My team has felt more empowered and stepped up to find solutions and develop their own capabilities. I have also more clearly articulated my perspective in group settings with peers to help address issues directly rather than avoid potentially uncomfortable topics. This has moved our collective team to more meaningful discussions and solutions to improve our emerging culture. - Robert, VP @ Coca-Cola
Most individuals we work with are already successful; they have good ideas and make good efforts...yet still fall short of their vision. They are constrained by past circumstances or environmental factors. They find themselves feeling inauthentic, become frustrated, and struggle to bring people along. Yet still, there is a greater future for them...they just need some help to create that future.
DISCOVER CHOICE & EQUANIMITY
HERE - THERE - NOW
By bringing attention to what is and what is not, we are released from a state of wants and perceived needs, to one of choice.
By dissolving the prejudices and preferences that pervade our minds, we are released from a state of agitation to one of equanimity.
What are you like at your best? Change is hard. It’s not sexy. The past lingers, the present is ever-evolving, and the future remains uncertain. Yet, with a little help and clarity, we can create something better than we ever imagined. To realize we are something better than we ever imagined. If you’re looking for a motivational pep talk or the next flavor-of-the-week in “self-help”, this is probably not for you.
WE DEDICATE OURSELVES TO THOSE WHO ARE READY TO DO THE WORK.

鯉躍龍門 Koi Leaps Over the Dragon Gate...
is the Chinese/Japanese parable of a fish who believed in its own potential enough to swim against the current, despite the overwhelming disapproval and mockery of its peers, to leap over the dragon gate and become its true self - a Dragon!

Hello. My name is David and I work with people who are ready to address the habitual patterns, the negativity, and the challenges that stand in our way of living a more deliberate life. After over a decade of helping corporate leaders from the shop floor to the boardroom, I realized the same techniques I used with them can work for anyone...so long as they are ready to make the commitment required.
I am a board-certified coach with Postgraduate degrees in Leadership and a member of Marshall Goldsmith’s 100 Coaches. This background is paired with meditative traditions I’ve studied for over 20 years. I’ve worked with over 30,000 people in this capacity over the last 10-15 years, mostly within the Fortune 500. I primarily work with private clients, however, there is also a cohort option if personal coaching is beyond one’s ability to pay. Every year I also offer sponsorships to those who qualify. All options are a co-created journey providing you with space, clarity, and the utmost confidentiality, encouragement, and support - to be at your best. |

FAQ
You know when you’ve found the knowledge you were seeking because the desire that sparked your search had already given it a function and a shape. You wanted knowledge that would perform a desired function, and you wanted it to make sense, to fit in with what had worked with similar problems in the past. When you’ve encountered something that, when put to the test, meets both specifications—the function and the fit—you know that that’s what you wanted.” - Thanissaro Bhikku
