Why I do this
I spent years in high-pressure environments wrestling with anxiety, rumination, and an always-on mind. The combination of Fetters-based direct seeing and simple somatic resets cut my suffering ~90% and raised my day-to-day baseline. Now I help founders and operators get that same floor—without dulling their edge.
Read a little more
My approach is practical: short cues inside real days, decision hygiene around high-stakes calls, and gentle but firm accountability. Nothing mystical, nothing performance-killing—just fewer loops and more clear action.
What working together changes
90% less suffering
(client-reported)
Fetters-based pointers + somatic resets reduce daily tightness & rumination within weeks.
2× faster clarity
(after shocks)
Short “ROD” protocol shrinks the refractory period so clean choices return quickly.
-50% loops
fewer re-decisions
Map recursion triggers; add stop-rules + pre-decisions. Less ping-pong, more execution.
9/10 days
baseline over spikes
Raise the floor with practice design that fits your calendar and sticks.
Why this works in practice
Accountability that sticks
We design tiny moves inside your actual calendar and follow up on them—gentle, consistent, unavoidable.
Faster clarity after shocks
Short refractory period protocol (ROD) shrinks spin-up time so you can choose cleanly again.
Dual-track change
Wake up (see clearly) + Clean up (unwind somatically) + Show up (operate) + Grow up (wider view).
Surface the avoided
We map the “good reasons” that stall action and create simple stop-rules so decisions stop boomeranging.

method diagram
Wake up · Clean up · Show up · Grow up
- Wake up — Direct perception (fetters-based) to see sensations, grasping, and stories clearly.
- Clean up — Somatic unwinding + shadow work so change holds.
- Show up — Decision hygiene + executive cadence under pressure.
- Grow up — Adult-development moves for wider perspective and leadership.
Proof, not promises

€2,500–€10,000 / month
Weekly 60–75 min · Async check-ins · On-call windows · Custom practice & metrics
What the first month looks like
- Fetters 1–3 / Stream Entry: direct pointers to see it clearly (often within 1–2 calls).
- Fetters 4–5: weaken attachment–aversion (short cues embedded in your days).
- Cadence & proof: 2–6 week measurement so we both know the floor is rising.
VIP Day (Bucharest / SF)
€8,500 day rate
Pre-work diagnostic · Full-day reset · 30-day follow-through · Private, confidential
Straight talk: preemptive, concierge, no games
- Radical fit check: your interests over my pipeline—if coaching isn’t the lever, I’ll say so and point to a better lever.
- Fast ROI hypothesis: name one costly loop + a 2–6 week measurement before we start.
- Scope & cadence: lightweight practices that live in your calendar; defined on-call windows.
- Boundaries: executive coaching, not clinical care; I refer out when clinical serves better.
- Confidentiality: strict confidentiality; NDA on request.
- Proof over hype: short clips, named quotes, and your results. No pressure tactics.
