Entrepreneurial Coaching
Walk, Talk, Grow.
Founders, This is for You
Running a startup is intense. It demands resilience, self-awareness, and clarity—qualities that coaching strengthens. Research shows that founders who engage in structured coaching improve their confidence, decision-making, and ability to navigate uncertainty.
What is Entrepreneurial Coaching?
Think of it as a space—just for you—to talk through challenges, refine your thinking, and clarify your next steps. Coaching isn’t advice; it’s a guided conversation where you set the agenda, and I help you connect the dots. We use open-ended Socratic questions, challenge assumptions, and explore perspectives—all with the goal of helping you implement what matters most to you. And if you're up for it, we do it while walking in nature.
This coaching is led by a repeat founder who teaches entrepreneurship at Dalhousie University and is completing PhD research on the scientific approach to entrepreneurial decision-making. That means the conversation isn’t just about mindset, well-being, and leadership—it also supports you in making better business decisions, testing assumptions, and strengthening your strategy.
What Founders Say
"To have someone chat with me through the direct, and not-so-direct obstacles of startup life clearly translates to reduced life friction and better self-awareness—so I can perform better even when we aren't able to fit walks in."
"Luke has been there, done that. He helps me weigh options, align decisions with my values, and think through complexity."
"That was magic. You ask amazing questions."
"His interest in what I'm doing is meaningful. He listens deeply and holds space in a way that makes me feel seen and heard."
"What makes this coaching different is that I always leave with something actionable—something I can try right away. Then, on the next call, I get to reflect: Did it work? What did I learn? It adds a level of accountability that’s been really useful for me."
