The Approach Coaching Method

Before the Brand. Before the Blueprint, there is You! The Lumps, Bumps, and Triumphs - I get it! My Coaching is in REAL TIME. I am the Coach for High Performers.

Integrating the "Human Benefit" to get to the foundational needs of any Business is key. It is with an Approach of trust and deep dive conversations we work together to build your business with purpose. Staying true to your talents, leveraging resources, utilization of tools, and delivering on meaningful conversations. We work on your business together with a planned, specific, and meaningful method. I have Coached over 26,000 hrs. Worked with 100s of Business Owners. Managed and assisted in the development of Business Coaching programs. I have competed at very high levels. I have Coached in athletics and business - from grassroots to top tier. This is why I created The Approach Coaching Method.

For one night, you allow yourself full expression.
Your "audience" gets to see the bold come alive:
The Hero.
The Rebel.
The Thinker.
The Joker.
The Icon.
The Siren.
…and it fascinates me every time.
One night to temporarily remove the filter that hides the creative you truly are the other 364 days of the year?!?!

Work through this today:
“who am I when I stop explaining myself and start embodying myself?”
“if I was a super-hero, what would my extraordinary power be?”

Imagine what would happen in your business, your leadership, your relationships, if you chose to do that every day?

In a world influenced by trends, the strongest personal brand isn’t polished.
💥It is the one most aligned and feels familiar. (yes, read that again)
… because it is called a Personal Brand NOT a People Brand.

Art is intelligence having fun...and sales is what you do when you don't know how to market.

You see, there's a pace that changes in the fall, and I will be reminding all my top performancers of one very important thing: Go be creative! Make something. Capture something...or take in someone else's gift.

And the excuse, "I don't have time", never flies because you know that you improve your life by doing less of what doesn't matter, and being able to capture a moment.

This is the kind of stuff that makes your business life better.

3 things every high-achiever goes through:

1) Have a routine. Your brain and body needs patterns. Your routine will "mature" along with you so don't fear the evolution. Give yourself the gift of stability.
- think about drills in sports. A repetitive physical and mental process. Among many, the greatest reason is stability.

2) Learn to love silence, and to do that, you need to be OK with who you are. Out of every "TSN turning point" I have witnessed, this is the exact time the breakthru happens. These are the ones who move industries and people forward. Collaboration is real. They finally see that everything has a trade-off or better said, "BUY-IN". Always be the buyer.

3) Practice. Practice. Practice.
Instead of telling you to do this, I am going to help you understand why you don't do this.
You don't practice your craft because you don't like doing it! What and where you are is not WHO you are! It's torture! If you were to ask me the biggest reason why the advice industry has not moved forward, it would be this very reason. Without knowing, "we" ask people to be who they are not. Simplest way to put this is that "we" are nagging little Jimmy & Jenny to practice the piano. Jimmy & Jenny hate the piano. Jimmy wants to go outside and shoot hoops until dusk, and Jenny wants to be a drummer.
..but nobody was brave enough to ask or notice.

I practice what I preach:

1) 6AM I write about the day ahead according to my "Week Ahead" focus plan.

2) I meditate. Quiet my mind. (if an Aries can do this, you can too!)

3) I ask myself this question every darn day, "Beyond the title, the past awards, accomplishments, and the performances - who are you?"

This is business.
This is life...and this is simple, but not easy.

Me: Imagine you're driving a car.

You're trying to find an address, but the music is playing loudly. What do you do?

You: I turn it down.

Me: Why?

You: So I can focus.

Me: But do you search with your ears?

You: No. With my eyes.

Me: Then why does silence help you see?

You: Because my brain has less to process.

Me: So sound can hide something directly in front of you?

You: I guess it can.

Me: So what happens when every quiet moment of your life gets filled?

You: Filled with what?

Me: Music, notifications, videos, other people's thoughts...

You: My brain never stops processing.

Me: ...and if one song can hide an entire street from you?
What would you notice if you lowered everything else?

You: The life you had thought had become boring was never empty. It was just full of distractions to see it.
When Matt Halloran asked me to jump behind the mic on Zocks new podcast, "Better Practice. Better Life", I don't think he even got the full ask out before I said, HECK YA!

Episode will be dropping in 2weeks. (Oct 26) Until then, go listen to the previous guests. There are some incredible conversations. ...ones that won't clog up your life!

PS - thank you Heaven & Earth poetry for the inspiration.

Tell me who you are, without telling me who you are.
I'll start.

No matter how big the effort is on one side, if the other side stays at zero, the result will always be nothing. ..and it is getting worse.

I spend my days taking leaders and high-performers through coaching. I listen a lot. I get to hear the things many will be afraid to write about.
The world of beige and lost identities is growing at an alarming rate.

So what has changed?

Is it AI? Or is it the fact that the basic human need of finishing something from beginning to end, and all the learnings in between, has faded?

Is it AI? Or is it simpler for the unethical to gain a voice?

Is it AI? Or is it that we are replacing time saved with more stuff? ...and not the fun stuff?

Is it AI? Or have we become so mistrusting because it is almost impossible to recognize real? ...even starting to argue that conjured-up synthetic art is real art?!?!

Those who use it as a tool, and don't let themselves be a tool, are winning. But the restraint to not let their critical thinking fade is a big battle. I know. I have been guilty of this, as I was a very early adopter, and so have many of my clients.

You see, we never actually gave up the hairspray. We gave up the aerosol. We switched to the pump bottle, which did the same job with less damage and one catch: you had to do the work yourself, one squeeze at a time.

Human, human, TOOL, human. Not zero AI. Just less autopilot, more pump. ..and yes, Jessie's girl now has arthritis in her pointer finger from all that youthful overspray and pressure. Every tool leaves a mark. Choose the one you can live with.

Thank you Peter Zachari for the inspiration!

Having sat at the table during deals that become moments of business transformation, here are the top 3 things I watch for.

1) Investors want the entire story. But only after you have made them dream of what the possibility is. Start with the Outcome 💪

2) There are no "sellers" and "buyers" in successful partnerships. Both are buyers. It is a mutually beneficial engagement. You are buying into them, and they of you.

3) The accumulation of little things will not go unnoticed by the right business partner.
Things like fresh cut flowers, being greeted by the Branch Manager and taking Staffy breaks filled with treats...and they will show interest by taking turns showing up at your space, as you do theirs.

"Hire" slow my friends, and "fire" fast.
In Business. In Life.

One simple ask for the week ahead. It will do more for your business than anything else.
Go into you notes, wherever you may keep them. ..on your phone, in a book, or reread your last 5 posts.
Read them.
Look for patterns, cycles, sequence.

After decades of coaching, I know it is never a certain profile. Success is 💯 decided in the patterns.

This is why looking at behaviors over beliefs is the measurement.

Wisdom in the Whispers

The ones who talked too much.
Questioned "rules".
Didn't give a flying 2cents about being popular.

Tell us in the comments what kind of business you run today! 🫣😅
..and bonus points if you left notes in the desk for the other misfits to find. My kind of SOP.

09/02/2026

How do you tell stories? Time and strategically place emotion?

Remember, a high-light reel as an intro is the strongest place to imprint thoughts, ideas, repetitive statements to think about.

This is the intro to the Wisdom in the Whispers.
Episode 02 is locked and loaded!

Guest, business partner, and dear friend, Shaun Whynacht.
