“A journey will have pain and failure. It is not only the steps forward that we must accept. It is the stumbles. The trials. The knowledge that we will fail. That we will hurt those around us.
But if we stop, if we accept the person we are when we fail, the journey ends. That failure becomes our destination.”

DAVE IS A FIREFIGHTER/ENGINEER AND PERSONAL COACH, AND THROUGH ENDURING HIS OWN TRAUMA AND HARDSHIPS HAS FOUND PURPOSE IN SUPPORTING SAMMY ON THIS MISSION…
“There is one thing we want to make very crystal clear. We both have made many mistakes in our past... Mistakes in our relationships, in our families, in our health, our careers, financials, friendships, decisions. Mistakes are only problems if we don’t learn from them. We do not hide from our mistakes, or pretend that they are not a part of us. We are here now, we met each other in our messes, and we have created elevate coaching, because of our mistakes. We have decided to commit to work hard, everyday, in an effort to not repeat the mistakes of our pasts, and to use our pains and struggles as our purpose and as our drive as a team.”
WE WILL FAIL. WE WILL MAKE MORE MISTAKES.
AND.
WE WILL KEEP GOING… KEEP LEARNING.
ETHOS.
Our word... is our bond.
We are here to serve you- the helpers, the responders, the warriors. Others have helped us pave our way... through trauma, struggle, adversity, despair, successes, and now it is our honor and our duty to use the light that guided us, to pave a way for you.
We believe that discomfort is necessity. We believe in the power of pain, and in the power of vulnerability.
We believe in the power of community.
We are unapologetically ourselves. Broken and built. Life has presented us obstacles. Those obstacles have played a huge part in our story. They are the reason we met each other, have come together, the reason we continue to struggle, and the reason we continue to thrive. We thrive by supporting others.
We promise you passion. Passion driven by human connection. We are not better than you. We are wounded and imperfect. We are not untouched by life's storms. We sink in storms. We work hard to rebuild. Then eventually we swim.
Elevate Coaching is about learning to sink and swim together.
We promise you, consistent:
Confidentiality
Integrity
Grit
Honesty
Truth
Dedication
We are helpers for helpers. We are encouragers for encouragers. We are support for the supporters.
We are people for the people.
