I had the pleasure of working closely with Kelby during the Build Out Without Burnout cohort at Embarc Collective, and I must say it was a transformative experience. He has a deep understanding of the unique pressures that founders face and provided practical strategies to navigate them. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a compassionate and effective coach.

Kelby is one of the most thoughtful, insightful individuals I have had the pleasure of speaking with. Every time we meet, Kelby works wonders! Idk how he does it, but he always helps me see my issues from a helpful lens and gives me effective strategies to tackle the challenges I present to him. If you've met with Kelby before, you know exactly what I'm talking about. If you haven't met with him yet, you need to! You won't regret it.

Founder & CEO, Croow
I had the honor and privilege of participating in Kelby's Wellness & Burnout Prevention program in 2023. Additionally, I was in a small 6 peer cohort with private coaching sessions. Kelby's coaching helped change my perspective as a leader. I was able to prioritize my health and well-being - which has made me a better leader and a better employee. I would recommend working with Kelby to anyone but especially founders and leaders of small, medium, and large organizations. His coaching will help the individual which, in turn, helps their organization.

COO, Rare Drop
Kelby led a Build Without Burn Out group for a select group of founders that I had the pleasure of partaking in. Kelby's style and demeanor warmed the space for authentic conversations which allowed us to all feel comfortable connecting deeply on the topic of founder burnout. I can't recommend Kelby enough for his genuine commitment to helping me and the group at large. I'm grateful for the time we all had to authentically share and connect through the sessions led by Kelby.
