Ambitious Solopreneur? Get back 10-20 hours per week w/ systems & delegation 🏝️ Your 'Co-Pilot' to scale with simplicity.

I was living my life waiting for “someday”... 

“Someday” I’ll take that trip... 

“Someday” I’ll have more autonomy... 

"Someday" I'll have more time to do what I love...

Then, I decided to stop waiting. 

I started designing the life and business I wanted. 

In 2016, I dove head first into entrepreneurship.
 
I went from $0 to 5-figure months within 90-days. Within a year, I paid off all my debt and created complete financial freedom for myself. 
 
Having money is great (don't get me wrong), but I wanted true wealth = TIME freedom.

I wanted a business that would run without me. 

I dreamt of unplugged vacations, living in other countries and exploring the world less-traveled. 
 
To make this happen, I needed the right strategies and systems in place to run on auto-pilot, while STILL growing profits and serving my clients at the highest level.
 
So, I invested thousands of dollars and countless hours figuring it out & making every mistake you can think of, to find the simplest solutions to scaling as a solo. 
 
Since then, I've applied these same solutions to other 1-person businesses. I help solopreneurs get back 20+ hours per week by amplifying what they love doing and simplifying everything else.

My clients are scaling their 6 & 7 figure businesses without wasting more time, adding complexity or hiring a bunch of people. 
 
This isn’t theory (see testimonials below). 

And I actually live this life too! 

I've been traveling full time since 2019 (40+ countries so far), keeping business simple, and having the time of my life instead of waiting for "someday".

Territory Manager

After investing over 25 years in corporate America in roles ranging from sales to VP of Training and Development to strategic consulting, I became burned out and developed chronic health ailments. Not happy with the solutions presented to me, I knew there was a better way, and I was determined to find it.

After years of research and development and personal implementation in science-backed methodologies, biofeedback, and mind/body practices, my entire life, career, and health turned around for the better. As a result, I was inspired to share this with others and launched my company, Core Performance in 2003.

I have developed a comprehensive approach that addresses the root causes of stress and burnout. This approach doesn't rely on special diets or workouts, lengthy talk-therapy sessions, or prescription medications. Instead, it leverages the latest in technology and scientific research to help clients develop greater self-awareness and emotional self-regulation, which are key to improving their performance and overall well-being.

My coaching methodology has been successful in helping hundreds of executives achieve greater levels of success and fulfillment in their lives and careers. It has also been applied in the Department of Defense through the Stress Resilience Training System (SRTS) that I helped develop, which has been used to assist military personnel in managing stress and performing at their best in high-pressure environments.

After implementing my training, many clients report waking up happy, even on a Monday morning. They have shifted from living in anxiety to peace and finally sleeping through the night after years of wrestling with sleep.

I'm also part of a global network of corporate consultants trained by Dr. Joe Dispenza, New York Times bestselling author, lecturer, and researcher, to teach organizations how to apply the neuroscience of change to increase employee engagement, collaboration, creativity, productivity, and ultimately, business results.

NCS consultants have worked with teams at Cisco, Sony, Coca-Cola, IBM, Johnson & Johnson, USAID, Rackspace, Microsoft, Pfizer, Heineken, and many more.

These basketball players chose to support each other across team lines. Not because they had to. Because of who they are.

That's character.

And it's the most underrated leadership skill in the workplace.

You can teach someone strategy. You can teach technical skills. You can teach productivity systems.

But character? That's harder.

Here's what I've learned working with executives: character isn't built in workshops or written in company values posters.

Character is built in moments of stress when no one is looking.

When your competitor wins the client and you congratulate them instead of talking behind their back.

When your direct report is struggling and you help them succeed instead of replacing them.

Leaders don't foster character by talking about it. They foster it by modeling it under pressure.

When leaders regulate their own stress response, they create psychological safety for their teams.

Research shows that teams with high psychological safety are 27% more likely to report high performance (NFP Research, 2025).

But psychological safety doesn't come from policies. It comes from character.

It comes from leaders who stay calm when things go wrong. Who support instead of blame. Who lift people up even when it's inconvenient.

Your team doesn't just watch what you say. They watch how you regulate yourself when the pressure is on.

Do you stay supportive when someone fails? Or do you react with anger?

Do you extend grace when someone is struggling? Or do you withdraw it?

Do you help people up when they're down? Or do you step over them?

Character is everything because your internal state determines your actions.

The executives I work with train themselves to regulate under pressure so they can show up with integrity when it matters most.

Learn how to regulate under pressure and lead with integrity in my last live webinar of the year on December 9th. Link in the first comment below.

CEO Core Performance | Vistage & Entrepreneurs'​ Organization SME Speaker | Master Certified Resilience Trainer | NCSC @NeuroChangeSolutions I Creating high performing organizations from the inside out

Your circle of friends and coworkers affects your health more than your gym membership. Sound dramatic?

It’s backed by decades of research.

A 2025 Cornell study found that people with strong, sustained social support actually age slower at the cellular level.

Their biological clocks ticked slower.
Their bodies showed less chronic inflammation.
Their mental health was more stable and resilient.

Here’s why:
Your brain doesn’t separate emotional pain from physical pain.
When you feel excluded, judged, or unsupported, it activates the same threat centers in the brain that process actual physical injury.

But the opposite is also true.
Supportive environments calm the brain and reduce stress at a neurological level.

In this video the boys friends encourage him:
 "You got this"
 "It's yours"
 "Come on"

The encouragement of his team moved him out of fear and into action.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗟𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗻:

This is exactly what happens inside your workplace.

Your team members are constantly scanning their environment for cues of threat or safety.

A dismissive tone, silence after speaking up, or being overlooked for a contribution can trigger the same stress response as a physical threat.

On the other hand, a well-timed word of encouragement, appreciation, or support can reverse it instantly.

Supported people think more clearly, sleep better, make stronger decisions, and stay longer.

Teams that lack psychological safety and connection may still show up. But they won’t show up at their best.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝗗𝗼 𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆:
Start your next team meeting with a "peer highlight" moment.
Ask each person to name one specific way a teammate helped them recently.

This creates a loop of positive reinforcement that activates safety, engagement, and trust.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺?

#Leadership #TeamCulture

Leadership can be exhausting. It requires you to be confident and humble. And at the same time, strong and vulnerable, fast and patient. No wonder it can be hard.

You need confidence to make decisions. But arrogance kills learning and credibility.

Your team needs empathy and support. But clarity matters too, even when the truth stings.

You need input to make informed choices. But when time is short, you have to decide and move.

Here's what makes this even harder: these aren't either-or choices. They're 𝗯𝗼𝘁𝗵-𝗮𝗻𝗱 requirements.

The solution isn't picking one side. It's developing the capacity to regulate yourself enough to know which truth the moment requires.

When your internal state is dysregulated, you can default to extremes.

Stress pushes you toward rigid control instead of empowered accountability.

Fear makes you rush decisions instead of building momentum with patience.

Exhaustion turns optimism into blind spots instead of realistic hope.

Research shows that leaders under chronic stress have reduced activity in the prefrontal cortex, the brain region responsible for complex decision-making and holding nuanced perspectives (American Heart Association, 2021).

But when you can regulate your stress response, you gain access to nuance.

You can project confidence while staying curious about what you don't know.

You can be transparent about challenges while protecting information that would create unnecessary alarm.

You can move with speed when it's time to act and practice patience when the situation isn't ready.

Resilience training is expanding your capacity to hold complexity.

Train your internal state, and you unlock the ability to navigate the gray.

Leadership can be hard. But it gets easier when you stop fighting the contradictions and start training yourself to hold both truths.

If you would like to master this state, join our last live event of the year on Dec 9, 2025.

Trust isn't built by having all the answers.

Look at those phrases in the graphic. Every single one requires you to do something uncomfortable:

 - Admit you were wrong.
 - Say you don't know.
 - Disagree openly.
 - Set boundaries on what you can commit to.

When your stress response is activated, your brain goes into self-protection mode.

Your prefrontal cortex, the part responsible for thoughtful communication and nuanced thinking, gets overridden by your threat response.

You become defensive instead of accountable.

You rush to answer instead of pausing to think.

You avoid uncomfortable truths instead of being transparent.

You justify instead of owning mistakes.

Research shows that leaders under chronic stress have reduced prefrontal cortex activity, the exact brain region needed for integrity-based communication (American Heart Association, 2021).

You can't think your way into speaking with integrity when your body is in threat mode.

Here's what changes everything:

When you train your stress response to stay regulated under pressure, you create the physiological space to choose integrity.

You can say "I was wrong" without your ego taking over.

You can say "I need to think about this" without feeling like you're losing credibility.

You can disagree respectfully without getting defensive.

You can admit you don't know without spiraling into inadequacy.

The gap between knowing you should speak with integrity and actually doing it? That's internal self-regulation.

Every phrase in that graphic requires you to override a threat response:

The urge to protect your image when you make a mistake.

The pressure to have an immediate answer when you don't know.

The discomfort of setting honest boundaries instead of over-committing.

Leaders who consistently speak with integrity have trained their internal state to stay calm enough to choose honesty over self-protection.

Your team doesn't need you to be perfect. They need you to be regulated enough to be honest.

Would you like to learn how to self regulate no matter what the situation is so you can always show up with integrity?

If so, join me for my last live webinar of 2025 to learn how our most successful clients do this no matter the situation.

Check out the link in the first comment below.

When everything around you feels heavy, chaotic, or uncertain… look again.
You may be the light in the very place that feels dark.

Most people wait for circumstances to shift before they feel grounded again.
But God put something inside you that doesn’t depend on circumstances.
Something that doesn’t dim under pressure.
Something that doesn’t disappear when life feels overwhelming.

𝗟𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁.

And science confirms what Scripture has said all along, your internal state matters.
When your heart comes into coherence, your brain follows.
When you regulate your stress response, you become a calming force others lean on.
When your thoughts align with truth, your entire environment begins to change.

Scripture says:
 “𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱.” — 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘄 𝟱:𝟭𝟰
 “𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝘁.” — 𝗝𝗼𝗵𝗻 𝟭:𝟱

So if this season feels dark…
If stress is louder than peace…
If you’re carrying burdens no one else can see…

Look again.
You may be the light God placed in that space, your home, your team, your relationships, to bring clarity, peace, and steady leadership.

The world doesn’t need more people trying to push through stress.
It needs leaders and executives who know how to regulate their internal state and reflect the One who calms the storm.

That’s the work I do.
That’s the work I walk people through every day.
And it’s the work that changes everything.

If you're ready to step into that kind of peace, the kind that shines even in darkness, I’d like to invite you to the last live webinar I am hosting this year on Dec 9th. Check out the link in the first comment below.

#resilience #neuroscience #scripture #innerpeace

“𝗜 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲.” We all say it. But what if it’s not just about time?

What if it’s about commitment?

We make time for what we’re truly committed to, consciously or not. So when we feel like we don’t have time, it may not be about the hours in the day. It may be about what we’re unconsciously committed to:

 - Staying in motion because stillness feels unsafe.
 - Responding to every demand because we fear letting someone down.
 - Living in urgency because we’ve equated stress with value.

When we live in stress, we live in the past. And when the body is stuck in the past, the future is just more of the same.

We repeat what we don't repair.

So when you hear yourself say, “I don’t have enough time,” do this:

𝗣𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲.
𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁.
𝗖𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗲𝘆𝗲𝘀.

Breathe in slowly through your nose, imagining your breath flowing in and out of your heart or chest area. Breathe a little deeper and slower than usual.

𝗜𝗻𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗲.
𝗘𝘅𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗲.

Repeat this 10 times.

This simple practice helps shift your body out of a reactive state and into 𝗯𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘀𝗶𝘀, the place where presence lives.

Because presence requires one thing: 𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗿𝘂𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝘂𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆.

And from that state, you can ask the real question:
What am I actually committed to right now?

Is it clarity? Peace? Connection?
Or is it control, busyness, proving, avoiding?

You don’t need more hours in the day.
You need fewer moments spent in patterns that no longer serve you.

One of my clients, Michael, a veteran and New York City SWAT officer told me, “I used to come home and still be at war in my head. Now, I’m here. My kids feel it. My wife feels it. I feel it.”

Time isn’t the issue.
𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝘀.
And presence starts with a choice.

How do you learn to stay present in times that matter the most? Drop a comment below.

Anxiety isn't just in your head.

It's in your body, your thoughts, and your emotions all at once.

Physical symptoms: Dizziness. Sweating. Muscle tension. Shakiness.

Mental symptoms: Overthinking. Feeling overwhelmed. Negative thoughts.

Emotional symptoms: Irritated. Crying. Guilt. Depressed. Exhaustion. Impatience. Anger.

Here's what most people don't understand about anxiety:

Your thoughts trigger your emotions, which trigger your body.

It's not three separate problems. It's one cascading response.

You have a thought: "I'm not prepared for this meeting."

That thought triggers an emotion: fear, inadequacy.

That emotion triggers your body: heart racing, sweating, muscle tension.

And then your body feeds back to your brain: "Something is wrong. There's a threat."

Which creates more anxious thoughts. Which creates more emotional distress. Which creates more physical symptoms.

𝗜𝘁'𝘀 𝗮 𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗽.

And here's the problem: you can't think your way out of a stress response your body is running.

Because logic lives in your prefrontal cortex. But anxiety lives in your autonomic stress response.

You have to train the body to shift out of threat mode.

When you regulate your internal state, the physical symptoms calm down. When the body calms, the thoughts quiet. When the thoughts quiet, the emotions stabilize.

You break the loop by training the stress response itself.

Not by managing thoughts. Not by pushing through. By regulating the physiological state that's driving all three systems.

If you're ready to learn how to break the anxiety loop and train your stress response instead of just managing symptoms, join me for a live webinar on December 9th where I will teach you the exact system I teach my most successful client. The link is in the first comment.
