Senior Partner
Tanner O'Brien
CEO, Master Coach & Sr. Partner
Owning a business can be one of the most exciting, rewarding and enjoyable challenges in life. Far too often the challenge of business ownership overshadows the positive aspects we hope to achieve.
Tanner has always been drawn to helping others achieve their goals. Out of college, he started helping others as a personal trainer. Before long, knowing he wanted something more, this led him to time in the non profit world, providing services to the business community. After a few years, he took an opportunity and shifted to the banking sector — now aiming focus on assisting clients achieve financial goals.
Today, Tanner is excited to bring his passion back to the business community. If you are a business owner, Tanner wants to connect with you, to learn from you, to share with you, and to connect you.
"As a Sr. Partner of the Firm, I am here to design, plan and implement business strategies; create plans and procedures; set comprehensive goals for business growth and success; establish policies and procedures that promote company culture and vision; & oversee daily operations and the work of our coaches along with helping to answer any questions you may have."

Jodee brings a unique perspective to the firm, offering proficiencies in transitional change, communication, marketing and visionary leadership.

"Maybe the best way to share my passions are to tell you what makes my heart sing. Connection, Community, Authenticity and Nature. The key to any successful business is knowing your Why and being able to share that why and develop it into the how to become profitable and grow your business. My frame of reference allows me to assist you to develop your why or perhaps reminding you of what your why is."
