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.

Chris offers something you can't get anywhere else When I was first introduced to Chris - I was definitely in a horrible place in life. Struggling at work, with health and my relationship. Struggle is not new, but being stuck was. I've done other programs, had coaches, read books, been to live events etc. But I would inevitably have some back slides and with COVID quarantine, I hit a whole new set of challenges. I was hesitant at first and not everyone supported my decision, but Chris' insight and conversation from our first conversation told me that he had real experience working with men in my situation. A huge realization of my own growth was recapping my first conversion with Chris an see that I went from 60-70 hours a week yet feeling only 40% was productive to a more normal 45 hours/week at 80% to 100% productivity! Being focused, present, and holding clear prioroties made a world of difference. Something that separated Chris and his program was the focus on identifying, naming, and reprograming the mental habits that hold us back. I've learned things from working with Chris that I have never seen anywhere else. I went from 1 of the worst mental positions of my life, to feeling more incredible, building stronger relationships with my fiancé & family, and working through a whole new set of goals. I would highly recommend working with Chris because you're going to learn some concepts and tools that you just won't see anywhere else.

Invest in yourself! I started my journey with Chris in early 2022, when I felt like I was in a deep rut both in my career and personal life. Over the 10-week program, I learned so much about myself, what has been holding me back, and tools for becoming my true authentic self. Chris and Stephen really know how to ask the right questions on the one-on-one calls, and there is always a great group of men in the weekly group calls. There is such a diverse background among the men involved but we are all very much connected through this program. While my journey has only begun with the knowledge I have learned from Chris and Stephen, I hope to continue on this path in the future. I would also highly recommend attending the retreats they host. Being out in nature with a great group of guys working through their issues is extremely powerful and I will never forget that weekend.

First three weeks Sharing my experience after the first three weeks, as I wanted to highlight the program's ability for generating some great 'a-ha/breakthrough' moments. What Chris and the program are extremely good at is doing great deep work to help uncover what could be holding you back or causing your stress/anxiety/burnout, etc, and then providing you with very actionable tools and strategies to help educate and address. Those two factors have really helped me see things differently and provide the catalyst for those breakthroughs. I feel like I've made more progress, learned more, and had more of those 'lightbulb' moments over the past three weeks than I have over the past three years in trying to do this on my own.

Choose to Break Free and Realize Your Full Potential This program was exactly what I needed when I needed it. When I started the AE program, I was incredibly low, and the negative beliefs I was maintaining were affecting my entire life. I had become detached from what was important to me in life (friends, family, personal connections, and enjoying this beautiful planet), felt stuck in my position at work, and completely burnt out. After trying the same thing for years, I had convinced myself there was nothing I could do about it. I needed a coach to try something new. Chris and Stephen’s coaching through the empowerment program was the “something new” I needed and broke me out of the spiral I had put myself in. The insight they provided at exactly the right moments was priceless. The personal discoveries over the course flipped my mindset and broke me out of my beliefs driving fear and self-doubt. It helped me rediscover the confidence I lost somewhere along the way, realize what is truly possible and embrace the powerhouse that is me!
