Resident Systems Thinker & Synergist

Wellness Directory Profile:

You did it. You took the first step and you are entering your dream life. No more day job, no more rat race, no more hustle. Or maybe you are an empty nester, moved to a new city or town, or came into your trust fund. You can start the business, write the book, carry out your new big, hairy audacious goal. After all, you were a top performer at work! Your bosses and clients raved about you. You were always top of your class in school, or school was not a priority yet you always succeeded at everything you did.

You can do anything you want. You have the resources of clarity, money, time, connections, attention, and energy to accomplish anything. Yet the hours stretch before you. You read self-help books, hire a coach, and join groups. You make new friends… and still, the expanse is difficult to traverse. It’s hard to know how and when to pivot, who will be your future client and who is just not right for you, it’s hard to know which mastermind to join or which shiny product and service to invest in.

The truth is that we need our own bespoke containers and systems of time, energy, networks, and money to hone our attention and achieve our biggest dreams. The truth is jobs and education created external structures to complete great work. The truth is that self-help groups and books mostly rely on structures other people created to solve their own problems in their lives or industries.

About me:

I am not a coach, I am not a nutritionist, I am not a personal chef, and I am certainly not a medical doctor. But I am an urban planner, innovation networks annd economic geography researcher, university professor and Ivy League Ph.D. (in urban planning) who has successfully overcome a vast stretch of unstructured time and conceptual silos. I understand deeply how somatic healing, community development, activism, knowledge and data management, strategic foresight, building communities and networks, and creative thinking are tied together.

I have built my own systems and tools, know how to always build and rebuild my support structures, networks, and advisors with each subsequent goal, and I know how to think and work laterally. I will help you do the same.

How is this Wellness?

Well, as one of my favorite economists Amartya Sen has said, development is freedom. Ultimately, we all want to be free— and so many of us get to freedom. Then what? When we don’t have good systems in place or when we are stressed, we can’t use our freedom well enough think creatively, conceptually, or expansively. I am your resource for after your wellness journey… I will help you thrive in your creation and expansion journey!
