Do you fear you’ll never do anything worthwhile?

Let Before You Begin be your guide to change the way you are currently engaging the world, so you can experience different results. Results that align with what matters most to you. When you apply Compass Form, this book’s simple framework, you learn to navigate uncertainty, settle on a decision, and, when necessary, adjust course to stay in alignment with what matters most to you.

Compass Form is about isolating decisions, so you address them specifically and clear some of the chaos that comes with trying to make many decisions at once or trying to make the “perfect” decision. Since life is ambiguous and chaotic, it isn’t about predicting the future. The skill you build with Before You Begin is learning how to quickly make sense of the chaos and being content with the best decision possible given the reality of your circumstances.

That’s what you’ll learn to do in this book through its:
Example scenarios
Depictions of real people applying Compass Form
Reflection questions
Practical application activities

Get out of stagnation and frustration and start making real progress towards what matters most to you with Before You Begin.

I listen a lot, (and now I’m helping others get stronger physically)

and I’ve been listening for a long time. Been showing others how it's done for slightly less.

Leaders who are better at listening...
differentiate themselves.

Leaders who are strong physically will last longer. 

Listening like a lack of mobility won't just fix itself. It will require a change. 

I help guide leaders to better listening. I also help you workout in the comfort of your own home with minimal equipment. 

Let’s work together to make the changes you’ve been thinking about.

turn your audience into your champions: ignite curiosity 🔥 scaffold understanding ✔ maximize impact 🚀. The PresentBetter Program for lab research groups & academic institutes -now over 7,000 researchers served.

Every piece of research, when effectively communicated, can spark change. 

In academia. In careers. In society.

But too often, important findings remain hidden, their potential unrealized. 
The importance/impact of research gets:
●	Buried under layers of complexity
●	Communicated without connecting
●	Overwhelmed by scientific terms and processes

This is why I created PresentBetter: 
To transform how your researchers share their ideas with the world. 
Together we distill years of complex study into clear, compelling narratives that resonate with and inspire audiences.
By amplifying researcher’s voices, we elevate the ability to communicate research in ways that:
●	Moves people
●	Propels careers forward
●	Bridges the gap between academia and society

Through PresentBetter.org, I offer tailored solutions to meet diverse needs:
1.	Individual Coaching: One-on-one sessions crafted for your specific presentation challenges.
2.	Lab and Department Workshops: Small group training to elevate your entire team's communication skills.
3.	Institutional Programs: Comprehensive, scalable solutions for universities and research institutions.
4.	Conference and Event Preparation: Targeted coaching for high-stakes presentations that can define careers.
5.	Online Courses: Self-paced learning for researchers seeking flexibility.

We aim to create a future where every researcher's voice resonates with clarity and impact.



PS Wondering if too good to be true? Here's a link to the talk I coached that was voted the best 3 minute research presentation in North America last year.

I work with individuals and organizations to help researchers present better. I start with helping them find their story and then coach them to deliver it in the most effective way.  Since Covid, my work has focused around helping people navigate the shifts to presenting online: 
👉 your voice (tone, pace, volume, pausing) remains your most important tool, and embracing the attitudes and feeling you want to convey is your most critical skill.
👉 stories still rule: tech interaction tricks are useful, but don't get sucked too far down that rabbit hole because stories are still the most effective driver of deep engagement, learning and memory.
👉 understand the impact of body language: while it has become less impactful on the audience, it still influences your own confidence and energy.
👉 the movement of visuals in person competes with your ability to engage your audience, but online, that same movement helps capture and retain attention: adjust accordingly.
