Do any of these sound like you?

-
Need to level up in your leadership or management position?
-
Need to inspire your team, company, or investors?
-
Wondering why you're cycling through hires?
-
Feeling the overwhelm as a founder or leader building visibly?
As an exited founder and leader at companies like Dropbox and Glossier, I've worked creatives, scientists, and technologists and helped them get the most out of themselves.
You'll get tactical advice to help and learn your patterns that contribute to the chaos.
What to expect
There are two components of working together: a) working through the tactical situation that's causing you to seek help and b) round out your leadership foundation by identifying and overcoming your limiting beliefs. You'll get tactical input to get through the situations, and critically learn about yourself to prevent them from happening in the future and level up across the board.
These situations are usually reflective of broader patterns that can point you to deeper learnings about your leadership, the key to getting the most from your team and yourself. We'll work through both the tactics in the specific situations and the broader work to build your capabilities.
This means you'll see improvements day one that gets you out of the thicket and simultaneously build a foundation that puts you in the drivers seat longer term.

Words from a few people I've worked with
Jordan Taylor, Cofounder of Seso (Index, Founder's Fund)
Jamie's has the unique combination of raw horsepower, empathy, and ability to instill calmness. Before I started working with Jamie, I was burdened by indecision as a leader. His coaching helped provide me clarity on how to make decisions with limited information and high pressure, and was instrumental in not only combatting the insane stress/burnout which accompanies the founder journey, but also thriving and becoming the happiest I've ever been. Jamie is extremely unique in the world of coaching - he combines legitimate formal training with real world in the trenches experience while being a highly empathic listener to both push me to be my best self while providing the support I've needed in the most difficult times.
Brian Powers, CEO of Markups.ai
Jamie has helped me acknowledge the real professional and personal challenges of scaling a business from 3 to 500+ people. But rather than just wallow in the challenges, he helps bring a clear perspective and real solutions that can deal with them. He speaks in the opposite of platitudes because he genuinely cares about the specifics. He is someone you can bring anything to, so that you only bring your best to your coworkers and investors. As an entrepreneur and investor, I have never seen a situation where board-members weren't highly supportive of hiring a coach like Jamie. If you can't play basketball without a coach, you definitely can't scale a business (and enjoy it!) without one.
Dom Francks, Founder of Vivify
Jamie has been a game-changer in my ability to believe in and commit to myself. Having him in your corner has been a huge boost to my energy, my decision-making clarity, and my confidence in taking risks to live the life that's calling to me. His personal experience allows him to get into the weeds on my issues, while he's also able to support me in zooming out and playing the longer-term game. Jamie has supported me in moving from deep confusion around how to balance all the seemingly disparate parts of myself, to setting out confidently on a path I can call my own.
Emily Yeston, CEO of Dore
I’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with Jamie in my role as a founder and he’s been an incredible support in helping me to navigate building my business with a focus on sustainability and humanity. Jamie’s experience as an entrepreneur makes him an easy person to talk to about both the tactical and emotional challenges that you navigate when building a business, and his insights and shared understanding brings a level of empathy and expertise to his work that is incredibly valuable to any founder.
