Coaching

You know exactly what to do. Something still feels off.

I coach STEM professionals and high-performing thinkers who have solved harder problems than this one, and who notice that their usual tools don't work on the one problem left: themselves. My coaching practice is called The Hormetic Path.

Who I work with

Scientists, clinicians, engineers, lab directors and technical leaders. On paper, the record is strong. Underneath, decisions feel heavier than they should, and the strategies that built the career aren't building the next part of life.

You think for a living and want to understand how something works before you trust it.
Your body is telling you something your schedule has no room for.
Who you are has outgrown the role you're in.
You want an honest diagnosis, not motivation.

Coaching isn't therapy. If you need mental-health care, I'll say so plainly and help you find it.

Why "hormetic"

Hormesis is a principle from biology: a measured dose of stress makes a living system stronger. Too little and nothing changes. Too much and the system breaks. Good coaching works the same way: enough challenge to grow, and enough support to stay steady.

The vision behind The Hormetic Path is people living in step with the Earth and with each other, moving from isolation to self-empowerment. The mission is practical: to help people, especially leaders, go from understanding themselves to living as themselves.

Two foundations

Mental Agility

Learning to steady your nervous system, stay present, and adapt under pressure instead of just pushing through.

Food is Medicine

What you eat shapes your energy, mood and focus. We treat it as information, not a diet.

Five phases

Each phase has a clear purpose and a clear limit.

Awareness — Notice the patterns, inner critics and triggers running in the background.
Noticing alone isn't change.

Regulation — Build a steadier response to stress through short daily mental-fitness practice.
This isn't about pushing feelings down. It's about making them readable.

Embodiment — Bring food, movement and time outdoors in line with how you want to feel and work.
The body is something to listen to, not a project to fix.

Rewiring — Loosen old beliefs about who you are, using structured coaching and tools from hypnotherapy.
Identity shifts through what you do over time, not in a single session.

Expansion — Line up your actions with what matters to you, and lead yourself with discipline.
Structure comes first, so growth has something to stand on.

How we work together

It starts with a free 50-minute consultation call. It's a diagnosis, not a sales pitch. We look at where you are, what feels out of line, and whether this work is the right fit. If it isn't, I'll tell you.

Coaching is one-to-one and shaped around your life. Each session follows the same pattern: we begin with about ten minutes of grounding, such as breathing practice, then find where you are, do the work, and close with one thing you carry forward. Between sessions, you use the Positive Intelligence app to build mental fitness in a few minutes a day.

Coaching packages

Every package starts with a free 50-minute consultation call. If we agree it's a good fit, you choose the depth of work you're ready for. Prices are listed here because you should know what you're signing up for before we talk. All sessions are held online by video call.

The program

Self-paced or scheduled?

Recalibrating the Next Chapter is a 12-week online program you can work through on your own. The same rigor you've aimed at every problem but this one, turned on yourself. Here's how it compares with one-to-one coaching.

12-week online program

How it works: Self-paced: video lessons, workbook, practical tools
Length: 12 weeks
When: Available 24/7, on your own time
Shaped around you: One clear path for everyone
Contact with me: Group calls
Price: See current price →
Best for: People who want to do the work on their own time, anytime

One-to-one coaching

How it works: Scheduled: private video sessions with me
Length: 3 or 6 months
When: Every two weeks, at times we set together
Shaped around you: Built around your situation
Contact with me: Direct sessions, plus email support
Price: $3,300 or $5,500
Best for: People who want a guide for deeper or more personal work

You can also do both. The program stands on its own, and coaching can go deeper into what it brings up.

Questions

How is coaching different from therapy?
Coaching looks forward and assumes you're managing day to day. If you need mental-health care, I'll say so clearly.

Do I need to know what I want before we start?
No. You need a working hypothesis and a willingness to look at the evidence honestly. The rest we work out together.

Can I take the program and work with you one-to-one?
Yes. The program stands on its own, and coaching can go deeper into what it brings up.
