Contact me directly. I used this process to move from professional music performance to owning and operating a small manufacturing business at age 34: whatever your situation, I'm here to help you do something similar for yourself.

Questions

Who can you help?

Specifically, I’m interested in helping men and women who are in a similar position to where I found myself in my late 20s/early 30s: 

1) Done well, but not well enough to never work again. 

2) Good toolbox of leadership, discipline, and personal skills, but little idea how to apply these skills elsewhere.   

3) Little relevant formal education. 

4) Tripping over and over on the same personal issues (alcohol, drugs, poor emotional coping skills, time management, self-discipline, poor mental hygiene etc).

How can you help me with my transition journey?

I offer a proven recipe that has worked for myself and other athletes and artists. I will share this recipe with you for no cost, and will help you implement it if you want my help, time, or mentorship.

Will you connect me with others who've done this already in my sport or discipline? I'm not sure I'll relate to a former concert pianist?!?

I've found it really important to pair each person with someone who did what they did, and does what they hope to do. I will find you a mentor who matches your background (hockey with hockey, dancer with dancer) and went through that transition successfully 5-15 years ago.

I want your help but don't want to tell you who I am?

Simply create an anonymous email account, and use that to communicate with me. I don't need to know who you are. I'm happy to help by email or otherwise communicate anonymously. I'm not a jock sniffer.

What's in it for you?

What's in it for me is the joy of helping others in a really hard time of life. It felt to me like one second I was on stage starring in London on a Friday night, the next I was sitting in a bathrobe in Calgary on a Tuesday morning with no idea what to do. I've stumbled on a formula that I have now shared with many, and it gives me so much satisfaction to pay it forward. I've been fortunate in business to date, and can afford to give my time in this way.

As Tim McGraw sings so beautifully, "When you get where you're going, don't forget turn back around / And help the next one in line".
