Coaching
If you're committed to living the next chapter at a completely new level, and require an equally new level of support;
If you’re devoted to both the inner and outer world, and are prepared to approach daily life with the discipline of a monastic practitioner;
If you're uninterested in cookie-cutter personal development, and are seeking personalized, multidisciplinary, zero-BS support,

I’ve had a dream to find a coach that would push me to my edge but do it intelligently, elegantly, with humor and a sense that they would be on my side. Someone who I trust would tell me what I needed to hear to become the best version of myself. Well, I found that and much more when I met Dave.
Dave says words I have never heard, notices details in my behavior I have never seen. I call him the “coach that makes me squirm.” Comfortable? No. But I am becoming everything I always knew I could be. His insight and his delivery have truly transformed me.

I have done an incredible amount of work on myself, both personally and professionally, with some of the best coaches, teachers, and mentors. My work with Dave has eclipsed them all.
He has an innate ability to cut through the noise cleanly and clearly. Many times, he reveals truths I am unable to see on my own. I have never worked with anyone with such grounding insight and integrity.

The only way in which I can describe Dave’s coaching is that he is a master conductor.
His coaching embraces relationships, play, and all of life’s experiences as key access points for growth. As a result, I see shifts in my business at an unparalleled pace (like doubling revenue in the first six months). This is his magic—he works in a zone where my depth as a human flows hand-in-hand with my business expansion.

With Dave’s help, I experienced a massive and much needed re-ordering of my perception of the world and myself. This has opened space within me to receive precious opportunities well beyond my previous hopes—in both my career and my intimate relationships.
Of all the coaches I’ve met (and I know dozens), Dave has a uniquely “clean” way of holding presence, one that’s both vast and warm, unattached and yet sensitively engaged.
So if you’re asking yourself:
Should I reach out to Dave?
Would working with him really benefit me?
The answer I’d vote for would be a resounding “Hell yes.”

Dave Burns is the alchemist we all need on our side. I really believe that anything you can imagine, he can help make happen. For me—he helped me realize a more intuitive approach to business, and taught me new forms of embodiment and empathy in closing deals, that helped 5X my company's revenue in a year.
But more important than any of the business tools, he's helped elevate me spiritually, and inspired me far beyond what I could've ever done myself. He's a sage and I'm lucky to have him on my side.
