Your Guide from the Side
Customized Advising and Immersive Experience Design
From your career path to everyday bumps, life isn't always smooth.
When it's especially rough or you simply want a new heading, it's time to sort things out. I know you know this. But...
When it's truly unfamiliar ground, it helps to have a guide join you on the trail for a stretch - a guide at your side - your Trailside Guide.


Bringing deep experience to our advising conversations, trajectory changes, and immersive adventures.
Background Numbers
Step Back. Reset.
Create.
Sometimes we need to take a timeout and step back.
To gain perspective and reset.
And to create a new game plan in compelling spaces, either by ourselves or with people that matter...
(...and don't let your "I wish I had the time" voice distract you.
At some point, you just need to make the time...right?)

Trailside Guide
Services and Experiences
Everything starts with you. Your challenges, questions, quandaries.
No cookie-cutters, no online courses, no pre-packaged claims of 'life-changing' results. Just you and me.
I ask and listen. We build the roadmap together. You follow the compass. And I'm alongside you all the way.
Some starting points and paths to consider:
INTRO CHAT
ThThe starting point.
Let's get to know one another.
Ask and answer questions.
FREE
ACUTE FOCUS
The thorny stuff. Acute, situational work:life challenges.
Typically 3-6 sessions.
HOURLY or PACKAGE PRICING
TRAJECTORY CHANGERS
The big stuff.
Think career transitions, burnout, early career issues, pre/post-retirement questions, etc.
Typical duration over several weeks.
PACKAGE PRICING
GROUP IMMERSIVES
The fun stuff!
Different from advising, this is about invigorating connections. Highly tailored group travel experiences to connect with family, friends, or your key social groups. Secret ingredients include social impact and meaning-making!
TAILORED PRICING
Pricing varies by engagement and is in line with typical coaching fees.
Pricing also varies by 'ability to pay.' An advisee just starting a career in social work will not pay the same as one who just sold their business.

“Andy designed and led the best trip ever!!! I didn't know how we'd ever pull in everyone's ideas AND make the trip special...but he did!”
