Do You Feel Stuck?
You've done everything right. Built the career. Made good money. Built the life you were "supposed to" want.
Instead, you wake up Sunday night with dread. You can't remember the last time you felt excited—about your work, your relationships, or your direction. You've achieved all of it and still ask yourself: Is this all there is?
You know you're capable of more. You just don't know what—or how to get there without losing everything you've built.
That's stuck. And staying stuck comes at a cost.
The Cost of Staying Stuck
Are you experiencing any of these?
➤ You Dread Mondays More Than You Admit
Waking up Sunday night with that familiar knot in your stomach. Watching less qualified people get promoted while you stay stuck. Questioning your worth after a setback—replaying what went wrong instead of building what's next.
➤ You Don’t Recognize Yourself Anymore
Rebuilding your identity after divorce or when the kids leave home. Wondering who you are beyond the roles of spouse, parent, or job title that used to define you. Facing changes that shake the ground under you—where even simple decisions feel overwhelming because you've lost touch with what you actually want.
➤ You’ve Stopped Trusting Your Own Voice
Silencing yourself in meetings, relationships, and opportunities because it feels safer to stay quiet. Knowing deep down you're capable of more, but second-guessing every step. Watching momentum slip away while you wait for permission that's never coming.
➤ Here’s What Changes When You Get Unstuck
Staying stuck comes at a cost—your energy, your relationships, your opportunities, and your sense of self. But with the right support, these transitions don't have to break you. They can become the very thing that launches you into the life you were meant to live.
Meet Jeff
I’m a former tech executive turned personal growth coach, and my path to coaching began with my own setbacks. I’ve scaled startups to billion-dollar valuations, led high-performing teams, and also experienced the humbling reality of layoffs and career pivots. Those moments taught me that real success isn’t just about achievement—it’s about resilience, clarity, and growth.
That’s why today, as a self development coach and personal development consultant, I help people navigate the same kinds of transitions I’ve lived through. My approach blends 15+ years of leadership experience with certifications in Applied Positive Psychology (University of Pennsylvania) and Myers-Briggs assessments, so every session is rooted in both real-world insight and evidence-based tools.
I'm based in Phoenix and love serving my local community — including Scottsdale, Tempe, Chandler, Paradise Valley, Arcadia, and Biltmore, but I also work virtually with clients across the country. When I’m not coaching, you’ll usually find me hiking Arizona trails with my wife and our two labradoodles, or volunteering at Saint Vincent de Paul.
The 4-Pillar
Method:
My coaching framework combines four essential elements—Discover, Stabilize, Strategize, Execute. Miss one, and transformation stalls. Master all four, and you become unstoppable.
➤ Discover
We'll identify your Unique Genius and Ikigai—that rare sweet spot where what you love, what you're great at, what people will pay for, and what the world needs all come together.
→ You'll stop asking "what should I do with my life?" and start building the life you're actually meant to live.
➤ Stabilize
We'll assess your foundation—health, relationships, finances, mental wellbeing—and strengthen what's shaky BEFORE you make big moves, because you can't build a dream life on cracked ground.
→ You'll transform your life without sacrificing your health, draining your savings, or damaging your most important relationships.
➤ Strategize
We'll create your personalized roadmap with clear milestones and concrete next steps—customized to YOUR situation, not cookie-cutter advice—so you always know what to do next.
→ You'll stop spinning your wheels and second-guessing every decision. You'll know exactly what to do next—and why it matters.
➤ Execute
Together, we'll convert clarity into results through weekly 60-minute sessions, weekly accountability check-ins, and honest feedback—you don't just envision change, you create it.
→ You'll stop "working on" your transformation and start living it. In 3-6 months, you won't be planning the life you want—you'll be proof it's possible.
Which One Sounds Like You?
You're done pretending the job is fine → Sunday dread, dead-end politics, golden handcuffs. You'll walk away with a career plan that excites you and pays you — built around who you actually are, not who LinkedIn says you should be. Career Transition Coaching →
Your life just got turned upside down → Divorce. Layoff. The rug got pulled. We won't just help you cope — we'll help you use this moment as the launchpad you didn't know you needed. Life Coaching →
You've made it — and you feel nothing → Corner office, great salary, zero fulfillment. Everyone thinks you're thriving. You know you're coasting. We'll reconnect you with the version of yourself that used to be on fire. Leadership Coaching →
You're your own worst enemy and you know it → You've got the talent. You've got the track record. But you shrink in the rooms that matter most. We'll rewire that — permanently. Confidence Coaching →
As a personal growth coach and self development coach, I work with clients in-person in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Tempe, and Chandler — or virtually anywhere.
I Know What Stuck Feels Like
I've taken a company public. Led two successful company exits. I've built teams I loved leading and scaled companies from start up dreams to billion-dollar valuations.
I've also been fired. Laid off. Blindsided by betrayal and walked through divorce.
I'm not a coach who got a master's degree and decided to tell people how to live. I've been in the arena — at the top and at the bottom — and I built my way back both times.
That's why I don't do surface-level motivation. As a personal growth coach, every client I work with gets someone who has personally navigated the fear, the identity crisis, and the "what now?" — and came out with a playbook that actually works.
FAQs
-
Life coaching is a results-focused partnership that helps you gain clarity, confidence, and direction. Unlike therapy, which looks to the past, coaching is action-oriented and future-focused.
As a personal growth coach, I work with clients in Phoenix and virtually nationwide to navigate career transitions, relationship changes, and major life decisions. Coaching provides structure, accountability, and personalized strategies that turn stuck patterns into meaningful progress. -
Therapy helps you heal the past, while life coaching helps you design your future.
Therapy focuses on mental health and emotional healing. Life coaching is for people who are emotionally healthy but stuck—in their careers, relationships, or sense of direction—and ready to build what's next.
As a personal development coach, I help you see patterns you might not notice, clarify what you actually want, and create an action plan to get there.
-
Because it creates alignment between who you are and how you're living.
Most people know what they should do—they just don't do it. Life coaching gives you clarity on what you actually want, identifies what's holding you back, and provides accountability to follow through.
The results: Clients report greater job satisfaction, stronger relationships, increased confidence, and better alignment between their strengths and career. Many also experience salary increases and long-term resilience because they're finally building from solid ground.
-
Sessions are 60 minutes for individual sessions and 90 minutes for my 6-month Unstoppable Program, designed to fit busy lives, with flexible scheduling in-person or virtually.
We’ll focus on your priorities — whether that’s preparing for a career change, rebuilding after divorce, or gaining more confidence. Sessions follow a proven structure: clarify goals, assess reality, explore options, and create an action plan. Virtual sessions make it easy to work with me no matter where you’re located. -
Most clients work with me for 3–12 months, with noticeable results often in the first 4–6 sessions.
Short-term coaching provides clarity and direction, while long-term coaching helps build confidence and habits that last. Think of it like fitness: consistency creates transformation. -
The foundation comes first. You'll gain deep clarity on your unique strengths, values, and what you actually want—not what you think you should want.
From that clarity, we build alignment between who you are and how you're living. We adjust your career path, relationships, and daily choices to fit your core strengths.
What follows naturally: Increased confidence, stronger relationships, reduced stress, and career advancement—including salary increases or promotions—because you're finally operating from solid ground.
-
Both terms describe coaching focused on clarity, confidence, and purpose.
As a personal growth coach and personal development consultant, I help clients navigate life transitions, career changes, and confidence-building with strategies tailored to their goals. The difference is mostly in terminology — the outcome is the same: lasting personal development and progress. -
No — while I’m based in Phoenix, I work virtually with clients all across the U.S.
If you’re local, we can meet in person at my Biltmore office. If not, Zoom makes coaching just as effective. Many of my clients prefer virtual sessions for flexibility. -
If you feel stuck, uncertain, or ready for growth but don’t know where to start, coaching can help.
You don’t need to have all the answers before beginning. If you’re asking questions like “What’s next for me?”, coaching can provide the structure and support to find your next steps.
