Wisdom Immersion

Something I started in 2022 has become my absolute favorite way to work with coaching clients, what I’ve been referring to as the Wisdom Immersion: an in-person coaching immersion with me in Oakland, California – where we go deep into shifting your foundations for how you see and engage with life. As a part of a committed coaching container, this Immersion creates a deep foundation for the rest of our work together.

If you’ve experienced a coaching session with me or attended any of my Insight Salons you might have an idea of the understanding that I’m coming from. The Immersion isn’t about concepts – it’s about transformation. There’s no curriculum: the purpose isn’t to teach anything, but to create an experience where you get to see something so deeply for yourself that your life will never be the same.

Here are some reflections from clients on their Immersion:

Something beyond concepts clicked for me. I saw, felt and experienced something – you might call it wisdom, innate well-being, the Tao.

I let a part of myself die. The one who was looking for something outside of him to complete him. I let a new part of me be born.

I’m a significantly better partner, coach, and man that I was before the Immersion. I’m experiencing all of life to be more simple, easy, fun, light, potent and miraculous. Michael helped me get, in an embodied sense, that this is my natural state.

In 10+ years of transformational work, this was hands down the peak experience.

Since the Immersion, that feeling, that awareness continues to clarify, which literally makes everything easier, better. In a very practical sense, that also means I’m experiencing *way* less stress, resistance, and friction.

I feel so much more present. Truly, the things that looked/felt like problems just don’t now.

Oh, & I feel that ✨spaciousness.✨ Even with a pretty full schedule the last few days, I’ve felt so spacious. That spaciousness before action directive is sooo helpful for me. That immersion was worth every penny.

I’m feeling more faith in being taken care of by the universe. It’s very strange to not have pathos!

The weekend itself was simple, filled with laughter and an indescribable transformation occurred. 

Nothing has changed and everything is different. 

I’ve seen and felt something that I cannot accurately describe. I’m way more connected to Wisdom and Well-being. I see more of who I really am. Things are just way more clear. I see and feel The Way, and it’s pretty obvious now; and I see and feel what Not The Way is. All these words sound simple, perhaps trite, and so be it. 

I’m a significantly better partner, coach, and man that I was before the Immersion. I’m experiencing all of life to be more simple, easy, fun, light, potent and miraculous. Michael helped me get, in an embodied sense, that this is my natural state. It’s just here now. It’s obvious. 

And when I’m caught up (not in that natural state), I’m catching so quickly how I’m creating that, which is allowing me to gently return back.
