Testimonials

Guy Duperrault - Writer & Yogi
I met Mark for the first time by chance in a coffee shop. I told him that I was working on becoming a professional writer.
He asked me a few questions. From my answers, he gave me one suggestion, and less than twenty-four hours later I officially became a professional writer with my first paid subscriber on Substack.
Following Mark's guidance, I also held my first paid yoga retreat, and gained my first paid life-coaching client.
With Mark's discernment and integrity, he helped me to see and understand my internal psychological and/or spiritual money blockages. Then, with well-practiced and honed tools, he empowered and then helped me to clear them.
What he gave me was total money freedom: I became free from old stories that had monetarily imprisoned me. Now I have begun to tangibly grow my financial freedom and with it the expansion of my writing and yogic practices into true professional expressions of joy and love.

Emily Patrick - Social Impact Marketer
Mark is excellent at quickly identifying underlying issues and providing powerful, concise advice on how to move forward.
As a foreigner living in another country, I had been conflicted over the mixed impacts I might be having on locals.
Talking to Mark helped me make peace with what I can control as an individual versus the larger forces that are out of my hands. While speaking with Mark, I felt a sense of calmness and relaxation that I had never experienced before.
Now, I’m better able to focus on my work in the social good space and on what I can do to have a net positive impact on my local community.

Aki Kaltenbach - Founder / CEO of Save Da Sea Foods Inc.
Mark was incredibly helpful in pushing me to think bigger around the story I was telling investors and helped me refine my pitch to plant-based investors, which ultimately lead to me closing my pre-seed raise within weeks of his coaching.

Sarah Hawley - Author & Founder, Gromotely
Mark came into my life at a time of real stress and struggle. My startup was failing, and so was my mental health.
He immediately helped me gain a handle on my inner world so I could focus again on my business and make more grounded and sound decisions.
I’m grateful for his support and guidance and the shifts created in my life through his sharing of wisdom, experience and practical tools.
Want to break free from the online guru hype cycle?
If you're looking for solutions for your life and work, you've probably come across a lot of online gurus. And they are offering more free information and online courses than ever!
But how helpful are all of those things? Do you really know if any of them will work? And how much time and money will it cost just to find out if you made the right choice?
Most online teachers these days know a little secret...
99% of their students will never even do their first assignment. So, they give away something for free to get you on their email list. Then they flood your inbox with information and upsells. Suddenly you're overwhelmed.
Eventually, a few determined people will climb the guru's sales pyramid and finally get the personal attention they were seeking from day one.
Or maybe you sign up for their "entry level" course. Perhaps you even start doing some of the lessons. But soon you hit a snag.
Because you have your own unique challenges and understandings. Your individual situation might not be addressed in the course!
You want help with your exact issue, but the guru only works one-on-one with big ticket clients. How can you get the personal attention you need without spending piles of cash?
Like other gurus, I also know that 99% of the people who register for my free one-on-one mentoring program won't take even the first step toward fulfilling their dreams.
And I'm fine with that, because I'm using this fact to YOUR advantage!
I'm not going upsell you on anything because my free one-on-one mentoring is already my most valuable program!
It's crazy, but most online gurus don't understand the full value they can produce for their committed clients. Even with $50,000 per hour private sessions, they often miss the opportunity to be compensated relative to the value they create with their guidance.
While we're at it, let's also consider Venture Capital investors. They typically reject 500 business founders for every one business that they fund! All of those losing pitch decks end up in what they call "the slush pile".
Most VC investors and online gurus are constantly pushing the slush-pile people away in order to focus on recruiting clients who are willing to pay top dollar while they say "no" to everyone else.
Even famous charities work the same way. If you make a small donation, you have unwittingly enrolled in an endless upsell cycle. Because 90% of most charities' revenue typically comes from the top 10% of their members.
Are you starting to see the pitfalls of a business model which treats people like some kind of raw ore from which the enterprise hopes to extract a few nuggets of gold?
I have never followed this business model because when it comes to peace-based leadership and a sense of personal fulfillment, that person who seems like the biggest failure today can suddenly emerge as a success. And every time that happens, that person's new perspective improves the lives of everyone around them.
I have always known that the real gold is in the slush pile, not the nuggets! My personal experience is that most would-be leaders and entrepreneurs just need a little TLC from me to blossom into their full potential.
I care about giving everybody a chance and not just chasing proven winners because I used to be one of those slush-pilers who just didn't get it.
I didn't know how to get into the winner's circle. My ideas didn't fit the mold. Nobody knew where I belonged in their system. I couldn't find a "one-size-fits-all" success playbook that worked for me.
Instead, I slogged, and improvised, and put together my personal puzzle one slow, painful piece at a time!
But you don't have to slog anymore!
After you sign up for my free 30-day one-on-one mentoring program, you'll get an email with a very small task.
If you do that first simple task and keep doing the bespoke assignments I give you step by step, I know that you'll be in the winner's circle soon enough, whether or not you match anybody else's success template, because together, we will build a success roadmap exclusive to you alone!
Since most people will just drop off on their own, I'm happy to offer my "platinum" personal mentoring to everybody. The real winners will make themselves known by their actions, not by the size of their bank balance!
I promise that if you do the homework that I design specifically for your unique life situation and goals, you will soon create so much value for yourself and others that money will hardly be a concern for either of us!
You see, want to help anybody who wants to lead jump to the next level so that they can contribute each in their ow way to creating a true peace-based economy, whether that means a happier family or growing a huge enterprise!
That's why my big goal is not how much money I can extract from a few elite clients, but how many people I can help fulfill their life's dreams?
How many people can I help get past their one big stuck point so that they can stand on their own two feet, with or without me? This one idea that has driven me my whole life.
So, here is my plan...
If you are willing to do my easy, custom-for-you assignments, soon we'll be working side by side, not mentor and protege, but as true partners. And I am eagerly looking forward to that day!
Why am I providing free one-on-one mentoring?
In 1980, I had a vision of how to create a truly peace-based economy, and I have pursued that vision ever since.
This impossible goal led me to pursue mastery of three major leadership fields: business, politics, and finance, as well as my own body, mind, and spirit.
Along the way, I spent tens of thousands of dollars to get the kind of mentoring and training that today allows me to provide rapid, extreme benefits for others as they pursue their own dreams.
I was motivated to pay for all that training by all the hard crashes and disappointments I endured attempting to chase my dreams without any formal mentoring.
Then one day, I discovering that I could make dramatic improvements with crazy speed by learning from others instead of trying to figure everything out by myself.
I was already nearly 40 years old before I got my first taste of the power of real mentoring. And, each mentor I learned from also had to earn my trust before they could impart their wisdom to me.
Today, I want to help you accomplish your own vision without the struggles and wasted time I experienced.
You may or may not feel ready to trust me or perhaps you think that you can't afford to pay me what my mentoring is truly worth in your life.
But don't worry! I don't want any of these things to prevent me from being of service to you.
So, if you're ready to move beyond what you think is possible and what you can accomplish by trial and error, I invite you to sign up for my free 30-day mentoring program and get a solid taste for yourself what we can achieve by working together!
About Me
I started my first environmental business in 1983 at age 23. My company saved clients millions of dollars worth of water and energy. In 1990, I co-founded a native forest protection NGO in Washington DC that went on to reverse a devastating federal policy affecting the entire US National Forest Service. The environmental policies I and others helped create during this time led to new business opportunities in ecosystem protection and restoration.
In 2001, I embarked on a journey to master finance to grow ecologically-beneficial companies via broad public investor participation and activism. Since then, I have learned and also invented unique financial strategies that can benefit any business founder or project leader.
In 2016, I went vegan for my health. The transformation led me to focus my financial and political expertise on the vegan movement which today is working to protect the rights and health of everything I care about: animals, people, and ecosystems.
In 2023, I felt it was time to shift my focus again, and started mentoring people of all types and interests on how to achieve their personal and leadership goals.
I believe that if more people follow their dreams, the world will naturally become more peaceful and take care of itself. If you are following your dreams, I would love to help you achieve them!
