Approach
A clear, compassionate process for navigating what is next
I work with people and teams who sense that the old ways no longer fit and the way forward is not yet clear. We begin with where you are, then move, one step at a time, toward what is possible.
The CUSP Pathway
Rooted in the Co-Active Coaching model, the CUSP Pathway is a flexible framework I apply across all services - coaching, facilitation, and consulting. It is always tailored to the needs, pace, and potential of the individuals and teams I work with.

Guiding Principles
People are naturally creative, resourceful, and whole
I meet you where you are, not where others think you should be
You don’t need to be fixed - you need to be seen, heard, and supported.
Your timing, your truth, and your discomfort are all welcome here.
I coach the
person, not just
the topic
We blend deep learning with
forward action
Whether you come in with a career question or a team issue, we work with the whole of you - because that’s where lasting change happens.
You don’t need to be fixed - you need to be seen, heard, and supported.

-
Individuals seeking clarity or renewed purpose
-
Leaders stepping into new responsibilities or influence
-
Teams navigating cultural or structural change
-
Scientists, educators, and technical experts stepping into people leadership
-
Organizations committed to growth that is intentional, inclusive, and human-centered
Testimonials

“Brian is incredibly warm and kind - he creates a space that feels safe and welcoming. You can tell he’s deeply trustworthy and wise, which makes opening up feel natural. It’s like talking to someone who truly gets it. What feels unique with Brian is the personal connection we already had as friends. He knows the ins and outs of my life, which adds a level of depth and understanding that feels really special.”
Jesse Hawes, Co-Owner & Creative Director, Mon Pitou
