Statement of Belief.
​The most painful moments in our lives are the greatest opportunities for personal growth and development. The moments where our utmost best fails and we are left bewildered and disoriented. It is from this place that we can begin to give up our ‘best’ and start to do different. This is the point where we stop complaining about how others or the circumstances did not allow us to win, and we take full responsibility for ourselves and begin to make a win out of what we have; working with our environment instead of wailing against it. I specialize in helping people move from “best” to different.

Who am I
​From an early age I have always had a deep interest in understanding how things work. This expressed itself in school by my graduation from the University of Calgary with a degree in Biological Sciences while also having conducted cancer research and being publish in a paper. This pursuit then pivoted to the arena of business and entrepreneurship when I joined my wife in her landscaping business and built out a new construction division in it that provides over a half a million dollars of services annually.
How do I get there from the top?

1:1 Coaching
Either in person or online. You will get an opportunity to discuss where you are getting stuck and what problems you are coming up against that you can’t seem to get around. Sessions are typically one hour in person and the cost covers my preparation time and final note taking and any homework assigning or correspondence after the in person time is concluded. In the session you can expect me to be an objective observer that will ask questions of the situation or of you, or I will initiate different tactics of exposing blind spots such as role-play. What you will not get is someone who will be making suggestions or offering solutions. My definition of coaching is someone who helps you see that there is more going on than what you are seeing. From there, you get to decide what solutions you want to deploy.

Entry Cohort Training
This program will offer a simple introduction to Bowen Family Systems Theory concepts that I have used to navigate difficulties in my marriage, family and business. The basic concepts to be addressed are: differentiation of self, relational triangles, and solid/pseudo self.

Advanced Cohort Training
After the entry cohort training is complete, this training offers a more in- depth view of the entry concepts plus new ones not discussed. The goal of this training is intentional application of concepts learned. There is an expectation of the participants to engage more fully with the program, bring real issues to the table in group discussion and to do the homework assignments prior to each training date. The advanced concepts to be addressed are: multi-family generational process, family emotional process, social process, cutoff, sibling position and the family projection process. The emphasis on family process here stands on the belief that what happens in our families growing up has a huge impact on how we see the world. If we can understand this, then we have an opportunity to use the strengths available to us, as well as offset or better navigate the weaknesses that usual hide in our blind spots (what we perceive as “normal”).
