HI! I'M BEN...

I'm on a mission to help the world become more emotionally intelligence. 

I also love mid-90s to mid-2000s Indie/Emo/PopPunk music. 

(Some of my favorites include Jimmy Eat World, blink 182, Bright Eyes, and Yellowcard.) 

Once-upon-a-time, I was a touring musician myself, and have also spent 23 years as a teacher/mentor/community builder.

I'm on a mission to help the world become more emotionally intelligence. 

I also love mid-90s to mid-2000s Indie/Emo/PopPunk music. 

(Some of my favorites include Jimmy Eat World, blink 182, Bright Eyes, and Yellowcard.) 

Once-upon-a-time, I was a touring musician myself, and have also spent 23 years as a teacher/mentor/community builder.

When I was playing shows, I often found myself just as interested in the conversations I was having as I was in performing. The music became my way of drawing people in.

And my project, Superstar Runner, was really about recognizing human potential. 

(It was very "posi-core" as Ace Enders once put it.)

We often talk about the importance of mental health in the PopPunk community, but I've often found that other than suggestions of therapy (which I'm a major advocate of), there aren't a whole lot of resources out there to do much about it.

I felt like this was something I could help with. 

So, a few years ago, I decided to focus my attention more coaching and mentoring, 

and centered my focus on Emotional Health.

I then thought, "I wonder if there was a way in which I could combine my love of emo music AND personal transformation into an actual thing."

And so...here we are!
