Reactivity is a tax you pay each day. Its cost is your happiness and agency.
When high performers try to improve their wellbeing, what generally comes up is doing "more". But the real change happens when you do less of the things that pull you down, whether that's avoidance or looping around the same thought patterns.
We train this like a sport: a clear diagnosis of what breaks, the reps you need to do, and progress measured consistently. As your reactivity drops, your baseline increases, and a happier version of you takes more action, more easily.
Drop the instinctive reactivity
Notice the mechanism behind self-conflict clearly enough that it stops running you.
Increase the baseline
Less stickiness and faster recovery for recurring issues, so ordinary Tuesdays get closer to your previous peak days.
Develop high agency
Less internal drag, leading to streamlined actions and faster, conscious decisions. You can just do things.
Aim bigger, towards your ideal lifestyle
Ambitions that make you feel alive, instead of following other people's "templates".
What changes, in their words.
I'm deeply grateful I worked with Michael. Two years later, the changes have stuck. Bad moods just aren't as sticky anymore: I get far less wrapped up in stories about how I feel, staying present is much easier, and I've noticed I'm no longer averse to whatever life is asking of me. I'm more productive when I want to be, and also more willing to make room for my emotions when they come up. I'm a much better partner and friend, because I can actually be with other people's suffering without panicking inside. And I'm far more ambitious. I'm doing things my past self would have found unthinkable, like quitting my job to follow my dreams.
Ever since I started working with Michael, my progress has catalyzed tremendously. His approach is straightforward and direct, his guidance compassionate and humorous. If you're looking to seriously reduce your suffering, Michael is your guy.
Working with Michael has been nothing but a gift. He brings a compassionate, generous and loving quality of attention to the people he works with.
I had very little meditation experience and it was a breath of fresh air. Regularly talking with Michael kept me on track, so I progressed much faster without the usual diversions.

The way I work
How working together actually looks: the approach, the calls, and what to expect along the way.
Read →Your suffering floor matters more than your peaks
Why raising the baseline beats chasing great days.
Read →Reactivity is a trainable skill
Treating your mind like a sport, not a spiritual project.
Read →A training plan instead of homework.
Create structure to have a simple next step. Work on costly experiential loops to improve your capacity for action.
Clarify the blocks
We'll find the pattern taxing you the most, whether it's avoidance, a conflict or plain procrastination.
Watch it in real time
Direct pointers separate sensations, narrative and identity, so the loop loses its grip. Most people notice a shift within 1-2 calls.
Lock in the gains
With tiny reps in difficult situations, whether at home or at work, plus somatic resets, the new floor survives the pressure of daily life.
Act from clear signals
Bring the change to all domains. Bigger actions, taken on clean fuel, not fumes.
Conversations on enjoying it all.
with Yan-David Erlich · Investor, B Capital
Whether this work kills ambition (it doesn't), feeling more agency afterwards, using dissatisfaction as fuel for change, and the newfound magic of chores.
