The leader
Runs a team and is tired of being the steadiest person in every room. Wants a method for pressure, not more willpower.
Steady on purpose.A keynote lights a room for an hour. Coaching is for when one person, or one team, wants the change to hold. It starts with a phone call and no pitch.
Who it's for
Three people who call.
Almost nobody who works with Brian has ever jumped out of anything. They have something in common anyway.
The performer
Athlete, pilot, surgeon, founder. Performs in high-consequence moments and knows the mental side is the unfinished part of the training.
The last ten percent.The one at a turning point
Something ended, or is about to. Wants to walk through it awake instead of around it, with someone who has done the same.
Through, not around.How it works
Start with a conversation.
Three steps, in this order. Nobody is asked to commit before the second one.
- A phone callThirty minutes, free. What you're facing, what you've tried, and whether Brian is the right person. If he isn't, he'll say so and point you somewhere better.
- A first sessionNinety minutes on Zoom or in person. Where you are, what "better" would look like, and the first thing to practice. You leave with that, whether or not you continue.
- A rhythmWeekly or monthly sessions. Most people work with Brian for three to six months, then check in when a new door shows up.

In their own words.
What changed, described by the people it changed for.
One on one
Direct, practical, and yours.
Sessions are built around the thing in front of you this month: the decision, the performance, the relationship, the fear that keeps showing up in the same place. Brian brings thirty years of watching people meet fear well and badly, and a habit of saying the useful thing plainly.
Expect homework. Expect to practice between sessions. The session is where you learn the move; the week is where it becomes yours.

Walk with Brian
Meditation in motion.
Two or three hours on a trail in the pristine Maryland woods, at an easy pace, with the kind of conversations that only happen when nobody is looking at a screen. Part contemplative practice, part nature connection, part epiphany that changes the course of your life.
Families, friends and small teams are all welcome. Kids especially. Brian’s two sons have taught him skills and patience that make these walks work for just about anyone. When we step out into nature together, we cooperate in a way that deepens our connection with each other.
Nature is our true home, let's go there together.

Team programs
Make the keynote stick.
A keynote followed by working sessions with each team, built around one stress-test at a time, and one change at a time that you would be able to measure by the end. On site or virtual, over six to twelve weeks. Let’s keep the conversation going.
Good for teams that just heard Brian speak and want the ideas to survive intact through the next quarter.
WhereYour site, or virtual
ShapeKeynote plus three to six sessions
SizeOne team, up to forty people
OutcomeOne pressure, one measurable change
Questions people ask first
Before you call.
Is this therapy?
No. Brian is a coach and a teacher, and he studied contemplative psychology, but he is not a licensed therapist. If it becomes clear that someone needs one, he will say so and help them find a good one.
How fast does it work?
You will leave the first session with renewed passion and inspiration, and with many things to practice. Most participants feel a difference within a few weeks. Lasting change is a long-term project. You need to take the ball and run with it.
Can my company pay for this?
Usually, yes. Brian can invoice an organization directly and provide whatever your learning and development team needs for approval. If there are budget limitations, Brian will often work for scale. His desire is to help as many as possible, and reduced pricing is sometimes necessary.
What if I don't know what I need?
That is what the first phone call is for. Say that, and Brian will ask the questions.
Step one
Thirty minutes, no pitch.
Tell Brian a little about what is in front of you. He will write back with a couple of times to talk.
