Sometimes the answer isn’t about changing your life. It’s about changing your connection to it.
My work with clients can explore purpose, intuition, energy, relationships, forgiveness, gratitude, limiting beliefs, personal transformation, spiritual awareness and the deeper patterns that may be influencing the direction of their lives.

- Soul Coaching

There are times when traditional coaching asks
What do you want to accomplish?
Soul coaching asks something different
Why do you want it — and who are you becoming along the way?

Sales & business coaching
40+ years in sales. 35+ years coaching. A lifetime of learning how to perform under pressure.
Business success isn’t built in a classroom alone. It’s built through thousands of conversations. Rejection. Competition. Difficult customers. Changing markets. Great decisions. Bad decisions. Risk. Failure. Reinvention. And learning how to get back up when life — or business — doesn’t go according to plan.

AI consulting & implementation
Making artificial intelligence make sense.
But there’s a huge difference between having access to AI and knowing how to make AI produce meaningful results for your organization.
- AI Strategy & Readiness
- Prompt Engineering
- AI Agents & Agentic Workflows
- AI Workflow Automation
- AI Training & Employee Adoption
- Technology Translation & Implementation
But perhaps my greatest value isn’t simply understanding the technology.
I speak both languages.
45+ years with technology, systems, coding and websites
Humanity, values & purpose
Building better people. Better teams. Better communities. A better future.
The answer became a values-driven, nonpartisan blueprint built around 70 Core Values and Vows and six foundational pillars designed to move people beyond division and toward practical action.
- Values First
- Mentorship Pods
- Measurable Good
- Technology Serving Humanity
- Protecting Childhood & Learning
- Stewardship of Earth
Project 2029 Humanity began with a simple question:
What kind of world are we leaving to the generations that follow us — and what can ordinary people actually do about it?
But Project 2029 Humanity isn’t intended to be something you simply read.
It’s something we can practice.

Motivational speaker
When life changes the rules, you learn how to play a new game.
Joseph “Joey” Gargiulo does not speak about overcoming adversity because he studied it. He lived it.
Yet his story is not really about blindness, an accident, or hardship. It is about what happens next.

Outdoor adventures & professional fishing guide
Sometimes the answers you’re looking for aren’t found indoors.
I’ve spent a lifetime outdoors — as an Eagle Scout, outdoorsman, fisherman, camper, hiker, backpacker and wilderness enthusiast.
- Corporate & team retreats
- Experiences for youth
- Individuals & small groups
Whether we’re chasing giant tuna offshore, hiking into the backcountry, sitting around a campfire or simply spending a quiet day on the water, nature can provide something increasingly difficult to find in modern life:
Space.
- Space to think.
- Space to reconnect.
- Space to challenge yourself.
- Space to talk.
- And sometimes, space to find answers.

Culinary experiences & home cooking
You don’t need a restaurant kitchen to prepare an extraordinary meal.
I come from a long family tradition of gourmet cooks, chefs, restaurateurs and catering business owners, where food was about much more than feeding people. It was about family, tradition, creativity, hospitality — and bringing people together around a table.
- Italian
- Sicilian
- Seafood
- Mediterranean
- Asian
- Indian
- Latin American
- Fusion
I want you to understand why we’re doing what we’re doing.
Recipes teach you how to make one dish.
Understanding ingredients and technique teaches you how to cook.
Combine one of my fishing experiences with a culinary session and we can turn the day’s catch into dinner.
From catch to kitchen.
Custom orgonite art
Created for one person. One energy. One intention.
My custom orgonite pieces are individually designed and handcrafted for the person who will ultimately own them. I create pyramids, sculptures and other unique objects using combinations of metals, crystals, stones, minerals and meaningful materials I’ve gathered and collected from locations around the world.
- Crystals
- Minerals
- Metals
- Stones
- Natural materials
- Symbolic objects
I don’t believe meaningful art should simply look beautiful.
Sometimes it should mean something.
We can talk about what you’re experiencing and develop an intention for the piece together. Perhaps it’s:
- Love
- Protection
- Abundance
- Courage
- Grounding
- Clarity
Because no two people are identical.
Author for hire
Do you have a story to tell?
Let me help you document your story. A life lived at full tilt, a business built from nothing, a family history worth preserving — whatever it is, let’s collaborate and write your book together.
Most people never write the book they carry around because staring at a blank page is its own kind of paralysis. That part is my job. You bring the memories, the voice, and the reason it matters. I bring the structure, the drafting, and the discipline to get it finished.
Start the conversation18 titles written and published — yours could be next.
How it works
We talk it through
A conversation about your story, who you want to reach, and the shape the book wants to take.
You talk, I write
Our recorded sessions become chapters. You supply the material; I turn it into pages.
We shape the draft
Revisions until every page sounds like you — not like someone writing on your behalf.
We get it published
Editing, formatting, and cover through to a finished book you can hold.
