how it works
most business problems aren't strategy problems
You've read the books. Hired the consultants. Built the systems.
But something still feels broken.
The business fights itself. The numbers don't tell the truth. The team isn't aligned.
And you're exhausted, even when things look good on paper.
That's because the real problem isn't strategy.
It's coherence.
When the business is fighting itself, and so are you, no framework fixes it.
private work: 90 days to what others promise in years
Most approaches take 2+ years and teach the same process to everyone.
I get to the core in 90 days because I investigate what's really broken in your business and in you.
And every engagement is with me personally. Not someone I trained. Not a template.
Just you and me, finding the truth and fixing what matters.
The Clarity Intensive: $50,000
Weeks 1-2: Investigation
I go deep into your business and your story. Financials, operations, team dynamics, and you. Not surface level. The truth.
Week 3: Truth Session (3 hours)
I show you what I found. What's broken, what's fighting itself, and why. Complete clarity. A custom roadmap.
Weeks 4-12: Momentum (60 days)
We implement together. Direct support. Real progress. By day 90, you're not stuck anymore.
Payment plans are flexible to your business situation.
All engagements are private and confidential. Just you and me.
what comes next: the partnership (optional)
Private Work Partnership: $40,000/year
After the intensive, most clients choose to continue. The Partnership keeps momentum from fading.
What's included:
4 quarterly sessions (4-hour deep dive + lunch to talk about life, not just business)
Monthly momentum calls (60 minutes to stay connected between sessions)
Direct access when critical decisions arise
This isn't hand-holding. It's partnership.
why this is different
There are two common paths business owners take when they know something needs to change:
Cookie-cutter approaches promise transformation through frameworks. They require 2-year commitments, teach the same process to everyone, and use trained facilitators following a script. They teach process and hope it works.
Private Work is investigation, not facilitation. I spend 90 days finding what's actually broken—in your business and in you—then we fix it together. This is direct work with me, not a team. Custom, not templated.
They give you a system and hope it fits.
I find what's broken and we fix it.
