100
The 100 Year Man

Exit Autopilot.
Build Deliberately.
Built for 100.

Coaching for high-functioning professionals who are still producing but running on empty. I help you rebuild real capacity and operate from calm strength, not constant output, so you are building toward a life that holds.

Five self-audits. Free, and yours to keep.

The Philosophy

Most people optimize for right now. The 100 Year Man builds for the long term.

The world rewards constant output, and most high-functioning professionals pay for it with their bodies, their energy, and their years. You hit the number, but there is nothing left underneath it.

Built for 100 means building your capacity, your health, and your life to still be strong decades from now, not just through the next deadline.

It is a deliberate way of operating: capacity first, sustainable output, a foundation that compounds instead of one that quietly breaks down.

The Story

I have carried the load you are carrying.

For eighteen years I worked in post-production. I finished as Vice President and General Manager of a major Hollywood facility, in charge of a staff of 86. High output, high stakes, always on. I was good at it, and that is where I finally hardened what I learned as a child: that my worth was the weight I could carry.

Then came the years that took me apart. Parents and kids needed care. My health broke. I lost and regained sixty pounds twice. All of it while running my own business, because the business does not stop when you do.

I tried what everyone tries. Discipline first, on the theory that I had gone soft. Then the trainer. Then the diet. Then the productivity system, the sleep tracker, the supplements. Every one of them worked for a few weeks and then gave out, because I was pouring effort into a body and a nervous system with nothing left to hold it.

That is the part nobody told me. Capacity comes first. Output comes second. Do it in the other order and it collapses, every time.

It took me close to a decade to work out the sequence, and longer to make it teachable. That sequence is the Tactical Capacity Model.

Who It's For

You are a high performer. That is not the problem.

The problem is that everyone gets a version of you that works. Parents and kids need care. The business does not slow down because you are tired. You are the one they all call, and there is nothing left by the time you get to yourself.

You have tried the fixes. The sleep app. The trainer. The weekend off. None of it touched this.

You do not need motivation. You need capacity, rebuilt in an order that holds.

The Method

The Tactical Capacity Model

Not motivation. Not mindset hacks. A 12-week arc that rebuilds you in three phases, in the sequence that actually works. You condition capacity instead of forcing output, so what you build has a foundation under it.

Weeks 1-4 · The Camel

Stabilize

Restore the substrate: sleep, nervous system, physical baseline. Build something real to draw from instead of running on adrenaline and willpower.

Weeks 5-8 · The Lion

Reduce

Remove the load. Say no. Set down what should never have been yours to carry, and reclaim the capacity it was quietly costing you.

Weeks 9-12 · The Child

Build

Rebuild forward momentum on a foundation that finally holds, so progress compounds instead of costing you more than it returns.

Who Runs It

Why I can coach this.

  • Operator first, coach second. Vice President and General Manager of a major Hollywood post-production facility, in charge of a staff of 86 with full P&L responsibility. This is not a pressure I read about.
  • I lived the collapse and found the way out. Caregiving, a health breakdown, sixty pounds lost and regained twice, all while running my own business. The Tactical Capacity Model is the sequence I built to get out, run on myself first.
  • Trained to change reactions, not just talk about them. Master Practitioner certified in 2023 in hypnotherapy and mental and emotional release. That is what keeps old patterns from snapping back when the pressure returns.
  • Nearly a decade in the making. I circled this model for years before it was solid enough to teach, then ran it in the same order I teach it.
  • Still an operator, not just a coach. Real estate investor since 2009 across seven states. Arizona REALTOR, Master Certified Negotiation Expert, 125+ homes sold. MBA from UC Irvine's Merage School, BS from Northwestern.
  • This is the Founding Five, and I say so. Twelve weeks, every session one to one with me. No graduates to point to yet.
The Program

Twelve weeks. One to one. Five people.

  • A 12-week arc, three phases, from stabilize to build.
  • Five people, and then it closes. Every session is one to one. There is no group.
  • Investment: $3,500 paid in full, or two payments of $1,850 ($3,700 total). A real commitment, on both sides. If it is not a fit in the first two weeks, we part ways and you get a full refund.

If you have read this far, you already know.

Two-week fit window. If it is not a fit, you get a full refund.
