakening

In my darkest hours, I was questioning everything. My career. My purpose. What I was passionate about. I was questioning the very foundation I built my life on. I was questioning the business I had created and built from nothing.

When the student is ready, the teacher appears. And it was a cold and grey January that he did. My teacher and guide came with a message of light, love, and abundance. A message of creative free spirit. It was time to let the façade fall. It was time to remove the mask. It was time to let my essence break free.

I learned I had lost touch of who I truly was.
I learned I had been living my life behind a mask.
I learned I had let the essence of my inner child fall asleep.

I learned to let go of what no longer served me.
I learned to silence the voice of my inner critic.
I learned to connect with the wisdom of my higher self.
I learned to follow the callings of my soul, rather than wishes of others.
I learned to unlock the creator within.
I learned to step into my power.

I learned I am a spiritual being having a human experience.
I learned I am a teacher.
I learned I am a guide.
I learned I was being called to help others like myself.

Becoming

Becoming a life and executive coach was the most profound calling I have ever had. I have studied with the greatest and certified by the best. But my most profound and transformative lessons have come from my own journey of reinvention and self-discovery.

We are best positioned to help who we once were. It is my purpose to help visionary professionals and entrepreneurs awaken their purpose, and create a life of deep fulfillment and passion. I guide them to make sense of their true calling, and bring clarity, focus, and intention to their path forward.

I believe each of us has the power to create a life of freedom, abundance, and adventure. A life driven by our dreams, aligned with our deepest values, in service to our highest calling.

Join me for a journey of reinvention. Let’s discover your North Star.

Imagine…

feeling like you never work a day in your life. Waking up, eager to start your day, driven by the passion at the core of your soul. Imagine designing the very life you want—painting your vision and reinventing yourself to create it. Living wherever you want in the world—in freedom, abundance, and adventure.

Imagine…

forever abandoning the concept of a work week, where time is structured by windows of freedom on the weekend. Imagine transcending to a place where time is only perceived through the manifestation of your passion, and experiences of adventure.

Imagine…

leaving behind fear, resistance, and limiting beliefs, to fully live in creation and abundance. Embracing who you truly are on the deepest level, and in the darkest corner. Living in serenity, self-awareness, and mindful presence. Imagine witnessing the embodiment of light, love, and creativity that you truly are.

You can have this. All of it.

And you deserve to. We all do. This is living in alignment with your North Star. It’s time to discover what you love, and love what you do.
