Our Mission

I’m Mike, and I created the Iron & Ember Project because too many People are struggling in silence. Too many are stuck, disconnected, or don’t know where the hell they're going. I’ve seen friends take their own lives, fall into despair, and wrestle with a sense of purposelessness. That’s why I’m here — to help others become the best version of themselves.

The Iron & Ember Project isn't about fluff. There are no "motivational" quotes, no feel-good soundbites, and no hand-holding. I’m here to give it to you straight, no bullshit, no sugar-coating. If you want to make real change in your life, you need a real approach. That’s what I provide. Honest, no-nonsense guidance that’s based on truth — even if it’s hard to hear.

My own journey wasn’t easy. I’ve been through a broken engagement, felt the crushing weight of isolation, and faced those dark days where getting out of bed felt like a mountain to climb. But here’s the thing: I made it through. And I’m living proof that, no matter how tough it gets, you can come out stronger on the other side.

I have a background in bridge engineering, so I know the importance of building strong foundations. And that’s exactly what I do. I take the analytical mindset I used to solve complex problems and apply it to help others rebuild their lives, their relationships, and their sense of purpose.

The select few I work with are:

  • Struggling in their marriages, feeling disconnected, or unsure how to fix things
     
  • Questioning their purpose or career direction and feeling lost in the process
     
  • Facing depression or suicidal thoughts and need a real way forward, not just advice that glosses over the pain
     
  • Trying to reconcile who they are right now with who they want to be — and needing a plan to get there
     

I don’t waste time with fluff. If you’re ready to do the work, I’ll help you get brutally honest with yourself, break free from the patterns that are holding you back, and build a new framework for your life — one that’s rooted in clarity, purpose, and action. I’m not here to coddle you. I’ve walked through hell myself, so I get it. But I’m also here to tell you this: You don’t have to stay stuck. You can change, but only if you’re ready to face the truth and put in the work, let us connect.

Our Coaching Philosophy

Strategic Planning

At IPE, we work with clients who feel stuck, overlooked, or unsure of how to move forward in their personal or professional lives. Our team brings extensive experience in coaching both men and women, with a tailored approach that meets each person exactly where they are.

Coaching for Men

Many men come to us feeling disconnected from their confidence — unsure of their direction, struggling with dating, or feeling like they’re constantly passed over at work. We specialize in helping men rebuild a sense of strength, clarity, and purpose by developing:

  • Genuine self-confidence
  • Strong communication skills
  • Healthy habits and routines
  • A grounded sense of identity
  • Presence and assertiveness
  • Personal and professional momentum

We focus on helping men feel powerful in their own bodies, capable, respected, and fully aligned with their potential.

Coaching for Women

We also work with women who are feeling unseen, unheard, or stuck — whether that’s in their careers, relationships, or self-image. We help women reconnect with their confidence and direction by building:

  • Personal clarity
  • Emotional resilience
  • Professional presence
  • Communication and boundary-setting skills
  • Healthy relationship patterns
  • A lifestyle that supports their goals

Our goal is to help women step into visibility, voice, and self-assurance.

Signature Enhancement Suite

For clients seeking a complete transformation, our Signature Enhancement Suite provides optional upgrades through our trusted style and image specialists. These enhancements are custom-priced and delivered by our professionals, ensuring a refined, high-caliber experience beyond traditional coaching.
