Testimonials

The proof is in the people.

From executives and organizations to individuals rebuilding their lives, here is what it is like to work with Doug.

"After three months coaching with Doug, I was able to narrow the goals I wanted to achieve. I found a job, doubled my salary, and drastically improved my quality of life. He asks questions that bring out what you truly desire."

Robert Spittler Client

"I have come to Doug with problems that seemed insurmountable, only to find a clear path by the end of our hour together. I once held a vision for my role that seemed wholly unachievable. Today I find myself succeeding in exactly that role. I cannot recommend him enough for anyone seeking to advance in their career, relationships, and leadership."

Alycia Castillo Client

"He creates a safe space that allows you to explore the leader that you are and helps you build on that. By asking the right questions, he helps you shine a light on answers you didn't even know you had. Doug's coaching helped transform me into the leader I always wanted to be."

Río Gonzalez Client

"We worked with Doug to develop a leadership academy for our wildland firefighter training. He teaches leadership as an intentional act, where people find internally the resources to create change externally. Our graduates now serve in wildland firefighting positions in California, where everyone must show up as an effective leader."

Brandon Smith Executive Director, Forestry and Fire Recruitment Program

"Doug provided an outstanding leadership training to the Hogg Mental Health Policy Academy that helped Fellows understand a strategic framework for driving policy change and the power of their own voice and lived experience. He is a skilled facilitator and excellent listener, and a true collaborator in the development of the sessions."

Stephanie Rubin Executive Director, Texans Care for Children

"Doug's approach is gentle but firm, and he gracefully gets me to my own conclusions. He helps me see my own power and hear my own intuition rather than telling me what to do next. I always feel supported and respected, met where I am, and pushed to be my best and to own both my successes and my opportunities for growth."
