In this video and reflection, I invite heart-led leaders to reconnect with the most powerful tool they’ve got, their own voice.

If you landed here, it’s likely because you’re facing what I call “a mountain.” A seemingly insurmountable obstacle in the way of you becoming your best self. You’ve probably tried it all. The courses, the coaches, the plant medicine, and yet… here you are. How annoying, right?

Spoiler alert: I’m typically the guy people like you come to when all the shortcuts fail. In this video, you’ll get my raw storytelling and a lived metaphor from a near-death mountain climb. I reveal how disconnection from self-expression can silently sabotage clarity, confidence, and impact. And why you should care.
