SHORT BUSINESS BIO
I created Release Point Coaching to support growth-oriented professionals navigate career transitions and sabbaticals with clarity, purpose, and integrity. My practice blends modern coaching frameworks with nature-based and embodied approaches to transformation. Each experience invites clients to slow down, listen deeply, and align their lives with what truly matters. My offerings are born from the recognition that true alignment happens at the moment we stop holding so tightly, when focus, trust, and letting go meet and allow our lives to move with purpose and precision; this is the release point. My practice is informed by International Coaching Federation standards and draws from years of my own transformational experiences in addition to helping many individuals and teams navigate change. I integrate evidence-based coaching, somatic awareness, and nature-based inquiry to create sustainable transformation.

IntroductionHI, I’M JUSTIN
After nearly two decades in the fast-paced world of enterprise technology, I found myself asking a deeper question: What does it really mean to live a meaningful life? One where my soul feels as nourished as my professional and financial success.
That question began a journey of transformation that led me from corporate rooms to mountain landscapes, from burnout to balance and from trying to do it all myself to embracing others. For many years I believed that my inner sense of freedom would come from producing more; driven by subtle yet deeply rooted fears and the constant push to outperform as a sales professional, father and partner. It wasn’t until I truly learned to slow down and listen to my inner wisdom that I began to experience the kind of connection and clarity I’d been seeking all along.
I’m fortunate to have been guided by incredible coaches, mentors and teachers who supported me through the past four years of deep personal growth and skill building. Through patience and perseverance, I redefined my relationship with what I value and learned to align my choices, energy, and attention with those values. This alignment has become the foundation of how I live, work, and support others in realizing their fullest potential.
Today, as a Nature-Connected Coach, I guide professionals and high-achievers through life transitions with clarity and presence. I offer a grounded, direct-experience approach that helps clients reconnect with something greater. Together, we'll explore what it means to live in alignment with what you truly want and who you're becoming in the process.

The Release Point: Ancient Wisdom for Modern Transformation
The Release Point Coaching Process follows an ancient yet timeless arc of transformation known as Severance, Threshold, and Incorporation. Each phase reflects the moment of the archer’s release, when focus, trust, and letting go come together in one fluid motion. It is a practice of awareness, surrender, and integration that mirrors the natural cycles of change.
Severance - Drawing Back the Bow - Every transformation begins with tension, the deliberate act of drawing energy backward before it can move forward. In Severance, we explore what is ready to be released…old patterns, expectations, and identities that no longer serve your growth. This phase is about gathering focus and preparing the ground for what is to come. Through guided reflection, embodied awareness, and nature-based practices, you begin to see what is holding you and what you are ready to let go of. Severance is an act of honoring, a conscious release that creates space for clarity and possibility.
Threshold: The Release Point -The Threshold is the pause between holding and letting go. It is the moment when trust replaces control and presence becomes your guide. Here, you step into the unknown with awareness rather than certainty. Like the archer releasing the string, your energy moves freely when resistance softens. This is where deep connection forms—between mind and body, self and nature, intention and movement. It is the living experience of flow, when life begins to move through you rather than be pursued by you. This is where the expected meets the unexpected.
Incorporation: The Arrows Flight & Return - Incorporation is the integration of what has been set in motion. It is the path of the arrow finding its mark, and the practice of bringing new awareness back into daily life. Together, we anchor insights through reflection, ritual, and actionable steps that sustain change over time. This phase is about an embodiment practice; aligning choices, relationships, and rhythms with the deeper truth you’ve uncovered. It completes the arc of transformation and prepares you for new beginnings with steadiness and grace.
The coaching journey often incorporates age-old maps of transformation, the same archetypal patterns described by Joseph Campbell in The Hero’s Journey and Maureen Murdock in The Heroine’s Journey. These frameworks help us recognize where we are always in the natural rhythm of change and to meet those passages with awareness, courage, and reverence.
Depending on the level of agreement between us, I have a number of formats for tracking, measuring and actively collaborating through all stages of the coaching process.
