The good news:
As a leader and as a human, you are by your nature a compassionate, content, and capable being.
The bad news:
It’s really easy to forget this.
Hi. I’m Mitch.
I help leaders, teams, and individuals to stop forgetting.
For most of my career I’ve been a strategy consultant.
But prior to that I trained as an engineer.
At one point I spent a few years building my own business.
And then a few months dabbling with Buddhist monastic life.
In 2020 I started training as a mental health professional.
Oh - and somewhere along the way I drove a pedicab in San Francisco.
In hindsight, I’ve really just been enjoying my time, becoming a coach.
