Business Coach

SKYE Technologies

I founded SKYE Technologies in 2006 to address the tech needs of small businesses in the area. What started as a "one man show" evolved over a 15 year period before selling the company.

As true partner for our clients, we aligned our business interests with theirs. This model enabled us to put technology to good use in a way that helped them grow and succeed. We prided ourselves on starting and maintaining mutually beneficial relationships.

As the founder, my personal experience included:

- Providing strategic technology consulting and advice for both existing and potential clients
- Developing new business through networking, advertising and referrals
- Maintaining strong relationships with existing clients
- Ensuring customer satisfaction and responsiveness to feedback
- Creating and evolving internal processes to increase efficiency
- Researching new technologies and examining their benefits/drawbacks as they pertain to business

In July 2021 we announced the sale of SKYE Technologies to a larger regional firm.

Dang.

Married 39 years. Four kids.
27 years in HS coaching, 32 years in education.
Relationships built with hundreds of athletes, moms, and dads.

I witness moms and dads make the powerful shift from parenting to coaching.

Transformational Coach

Drawing on the skills developed over three decades of experience as a teacher and coach, I help people create high performance habits and experience transformations in life arenas of their choosing!

A “strong-willed” teen athlete/performer won’t be argued into respect.

Nicole Runyon (psychotherapist + author + mom) shoots straight here: respect isn’t automatic simply “because you’re the parent.” 

You earn it by doing the hard, relationship work!
Especially in the messy middle of conflict. 

Your teen athlete’s job is to follow the rules. 
Your job is to protect the connection that makes the rules agreeable.

What's your game plan? 
Are you trying to win…or focusing on building the trust that make the "Boundary No's” land?

High-achieving parents call us when their teen athlete’s confidence is dropping | Certified High Performance Coaches™

This is so stooopid. I can't believe I did this. 

I'm incognito to protect my reputation.
My grandson said, "Pops, we don't do this anymore."

Well (or welp), I did. 
Yes, I made a 6/7 video. 

Shuffling through a drawer of old race memorabilia last night I came across this bib from the 2018 Northwest Passage (Ragnar Relay Series). 

Talk about stooopidity. Sign up for one (or 17) of these nutjob events!

As I looked at it, and in the split second before I recalled the crazy, fun, memories of that weekend, those stooopid numbers leaped off the bib and hit me in the face. 6/7. I know, I know. Stooopid. 

But it made me think about decision-making.
Big ones, small ones, life changing ones.
Inconsequential ones. 

Sometimes you just gotta jump.
Sure, check the water depth.
Sure, check the wind.

But, for the love of Pete (c'mon Raiders, go get John Harbaugh!), make a decision or you'll never know if the 6 or the 7 was right!!

Here's to all of us making some stooopid and bold decisions in 2026! 🙌

“Listen...I’ll cheer for my team and you cheer for yours.”  Ooof...

Two dads.
Raised voices. 
Red, flushed faces.
The whole gym hushes. 
Even the players take a glance.
This was a  recent IRL observation of mine in the stands during a JV boys basketball game near where I live. The overzealous fathers simmered down--thankfully--but only after the two moms quietly scolded them. Yea, moms!

Here's another one. Sophomore game, low attendance, fairly quiet gym.
Angry dad stood up and full WWE-challenged a ref to a “let's go right now!" moment in broad daylight! Wow. 

It was an eyebrow raising, head shaking, "are you serious moment?" for me. 
The “let's go right now!" obviously was NOT a lunch invite. And FWIW, based on appearances, the guy wouldn’t be able to fight his way out of a wet paper bag. So, there's that. 

Here are a few questions to ask 𝙗𝙚𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙚 the game, 𝙗𝙚𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙚 the competition, and definitely 𝙗𝙚𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙚 hitting the Buffoon Button in the heat of the moment (adapt for your circumstances):

-𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘪𝘴 𝘮𝘺 𝘴𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘳 𝘥𝘢𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘨𝘢𝘮𝘦?
-𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘥𝘪𝘥 𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘳 𝘴𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘱𝘰𝘳𝘵?
-𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘪𝘴 𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘳 𝘴𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘰𝘥𝘢𝘺?
-𝘐𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘩𝘪𝘮 𝘰𝘳 𝘩𝘦𝘳?
-𝘖𝘳 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵...𝘮𝘦?

𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘲𝘶𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘭𝘺, 𝘸𝘩𝘺 𝘢𝘮 𝘐 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘰𝘥𝘢𝘺 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘴?

If you make it about you, you're modeling the exact behavior you don’t want from your teen. 

Your teens are on the court or field or stage for a short time, but you as a mom or dad are "on" 24/7/365. Yep, they're "watching" you. As an ambitious, high achieving Parental Unit, be your best self. Most parents get it right.
Competitive and classy. 
Hungry and humble. 

<𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗠𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗩𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀>

What's the most "eyebrow raising, oh my, are you serious?" parental outburst at a game/competition you have witnessed in real life? 
C'mon, let's hear it! 



𝐂h𝐚l𝐥e𝐧g𝐞 𝐲o𝐮r t𝐡i𝐧k𝐢n𝐠 𝐚n𝐝 𝐠e𝐭 𝐭o k𝐧o𝐰 𝐮s b𝐲 𝐭u𝐧i𝐧g i𝐧t𝐨 𝚃𝚑𝚎 𝚂𝚃𝙾𝙿 𝙿𝙰𝚁𝙴𝙽𝚃𝙸𝙽𝙶 & 𝚂𝚃𝙰𝚁𝚃 𝙲𝙾𝙰𝙲𝙷𝙸𝙽𝙶 𝙿𝚘𝚍𝚌𝚊𝚜𝚝 𝚘𝚗 𝚈𝚘𝚞𝚃𝚞𝚋𝚎, 𝙰𝚙𝚙𝚕𝚎 𝙿𝚘𝚍𝚌𝚊𝚜𝚝𝚜, 𝚘𝚛 𝚂𝚙𝚘𝚝𝚒𝚏𝚢!

High achieving parents: Ever notice how your good intentions quietly turn into near crushing pressure?

It often starts with:
“I just want them to have what I didn’t.”

But when our vision overtakes 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘰𝘸𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘱, high-performing teens start to disengage. Nothing too big at first. But it slowly grows...

-Drive fades and flickers.
-Tension builds and sticks around. Always.
-The journey no longer feels like their creation.

And that is when and where your connection starts weakening and they stop listening to your well-intentioned wisdom! (Even if they throw in a few head nods!).

In our unique coaching model, we help you lead with clarity—not control—while staying in your critical role as a parent that only YOU can fulfill!

Why all of this? Is it really necessary? 
Um, yep. 
𝘉𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥𝘯’𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘰𝘶𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘪𝘳 𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘢𝘤𝘩. 
Did you sign up for that? Most likely that is a resounding "NO!"
That’s where we come in.

Because even in the best relationships, most teens resist being lectured by their parents when it comes to the mental game. There's a better way.

Are you a terrible history teacher... 

when it comes to your parent/teen athlete or performer conversations?! 

In our latest episode (#132) on The 𝘚𝘛𝘖𝘗 𝘗𝘈𝘙𝘌𝘕𝘛𝘐𝘕𝘎 & 𝘚𝘛𝘈𝘙𝘛 𝘊𝘖𝘈𝘊𝘏𝘐𝘕𝘎 Podcast, Nate Crandall and I hit on why going full History Teacher mode is a sure fire way to lose your teen. Ugh. There is a better way! 

We also explore the reason why high achieving parents should step back and allow an outside voice to guide your teen's mindset. 𝘐𝘵'𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘥𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨; 𝘪𝘵'𝘴 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 𝘴𝘢𝘧𝘦 𝘴𝘱𝘢𝘤𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘨𝘳𝘰𝘸𝘵𝘩.

Passion without guidance can do more harm than good.

Especially when successful, go-getter parents struggle to connect with their high-achieving teen athletes and performers.

Nate Crandall and I, as parents who have made every mistake in the book, have learned the hard way (so you don't have to) that the very high-performance principles that work in the boardroom also transform your “locker room” moments at home. 

Seems easy, right? 
Well, it may be simple. 
But it's not always "easy." 

In a few weeks we begin another round of our unique 𝗣𝗥𝗜𝗠𝗘 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝗠𝗜𝗡𝗗 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 for teen athletes/performers. It includes 2 very brief, but powerful Parent sessions for you. Specifically designed to prep and prime 𝘺𝘰𝘶 to help your teen soar. Interested? DM me for details.

High-achieving parents know the pressure to get everything 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵...
At work 𝘢𝘯𝘥 at home. 

But when things go sideways, do you capture the opportunity for growth or totally bumble, stumble, and then fumble the ball (hey, it's football playoof time)?!

𝙂𝙚𝙩 𝙘𝙪𝙧𝙞𝙤𝙪𝙨, not critical. 𝘽𝙚 𝙨𝙥𝙚𝙘𝙞𝙛𝙞𝙘, not emotional. 
With 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 and/or with your superstar teen athlete/performer.

On 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙎𝙏𝙊𝙋 𝙋𝘼𝙍𝙀𝙉𝙏𝙄𝙉𝙂 & 𝙎𝙏𝘼𝙍𝙏 𝘾𝙊𝘼𝘾𝙃𝙄𝙉𝙂 𝙋𝙤𝙙𝙘𝙖𝙨𝙩, Nate Crandall and I unpack how shifting your mindset and approach will strengthen connection—𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘯𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘥𝘳𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘵𝘦𝘦𝘯’𝘴 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦. 

And we do it in commuter-friendly, bite size episodes because we know you're crazy busy. Listen on 1.5 speed and you'll digest our Eps before you get cut off in traffic for the 3rd time. Installment #130, exploring one angle of Blind Spots (pun fully intended), just dropped today!

We’re not Italian chefs.


So no, Episode #117 isn’t about "spaghetti alla pity party" or "fettuccine regret-o" (dad/grandpa joke apologies).

But "𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙪𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙘 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙮?" That IS our jam.

Ever had that kitchen convo after your teen athlete or performer's tough loss or disappointing-to-them (and maybe you?) performance? We're talking the one where you meant to be helpful but somehow made it worse?
Yeah…same. 
Guilty. 

In this episode of The STOP PARENTING & START COACHING Podcast, Nate and I share a story about Finn. It's one that hits way too close to home for us and anyone raising a high-achieving teen athlete or performer. It’s the kind of moment every sports or performance mom and dad lives through 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮. 

It goes something like this (imagine the heat of the kitchen moment so to speak):

-Pointing fingers at their teammates.
-An immediate review of the coach's decisions.
OK, we're gonna stop right there because this may set off the smoke alarm!  

We're a couple of dads, HS basketball coaches, sport psych nerds, and 𝘊𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘧𝘪𝘦𝘥 𝘏𝘪𝘨𝘩 𝘗𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘊𝘰𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘴™ 𝙬𝙝𝙤’𝙫𝙚 𝙗𝙤𝙩𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙙 𝙞𝙩 𝙖𝙡𝙡. We've said the wrong things to our own teens, to our own players, and yes, even to ourselves. 

Yep, we've essentially burned the proverbial linguini to a blackened crisp and now we help others avoid the same debacles!!

This episode is a recipe of sorts that includes the funny, the real, and a kitchen drawer full of a practical tools to 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘢𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘪𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘴 𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵.

Offseason is ideal. In-season still works. Small by design (10 max) so we can coach at a premium level and get to know your teen while they also learn from peers.

-6 teen sessions -- intense, deep work with your son or daughter
-Post/parent session -- a quick evaluation of your teen’s journey

𝗖𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 + 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 + 𝗠𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗺.

What we do:
-We coach your teen to build “pressure skills”: emotional regulation, focus control, and confidence creating habits--𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙥𝙖𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙩'𝙨 𝙬𝙞𝙨𝙝
-We give you minimal language and structure that reduces friction and builds connection--𝙠𝙚𝙚𝙥𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙞𝙩 𝙨𝙞𝙢𝙥𝙡𝙚

🎶And another one gone. And another one gone. Another one bites the dust, yeah!🎶

Every year, millions, maybe billions, charge into January with fresh goals and big dreams. We're sprinting on to the field like a crazed linebacker ready to wreak havoc and then by week two? Most are already fading.

The issue isn’t the goals. It isn't even the nifty and neat fantastic goal setting method you've heard about from your annoying personal development friends (guilty as charged).

One of the best, most comprehensive examinations of the Transfer Portal. Must read for anyone asking themselves "what in the wide and wild west world of college sports is going on?!" Excellent work Justin Fleming! Thank you.

Founder + CEO @ myPerforma | Transforming Athlete Performance and Experience

More than 3,700 college athletes entered the transfer portal on January 2nd.

By this Friday, roughly half of them won't have a team.

In 2018, Susan Peal—a compliance officer from Ohio State—built a simple digital tool to streamline paperwork. Seven years later, that "compliance tool" has become a multi-million dollar marketplace that's fundamentally reshaping college sports.

But here's what the highlight reels don't show you...

→ 66% of successful transfers move DOWN in competition level, not up 
→ Only 45% of portal entrants successfully land at new schools 
→ Walk-ons face a 62% failure rate in finding new opportunities 
→ 18% of repeat transfers haven't earned their degrees—and that number is rising

I spent last year investigating the real story behind the NCAA Transfer Portal—researching coaches, athletes, and administrators who've lived through this revolution. What I found challenges everything you think you know about "free agency" in college sports.

🏈 Why did Miami's coach accuse Alabama of "stealing" their kicker? 
🏀 What do elite quarterbacks actually make in NIL deals? (Hint: It's 50x what it was in 2021) 
📊 Why do most athletes who transfer end up worse off than if they'd stayed? 
💰 How did a compliance tool become an $8 million bidding war?

The transfer portal isn't just changing college athletics—it's exposing every uncomfortable truth about what college sports have really become.

Read the full write up that dispels the myths, follows the money, and reveals the hidden assumptions that separate casual fans and industry insiders.

What's your take? Is the transfer portal athlete empowerment or organized chaos?
