From outer success to inner search
For a long time, my life looked exactly how I thought it should look: A sucessful sales career, a busy dating life, constant travel – from the outside, everything looked perfect.
Inside, something else was happening.
There was a restlessness I couldn’t name.
It felt like life was running on its own and I wasn’t the one driving anymore. I was slowly burning out, my body falling apart and I didn’t like the person I was becoming.
Whenever things got quiet, my thoughts got louder – constant worrying and overthinking.
It was easy to hide all of it behind a mask of achievements and the identity I had built for myself.
And for a while, I did exactly that.
Why I do this work
This wasn’t just my story – it was a pattern.
And supporting high-performing men through it became the foundation of my work. Not because there’s something wrong with them – but because they’ve been holding too much, for too long.
My approach is simple, but deep: We use breath, body awareness and honest reflections to return to what’s already inside you. Not to fix you, but to bring you back to you.
How I work –
and what I believe in
This isn’t classic coaching.
It’s not about performing better or becoming more efficient – even if your energy, sleep and HRV will naturally improve along the way.
This work goes deeper.
It’s about reconnecting with the inner peace beneath the noise. The presence you feel when life flows — independent of achievement.
Our breath is the direct pathway to our emotions.
It helps us feel - not just think - what truly matters, and opens the space for lasting change.
So that everyday feels more like a Friday.
Breath-led transformation
The most direct way to regulate your nervous system is through the breath — creating embodied change that lasts.
Mindset coaching
Uncovering and shifting limiting beliefs you’ve been carrying for years — often without awareness — and creating inner alignment.
Full integration support
Transformation unfolds in daily life. You’re supported as it happens, not only in the session.

The moment things shifted
I tried many ways to find my way back to myself – silent meditation and yoga retreats, plant medicine, coaching, countless self-development books. All of it helped, but the real shift came with breathwork.
For the first time in years, I felt myself again.
Learning how to use my breath to regulate my nervous system changed everything — I knew this was my path.
Later, when I lived and worked at a mindfulness retreat, I facilitated weekly men’s groups and realised how many men were carrying the same weight I used to carry.
What others have experienced
Alan's breathwork sessions were transformative for our Just Spices team - helping us release unconscious stress and reset. More than wellness workshops, they built real resilience. Highly recommended for any leader aiming to foster resilience and focus in their team.

Alan’s breathwork sessions helped me reconnect to my power, joy and inner clarity – I felt the shift immediately. His grounded presence and the depth of the sessions stayed with me long after.
Breathwork is now a practical tool in my daily life. Even a few conscious breaths now help me come back to center and feel present again. I highly recommend working with him.
