Stepping into the arena of doing epic work and living an epic life takes courage.
That’s why you need someone in your corner,
a trusted advisor who can help you grow, thrive and win.
Who do you turn to?
We combine 32 years
of working with some of the world’s best leaders with a faith-based approach to helping smart, forward-thinking people bridge the gap between where they are and where they want to be.
People come to us for one of four reasons:
Insanely Great Life
Clients come to us because they want a more deeply connected, profoundly meaningful and adventurous life. We work with them to eliminate the fears that drain joy and zest out of their lives, to not be held hostage by history and to trade “just getting by” for a bigger YES!
When you start with knowing your life matters, not because of what you have or achieve, but because you are unconditionally loved by God, genuine freedom reigns.
We explore what it means to live loved, to be accepted and to find meaning by being included in the greatest story ever told. Our clients discover how self-giving, other-centered love, in every dimension of their lives, expands their impact in the world.
Daring Leadership
The world has never been more hungry for leaders who recognize the potential in people and ideas, and who aren’t afraid to step into the arena of uncertainty, risk and exposure to develop them.
We’ve been certified in Brené Brown’s DARE TO LEAD™ courage building framework.
This involves helping our clients expand their influence, accelerate innovation and navigate change in four areas: rumbling with vulnerability, closing the values gap between what they say and do, growing trust and ditching shame/blame to create a better future.
Noble Cause–Courageous Culture
We help clients define their business as a CAUSE; not just a company. Then, turn their workforce and customer base into a movement.
People opt-in to movements. They aren’t manipulated.
When the business becomes a cause it creates the foundation for a COURAGEOUS CULTURE—a place where impassioned people show up fully-awake, fully-engaged, willing to have authentic, tough conversations and manage the creative tension that comes with innovation and change.
They do it because they have something worth changing for.
Crafting-Delivering Speeches that Inspire
Pick the audience–customers, employees, board of directors, athletic team or the media–people want to know if you can connect. Are you vulnerable, transparent and authentic? Do you have conviction—the heart, mind and soul kind? Do you believe what you are saying? Can you tell a story? Do you care about me?
For most people this doesn’t come easy.
We work quietly and confidentially with leaders to build their confidence and turn bland messages into narratives that engage. Clear, concise and compelling makes you unforgettable–unforgettable turns employees and consumers into brand ambassadors.
We don’t just teach it, we practice it. We have given over 2000 presentations to 60 industries around the world. We know what works and want to share it with you.

“I didn’t want a fly-by-night consultant.”
For seven years, Jackie has been working with Mehran Assadi, CEO and Chairman of National Life Group (NLG) to create a courageous culture where people own learning and performance and find meaning in what they do.
Jackie helped NLG define its CAUSE and then establish a campaign for enllisting 1700 corporate office employees and more than 30,000 field agents in this cause.
While most of the insurance industry is either declining or flatlining, NLG has experienced double-digit growth. In this clip Mehran discusses the link between a noble, heroic cause and their success at NLG.
before working with us you need to know
three major virtues influence our coaching:
Grit
Doing brave work and living a meaningful life requires grit–a special blend of passion and perseverance ignited by deep-seated conviction. Grit surfaces when you stand for something your truly believe in–a cause worth fighting for.
In turn, that cause helps you find the courage to step into uncertainty, risk and exposure, all of which come with spiritual maturity and organizational growth.
When talent overcomes insurmountable odds and rises to its true potential grit is always the facilitator.
Grace
Our coaching draws from our 25-plus-year journey toward freedom and aliveness and what it means to live loved. Created in the image of the Triune God and made for communion with the Trinity, we believe you are unconditionally loved and wholly accepted. This is the truth of who you are. That’s why it is called the Good News.
“Getting this” is where true, long-term transformation begins.
Gravitas
We’ve seen it played out many times in the gutsy, go-for-it leaders we’ve worked with–leaders who fill a room with energy, draw the best out of others, and stand for things that matter.
They are loved, respected and liked because of their strong convictions, other-orientations, self-effacing personalities and because they carry themselves with a kind of gravitas that is grounded in confident humility.
Want to become powerfully present without being overbearing?
We can help.
