Thank you for your interest in us!

We're interested in you too! Let me help you find the right Courage Community program to fit your time, needs, and budget!

To get started for free, please provide your information below and I will be in touch with program suggestions, or steps for scheduling a consultation call.

Consultation calls are structured as follows: We'll spend the first few minutes learning a little about each other and looking for things we have in common. Then you can describe the goals, obstacles, and issues you'd like help with.

I'll then take you through some diagnostic questions that help me determine where you specifically need attention, and what programs can match your needs. If we're a fit to work together, I'll recommend one of my programs.

If we're not a fit, I'll still give you a free recommendation to another resource based on what we discussed during the call. No one leaves empty handed.

NOTE: This form is required in order to schedule a free consultation call. Don't overthink it! Your answers can be as short as a sentence or two.

A Note on Response Times

I am a solopreneur, meaning I don't have a team of people that help me run the business.

I have some very friendly and helpful leaders inside the community (including my wife, Lilly) that assist with coaching at times - but I handle everything about the business. Even if you receive an automated message, know that I wrote it myself and a reply to any Courage Community email gets sent directly to me. Therefore, please don't hesitate to respond to an automated message - they all go to my inbox.

• Benefit to You: Personal attention and zero bureaucracy. There are no complicated systems or 3rd parties to deal with. Any questions you have about anything, just reach out to me and be assured that I will answer you directly. I pride myself on my attention to customer service. Community members find me very easy to reach, and I most often reply to emails within 1-3 business days.
• Just Keep in Mind: I may not respond that quickly. For example, if I am away traveling, I may not respond until I've returned. I post about my schedule inside the community forum to make sure members are made aware of my travels, but if you've filled out this form while I'm out on vacation you may not hear back from me for a week.
• When I do respond: Know that I have personally read your form and will be writing you a custom response with my recommendations for what program you should try, or instructions for scheduling a FREE private consultation call to discuss multiple options. In other words, you'll be communicating with a human, not an AI or auto-responder.

F A Q

WHY DO YOU COACH?

+

What I love most about my job is seeing my customers transform into braver, more authentic people. Most of my customers are holding themselves back in at least one major area of their lives, and feeling terrible for it. Getting people past these internal hurdles so they can feel happier with themselves and more socially capable makes me feel good.

​I didn't know that I wanted to start my own business until after I was a customer of the course I now teach. Because the course had such an immediate and life-changing impact on me, I wanted to share it with the world! After I achieved Social Freedom for myself, a lot of my fears around entrepreneurship started to fade, and my interest in business began to grow. Getting past the roadblocks in my social life had a huge positive impact on my professional goals. It gave me the ambition to do my own thing in spite of the risks. Social Freedom is also professional freedom!

WHAT DO YOU SPECIALIZE IN?

+

We are The Social Freedom Experts! We can get you past the fear of judgement, rejection, failure, and embarrassment with our online courses, or just one weekend of live training. This reduces stress and social anxiety, brings more authenticity to your life, and encourages taking action on your important life goals. We help you stop holding yourself back!

We provide specific coaching in the following areas: Social Freedom, conversation & connection, advice on building friendships & communities, long & short term dating, intimate relationships & relationship transitions like new beginnings, engagements, breakups & divorces; job hunting & career development from resume writing, to interview prep, to sourcing opportunities & business networking strategies; overall quality of life topics like sexual health, satisfaction & performance; weight & fitness goals; self-defense & martial arts training; public speaking, creative expression, and entrepreneurship.

WHY SHOULD I WORK WITH YOU?

+

Clients choose me because I care deeply about my customer's success, and I give them the attention they need to achieve it. I enjoy providing a lot of personal attention and customized advice. I do not take a one-size-fits all approach, and instead work to establish training protocols that customers will actually adhere to consistently.

​This is one of the factors that helps customers see results in the short-term, so they can be encouraged to keep working on their longer-term goals. Additionally, we have a community built on determination, authenticity, and curiosity, full of people who are happy to help out their fellow members.

WHERE SHOULD I START?

+

Where you start depends on how fast you want to see results. Our most impactful and effective program is delivered in-person over a single weekend.

We have an online version of the same course, as well as affordable community membership tiers that provide access to coaching support via online forum, group coaching calls, or personal messaging.

We also do private calls and call packages.

WHAT MAKES YOU DIFFERENT?

+

Most coaching services are primarily concerned with teaching technical behaviors. At The Courage Community, we address the underlying emotional/mental resistance that prevents you from using your social skills effectively.

In other words, we get you out of your own way FIRST (Social Freedom), and then we optimize your behaviors (direct communication) after you are actually capable of implementing the advice.

This is why our customers tend to see fast results that last!

WHAT IS YOUR MISSION & VISION?

+

OUR MISSION & VISION
Our mission is how we help our students on an individual level, so please make sure it aligns with your own goals!

Our vision is how we would like to help our community and the world at large. Once you’ve achieved your immediate goals, we’d love your help working towards the community vision!

The Courage Community Mission Statement
The Courage Community offers a rapid and permanent increase in Social Freedom, conversation, and connection capabilities for people who have situational anxiety (such as worrying too much about what other people think).

The Courage Community Vision Statement
We hope to grow The Courage Community to thousands of active members who are all working together to make the world a better place by embodying the core values of The Courage Community:

Everyone from coaches, to students, to employees should strive to encourage lifelong personal development (value of consistency), and facing fears (value of courage), even when it's hard (determination), so we can live our truest lives (authenticity), while seeking new knowledge and experiences (curiosity).

Coach Mike’s Personal Mission Statement
I endeavor to help others by giving people knowledge, experiences, and support that save them time, money, effort, or heartache; and lead to improved feelings of capability, self-confidence, social confidence, personal freedom, and deeper connections with the people and situations they care about.

In short, I teach people how to find the courage they need to build the lives they truly want to live.
