Founder Adapt Grow Fitness & Ai Interdisciplinary Collective

I help men and women 35+ in Michigan get strong, lean, and energized again—using a powerful mix of personal training, medical-grade hormone optimization, and no-BS coaching that actually works.
For men, I specialize in TRT-fueled fitness transformations—restoring muscle, confidence, and energy when testosterone levels start tanking.

For women, I coach peptide-supported fat loss programs designed specifically for the hormonal chaos of the late 30s to mid-40s—helping you drop 20+ pounds, boost metabolism, and feel in control of your body again.

I offer real, personalized transformation programs backed by medical diagnostics, smart coaching, and unmatched accountability.

This isn’t about quick fixes or motivation posters—it’s about finally fixing the root cause of why your body stopped responding… and giving you the roadmap to take it back.

✅ In-person coaching available in Michigan
✅ Virtual programs with integrated doctor referral + bloodwork
✅ 8–12 week high-performance programs for serious clients only

If you’re a professional in your late 30s or 40s and tired of guessing, suffering, or stalling—I got you.

Growth doesn’t create freedom. Structure does.

You built the company. But somehow, it still runs through you. That’s the problem I fix.

→ Eliminate decision bottlenecks
→ Install delegation systems that stick
→ Build calm, clear workflows that scale

Most founders think they need better tools. 

What they really need is structure and someone who knows how to implement it without slowing things down.

A few wins from the trenches:

→ Helped scale a sports business from €1.6M → €7M (team: 3 ➝ 14)
→ Co-built a short-term rental operation to €500K/year
→ Ran ops in multiple growth-stage service companies with founder-led chaos at the center

That’s why I now share what I’m learning in real time, from inside the business, not the sidelines:

→ What works (and what doesn’t)
→ Systems that reduce chaos instead of adding more
→ Ways to delegate without constant follow-up
→ Tools that save time, not create more noise

If you’re building something you care about but feel stuck inside it, you’re not alone.

I’ve been there. Some days, I still am.

Let’s connect and swap notes.
