I’m Mike, and I created the Iron & Ember Project because too many men 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 men 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 men rebuild their lives, their relationships, and their sense of purpose.
The men I work with are:
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. life coaching for men struggling get a life coach
