Hi, I'm Michael I help individuals to gain clarity about what they want their life to be without suffering from indecision and worry.
I am a Baby Boomer. We were raised to go to work for a company, work 20, 30 even 40 years and then retire.
However, we are living longer than our parents and realize that we have more in us, we want to make a difference, perhaps you are searching for your second act. Your past does not equal your future. The time has come for you to do what you always wanted to do.
