About Us

We're a fun-loving couple that genuinely enjoys helping people, but also like pushing people to their limits. We've spent the last few years improving our lives, careers, and relationship. We're former teachers with backgrounds in human behavior that quit our normal jobs to travel the US in an RV, run ultramarathons, enjoy beer and wine, do a little MMA training, and generally make life worth living. Our experiences have been so overwhelmingly positive, we decided to start doing life coaching.

The problem- 99.9% of life coaching is lame. Lots of "Let's work on your goals!", "You need to meditate more!" or "Let's visualize we're unicorn tears and wash away our problems!"

There's too much coddling; too much ego-boosting. All life coaches seem to be a bunch of whiny little bitches that follow the same tired scripts. Most life coaches seem to be the love child of a hippie and a psychologist. We're breaking that mold by taking the route less-traveled. 

Other life coaches are Nickelback. We're Nine Inch Nails. Other life coaches are like Jazzercise with Shaker Weights. We're like a bootcamp that makes you puke. They're a nice walk along a boardwalk. We're an overnight run through the mountains.

We're different because, quite frankly, we tell the truth. 

• Feeling fat? You probably need exercise. 
• No friends? You're probably scaring people away with bad social skills
• Job going nowhere? Start becoming invaluable.
• Relationship sucks? Fix it or end it.
• Sex life sucks? You're probably not a very good lover.

We won't tolerate your dumb-ass excuses why your life sucks. We'll point out your flaws and teach you to be awesome. 

So... what kind of people are we? 

•  We're brutally honest. We'll call you out on shit.
• We're exceedingly open-minded and non-judgmental. We don't get offended.
• We're outcome-oriented. Our goal is to fix your life as quickly as possible. 
• We don't accept dumb excuses... for anything.

Want to know more? We're both blog whores that over-share. Read through a few of our projects to get a feel for our personalities:

• Barefoot Running University (the "flagship", and Jason's personal blog)

We're not for everyone. If you like constant affirmations and hugs, don't contact us. There's a ton of tools that'll take your cash. If you've been nodding your head to this entire page, you'd be a good fit for our methods. We can help make your life a Hell of a lot more awesome, whether it be physically, mentally, socially, or emotionally.
