Our Business Life Coach, J. Andrew Leaf, has been a quadriplegic for over 40 years and has been involved in business all his life. He knows how to balance physical abilities with the many demands of running a business. He can assist you in overcoming the physical and psychological barriers to successful self-employment.

Business-Life Coaching is designed to empower you, the entrepreneur; to help you through the many challenges you face when starting up a business, not just the business aspects but also communication, and lifestyle skills needed to be successful. Our goal is to help you connect your head and your heart in a way that transforms your passion into beneficial action for you and your business's success.
