How It Works

A simple path to real progress

Three steps from first conversation to lasting change.

  1. Discovery call

    A free, no-pressure conversation about where you are, where you want to go, and whether we're a good fit.

  2. Vision coaching

    We define the end you have in mind and turn it into clear goals and priorities.

  3. Coaching, workshops, or a keynote

    Ongoing one-on-one coaching or a focused workshop keeps you moving with support and accountability. Groups can start with the vision keynote.

Client Journey

Sam's Story

A one-on-one business coaching story Tim shared in his article “Coachable, Committed, and Willing to Change.”

Sam owned one community gym serving 40–60 members. He wanted to help more people but felt stuck and short on time. At a Chamber of Commerce meeting, a speaker asked who was coachable, committed, and willing to change, and Sam raised his hand and hired a one-on-one business coach. Two years later, he owns four gyms serving 160–200 clients a year, works about 30 hours a week, and volunteers 10 hours a week coaching high school strength and conditioning.

Working with Tim King has had a huge impact on both my leadership and my business. Tim leads with integrity, takes action, and consistently challenges you to grow. One thing I respect most is that he tells you what you need to hear, not just what you want to hear—and that honesty has helped me develop a lot as a leader. Through Tim’s mentorship, I’ve learned how to hire the right people, delegate more effectively, and build my business in a way that allows it to grow beyond just me.
