A fantastic conversation with Bryan Yates about Inner Fitness, his road to overcoming alcoholism and finding inner resources to meet life's challenges, the and his coaching philosophies. Learn more at:
http://locomotivcoaching.com
Who Bryan is - ...
A husband, friend, conversationalist, community builder, and (now part-time) endurance cyclist. I have been employed as an oral historian working with Holocaust survivors, an occasional journalist, a digital media professional at the Walt Disney company, a performance fitness coach, and an endurance cycling coach for competitive executive athletes. I have owned and run multiple small businesses. I am also a sober alcoholic leading a life of active recovery.
Today, I coach midlife creative business professionals. They manage agency teams, lead fast-paced marketing organizations, oversee complex architecture projects, run music or film/tv businesses.
Similar to a slightly older and still very strong athlete, they have vibrant potential but are not quite carrying the spark and hustle they once did. I train them to develop new CORE mental muscles to power their next act.
