Hi, I’m James.

I’ve realized that the same strategic planning tools I’ve used in the corporate world—things like structured decision-making processes, solution mapping, financial projections, risk analysis—are actually amazing tools for personal lifestyle planning and transitions.

I don’t have all the answers, but I do believe that transitions don’t have to be chaotic. They can be structured, intentional, yet still fun with room for energy. You don’t have to struggle with a lack of clarity. Talk to someone! That’s what I’m always working toward in my own life, and if you’re in a similar place, I hope some of what I’ve learned can be helpful to you. 

If you’re thinking about a lifestyle or career change and have no idea where to start— Let’s figure it out together.
