The Year’s End Reset starts December 1. Learn more here
You don’t have to choose between your career and your inner life.
I teach Tibetan Buddhist meditation and I sell real estate in New York City. For years I kept those in separate boxes, until it got hard to ignore that the practice was the reason the hustle worked. Plain English, real methods, and you don’t have to move to a cave.
It all looks fine from the outside.
You’re good at your job. You’ve tried the apps, and you got ten minutes of calm that lasted until the second email. That’s not a you problem. The tools that actually move the mind are about 2,500 years old and most of them never made it into an app.
What people come to me with
- Awake at 1am, running the deal again
- At dinner with the family, but not really
- Snapping at the kids over nothing
- The same fight with a different person
- Successful on paper and kind of flat about it
What they want more of
- A mind that stays in the room
- Hearing bad news without it running the whole day
- A little warning before they blow up
- Some actual sleep
- The feeling that this is their life, and they’re in it
Why this works
These methods come from Tibetan Buddhism. I’ve been studying them for about 20 years with my teacher, Lama Hector, at Three Jewels in New York. They’re precise, they’re old, and you don’t need to believe anything for them to work.
You can start small. Here’s how.
Where to start
Start free
Stop Waking Up Tired, a nine minute guided meditation you do in bed. My voice, no music, nothing to read.
The Year’s End Reset
24 days of guided meditation in your inbox, starting December 1. Fifteen to thirty minutes each morning, five live calls, and a group of people doing it with you.
Private study
Twelve weeks, one on one, in English or Spanish. I take a few people at a time, and we start with a conversation to see if it fits.
For your team
A one hour session, a four week team Reset, or a standing weekly sit. In your office or on Zoom. No chanting, and nobody has to believe anything.

“The way that he shares powerful philosophical ideas in a practical way (with the occasional F bomb) keeps things fun and genuinely transformative.”
Ethan Atteo, student
The weekly email
One a week. Usually something I got wrong, and what the practice did about it. It’s free and you can leave whenever.
My Pledge
15% of what comes in here goes to Three Jewels, the dharma center where I study and teach.
