Creativity through the lens of a communication coach for parents of teens and a spoken word artist

"Creativity is: 1. Asking what do you want. 2. Being intentional on putting things together or taking them apart"

I'm Marcus, a 'communication coach' for parents of preteens. I help business professionals who are parents of 10 to 14 year olds effectively show up and connect with their preteen during these key formative years, in order to secure a relationship that lasts beyond a lifetime.
As a former missionary and high school English teacher, over my 15+ year career, l've:

• Worked with learners from 20+ countries as a teacher and mentor. This work experience has given me a deep insight into how young people relate to their parents, family, and our world.

• Founded a growing 'book community', 'Putting Parenting Books into Action', that helps parents show up for their preteens and connect with similar parents who share their experiences.

• Authored 'Inspire Life Through Words Series', a published set of personal inspirational poetry intended to create well-being. i Just for Fun On a lighter note, when I'm not deep in conversations with 'present' parents or teens, I'm Latin dancing (Salsa, Bachata, and Kizomba) and moving my body through Crossfit and other sports. I love positive psychology, philosophy and what it means to live a good life.

Creativity through the lens of Business Coach, CEO Next Level University, Podcaster

"Creativity means: finding out what you're obsessed with and doing it."

At age 2, my father passed away in a car accident. At age 26, after getting into a nearly fatal car accident myself, I questioned everything I was doing in life. I questioned who I was and the choices I was making. I was at an all-time low. Filled with regret, I searched for answers and found two of the brightest lights I had ever seen. The first bright light was a book by Bronnie Ware entitled, “The Top 5 Regrets of the Dying,” and the second was a Ted Talk by Tony Robbins. Both of these resources helped me find my way and guided me to make the choice of going ALL IN on self-improvement to design a life of meaning and purpose. On this self-improvement journey, I have learned I believe in a heart-driven but NO BS approach to inspiring, motivating, and educating others on what it REALLY takes to get to the Next Level. Today, I am proud to say it is my mission to help others design fulfilling lives, maximize their own unique potential, and build aligned businesses they love on their own terms. I have a powerful combination of technical expertise and business acumen specializing in Peak Performance, Productivity, Organizational Design, and Individual, Team, and Business Optimization. I lead a global team at NLU, have given hundreds of trainings all over the world, and have happily completed thousands of one-on-one coaching calls with clients. It would be my honor to help you get to the Next Level of your life, love, health, and wealth.
