About Me
From Passion to Profession
Hi! I’m Josh, but some people call me The Candid Coach. I grew up in a small town in Massachusetts and went on to earn my Bachelors Degree University of Akron, and my Masters Degree at the California Institute of The Arts. While living in California, I developed a passion for training, teaching, and coaching people in all sorts of areas. whether it was for their professional life or their personal life, I thrived on helping people find their confidence and reach new heights in whatever they were trying to do!
It was from this passion where I had some professional colleagues and some personal friends talk to me about how they think I would love the world of Life Coaching. After giving it some thought I decided to jump into the world of Life Coaching and they were right!
I went on the receive my CLC and MCLC Certificates from the Certified Life Coaching Institute and started this truly fun and rewarding business that you are looking at today. And one thing about me that is very clear: I’m exactly what my nickname is…CANDID!
I’m the type of person that doesn’t sugarcoat anything and calls it like I see it. I find clear honesty to be refreshing and eye opening and many of my clients agree. I like to bring fun and humor into my coaching, but can definitely flip the switch and get serious when necessary. This helps clients notice their emotions in various topics and helps them find ways to learn and grow.
But enough about me, I want to know about you!

Krizzanne - California
Janet - North Carolina
Josh was nothing short of kind, helpful, and insightful. It was my first time trying a life coach and id say it’s well worth it! I would highly recommend his services.
Marquece - Michigan
Working with Josh has been a great experience so far. He’s not only a caring life coach but also honest and committed to keeping me on track to accomplish my goals. Unlike previous coaches I interviewed—who limited sessions to a single topic—Josh allows the flexibility to explore multiple areas as needed. I really value that adaptability. Josh is an exceptional person with strong character, and I would highly recommend him to anyone feeling stuck or uncertain about their direction in life. He offers practical steps and genuine support to help you move closer to your goals!
William - California
I found Josh at a time when I truly needed guidance the most. There comes a point in life when you know it’s time to grow to the next level, but getting there requires learning new tools to process emotions, separate feelings from decisions, and take rational next steps with clarity. Josh coached me through that candidly and with genuine care. What stood out most is his ability to help me recognize patterns that were holding me back and replace them with practical, effective strategies. His approach isn’t about quick fixes alone, but building lasting skills that allow you to see challenges for what they are without letting emotions cloud your judgment. Working with Josh has been transformative. He creates a safe, supportive space while also challenging you to think differently and take accountability. I’ve walked away with more confidence, a sharper mindset, and the resilience to handle what life throws at me. I was able to see changes in my approach within just a few sessions. I’m so grateful for his coaching and would recommend him to anyone ready to grow into the best version of themselves.
