Here's What I'm About
I'm glad you found your way here.Â
If you’ll forgive a little self-indulgence, I’ll do my best to give you a clear sense of who I am and how I work.
After years of struggle (including sexual trauma, emotional abuse, and a coping mechanism of high-performance), I learned how to use the mind not as an escape hatch but as a doorway—deepening into emotions, sensations, and the subtle textures of experience as an access point to expanded awareness.
Over time I’ve cultivated the ability to articulate this inner landscape with clarity, precision, and a kind of artistic attunement. My work isn’t about promoting my own ideas or beliefs. It’s about helping you access your own inner intelligence and reflecting it back in ways that are skillful, honest, and deeply grounded.
In essence, I help people renegotiate their relationship with their immediate experience, and from there, discover new possibilities for how they can live, feel, relate, and create.
This process goes deep. Along the way we inevitably bridge worlds—the mystical and the practical, the personal and the impersonal, the profound and the mundane, the esoteric and the embodied.
I love this work because I’m endlessly curious about what it means to be human, what it means to be alive, and what this strange situation called “reality” actually is. And I trust that your direct experience is the ultimate teacher.
My background spans a wide range of disciplines, including:
-
Transformational therapeutics
-
Body-centered psychotherapy
-
Esoteric mysticism
-
Non-ordinary states of consciousness
-
Sexuality and erotic embodiment
-
Ritual and ceremony
-
…and a great deal more.
Rigid adherence to any single system feels far too limiting for the complexity of human experience. Instead, I work creatively and emergently—meeting you exactly where you are.
OK… but what does any of that actually mean?
At the core of most human struggles is disconnection—from the body, from emotion, from needs and desires, from boundaries, from other people, from nature, or from whatever you call the larger intelligence moving through this world.
When we disconnect from these fundamental aspects of life, we start to drift into states of dis-ease—loneliness, depression, anxiety, frustration, exhaustion. And from there, we fall into the coping patterns we already know all too well.
When we are disconnected from these fundamental aspects of life, we begin to spiral into various forms of dis-ease - loneliness, depression, exhaustion, anxiety, frustration, hopelessness etc. - and all our habitual coping mechanisms - addictions, patterns, reactions, etc.
Sometimes the disconnect happens subtly.
Sometimes it erupts like a volcano.
Either way: this isn’t a new idea. You’ve lived it. We all have.
Through over a decade of study, practice, and working with thousands of clients, here is the core truth I’ve come to:
___
Life is Intelligent
(including our reactions to it)
Every experience we face—pleasant, painful, confusing—is an invitation into a deeper remembrance of who we actually are. Life isn’t random. It’s communicative.
When we learn to listen to emotions, thoughts, and bodily signals, we stop fighting them and start working with them.
This lets us harvest the wisdom inside every experience, integrate it, and become conscious participants in our own evolution.
To me, that is the real path: learning how to receive and respond to life with increasing skillfulness, honesty, and awareness.
And I’m unapologetically in love with this process.
___
Everyone is Unique
(this isn't just a bumper-sticker)
Â
Every person has a distinct constellation of traits, wounds, gifts, and patterns. So the work must be tailored.
Some people struggle to feel. Others struggle to express. Some are trapped in their minds; others in their relationships; others in long-standing protective strategies. The variety is endless—and that’s exactly why the path must be individualized.
Together, we explore your specific terrain with curiosity, precision, and creativity. And as you develop the tools to navigate your own inner and outer world, life shifts from being something to survive into something to play with.

This is the Infinite Game.

All the amazing ways we can work together
Mens Retreats
In-person rites of passage into embodied eroticism, mature masculinity and brotherhood
Â
These retreats center on the reclamation of Eros—not just sexual energy, but the intelligent life-force that animates vitality, truth, desire, purpose, creativity, and deep relational presence.
When Eros is suppressed or distorted, the masculine collapses into numbness, over-performance, or fragmentation.
When Eros is awakened and integrated, a man becomes flooded with creative vitality and aliveness.
This work is an initiatory journey into that living current. Through two primary pathways—mythopoetics (myth, story, archetype, ritual) and body-centered therapeutics (breathwork, somatic inquiry, parts work, embodiment, and emotional integration)—we explore how Eros moves through the body, psyche, and soul.
Together, we uncover the patterns that choke off your vitality, the shadowed places where your deeper instincts are hiding, and the archetypal energies longing to be embodied with clarity and integrity. In the company of honest, courageous men, you learn to meet yourself without posturing, defend nothing, reveal what’s true, and step into a grounded, sovereign masculinity rooted in presence.
If you feel the pull to reconnect with your aliveness—to live from the deep source rather than the surface script—this is where that journey begins.
Full Spectrum Coaching &
Online Programs
Unlock and unleash your limitless potential by learning to skillfully navigate the full spectrum of Consciousness
Â
My approach to coaching is a synthesis of the most effective tools of Self-Mastery I’ve encountered—drawing from ancient wisdom traditions, modern therapeutic sciences, and experiential practices from around the world. I work at the intersection of consciousness, somatics, and archetypal psychology, helping you access the deeper intelligence already alive within you.
In our work together—whether through intimate 1-on-1 coaching, my personal men’s program The Impeccable Man Master Class, or the initiatory container of The Deep Masculine—you receive personalized guidance in both the principles of consciousness and the powerful inner technologies you already possess. This creates the conditions for rapid, grounded, meaningful transformation.
As you learn to navigate the full spectrum of human experience with increasing skill, honesty, and precision, the old inherited patterns begin to loosen; the unconscious strategies that once defined your identity start to dissolve. You reconnect with vitality, clarity, integrity, and the deeper currents of purpose that have been waiting beneath the surface.
This work is ultimately about returning to wholeness—stepping into a life that feels aligned, relationally awake, creatively charged, and outrageously fulfilling. If you’re ready for a path that is rigorous, deeply honest, and genuinely transformative, this is where that journey begins.
NĹ«ma Breathwork is a profound multidisciplinary approach to healing that weaves together conscious connected breathing, deep somatic unwinding, mindful inquiry, and the therapeutic resonance of sound. Rooted in both ancient wisdom and contemporary therapeutic practice, it supports the body-mind in releasing tension, integrating unresolved experiences, and reconnecting with its inherent intelligence.
This work is a collaborative process. Through the breath, you enter non-ordinary states of consciousness where the body can surface what it’s been holding, the psyche can reveal protective patterns, and long-suppressed material can finally be metabolized. Somatic explorations and subtle movement help unwind the layers where stress, fear, memory, and emotion have been stored, while guided inquiry brings clarity and coherence to what arises. Sound therapy provides an additional layer of nervous system support, helping the whole system reorganize toward balance.
Nūma Breathwork opens the doorway to the full continuum of human experience—physical, emotional, mental, archetypal, and transpersonal—while offering a grounded, skillful path for resolving suffering and reclaiming vitality. It is a powerful way to reconnect with your inner world, restore the natural flow of your energy, and return to a state of greater freedom, clarity, and wholeness.
