I can say, without hesitation, Dave's coaching has been the most impactful thing (outside of having kids) in my LIFE in the last 5 years. Both personally and professionally, he's helped me evolve tremendously as a leader/person. When we were looking for a coach, we wanted someone who could understand us (and had been in our shoes). Dave has been an entrepreneur, investor and so many other things. What makes Dave unique is he can flex from spiritual to strategic to highly tactical behaviors/mindsets. Most of all, he cares deeply about helping others and his commitment to this purpose is remarkable. In terms of "results," since he started working with us, our internal culture/engagement surveys have improved double digit percentages each year, our retention has improved each year, we get regular anecdotal feedback from employees that we have changed... and I just feel happier and present all the time.. Thank you Dave!

I've had the pleasure and privilege to be a coaching client of Dave's for the past several years. Through our work, Dave has helped me achieve breakthroughs on many aspects of how I work with others, and how I face questions and challenges in my personal and work life. Beyond our coaching calls, he's given me a framework I apply regularly to how I'm relating to varied situations, so his impact goes far beyond the calls themselves. If you're looking for a coach who bridges head and heart, personal & professional, and the everyday and the cosmic, you couldn't ask for a better partner than Dave.

Dave is like Yoda, but for business and way better looking. He’s empathetic & strategic, has built successful businesses of his own, and cares deeply about helping founders see their greatness. I’ve spent the past 6 months working with him and it’s been transformative.

Dave is a rare combination. He's got the intellect of a hedge fund manager, the real-world experience as a start-up founder, and the wisdom of a world-class coach.

It was the single best personal development thing I've ever done on a time investment → ROI perspective... I still feel in a state of flow even to this day; its been over a month since the retreat!

By far, the single most important investment I've made in myself was to work with Dave as my first business went through an acquisition and second one was getting off the ground. In my position as CEO, I've always felt that the responsibility of dealing with the deepest darkest challenges alone, and I've tried to shield times of stress from employees, partners and family. When I started working with Dave, for the first time I had a sounding board, someone who'd listen to me with support and love, not judgement. By being able to truly open up to and share what I was experiencing, I was able to find solutions to the real problems that were underlying the surface level issues, and run my business in a way that felt much more true to who I am and what I want.

Inner Game of Entrepreneurship was absolutely fantastic. Being a startup founder can be hard and lonely. The tools Dave presented us have tangibly shaped my outlook on life and how I lead my business. Dave's authenticity and wisdom has been absolutely profound to experience and I am deeply appreciative of the upgrades I have received from his work. I highly recommend every entrepreneur, leader, or anyone interested in upgrading their life to spend time and money with Dave. I am personally looking forward to continuing a relationship with Dave and the community around the Inner Game of Entrepreneurship.

Dave and this program have been a gamechanger in transforming how I view the world including entrepreneurship, my relationship with myself, my relationship with others, and my passion and purpose. I’m buzzing from how amazing this experience has been for me and everyone close to me. The fractal of my world/relationships is reverberating with these practices and reframes and stories. In the last amazing conversation with the group I felt very palpably how others in our cohort felt their lives transformed by this experience too. Highly recommend this course for founders who want to be a better version of themselves and take their mindsets, companies, lives to the next level.

Dave is a mensch! I would love to have him as a coach, and I can see so many ways that he would help me be more ambitious while also feeling better about the work I do, the risks I take, and the way I am with others. This class felt like a taste of what's possible if you're committed to self-awareness.
