Follow up review as my first was pulled down. My initial review written some time back was taken down for unknown reasons. I'm writing it again having spent time in the “boot camp” and “momentum accelerator”. 1st, I fully endorse the boot camp with associated modules/lessons and supporting content. Chris is a great facilitator and gives helpful insight as a coach should. There is an option to continue coaching after the 10 week program (momentum accelerator). This wasn't as valuable for me personally for a variety of reasons.

Help towards self acceptance, flourishing and producing more Chris has helped me understand and break through and out of a period of being stuck in my life. He's helping me set a platform that will allow me to flourish and be very productive in the next few years. Chris is helping me towards healing, self-acceptance, flourishing and producing. I've thoroughly enjoyed working with Chris and can recommend him for his warmth, concern, and capability to help people move out of the mire of problems and towards flow and flourishing in their lives. He's particularly aiming his work at professional men- who are often left in that mixture of outward professional success, but not necessarily with internal acceptance and appreciation. I can recommend Chris to professional colleagues who need to get out of a rut.

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!

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.

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.
