You built your success.
Now live it.
I work privately with five founders and leaders a year. Together we figure out who you’re becoming, and you start living that way while we work.
A first conversation. You tell me where you are, ask me anything you like, and if I’m the wrong person for this, I’ll say so.
With Nathaniel Boyle · Boulder, Colorado
What a year of this leaves you with.
Clarity on the real question
The question you’ve been carrying around, finally clear enough to answer.
An identity shift
A clear picture of who you’re becoming, tested against real decisions through the year.
A first real move
Your next step, named and on the calendar, and then taken.
A way of reading your own life
Something you can keep using for years after we stop meeting.
You’ve reached the edge of the map you know.
You’re capable. You’ve led people and carried a lot of weight. You’re usually the one other people bring their hard questions to. Right now you’re carrying one of your own, about your work, the next chapter, or the person you can feel yourself becoming, and there’s no obvious person to take it to. Your sleep and your health may already be telling you.
Stuck
Circling one big decision for months. A move, a hire, a sale, or whether to stay at all, and you can’t get clear.
In transition
You’ve sold, stepped back, or you’re about to. The next chapter hasn’t taken shape yet, and everyone assumes you’re fine.
Lost your why
It still works. The reason you started has gone quiet.
Outgrown the room
The people and arrangements that fit five years ago don’t fit now, and saying so has costs.
The Crossing:one year, in six parts.
It’s a private year. We start by mapping where you are, and we finish by naming who you’ve become. Along the way there’s a daily practice, deep inner work and a journey, and we meet one to one every month. Read about the full year

Underneath it allis Holocene.
Holocene is the framework I’ve spent years building. It uses curiosity and creativity to do real identity work, and more than three hundred people have walked it. Its eight stages work as waymarkers. In your mapping they show me where you stand, and through the year they shape the work in every session. See the eight stages
“You already know more than you think. My job is to help you hear it.”
I’ve been an entrepreneur for most of my adult life. For the past 15 years I’ve run my own creative agency, helping early-stage founders build their brands, some of them all the way to an exit. I’ve sat on your side of the table and made the same kinds of calls you’re making now.
Holocene grew out of The Travelers, the podcast I started in 2014 to tell stories about life, travel and the people who change us along the way. It’s reached hundreds of thousands of listeners. More than three hundred people have used the framework to find their story and chart their growth, coming out more self-aware, confident and fulfilled, with real change they can point to.
I do my best work with people who want straight talk about where they are. If that sounds like you, we’ll get along.
No pressure, no commitment.Just a real talk about where you are.
If you’ve got a question you’d take to the right person, if only you knew who that was, let’s have that conversation.
A first conversation. You tell me where you are, ask me anything you like, and if I’m the wrong person for this, I’ll say so.
