Bonus Mile is where we go beyond the usual path.
These posts are the extra effort, the unexpected insights, and the conversations that don’t fit into the standard routine but still deserve the spotlight. Whether it’s an AI interview, an off-schedule deep dive, or something completely unexpected, the Bonus Mile is where the good stuff happens.
The seasons always change. They don’t have a choice.
Your personal growth? That’s a different story.
Just remember, high-achievers are great at checking boxes.
We’re terrible at pausing to see what we’ve built. I’ll go first

WARNING: you’re getting a look inside my brain.
1. Coaching Intake: before our first session, you will complete a brief questionnaire to help us focus our efforts.
2. Session #1 – Goal Project Kick-off: we will discuss your vision & begin to narrow our focus to the 1-2 priority goals.
3. Session #2 – Goal Project Charter: we will finalize your goal project “charter,” commit to your goal & start building your roadmap.
4. Session #3 – Goal Project Roadmap: we will finalize your roadmap to success, including your “wills” and “won’ts.”
5. Sprinting To Success: we will work together to execute your roadmap in 2-week cycles called “sprints.” During these sprints, we will meet biweekly to review progress and plan the next sprint.
6. Final Coaching Session – Goal Project Wrap-up: once you have reached your goal, we will meet to celebrate your wins, review what you’ve learned & commit to your plan to keep the changes alive.
