Doug didn’t grow up in what would be called a ‘traditional’ family dynamic. He also lost his father at the age of 12 and it changed the trajectory of his life. As he battled drugs and alcohol, his inner, hurt child got buried while his anger grew.

By the time he was 37, he had been through 2 failed relationships and was struggling with his demons. He found himself on the edge of a 14-story building contemplating his swan-dive. The thought of growing up without his own father and what that would do to his own children helped him take a step back, instead of forward off that building. He was able to address the issues that had driven him to this point and start to heal.

Now, Doug is on a mission to help others heal and avoid their own version of a 14-story building. He is an entrepreneur, speaker, and coach, but more importantly, a loving husband and father. He has transformed his pain and turned it into a passion for helping others
