NICE TO MEET YOU

This is my story

As a former professional baseball player in Austria’s Bundesliga (first league) and Division-1 baseball player in the United States, I realized that peak performance requires a dominant “inner game” - but the way I learned this was unexpected.

You see, I had an incredible career and, on paper, I had it all. I was working with a Fortune 500 company and at the top of my game. I had a fantastic job, a good salary, working with great people - but internally, I was miserable. I was bored, out of shape and things weren’t great at home because I was so unhappy at work. I literally felt like I was settling when there was much more to achieve (even my nice salary could not make it better). 

I knew I was made for more

Couple that with the fact that I KNEW (deep into the deepest part of my soul) that there was something bigger that I could do, that I should be doing.  In my career, I was always seeking the “next thing” and nothing felt like enough. I felt stuck and I knew that my overall potential was un-tapped and under-utilized. And this began what led me here today…one decision that changed everything.

You see, I have always loved personal and leadership development and had learned a ton.  And guess what, I finally decided to take action on all the things I learned. I took responsibility for myself and realized that I was the one holding myself back from having the life I truly desired. 

I finally had an epiphany during my career when I realized that if I want to discover what is truly possible, with my career, relationships, spiritually...in every area of life...that it was time to start digging in and re-training my brain and mindset. I realized that I could leverage all the mental toughness training I had as an athlete. I discovered that it was my mindset that was holding me back. 

Our Winning Methodology

Thus began my deep dive into mental toughness and mindset, all focused on how I become a GREAT leader, both at work and home.  I'm telling you now, and I am proof along with hundreds of clients I have worked with, that this was the game changer for me.  Not only has my business grown substantially (such as doubling in $ revenue last year), I'm showing up a better husband and father as well.  It all started with my mindset.

And now that's what I get to teach my clients!  I built my methodology from scratch. I have tested everything I teach and coach on today, weeding out what works and what doesn’t. I’ve extensively studied and teach the neuroscience behind the concepts as well (shifting them from woo-woo to real), and take great pride in this.  To this day, I continue my personal quest for learning and growth, and then I get to turn around and teach you.

Fast forward 10 years, I have been fortunate now to do keynote speaking, 1-on-1 coaching, workshops, run mastermind groups, and now the High Performance Leadership Program with amazing leaders, companies and brands, including Marsh McLennan, Western Union, Hitachi, Brown & Brown Insurance, Lockton, First Onsite, CRESA, Empower Retirement, Mutual of Omaha, and many others.  If you're ready to grow your Leadership and Mental Toughness skills...we are here to help!  Let's roll!
