Coaching

In order to devote my all to my coaching clients, I only take on a limited number of clients at any given time. To check on a spot in any of my programs, please get in touch, and we’ll talk.

 

The three-part goal of Big Life is to Do More, Fear Less, and Create Bliss. Escaping the life you feel stuck in and building your dream life will satisfy all three goals.

The Escape Plan is geared towards men over 35 years of age, usually married with kids, with a decently paying job that has good benefits.

That’s the upside.

The downside is that the ‘good’ job is sucking your soul dry each and every day. You dread going to work every morning, and you’ve grown to understand why Sunday evening is the time of the week with the highest suicide rates for men. It’s because the idea of yet another Monday morning, even at a well-paying job, is crippling. Even worse, most men who join me in the Escape Plan are also in debt, out of shape, and feel their marriages could be better.

The Escape Plan is a strategic plan we create together. It’s a mix of career planning, marriage counseling, debt coaching, physical fitness training, and more.

I’m not interested in dragging you along. The Escape Plan is hard but worth it. Despite the difficulty of the plan, few men fail out of it, because they realize that so much depends on it. There will be lots of work involved, including worksheets, reading, practical exercises, coaching sessions with me, and more.

There are three different ways the Escape Plan works, depending on your needs, your investment, and your willingness to work harder than ever. The tiers are organized according to the weight of a backpack. The harder and faster you want to go, the heavier your pack is, because it is full of resources and help. The lighter the pack, the fewer resources you have available to you.

The information on each plan below is abbreviated. If you’re interested, e-mail me for more details.

Heavy Pack

This is the Go Big version that includes everything. One-on-One Coaching is for clients who are ready to dive headlong into changing their lives, figuring things out, or leveling up. If you don’t have time to waste or want to get things rolling quickly, One-on-One Coaching is the most exhaustive option where Dr. Dave will work alongside you to make your success a priority.

Cost

  • $499 per month with a 6 month minimum time commitment
  • $5,499 for a one year prepaid commitment (a savings of $489)

The monthly One-on-One Coaching Package includes-

  • DISC Profile- You take a personalized DISC profile that will not only reveal your personality type, but also help you understand how to work and succeed with other personality types.
  • Strengthsfinder Profile- You take a personalized Strengthsfinder test that will reveal your top five strengths and how to make the most of them.
  • Together, we analyze the results and base our plan on those results. These two tests will not only tell us a lot about you but also help us figure out the best way to work together for your success.
  • Annual Gathering- I’ll invite you to my city or meet you in yours. We’ll hang out for 2-3 days and pack in as much work and planning as we can. Travel and lodging are not included in the package.
  • Weekly Coaching Sessions- We’ll have weekly one hour coaching sessions in person or via teleconference.
  • Homework- Working with me is like attending grad school. There will be checklists, assignments, and worksheets. I’ll expect you to work as hard on these as hard as I work on helping you achieve your goals.
  • Resources– As we move forward, I’ll send you additional resources to aid you in your journey. These will often be books, articles, or movies. Some of these I’ll send digitally. Others will arrive in the mail like out of season Christmas presents.
  • Continuing Education– As part of our work together, I’ll frequently expose you to courses and videos that will help you.
  • Live Events– I’ll let you know about any live events like keynote addresses and training sessions I’m conducting that you can attend.
  • E-mail Access– You will have unlimited access to me by e-mail, to ask questions or seek advice and counsel whenever you need it. I will read every email and personally respond to it.

 

Medium Pack

This is the choice if you feel you’re on your way towards the dream but could use a little help.

Lite Pack

DIY Self-Coaching is for individuals who are self-motivated, enjoy self-improvement exercises, and have a good support system to bounce ideas off of, but who aren’t sure that coaching is for them.

I realize that not everyone is ready for one-on-one or even small group coaching. This program is exactly what is says. You coach yourself. You’ll get much of the same material I use in person-to-person sessions with my clients but without the personal attention and assistance from me.

Cost

  • Monthly- $99
  • 6 Month Prepaid Bundle- $399 (a savings of $195)
  • 1 Year Prepaid Bundle- $599 (a savings of $589 or nearly half price)
  • The one year bundle also comes with extra perks. Check below for these awesome extras.

The DIY Self-Coaching Package includes-

  • Weekly E-mail Lessons– Each week will focus on a specific area to work on and will often have links to other great resources.
  • Worksheets and Checklists– There will be plenty of worksheets and checklists to help guide you in the process.
  • DISC Profile– This is included only in the one year bundle. Take a personalized DISC profile that will not only reveal your personality type, but also help you understand how to work and succeed with other personality types.
  • Strengthsfinder Profile– This is included only in the one year bundle. Take a personalized Strengthsfinder test that will reveal your top five strengths and how to make the most of them.
  • Reduced Pricing on Other Services– If you need specialized one-on-one help in a particular area, engaging me for a one hour coaching sessions comes at a reduced price. Most of my DIY clients call me up for a few sessions each year as they work through the process and need help past a roadblock or brainstorming ideas. The price for this varies depending on the level of help you need, whether it’s in person, on Skype or phone, or by e-mail.

Without revealing everything, the Escape Plan will include the following plus a whole lot more-

  • Establishing a timeline to the Big Life based on where you are now so that we can schedule benchmarks and plan a date to put in your two week notice or retirement papers.
  • Design your dream job, compare that to reality, and come up with a plan for achieving it sooner rather than later.
  • Crafting a plan that includes spousal support. If you spouse isn’t on board, it won’t work.
  • Working a strategy to move you toward a debt-free lifestyle.
  • Putting you on a physical fitness regimen that restores your physique, increases your energy, and make you feel better. It also works on the post 40yo testosterone decrease that all men experience, which affects them in ways they don’t even realize.
  • Our work will encompass all areas of the work-life balance pie with regard to your dream life, not the one you have now. For most men these areas are family, social, intellectual, hobbies, financial, and physical.

If you have any questions about the Escape Plan, please let me know. I can be reached at CallSignRedbeard.com or drdave@redteamgoals.com.
