But Something Still Feels Off.
- You've hit your numbers, built the team, earned the respect — but at home you feel like a stranger in your own life.
- Your partner says you're "not present." Your kids are growing up while you're grinding. And deep down, you know they're right.
- You've read the books. Done the masterminds. Even tried therapy. But nothing has unlocked the part of you that actually knows how to be
- You keep defaulting to control, logic, and isolation when what you crave is connection, depth, and being truly known.
- You're exhausted from performing a version of yourself that gets results — but costs you everything that matters.
The missing piece isn't more strategy. It's not another framework for "optimization." It's a part of you that was never given permission to exist.
"The most powerful man in the room isn't the one who dominates it. He's the one who doesn't need to."
— The Relational Authority™ Principle
The Relational Authority™ Framework
Three phases. Six months. A complete rewiring of how you show up — in every room, every relationship, every mirror.
Initiation
We go to the root. Before you can lead anyone else, you have to meet the parts of yourself you've been running from. This is where the real work begins.
- Gene Keys design deep-dive
- Attachment pattern mapping
- Somatic awareness foundations
- Identifying core relational wounds
- Breaking the performance cycle
Integration
Awareness without integration is just information. Here, we rewire your nervous system and relational patterns so the shift becomes permanent.
- Co-regulation practices
- Relational Life Therapy tools
- Breathwork + somatic processing
- Rebuilding relational capacity
- Practicing vulnerability as strength
Inspiration
This is where the man you've been becoming meets the life you've been building. You stop performing authority — and start embodying it.
- Leading from wholeness
- Deep partnership recalibration
- Legacy alignment work
- Embodied confidence integration
- Sustaining the transformation
Ready to Stop Performing and Start Living?
This isn't for everyone. It's for the man who's done enough to know that more isn't the answer.

- A felt sense of wholeness you've never experienced before
I Built This Because I Needed It First.
I was separated from my mother on day one. Adopted twice before I was 14 months old. That planted something deep — a fear of rejection and a belief that I had to perform to be worth keeping.
For years, I did what most men do. I overachieved. I optimized. I built a life that looked incredible from the outside. Then my wife walked out, and the whole thing collapsed.
That's when I stopped trying to fix myself and started learning how to relate to myself. Everything changed — my confidence, my presence, my capacity for real intimacy. Not because I found a better strategy, but because I finally met the parts of me I'd been abandoning since day one.
Relational Authority™ is the method that emerged from 20 years of that journey — combining Gene Keys, Relational Life Therapy, attachment science, somatic work, and deep intuitive coaching into something that creates lasting change.
"Working with Mike brought parts of me home I didn't even know were missing. His presence alone creates a space where the armor just falls away. I've never experienced anything like it."
What Happens Inside the Container
You've shown me a whole other way to be. I've never had someone reflect my inner world back to me with that much clarity. I feel like a just touched creator again, ina way that's actually in my body. Now that I have integrated some of my past my wife is saying things like "For the first time in 20yrs I feel emotionally met.The relationship we have cultivated is helping me feel safe in the world. This connection has healed the wounds I got from my dad. I have needed this. This container work and Our VIP day changed something in me in a big way. I have a confidence and a deeper trust in life now. Thank you Mike for all your guidance and support.
For 15 years, I was just going through the motions. As a business owner, I was always the 'top dog'—the rock for everyone else—but internally, I was stuck in my head, neglecting myself, and living with constant anxiety. I eventually hit rock bottom where my nervous system just shut down. Working with Mike was the best decision I've ever made. He provided a safe, non-judgmental space that allowed me to drop out of my head and finally start feeling again. I've gone from a week of darkness to living on 'cloud nine.' My relationships are stronger, I'm more present, and for the first time in a decade, my happiness isn't forced—it's natural. If you're a man sitting on the fence, don't wait for the breakdown. Make the investment in yourself now.
I’ve felt that fluidity of the moment-to-moment work actually becoming the backbone of my day-to-day. The resistance is starting to feel a lot less... I’m moving through old patterns in a more meaningful way. The boundary work we’ve done—I’m really feeling the positive impacts in every avenue of my life. It’s exciting... I don’t feel like I’ve ever had this kind of experimental space to figure out where I want to put my energy. I’m starting to feel calm in situations that used to feel intense. I’m existing differently. This is the exact pocket I’m in. I feel like I’ve got new tools, and I’m totally into deeper peace. I’m ready to go.
I spent years in masterminds and therapy. This was the first time I felt something actually shift in my body, not just my mind. Mike helped me find the ground I'd been searching for my whole life. It feels so good to be connected to my unique God given gifts and know how to bring them to my marriage and work in a way that has lead to more confidence and inner peace. I get to lead my life with more Relational Authority now. It's deeply fulfilling. This was the piece that was missing. My prayer is that more men discover Mike and this work. He creates such a safe space which was so important for me because my whole life I pushed through things so I didn't have to feel what was underneith. The safety let me release what I stuffed deep down. I feel like a whole new man now.

This Container Isn't for Everyone
This Is for You If
- You've achieved a level of success most would envy — but you know something fundamental is missing
- You're willing to go to the uncomfortable places, not just talk about them
- You want a guide, not a guru — someone who'll walk beside you, not above you
- You're ready to stop outsourcing your emotional life to your partner
- You believe the next level of your life requires the next version of you
This Is Not for You If
- You're looking for a quick fix or a 30-day transformation
- You want someone to tell you what to do rather than help you discover who you are
- You're not willing to be vulnerable or challenged
- You think personal development is something you've "completed"
- You want to optimize your life without examining what's underneath it
Frequently Asked
What makes this different from therapy or other coaching?
Most therapy helps you understand your patterns. Most coaching helps you set goals. This does neither — and both. The Relational Authority™ method works at the intersection of your nervous system, your relational patterns, and your unique Gene Keys design. It's not talk therapy. It's embodied transformation with a guide who's done the work himself.
I'm already in a good place. Is this still for me?
Most of my clients are high-functioning, successful men. That's exactly the point. The question isn't whether your life is working — it's whether you're fully alive in it. If you sense there's a depth you haven't accessed yet, this is for you.
What's the difference between the two containers?
The Initiated Man ($15K) is the complete 6-month Relational Authority™ journey through all three phases. The Inner Circle ($100K) is a year-long immersion with weekly sessions, in-person retreats, couples work, and the full depth of what this method can do — for the man who's ready to go all the way.
How much time does this require each week?
Sessions are bi-weekly (roughly 60-90 minutes). Between sessions, I'll give you integration practices that take 10-15 minutes daily. The real work happens in how you show up to your life — which doesn't require extra time, just new awareness.
What if my partner isn't on board with this?
They don't need to be. This work is about you first. And in my experience, when the man shifts, the relationship shifts. Most partners notice changes within the first few weeks — and they lean in once they feel the difference.
How do I know if I'm ready?
If you're asking this question, you probably are. The men who thrive in this container are the ones who feel the pull — even if they can't fully articulate what they're looking for yet. That's what the application call is for.
The Man Your Family Needs
Is the Man You Need to Become.
Six months from now, you'll either be the same man having the same conversations — or you'll be someone your partner, your kids, and your reflection in the mirror actually recognizes.
