John brings decades of experience from the courtroom to the coaching space, guiding attorneys to say “no” to burnout and “yes” to a legacy they’re proud of by realizing their potential and optimizing their life. With 20+ years as a practicing attorney including time as a Deputy Attorney General, law firm partner, and firm owner, John understands the unique pressures of the legal profession. Today, he coaches lawyers on reengineering their mindset, optimizing their systems, and rediscovering the joy in their work and life. When he’s not coaching exceptional attorneys, you’ll find John experiencing the world with Michelle, his wife of more than thirty years, riding his mountain bike, or walking his yellow Lab, Olive.
