My approach integrates Carl Jung’s philosophy of individuation, the process of becoming your true, authentic self by integrating the conscious and unconscious aspects of your psyche, with the wisdom of Eastern philosophy, which emphasizes balance, mindfulness, and interconnectedness. This is further grounded in neuroscience, which reveals how our brains adapt, rewire, and create new pathways for growth and transformation.

Central to my work is the concept of wilderness, which I define as an exploration of the untamed and unknown—both within ourselves and in the world around us. Wilderness is a journey into fear, adventure, and discovery, where the unfamiliar becomes a space for courage and transformation. Whether through metaphorical explorations of your inner wilderness or actual ventures into nature, we tap into the primal forces that inspire growth, clarity, and resilience.

Together, we explore how to align your inner and outer worlds, navigating fear and embracing the unknown to live a life true to your deepest values. This journey is rooted in exploration, reflection, and bold action, guiding you toward self-awareness, harmony, and purpose.

The Approach

I’m Adam, and my life has been shaped by a world of experiences—literally. I’ve lived and worked in diverse places, from Africa to Guatemala and India, immersing myself in roles as varied as corporate management, farming, teaching, construction, and disaster response. These experiences have given me a unique perspective on resilience, adaptability, and how we connect across cultures and environments.

My certifications reflect a deep commitment to personal growth and guiding others:

National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS) Wilderness Educator Certification: Earned during a month-long journey into the Yukon wilderness, navigating untamed mountains and rivers. This experience taught me how to guide people through both external and internal unknowns.

EMT Certification: Although I never practiced as an EMT, I completed the training to enhance my emergency preparedness, especially in backcountry and front-range environments. My worst fear would be encountering an accident and lacking the skills to stabilize a loved one in critical moments.

Wilderness First Responder Certification: Providing the skills and confidence to handle any medical scenario, ensuring safety in unpredictable environments.

Certified Jungian Life Coach (completion Q2 2025): Through the Creative Mind University, I’ve undertaken a year-long journey into creativity, psychology, and transformation.

Mindvalley Coaching Certification: My foundational training in personal growth and innovative coaching techniques.

Beyond my work, I’m a passionate photographer (all the pictures on this site are mine), outdoor enthusiast, adventurer, and gardener. and I’ve hiked over half of Colorado’s 14ers, tackling many Class 3 or above routes. I also play guitar and am deeply intrigued by sound and music, often finding time to create and explore its transformative power.

I live in Denver with my partner, Shandra, and our lively household of two dogs and three cats. Whether exploring naure’s wilderness, delving into the psyche, or capturing the world through my camera, I’m driven by a love of discovery and connection—and I’m here to help you uncover your own path forward.

The Coach

You’ve reached a point where surface-level solutions no longer cut it. You’re ready to dive deeper—to explore the roots of what’s holding you back and uncover the truth of who you are. No prior experience is needed—just a willingness to feel deeply, to embrace the unknown, and to open yourself to the transformative journey ahead

I firmly believe that every individual holds the power and wisdom within to solve their own challenges. My role as a coach is not to hand you answers, but to help you uncover the light and divine understanding already within you. Together, we’ll create meaning where there may have only been confusion, and clarity where there was once doubt.

Even when you feel alone in the struggle, you are not. Through our work, you’ll discover that connection—to yourself, to others, and to the greater whole—is always within reach. This is a space for exploring the depths of your mind, emotions, and soul, uncovering strength and purpose you might not yet realize you possess.

The journey can be tender, raw, and challenging, but it is also empowering and transformative. You are not alone in this—together, we’ll navigate the path to uncover your unique truth and bring it to light.
