Who this is for

Some of the sentences I hear most often on a first call:

“I know what I should do. I'm just not doing it.”

“I got everything I said I wanted, and the good feeling never came.”

“Colleagues irritate me. Home irritates me. Everything just got harder and I can't point at why.”

“I'm going on holiday and I'm already planning my first day back.”

If one of those landed, this is probably for you.

The people I usually work with

Managers, heads and founders in GameDev, SaaS and tech. Some are stepping into a bigger role. Some have been in one for years and it stopped fitting. Most are the person everyone else comes to for clarity, with nowhere to go with their own.

What we will not be doing

I will not be searching for your life purpose, digging through your childhood, or introducing you to your inner child. Nothing against any of it. It is simply not what I do.

I also will not hand you answers dressed up as questions. I am not a consultant on your business, and I am not your therapist.

What we will do is work on the thinking and the decisions sitting in front of you right now.

When I will say no

I will say it on the first call, not three sessions in.

If what you are carrying belongs in therapy, or you are in an acute crisis, I will say so and point you to someone better suited. The same goes if what you actually want is for me to tell you what to do, or if the request underneath it all is really “make my boss change”.

I also say no when I can tell we would not work well together. That is not a judgement of you, it is a bad fit, and we both lose if I take it anyway.

Turning someone down costs me a client and saves us both three months.
