MENTOR
The Technique
When I was eleven, my father pulled a book from the bookshelf in his den and handed it to me. He said, “Give this a read. It’s a lot of fun.” I put the book in my bag and got on the school bus. I looked around at all the other kids reading Spiderman comic books and playing games. I glanced at the book my pops gave me: "Sigmund Freud’s Interpretation of Dreams." Here are the facts: my father was a family therapist. My Mom was mentally ill. She drank and did drugs. She abused me. My Dad didn’t stop her. What he did do was give me endless self-help and psychoanalytical books to read because he knew I was in for a lifetime of hurt. He wasn’t wrong. Flash forward to today. I'm broken. I am. And I won't ever be fixed. I don't want to be. Why would I when that's makes me...me? I'm okay having fucked up parts of me. Today, I help people love their broken parts. My approach is based on my life, and the lives of hundreds I’ve worked with, and the great thinkers and leaders we've all read (and some we haven't).
The Process
The Process is like a root canal but with loads of laughing gas, so you won’t mind it much. I’m kidding. But, in some ways, I'm not. To truly change and embrace who we are and release all the shit that has been holding us back is work. We will sweat, yell, cry and lose some sleep but we will come out of it renewed. That I promise. It’s all about embracing a new emotional perspective, which can be taught and invariably involves a bit of a fight with our egos. Pain is the portal to change if given a proper framework and diligently applied to our lives in real-time. This work is for people who are open to living their lives in a new and radical way. The moment we touch down into the emotional awareness of knowing/not knowing who we are is when our life changes. When we love and accept the parts of us that are broken and never will be healed. All of our actions, and how we communicate and move about in the world, more often than not, follow suit. This work is about training ourselves to return to stasis, see the illusion of the ego as us, and reconnect the best we can to our true Selves.
Who This Is For
This work is for people who are open to living their lives in a new and radical way. Committing to understanding who we are is our only true goal. It’s ever-evolving. Anyone who thinks they know who they are is not the right person for this work since there is no endpoint. Integration is a life-long process for all the right reasons. The moment we touch down into the emotional awareness of knowing/not knowing who we are, our actions, and how we communicate and move about in the world, more often than not, follow suit. We will backslide and blame the world and people for how we feel. We’ll throw temper tantrums. We'll be nasty, cold, and calculated. That’s part of being human. This work is about training ourselves to return to stasis, see the illusion of the ego as us, and reconnect the best we can to our true Selves. This work is not for people who think they have it all figured out. That’s ego talking. I’m very clear and direct. I’m not a therapist or a life coach. They’re fantastic models, but I’m unique and radical. I know how the coaching models work and what the idea of mindset means, but this work is more holistic and visceral-emotional. I don’t hold back. I say it, and whether others' egos will listen or not is up to the person. I’m compassionate and kind, and I’m also here to remind you that your time is limited and that each moment matters. Are you fully living or wasting away? It’s always fascinating to see how it all plays out.

I had the privilege of participating in Michael's executive mentoring program, and the experience was nothing short of transformative. From our very first meeting, it was evident that Michael possesses an exceptional ability to understand what makes individuals "tick,” how they think and act in the world, and how to be more authentic and effective. He’s unparalleled as a writer and communications expert. His technique isn’t theoretical; he’s worked in the trenches and speaks from decades of direct experience. My mentoring relationship with him has been among the most influential of my career to date and has also led to a fundamental (and deeply positive) change after years of feeling so stagnant. I tried it all. Therapy, spiritual work, psychological study – Michael blasted through all of that, and my healing was seismic and fast. Working with him is a fantastic and worthwhile investment! His insights, shared right from the outset, have not only remained ingrained in my mind but have also had a profoundly positive impact on my professional and personal journey. His curated methodology fostered an engaging and highly constructive dialogue, which, in turn, played a pivotal role in inspiring me to establish my own business. Our weekly sessions, over the course of a year, were a cornerstone of my rapid growth. He can constantly change the lenses and channels to mentor you to new levels of superior leadership by providing guidance, support, and meaningful input. Michael's executive program goes beyond conventional mentorship. I wholeheartedly recommend his program to anyone seeking a transformative and impactful professional development experience unlike any other. He’s truly one of a kind.
