You solve hard problems all day. This is the one you can’t think your way out of.
One-on-one life coaching in Half Moon Bay for business owners, general managers, and attorneys who are winning at work and quietly stuck off the clock. You’re the one everyone leans on. This is the standing hour that’s finally just for you.
12-week coaching engagements, $3,600. Lighter ongoing options too.
You can out-think almost any problem at work. The personal ones don’t respond to a spreadsheet.
From the outside, you’ve got it handled: the business, the title, the reputation. But something off the clock isn’t working, and the sharp, decisive version of you at the office goes quiet when it’s your own life on the table.
- There’s a decision you’ve been circling for months and still haven’t made.
- You’re running on empty, and “push through it” stopped working a while ago.
- Something at home, in a relationship, or inside you needs attention you keep postponing.
- You’re the person everyone else leans on, and you don’t have anyone who just listens to you.

A structured partnership, not a pep talk.
This isn’t therapy and it isn’t me handing you advice. It’s a focused, question-driven process. I act as a mirror: I hear what you’re actually saying, including the things you don’t realize you’re saying, help you name what’s really in the way, and hold you accountable to do something about it.
“His coaching acted as a mirror. I had a safe place to really see and hear myself from a new perspective.”
You bring the goals and do the work. I bring the questions, the structure, and a grounded, no-nonsense style you won’t find in the usual life-coach playbook. I’m trained in Results Based Coaching through McLaren Coaching, which is exactly what it sounds like: coaching built around the outcome you’re after, not talk for its own sake.
I’m a Half Moon Bay life coach, so we can meet in person on the coast or by video wherever you are.
The point isn’t more talk. It’s traction.
Clarity
Put a name to the thing that’s actually standing between you and what you want. Naming it is most of the battle.
The decision, made
Stop circling the call you’ve been avoiding. Leave with a direction and the confidence to act on it.
Your energy back
Change how and why you do things, so life feels lighter, less stressful, and more like yours again.
Personal and professional, aligned
The parts don’t stay in separate boxes. Clients call it getting two coaches for the price of one.
What’s the thing you keep circling?
Pick the one that’s closest. I’ll tell you how we’d start.
The decision usually isn’t the hard part. The loop is. We name what you’re actually weighing and the fear sitting underneath it, and get you to a call you can stand behind. Most people know the answer sooner than they let themselves believe.
Book a free consult →Push-through stopped working because the tank is empty, not because you’re weak. We look at what’s actually draining you, what you’re carrying that was never yours to carry, and how to run on something steadier than willpower.
Book a free consult →When the outside is handled but home isn’t, it colors everything else. We work on how you show up there, the conversation you’ve been putting off, and the small changes clients say made things better than they pictured.
Book a free consult →This is the sneaky one. You’ve hit the goals and something still feels hollow. We dig into the why underneath the what, and reconnect what you spend your days doing with who you actually want to be.
Book a free consult →That’s normal, and honestly a good place to start. Half the work is putting a name to the thing that’s been nagging at you. We’ll find it together first, then decide what to do about it. No need to show up with the right words.

A good fit if you’re
- A business owner, founder, general manager, or attorney
- Successful on paper and stuck somewhere off it
- Carrying a decision, a transition, or a strain you keep postponing
- Ready to do the work, not just vent about it
Probably not if you
- Want someone to tell you what to do
- Are looking for therapy or clinical mental-health care
- Aren’t ready to change anything yet
People a lot like you.
He asked such great, challenging questions every time, helping me realize my true power and confidence. And the best part? I did the work.
His sessions are very structured, and he’s great at asking questions to figure out exactly what you’re struggling with. He’ll hold you accountable, but nicely.
He spans the personal and professional so seamlessly it’s like getting two coaches for the price of one. I made a significant career move that was long overdue.
We worked together for 12 weeks as he helped me navigate a number of life transitions. He’s skilled at listening and reflecting things I didn’t know I was saying.
Ranger helped me find clarity, give a name to the things standing between me and my happiness, and ultimately overcome them.
I wasn’t sure I needed a life coach. But I changed how and why I do things, and made positive changes to live a happier, less stressful life.

Fair questions.
Is this therapy?+
No. Therapy tends to work on healing the past. Coaching is forward-looking: it’s about clarity, decisions, and action from where you are now. If what you need is clinical mental-health care, I’ll say so and help you find the right person. Plenty of clients do both.
I’ve never worked with a coach. Is that a problem?+
Not at all. A lot of my clients are first-timers, and most are surprised by how much they get out of it. You don’t need to arrive with the right words. That’s part of what we do together.
Is this about my business or my personal life?+
Both, and that’s the point. For business owners and leaders, the two are tangled together. We work on you, and the business tends to benefit right along with the rest of your life.
What’s the time commitment?+
One session a week for twelve weeks, plus whatever thinking happens between them. It’s a real commitment, sized so the work actually sticks instead of fading after a nice conversation.
How do we start?+
A free consult. We’ll talk through what’s going on, whether I’m the right fit, and what the twelve weeks would focus on. No pressure, and no charge.

Fifteen minutes, no cost, no pitch. We’ll figure out what’s really going on and whether the next twelve weeks should be spent working on it together.
