Coaching at the Threshold

Who I Work With

You may be leading a team, building something visionary, or carrying a quiet ache for what’s next.

I work with founders, executives, artists, and changemakers who are navigating meaningful thresholds — not just to improve what they do, but to evolve who they are.

If you’re sensing a shift — in identity, in purpose, or in what truly matters — this space is designed to meet you there.

What Coaching Offers

Sometimes it’s a whisper. Sometimes a pounding in your chest. A vision, a dream, or a knowing that refuses to be quiet.

Coaching with me offers a space to listen — deeply — to what’s calling for your attention and expression. It’s a process of tuning in, making meaning, and moving toward what wants to be made real.

I bring a grounded intuition and a practical lens — helping you bridge insight with action, presence with momentum. This work may unsettle your status quo, but it will support you in crossing into new terrain with clarity, courage, and integrity.

Often, there is a “something” — not of your own making, yet unmistakably meant for you. Coaching becomes the place where you listen.

Are you the source of your inspiration, or is something more mysterious asking to move through you? This is where we begin.

How I Work

My coaching isn’t a formula. It’s a presence.

I meet you at the edge — where strategy alone stops serving, and deeper intelligence begins.

We’ll work with clarity, curiosity, and compassion. We’ll listen for the subtle disruptions that are actually invitations to evolve. You’ll be met as a whole person — not just a role or a title.

Whether we’re navigating leadership, legacy, or a quiet inner ache… the real work is always the same: becoming more deeply you.

Coaching Pathways

There’s a moment — often quiet, sometimes disruptive — when something deeper begins to stir. Coaching with me is designed to meet you in that moment: at the edge between what’s known and what’s calling.

For founders, leaders, artists, and changemakers ready to navigate what’s next — with clarity, presence, and grounded guidance.

• Focused, high-impact sessions to support key decisions, pivots, or emergent vision
• Custom engagements — by invitation or referral — for seasoned leaders sensing a threshold of legacy, purpose, or soul
• A space for you to pause, listen, and move forward aligned with what truly matters

For deeper work, we begin with a conversation. Some are referred, some invited — and some simply find themselves here, as if called. That quiet knowing is often the truest beginning.

A Note from Patrick

I’ve sat with founders who reached the summit, only to feel empty. I’ve walked with CEOs who built success they no longer resonated with. And I’ve stood at the edge of my own thresholds, unsure what would come next.

What I’ve learned is this: transformation doesn’t arrive on command — it comes when we’re ready to listen.

Coaching, for me, is a sacred conversation. It’s where intellect meets intuition. Where strategy meets soul.

If you’re here, something in you may already know: it’s time.
