What started as a journey to learn a simple method to improve my mountain biking skills has led to incredible personal transformation with a way of thinking that allows me to lead my life with intention and more love for myself and others.
Learning the Universal Method has given me the ability to overcome challenges with relationships, manage an autoimmune disease, and embrace more creativity and joy in my life.
Besides my own learning, with Chris's coaching my daughter has overcome PTSD, major anxiety, and severe depression. She is becoming more capable of problem-solving and maintaining her mental balance. I am overjoyed to see the changes she has made and her progress towards becoming a happy and productive adult.
Chris is a truly extraordinary coach and human being. He always provides his students with a kind and safe space. He honors each student without judgement and will always find a way for learning to progress. Students who commit to their learning will create amazing changes in their lives.
The Universal Method way of thinking allows me to create my life intentionally, love myself and others more fully, and to achieve dreams I have always wanted but never thought possible.

I've only been receiving Universal Method Coaching for 12 weeks so far, but getting help from Chris during the past 3 months has helped me substantially in several ways. He has taught me so much about how to navigate relationships with family and friends.
He offers simple techniques and learning strategies that have been very useful in dealing with difficult situations. He has been very good at helping me facilitate positive outcomes.
I recommend UM coaching because it is practical and it works if you stay the course. There is so much happiness that can be gained from it. Each week, I feel like I’ve been on an epic journey to some unknown destination and have safely returned.
The one word I would use to describe my coaching experience is “exciting”. There is so much new learning, particularly related to the brain and how it works. Chris provides strategies that have helped me move away from reaction-based thinking in order to create more empowering changes in my life. That process of personal growth is “exciting”.

Before I started Universal Method Coaching, I felt stuck, helpless, and hopeless in my career and my personal life. There were so many problems I wanted to solve.
I knew I was ready for change, but didn’t know what or how, so when a colleague recommended Chris, I decided to give it a try. I had no idea the impact his coaching would have.
Six months into Chris’s Coaching, I’ve been able to:
-
Reset my circadian rhythm, sleep better, and have mornings that I don’t hate anymore.
-
Adjust my feelings and thoughts toward current situations and people in my life who were making me miserable before.
-
Improve my focus and productivity at work and finally complete a project that has taken up too much of my time.
-
Begin thinking about what post-career life might look like going forward.
One of the things I’m most happy about working with Chris is that the weekly calls are fun, but they’re also a chance to check in, gain perspective, and learn new things. Perspective on a week-to-week basis is pretty powerful.
What is surprising to me is that the longstanding effects of issues from my past are resolving without slogging through stories of what happened and revisiting old, painful feelings.
I recommend Universal Method Coaching because it will open up possibilities, whether they’re ones you gave up on years ago or ones you haven’t even considered yet. Keep an open mind and be willing to explore your possibilities, even if they seem impossible to you right now.
If you begin coaching, trust the process. Try the missions and see the difference and your progress for yourself, even if your first impression is “this will never work” or “I don’t think that will work for me.” The missions that appear to be the least related to what you’re working on seem to bring the biggest gains.
If there's one word I would use to describe my experience with Chris, it would be “fun” - no B.S.

Before Universal Method Coaching, I was in a holding pattern. I was fresh out of college with a business degree I had implemented with little success and no motivation backing it, but I was neglecting that reality.
I soon realized that I had to rethink my options because of the overwhelming self-serving interests in the corporate world. The path that I had haphazardly chosen was, in fact, a bad one. My internal and external directions were off course, and I needed to rectify the situation. So, when the opportunity to learn the Universal Method presented itself, I was happy I was open enough to try and learn.
As a general sceptic and realist, I was not expecting much from this coaching. From the initial interest call, I was intrigued, and as time grew, so did my interest in this new way to move through life. The self-actualization and reflection that are involved were not what I set out to gain, but as time went on, I can say now that the year was enriching in various ways. Every call left me with a smile on my face and a new outlook on some aspect of the Method.
Implementing the Universal Method could enrich many parts of life that people have conceded to their habits or fears. The Method is the only way I have clarified my path forward.
Empowering; I can think of no other word to describe that year of coaching. This empowerment has got me back in school and studying to be a professional pilot and has enriched my relationships with those around me. I was able to improve my relationship with my parents tenfold.
I think this coaching could be helpful for every person; it is a unique experience tailored to your personality and goals, to which anything is possible.

Before I met Chris, I was overwhelmed with stress because I did not know what to do to help my daughter. I started Universal Method Coaching to learn how to better communicate with her to help with her anxiety and depression.
Throughout coaching, Chris always gave an impartial view without any criticism. Chris always delivered his suggestions with kindness and helped me celebrate the wins I had accomplished during my coaching sessions.
Chris gave me the tools I needed to make changes to bring balance back into my life. His coaching helped me overcome things holding me back that I thought were so important but were just taking up precious time I should have spent with my family. Because of the changes I've made through coaching, I can enjoy and have a more fulfilling life.
The most important thing I have accomplished during my meetings with Chris is improving my communication skills with my daughter. My ability to better understand myself and my daughter and have a more loving relationship with her has exceeded my expectations.
I recommend coaching with Chris. Please go for it. It was life-changing. You will not be disappointed. He is an amazing coach! He is compassionate, very supportive, professional, and a great listener. He has found his true calling, wanting to help people. He has significantly impacted my life and my whole family, including helping me recreate a deeper relationship with my husband.
