I found Rob to be extremely passionate about helping others. He is an excellent listener and genuine in his responses. He was upfront about how he could and could not help me. I certainly would recommend anyother looking for starting their own business or a side hassel to get in touch with him. The time spent is well worth it!!!

Alan Jose

I had the privilege of working with Rob after major life and career events left me spinning and in "survival mode.” Rob helped visualize my desired future and how to make the space to start moving into that direction. He helped me identify skills, resources and networks at my disposal, and held me accountable in the process of taking control of my present, and to create the space to become a better version of me. A career coach is not a therapist and not an instructor. He is much more no-nonsense, result-oriented, time-bound, and unafraid to push or help directly. Amongst the three options we explored: career move, franchising and from-scratch entrepreneurship we chose the later. The most valuable experience for me in working with Rob is realizing that he was personally invested in betting on me, and making my success, our success. Life sometimes brings you what you need when you need it. I am truly grateful it brought me to Rob.
