Shawn G., Executive @ Capgemini

The experience has been nothing short of life-changing . Thanks to Jason's expert mindset and executive coaching my personal and professional transformation has been remarkable. I worked as a senior leader at Silicon Valley Bank, and with the challenges that the bank faced, I was able to weather the storm with calm and support for others. This has been largely attributed to the newfound confidence I have gained through the time with Jason. I'm so much happier and free to excel in what's next for me in life, and I have Jason to thank.

Shweta D., Executive @ T-Mobile

Jason can cover many tough topics with ease since he pulls from a broad toolset to help any situation. He can cover old wounds with hypnotherapy or prepare you to change your habits to change your responses to the world. His methods are no-nonsense and to-the-point so that it lands at much greater speed than any other therapist/coach that I have worked with over many years. Keep an open mind to face yourself, and open everything to him for best results! The speed and the change in yourself will amaze you .

Sam M., Realtor

I was socially anxious and lacked confidence. Through a mixture of coaching and hypnotherapy [and NLP], Jason has helped me feel more confident and think more clearly . Jason is very talented at what he does, but as a person he is kind, trustworthy, empathetic, and intelligent. He can offer actionable solutions in order to become your best self and eradicate self defeating behavior . If you have the right mindset and are willing to do the hard work to better yourself, Jason can serve as a guide to your own self actualization.

Michael V., Pro Triathlete, Fitbit Exec.

It was a judgement free zone . The work we did was very productive. Jason follows up with relevant notes, content and suggestions. I won the race [Sonoma Triathlon] with a well developed toolbox that we put together. Jason was very invested in helping me as a person and as a competitor . It's not magic; it's subconscious work to formulate a new mindset that will help get past the challenges, which as a science and process minded person, I really appreciated. Jason is a great partner in that work!

Matt M., Dir. Finance @ Scandia

Jason is a fantastic hypnotherapist, life coach and career coach. He and his unique skillset helped me overcome difficult challenges in a relatively short period of time . He is intentional, thoughtful, practical, and honored me and my situation and background. I wholeheartedly recommend Jason to anyone who is truly wanting to improve their quality of life .

Codi C., Sys. Admin @ Duke University

If you need to make hard change quickly , contact Jason now. His expertise unknotted the roots making me cling to my comfortable yet miserable status quo job. He directed a safe path through unspoken trauma and deep-seated avoidance . Be prepared for Jason's "do you want this or not" approach. That is what got me what I was looking for: a new job - paying 53% more in a warmer part of the country.

Jason is an A.C.H.E.-recognized authority with degrees from Northwestern University and HTI. He spent years in tech leadership roles at Cendant, The Knot, Macrovision, and others.

Jason helps people move past debilitating fears and become self-motivated. He's their biggest cheerleader, ready to help navigate life and business.


Despite his own setbacks, including startup failures, stage mishaps, and even a serious skiing injury (complete dislocation of his femur from his hip), Jason's determination and a great team got him back on the slopes later that season.

FAQ

FREQUENTLY ASKED

  • Who does Jason work with?

    Jason works with highly-motivated individuals who find themselves in a place that they, for one reason or many, can't manage to or don't know how to propel themselves to new heights and happiness. He doesn't work with people who are pushed into this by others or who aren't ready to invest in themselves during and between meetings.

  • Do I need to do hypnotherapy to work with you?

    Of course you don't, but you'll probably want to when you learn how useful it can be and that you've already experienced a state of hypnosis many times in your life. Regardless, Jason's toolbox of techniques is wide and deep and can be adapted to ways that you feel comfortable and achieve similar results. You can cover this in detail on your Discovery call.

  • Insane adventures – really?

    These are entirely optional. The adventures are designed to take you out of your comfort zone. You'll be amazed what you're capable of doing and how empowered you will feel to do much less scary and abstract intellectual things in your life. There are many lessons that are learned from these challenges. You will conceive them together with Jason and ensure they are safe and thrilling, don't worry.

  • What is the experience of each meeting?

    In your first meeting which lasts 2 hours or so, Jason and you will craft the arc of the 12 weeks together in broad strokes. While there is always a plan, it's more important that you find yourself unstuck and with real momentum at the end of the program. That means customizing and adjusting throughout to respond to surprises and progress that have occurred since your last meeting. The second meeting and beyond are typically 1 hour, perhaps a bit longer, depending on the topic at hand.

  • Are the meetings in person or remote and 1:1, group, recordings?

    Meetings are 100% live and one-on-one, either in person or remote. If you are local in the San Francisco Bay Area, you can meet with Jason at his Orinda, CA office or do a hybrid of in person and remote meetings. If you are outside the area, remote works great -- in fact, 50% of Jason's clients are from all over the U.S. and world. There are also no recordings to watch. If you ask, Jason will happily create a free bonus customized hypnosis audio to enhance the work we will be doing. 

  • What is the length of the program and frequency of meetings?

    12 stages = 12 weeks = 12 meetings. You will typically meet on a weekly basis, which Jason has found allows us the breathing room to cover all areas of concern and build and execute on your plan. To account for vacations, holidays and other commitments, you can easily adjust dates along the way accordingly with some notice. Jason is also checking in with you by text or email weekly between meetings to encourage you and provide advice.

  • Can I continue after 3 months?

    Certainly. Three months has shown to be a solid timeframe to achieve meaningful change and gain momentum. You will structure a plan with Jason that makes sense for your situation as you get close to the end of the first period - typically moving to 2 or 3 times per month.

  • What is the cost of the program?

    This will be discussed in great detail along with payment options. Know that this program is a major investment in yourself and includes extensive time together and continual communication between meetings. You are gaining a cheerleader and a resource.
