Peak Performance Coach | Advisor | Founder - I help individuals and teams unlock their potential using neuroscience-backed techniques for more joy, meaning, and impact.

I am an executive coach who helps leaders master energy, focus, and flow. My coaching is a unique blend of neuroscience, sports science, and my experience as a senior leader in highly volatile, complex and uncertain environments. 

I helped build three companies past $8B in valuation with two IPOs and one private exit. 

I have been a hacker, researcher, athlete and explorer most of my life. 

When I was 19, I started hacking my brain with light and sound, meditation, and neurofeedback.

This led to a lifetime of finding ways to train the brain just like an athlete would train the body.

I chased flow through mountaineering, rock climbing, and endurance events discovering a formula that worked for a while but was not sustainable. 

My training  in yoga, meditation, and breathwork helped me respond to the stresses of working as an executive in the cybersecurity industry. 

Further studies in neuroscience helped me ground the training in the latest knowledge about the brain and how it responds and adapts to stress. 

This experience led me to create the Corporate Athlete Program, to help leaders do the best work of their lives, while feeling great at the same time. 

What can I help with? 
>> Automate and eliminate low value activities
>> Increase time in flow for greater productivity
>> Turn curiosity into passion and purpose
>> Think big and use leverage to maximize impact
>> Give gratitude to increase joy and love in your life
>> Align activities to your purpose through clear goals
>> Reduce addiction to screens and cheap dopamine

Why should I be trusted?
I am certified by the Flow Research Collective as a Peak Performance Coach, hold a Masters in Applied Neuroscience from King’s College, London, and am a certified Ashtanga Yoga Instructor. I have two decades of leadership experience in public companies, growing people faster than the business. I am trained in effective coaching modalities including positive psychology coaching, solutions-focused coaching, and cognitive behavioral coaching. I have delivered thousands of hours of coaching, in real-world environments, with founders, CxOs, VPs, and high performing individual contributors. My practice is grounded in trust building, powerful practices, and empathic support and accountability.

Founder and CTO

The goal of Be Well Innovation is to bring practical and approachable neuroscience-backed practices to individuals, families, and teams to help them achieve more joy, meaning and impact. We use coaching modalities with proven efficacy and neuroscience-backed techniques for building great habits, achieving more flow, and having more impact.

Three years ago, I walked away from an awesome role to build something new.

I had no clients, no guarantee it would work, and a family counting on me.

What I did have was a belief that work could feel different. That people could thrive instead of just survive. That energy and joy aren't luxuries, they are requirements for doing great work.

You showed up. You read the posts. You shared your struggles. You booked calls. You trusted me with your team.

For every read, comment, share, and conversation, you made this possible.

Thank you! 🙏

I appreciate you and all you do.

After Thanksgiving, we will engage in our annual tradition of the Turkey Olympics. Healthy competition with family and friends, paired with Thanksgiving leftovers:

🏀 Basketball with stuffing breaks.
🏃 Sprints with turkey sandwiches at the starting line.
🥧 Apple pie for volleyball.

The competition is fierce, the sportsmanship questionable, the laughter guaranteed.

I hope you find moments like that this weekend. The ones that remind you why you work so hard in the first place.

What are you grateful for this year? Drop it in the comments.

I was live on a webinar when the dog walked in.

He stared at me from three feet away, invisible in the camera, but I could feel his eyes and presence. He didn't care that I was on a public Zoom call. It was time to play.

His eyes showed enthusiasm that only dogs can have. Rarely see it in humans any more. It had been thirty minutes since our last fetch session. Clearly it was time to play, regardless of the live webinar.

We all laughed because the webinar was about burnout - the dog had his priorities straight...

Move and Groove 91 - the enthusiasm of dogs

We started a movement.

To help corporate professionals master their energy, focus, and flow.

Pro athletes train and recover every week to prepare for performance. 

On the contrary, most professionals are expected to perform every day without a lot of training and recovery, sometimes at the expense of their mental, emotional, and physical health. 

I was one of them, performing as a C-level executive at a public cybersecurity company, experiencing chronic stress and physical and mental health issues. I was performing but losing my joy and motivation.

...until I trained with some of the best performance coaches in the world and started incorporating better practices into my daily work life. I became a better leader as I was more relaxed, more engaged, and more fun to work with. 

Harvard Business Review coined the term “Corporate Athlete” in 2001 to describe this whole-person approach to performance. Building physical, emotional, and cognitive capacity enables corporate athletes to perform better for longer, without the serious impact from chronic stress. Corporate athletes are engaged, focused, confident, and challenged. Corporate athletes surf their energy levels for maximum positive impact, recover capacity quickly, and consistently perform at high levels (HBR, January 2001).

My Corporate Athlete Program helps you become a pro. 

The program develops your physical, emotional, and cognitive capacities.

So that you can perform better than you ever have before.

So that you can feel better than you ever have before. 

So that your work can be challenging and still feel effortless.

So that you can love your work again.

Be the corporate athlete. 

I am in your corner.

Hi, I am Eric and I help corporate athletes unlock their true potential using neuroscience backed techniques. Slots opening in December - see comments on how to sign up.

What drives teams and people to deliver audacious results? 

Waking up and feeling like you have electricity in your veins? 

I had the pleasure of joining Akash Ganapathi, Eric Speciel, Nate Meadows to talk about Flow vs. Burnout at the Daniel Opine Fireside Chat a couple weeks ago. 

Turns out there is a pretty good formula for this. People need:

– Curiosity
– Passion
– Purpose
– Autonomy
– Mastery

When you line all five up, you feel energized and motivated to do audacious things, with other people, for long periods of time. 

The trick is to make sure you are recovering along the way. It feels so good in this state that you don't want to leave it. However, this state is neurobiologically expensive and burnout can sneak up on you.

Taking the time for active recovery (not just rest and relaxation) makes all the difference in your ability to perform over long periods of time. 

What's your favorite way to recover?

Your bucket list is making your life smaller.

You've got 47 things you're "supposed" to do before you die.

Machu Picchu. Write a book. Learn Italian.

Meanwhile, you're missing Wednesday.

The actual texture of your life isn't in those 47 moments. It's in the 47,000 moments between them.

Having coffee with a friend.
Playing on the floor with your kid.
Being frustrated at the grocery store.
The panic before a big presentation.
The relief after.
All of it counts.

I ditched my bucket list three years ago to live in higher resolution.

I still have the big events. But it's the little events in preparation that are the important ones. 

Training feels different when you don't have expectations. I'm just running because moving through trees makes me feel alive.

Dinner with my wife hits different when it's not squeezed between "important" things. It IS the important thing.

Your nervous system knows the difference between obligation and engagement. It knows when you're performing life versus living it.

Those bucket list items? Half of them aren't even yours. They're borrowed dreams from others or some version of yourself that doesn't exist anymore.

What's on your bucket list that you're doing out of obligation rather than genuine desire?

Time to cross it off.

#bewell #ditchthebucketlist

Here's a simple tool to reduce anxiety before a big meeting, event, performance, called the 4-7-8 Technique (courtesy of Dr. Andrew Weil): 
 
1️⃣ Find a quiet spot 
2️⃣ Sit comfortably, back straight 
3️⃣ Inhale through your nose for 4 seconds 
4️⃣ Hold your breath for 7 seconds 
5️⃣ Exhale through your mouth for 8 seconds, making a "whoosh" sound 
6️⃣ Repeat 4 times 
 
This will activate the parasympathetic nervous system, lower heart rate and blood pressure, and flood your brain with oxygen, improving your focus. 

You got this!

Calm is not something that happens to you.

When you have space, time, and no disruptions.

That time will never happen.

Distractions, transgressions, and pain will always arise. 

Waiting for the perfect state is a perfect way to suffer.

Calm is a practice that can be trained.

Calm is a decision you make and re-make over and over.

Calm is when you feel the tightness in your chest, the anger arising, and you respond well anyway.

You then gain freedom from the trained reactions.

The event is just the event.

Neutral and temporary, cause and effect.

Take three breaths before you answer a challenge. Listen fully before planning your responding. Name the emotions, feel them, and respond well despite them. 

You have the capacity to hold these and still respond with high quality.

Be the beach, not the surf.

One of my favorite things is flowing through jumps and turns at the pump track with the kids.

We throw the bikes in the truck, head to the park, and surf through the jumps and turns.

We try to see how many laps we can do without pedaling.

You accelerate if you surf each jump perfectly.

We go home happy and worked.

In only ninety minutes...

There is all kinds of advice on time management.

...and it can be helpful.

I manage energy, focus, and flow instead.

Time is fixed. You get 24 hours a day like everyone else.

Energy, focus, and flow are variables you control.

Energy - When do I have the most cognitive juice? Am I recovering enough? Are my intrinsic motivations aligned with the work? Your brain works differently at 7 AM versus 3 PM. Schedule accordingly.

Focus - Do I know what done looks like? What are the first three moves? Am I working on the right thing or just the urgent thing? Define outcomes before you start moving.

Flow - Have I stacked the triggers and removed the blockers for myself and team? Created space for deep work? Flow is not mysterious, it is a well-known state.

Most productivity advice shows you how to optimize your time.

I optimize for quality throughput instead. I protect my peak hours, clarify my targets, and remove everything that breaks concentration.

The result? I work fewer hours and ship more value than I used to.

What would change if you managed your energy instead of your time?

Stuck on a writing problem for multiple days, my draft manuscript was getting worse.

I left my office and went for a walk with the dog. No podcast, no music, no news. Just the dog and the trees and the leaves and the squirrels. I forgot about the problem.

Twenty minutes in, the answer arrived. Not as a slow build, but as sudden clarity. Every word was clear...

Time management advice is mostly wrong.

You can't manufacture time.

You can only prioritize what you do with the time and energy that you have.

When you say "I don't have time to do X".

You are really saying "X is not a priority for me".

"I don't have time" is disempowering.

"I have prioritized other things" is empowering.

Because then you get to confront what your actual priorities are...

What if feeling more clarity, confidence, and engagement at work wasn’t just a dream?

It’s real. And it’s achievable.

Graduates of the Corporate Athlete Program are proof.

They report a 27% jump in goal clarity, a 19% boost in focus, a 31% increase in confidence, and 38% more engagement at work.

These are not anecdotal results, they are measured using a standardized assessment called the Flow Short Scale before and after the program.

Imagine waking up excited about your day, knowing exactly what to focus on, and executing with confidence.

Picture working on things that genuinely move your life and business forward, not just administrivia and useless meetings.

If you’re tired of feeling stuck, uninspired, or overwhelmed, the Corporate Athlete Program might be your answer.

Schedule some time to learn more.

No pressure. Just a complimentary session to help you see work differently.

Sometimes, all it takes is a new mindset for everything to change.

Are you ready to love your work again?

Let’s talk.

Thank you to everyone who made the last 12 months a fun ride 🙏

I moved to Los Angeles in 2023 in what has been the biggest pivot in a series of pivots.
