Can Chris really help? Can Chris really help? Absolutely! 15 years ago, my life blew up concurrent with a fantastic motorcycle accident. My world collapsed. My body was broken, health imploded, unexpected divorce, oppressive job demands, suddenly a single Dad, and increasing demands of geriatric parents conscripted over a decade of pure survival. After 15 years of several false-starts and minimal successes, survival-mode made it difficult to reconnect with the confident, smart, swaggering, risk-taking man of my youth. Chris and team led me through an extraordinary journey that brought me closer to restoration in 10 weeks than I had come in the last 15 years. The shift in mindset is my new launchpad to carry me into a world-class finish. Thanks, Chris and Team!

Consultation I'd like to give a better review, but was disappointed after my conversation with Chris last week. Chris seems like a nice guy and I'm sure his program has helped some people, but my consultation call was disappointing. In the last portion of the call, pretty high pressure sales tactics were used. Not a deal breaker right there, but I think we differ in opinion on how this kind of program should be presented and sold. What bothered me is that when I told Chris I don't make significant financial decisions like this without speaking with my wife, his response was to try to convince me that this was my decision and not my wife's, so I could make a decision right there without speaking with her. It could be that we have different opinions of what is ethical in convincing someone to make a decision, but that was a deal breaker for me. Selling a program you're passionate about like this is a challenging task, and I really hope Chris is able to help a lot of people, but disagree with the tactics used in the consultation. I wish Chris and any of his clients the best and do hope that people are transformed with the program.

Empowered and Deployed! When I came to Ascent I was blocked, small and burnt out. I knew what I wanted out of life, but felt like I had tried everything, nothing was working and had resigned myself to thinking that maybe something bigger just wasn’t in the cards for me. However, I still remembered who I used to be, especially when I was in the outdoors and held out hope I could somehow rekindle it. Cue the day that the Ascent Empowerment program hit my feed. I have been a frequent flyer with self-help books, podcasts and programs. From our first exercise with Chris I knew this experience was going to be different. For the first time, I had faith that if I simply followed the program I would see the results I wanted in my life. So far, so good. Results so far: A completely renewed relationship and appreciation for my wife Deeper connection and joy with my kids Confidence at work that I haven’t felt or been able to display in decades - maybe ever. The confidence to bet on myself and launch into a new job and career challenge. It is something I have wanted to do for a long time, but finally was able to get past the hesitancy and dive in with excitement. I even slayed a double-black mountain bike trail last weekend that ate my lunch last summer. Fear, self doubt, hesitancy and overthinking used to be in the lead. Now I am learning to install a new operating system and am looking at my future with an excitement and passion that I have not felt in a long time. The butterflies at the top of that double-black turned from fear and anxiety to joy and possibility. The negative emotions are still there, but the Ascent Empowerment program has helped me detach on a path that I couldn’t have even conceived of or thought possible a few short weeks ago.

Profoundly Helpful Before Ascent, I had been feeling meh and overwhelmed about work and life for about 10 years. I had a good tech job but was so worn out by it that I wanted to quit and just do landscaping and live a more simple life outside. Since Ascent though, I am able to find joy in my work, even though it is still challenging, and best of all I don't feel overwhelmed and worn out in my life anymore really, so I am working better AND just enjoying my life more. Enjoying life more is the best feeling and I feel more creative, more fun, and my relationship has improved a lot as well. It's honestly hard to believe how much it has helped!

Do it! The Ascent program equipped me with the tools to see and create the truths I want- material truths, experiential truths and emotional truths. This is not a passive, transactional purchase; it is not snake oil or a cure in a bottle. The solution must be excavated and refined from within you. You do the work. If you have an aversion to sustained commitment, uncomfortable realizations or truly limitless potential, seek help elsewhere.
