About Michael

Hi, I’m Michael

Certified Success Coach and Certified Mindfulness Life Coach

My Goal In Life

How do you envision your ideal day-to-day life?

It’s not an easy question to answer. My goal is, at its most basic, to encourage and help you find your own best practices and integrate them into your daily life.

Spirituality doesn’t need to be complicated, and mindfulness doesn’t need to be a chore. By showing you the way to set and achieve goals and connect the little dots that complete your life, I will help you not just to get on the right path, but to stay on it.

It may be one of the greatest challenges you have ever faced – but with guidance, it can, and will, be one of the most rewarding. It is my honor and privilege to help people on that path.

Born and Raised Jersey Boy

I grew up cherishing the natural landscapes of rural New Jersey, which contrast starkly with today’s mall-dotted horizons. Michael Life Coach

Childhood was filled with curiosity and mischief until I was blindsided by my parents’ divorce, a pain all too familiar to many.

My school years weren’t easy either; I faced doubting teachers who predicted my academic downfall, going as far as to say I’d never graduate college.

This was before my ADHD and dyslexia diagnosis. Despite the odds, my resolve only grew stronger.

I was driven to rise above these challenges and prove my detractors wrong.

Discovering the Realities of the Corporate Dream

I went straight out of college and into the high-powered corporate world, where my success mindset drove me to work hard and achieve, using the rigorous discipline that had powered me through academia. Michael Life Coach

Eventually, I climbed to the top. I was the Managing Direct of Leasing and Marketing for one of the United States’ biggest real estate development firms.

I had it all: a beautiful wife, a luxurious Manhattan apartment overlooking the park, plenty of cash in my bank account, a great group of friends, and a wonderful social life.

I should have been on top of the world – after all, I had made it, and I had all the material rewards I could have ever dreamed of.

But I wasn’t.

The sad reality was that I was an angry and depressed person who hated my life. Michael Life Coach

I had everything, but paradoxically, I felt as if I had nothing – and that what I was lacking was more precious than any of the trappings of high living.

I was overweight, overworked, overstressed, and over-it-all. Physically, it was taking its toll on me as I took my daily cocktails of Adderall, Xanax, and Vicodin pills and chain-smoked my way through two packs a day.

 

I was lost. I had it all – but the reality was that I felt like I had nothing and that I was a zombie drifting unconsciously through life.

I felt a distant, but enormously powerful, echo of my lost childhood when I got divorced in 2003 – and it was at this low ebb of my life that I rediscovered yoga.

My Discovery of Yoga and My Personal Growth Journey to Rediscover my True Purpose in Life

I was just thirty years old – but when I looked in the mirror, I only saw a weary, lost soul who seemed decades older.

I asked myself just one simple question: “Who am I? What is my purpose?

I knew that it was time to change, and my rediscovery of yoga opened up a door into a new world for me.

I found the discipline and philosophy of the discipline enchanting and quickly devoted myself to making yogic practices a part of my everyday life.

At a pivotal point in my life, I delved into diverse training and traditions.

My spiritual mentor, Guru H.H. Radhanatha Swami, introduced me to Eastern teachings, leading to three deeply spiritual years under his lineage. I underwent rigorous yoga training with experts like Raghunath das, Sondra Loring, Sue Elkind, and Naime Jezzeny.

At 40, I transitioned from a corporate executive to a life coach and yoga instructor, facing financial challenges but remaining committed.

I continue to grow, pursuing courses like Holistic Health from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. My journey, filled with challenges, propels me to assist others in navigating their own.

What I do Today

Today, I am living my personal truth. Michael Life Coach

I am a trained mindfulness coach, a trained success coach, and a lecturer in the art and science of mindfulness. I wake up with a simple purpose daily: to help others rediscover their powerful inner desires and give them the tools they need to make it happen.

Whether through one-on-one sessions, a group setting, or across vast distances online, I am rewarded with witnessing significant breakthroughs in my clients.

There is nothing more uplifting than the joy of helping others to rediscover their true power – and to guide them toward their rightful birth heritage.

Now you can use my extensive training and discipline to help you. I want nothing more than to see you succeed in your life.

You deserve it, and you have every right to enjoy nothing less than a happy and fulfilling life!

My Purpose and Mission

We are spiritual being living a material life – not a material being seeking a spiritual life!

“Who am I?”

This is a simple, yet powerful, question that we all ask ourselves at some point in life.

So why do we find it so hard to answer, especially when we feel that life is holding us back, preventing us from accessing the happiness and contentment that we seek?

There are many answers to this question, and I am here to help you on your journey to find your own unique answer. Michael Life Coach

In other words, my purpose is to help you to find your purpose.

In this hectic, modern world, it’s all too easy to collect material comforts, but feel spiritually down – and not really know quite what to do about it.

Deep inside you, you have a powerful purpose – one that completes your vision of what a happy and successful life really is.

By examining your Circle of Life results, we will go on a journey of unlocking not just your potential but creating the life that you truly want.

We all have a bright spark of greatness within us – and together, we can wash away old patterns and habits while creating the inner toolkit for a life full of joy, passion, and courage.

You are a spiritual being – and anything you want is possible. Above all, my goal is to help you achieve that vision with a measurable action plan that keeps you focused, disciplined, and on the path to your true destiny.

I worked with Michael for over a year and found my experience to be invaluable. Only had to leave my coaching practice due to personal financial issues. The coaching was kind & supportive but also firm and Michael was always able to recognize or sense exactly what I was going through and where I needed help. Mentally, physically and spiritually - Michael was always there to keep me on track and grounded. Whether you are looking for emotional life coaching, career life coaching or any combination of guidance - he can provide it. Love and appreciate you Michael!

I met Michael at a pivotal moment in my life; in the aftermath of a financially draining divorce, a career that was stalling and a general disorientation. Michael brings method to the madness. He helped me establish tangible goals and provided me with an anchoring narrative and a mission statement. Working with Michael helped me capitalize on my own strengths and gave both the tools and the accountability to stay the course. Highly recommended!

Michael has been instrumental in helping me recognize, work through, and rectify the limiting behaviors and thought processes that had consistently kept me from reaching my productivity goals. It is a long-term process that is still in the works, but he has brought invaluable insight that I would not have been able to develop as quickly on my own. Professional growth has come from focusing on building empowering habits combined with (at least for me) a needed layer of accountability. Together, we consistently define, assess, and adjust both long-term and short-term plans for career, financial, and personal development. And I'm grateful that his perspective continues to help me advance and achieve my goals. He's also incredibly down-to-earth, culturally/socially sensitive, professional, and pretty darn funny! Very glad I chose to work with him.
