You've been thinking about this.Let's make it a decision.
This isn't a program. It's a private conversation with someone who has been exactly where you are and built a framework around getting out deliberately.
- Private, one-to-one, and completely confidential
- You work with me directly, never a certified coach or a team
- I review every application personally and reply within 24 hours
- Not sure you're ready? Take the stage assessment first.
Coaching that treats you like the professional you are.
- Retired from alcohol April 16, 2025, after 6 years of intentional preparation
- LDL reduced 29% and 14 lbs lost in 4 months, two medications eliminated within 10 months
- Career enterprise sales and GTM executive, Boise, Idaho
- Peer-level coaching, not counseling, not a program
Most sobriety support is built around crisis. You don't have a crisis. You have a decision you've been circling for years, and you're ready to make it with someone who understands exactly what that looks like from the inside.
Coaching with me is private, confidential, and built around the five-stage Prepared Sobriety framework. Sessions are structured around where you actually are, not where a generic program thinks you should be.
No steps. No meetings. No labels. Just a deliberate exit strategy built for how you actually think.
It's a Wednesday, you've worked until 8, and you're standing in the kitchen negotiating with yourself over whether tonight's the night you pour a drink anyway. That's not a moment you white-knuckle through alone. That's what ongoing coaching is built for.
Not everyone is ready. You might be.
- 01
You're successful by every external measure, but alcohol has become a quiet concern you don't talk about at work or with most people in your life.
- 02
You've been thinking about this for months or years, not days. The thought doesn't go away. You just haven't acted on it yet.
- 03
You've tried setting rules. Only weekends. Only wine. Only after 5. The rules didn't hold, and you're done pretending they will.
- 04
You aren't in crisis. You don't need an intervention. You need a framework and a peer who has been through the process and can help you build toward a specific date.
- 05
Discretion matters. You want a private, well-considered exit that nobody needs to know about until you decide to share it.
A real conversation. Then a real plan.
- 01
Start the conversation
Fill out the short application. Tell me where you are in the process. No wrong answer. This is where everything starts.
- 02
30-minute discovery call
If your application is a fit, I'll reach out to schedule a complimentary 30-minute call. You talk directly with me, Colin, not a certified coach trained on someone else's method. You get a clear sense of whether this is the right approach for where you are. If the timing isn't right, I'll tell you that directly.
- 03
Framework sessions
We work through the framework together. Mental preparation, identity, relationships, professional edge, the long game. Sessions are paced around where you are and where you're going.
- 04
Your retirement date
We land on a specific date and a specific plan. Not a hope. A decision you've already made, documented and committed to. That's what makes this different from everything else you've tried.
One path doesn't fit everyone. So there are two.
Some want a single candid conversation. Some want me alongside them the whole way. You choose, and you can move between them as your needs change.
A single private conversation
One focused 1:1 call to talk it through openly and leave with a clear picture of your next step. Many continue with ongoing guidance from here.
One-time 1:1 call
Ongoing 1:1 guidance
Regular private calls with me as you move through the five stages, paced to your life and your calendar. The deepest level of support, for as long as it's useful.
Recurring 1:1, paced to you
Investment discussed privately on our first call.
From people who watched the change happen.
“It was only afterward that I realized just how much sharper Colin is now. The clarity, the patience, the speed with which he tackles complex problems is all just a different league. We met in business school seven years ago and I've watched him operate at a high level the entire time. But this version is something else. Prepared Sobriety is built for high-performing professionals who already know what excellence looks like and want to know what else they're capable of.”
Doug C.
CFO and Executive Advisor
“I noticed the change before he told me what he was doing. Sharper on strategy calls, and just quicker on his feet in general. When Colin finally told me he'd retired from alcohol, it made sense. I told him people were watching. Turns out I was right, and that's the core of what Prepared Sobriety is. He doesn't talk about it like recovery. He talks about it like a career decision. For anyone in tech wondering whether drinking is quietly costing them something, this is the most impactful framework I've come across.”
Tony J.
Client Advisor
You don't have to keep thinking about it alone.
A complimentary 30-minute call, one-on-one with me. Or send an application and I'll reply personally within 24 hours.
