The best way to describe what I do is to say - I give really good advice. On what? Well, just about everything from bullies to business to parenting to how to deal with difficult people. My fans and customers are rarely specific about what I did for them, preferring to tell me that I simply transformed their lives and that they approach everything differently now. The best part is that everything I teach is practical, pragmatic and easy to understand and put into practice. The most common comment I get is "why didn't I think of that." I don't just help people solve their problems, I help them solve their problems in a way that they feel REALLY good about. I do this by teaching people how to think more effectively about how they approach problem solving in the first place. A lot of people think that learning how to think better is boring and they don't understand how it is related to morality. But it is actually the key to better relationships and being a better, happier person. I am a Humanist and if you let me I will teach you the 3 essential interrelated life skills that form the basis of the Humanist approach. How to make better decisions through critical thinking. How to improve your relationships through compassion. And how to infuse your life with meaning and purpose by prioritizing your ethics. These skills are applicable to all areas of life and every endeavor.
