I graduated! I am officially an Ontological Business and Life Coach thanks to Ideal Coaching Mexico. The past 10 months have taken incredible commitment. I flew to Mexico City five times. I trusted, I cried, I broke down, I stood up, I broke down, I stood up, I collided with my ego, and then, by a miracle, I flew. My first time in Mexico City was the most extraordinary experience. I didn’t know what to expect. The media portrays a side…
I was walking around my lake yesterday, enjoying the fresh Los Angeles air. In front of me, there was a young man with endless tattoos and long blond hair, kicking a soccer ball. I trailed behind him around the lake, until I decided to take a seat on a bench I had never sat in before. A few quiet moments passed. I savored each one.

You can then plant the tomato seeds in the soil. The sun will give the tomato nutrients and you will water the…
My journey to Costa Rica took me from San Jose to a small backpacker town deep in the Caribbean rainforest. I lived in Puerto Viejo for over a year when I was in my early 20’s, bar tending at Tasty Waves Cantina (aka the best surf bar in the world) and making authentic Costa Rican chocolate at Echo Books. It was an adventure beyond description and being back felt like less than a day had passed by. I arrived at my…
Perception according to the Freemason James Kirkpactick, is ultimately an illusion. How you see yourself, your neighbors, the world… isn’t real. For just a few moments, attempt to put aside everything you think you know about yourself. Every belief you have about the universe, creation, society, freedom, government, and God.
