Apply for a Discovery Call

Before you apply


This page exists to slow things down, not speed them up.

If you’ve read the coaching page and feel a clear pull toward this work, the next step is a discovery call. That call is a real conversation, not a sales pitch. It’s an opportunity for you to experience what it’s like to work with me, and for both of us to decide whether continuing makes sense.

Before you apply, it’s important to be honest with yourself about what you’re looking for and what you’re ready for.

What this call is

The discovery call is a 60-minute coaching conversation, typically held over Zoom (phone is also available if needed).

My goal on the call is to understand where you are, what’s actually going on beneath the surface, and to offer perspective, encouragement, and next steps that help restore movement and agency.

If, by the end of the call, it feels like working together would be valuable, we’ll briefly talk about what that could look like. If not, you’ll still leave with clarity and something useful to take forward.

What this call is not

This is not a place to vent without responsibility.

It’s not a place to get scripts, tactics, or advice designed to change someone else.

And it’s not an audition where good intentions alone are enough.

Real change, in marriage, fatherhood, mission, faith, or identity, requires more than wanting things to be different. It requires willingness to engage, to invest, and to take responsibility for yourself.

Who should apply

You should apply if you:

  • Are serious about changing how you relate to yourself and your life
  • Are willing to be challenged, not just supported
  • Understand that clarity and growth often involve discomfort
  • Are prepared to invest time, energy, and money if the fit is right
  • Are open to an ongoing coaching relationship, not a single conversation

Most men I work with are navigating a real transition, moving out of a stuck or limited way of living and into a more grounded, responsible, and self-led season of life.

Who should not apply

Please do not apply if you are primarily looking for relief, reassurance, or someone to fix a situation for you.

This is also not a good fit if you are waiting for someone else to change, or if you are unwilling or unable to commit to at least several weeks of focused work.

If you’re not in a position to make a meaningful financial investment in yourself right now, it would be kinder to start elsewhere. In the same way a man finds a way to repair a vehicle or a furnace when it matters, this work requires treating your life and relationships with that same level of seriousness.

For men who want to begin more gradually, or who need more time to orient themselves, my community or courses are often a better place to start.

How applications are handled

This application helps me understand where you are and whether a discovery call is likely to be a good use of time for both of us.

I do not accept every application. In some cases, I may recommend a different starting point or suggest waiting until the timing is better.

If your application is a good fit, you’ll be invited to schedule a discovery call. If not, you’ll hear back from me with alternative options or guidance.
