It’s time to do something different.
High-altitude strategy meets intentional life design.
I’m a strategic advisor, lawyer, and author advising leading organizations on business strategy, while helping individuals drop the rigid scripts, quiet the internal judgment, and live with intention and confidence. My book You’re Where the Party Is is coming this December!

Modern Ambition and Finding Your Own Rhythm
The beat is an expectation of the pace and intensity at which you’ll move. The day transitions into a series of regularly scheduled tasks from morning school bells to “lights out.” Each of these moments in life represents a beat, interconnected through a string of time, flowing at a pace and intensity that you probably didn’t choose. A rhythm has been thrust upon you.
When Your Values Collide
I relished being a business-minded, analytical, problem-solving professional, but I also longed to be a successful creative artist. It felt as if each side was preventing me from moving full speed ahead in those respective directions. Forging ahead with one side didn’t feel right when it would cause me to abandon the other. What was my career without the balancing effect of music and creativity?
When A Bull Enters A China Shop
A bull entered the china shop, and things began to break. Delicate porcelain plates perched high against the walls. Dainty teacups rested in blue, velvet boxes. Everything had been carefully selected and arranged. But customers had stopped buying, and the shop had lost its way. So, the owners made a call that changed everything.
The Recognition Gap
Criticism can make you feel like you're failing when you might be flourishing. Criticism is one person's point of view. Keep searching for the truth.
I’m Looking For Signs Of Life
I'm looking for signs of life in people and places that have stopped believing much can change. Sometimes those signs are buried beneath disappointment, fear, criticism, uncertainty, regret, or a lack of direction. Sometimes people mistake those experiences for the end of the story. Here’s the new beginning.
Not Everything Has to Work Out
You may find yourself sprinting to the door. Or wishing for more time. But people suffer more than necessary when they expect everything to work out. They expect the extra effort to be rewarded. The loyalty to be reciprocated. The sacrifice to make sense. And when it doesn't, they wonder if it was all for nothing.
Seeking A Net Positive Life
“Profit for a company is like oxygen for a person. If you don’t have enough of it, you’re out of the game. But if you think your life is about breathing, you’re really missing something.”
- Peter Drucker
Even when things haven’t gone as planned, a better day is coming.
