Josh reminds me to speak from where I am. The idea that there’s no ideal state is exactly what has given me the tools to relax and enjoy the craft of acting.

I have delivered two lectures on sustainability at one of the top business schools in the country, and I DID NOT SHAKE DURING THE LECTURES (yes I am yelling). Instead, I used the sensations in my body as reminders. I did not view my body as the enemy, but an ally in communication. WTF Josh!? I had seen therapists, a doctor, shamanic practitioners, acupuncturists, and the list goes on...I did FIVE YEARS in Toastmasters to try to get over it. After working with you I feel so much better. THANK YOU. So, you are my superhero now..

Working with Josh was extremely empowering, and also profound.

Single greatest takeaway….
It’s all good. All my sensations, feelings, fears, “blocks”, worries are human, are welcome and are fuel for my work. This realization has opened me to an immense sense of possibilities as well as peace. This has permeated all areas of my life especially when things get overwhelming and stressful.
Josh creates a space of tremendous acceptance and trust that is quite profound, and I am grateful to have worked with him.

Dear Josh,
I wanted to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for all the insight and wisdom you shared with me during our time coaching together. You've had such an impact on my journey as an actor, writer, and *aspiring* entrepreneur, and I can't thank you enough.
Your mentorship has been invaluable, not only in honing my acting skills but also in fostering a mindset of openness and vulnerability. Your unwavering belief in the power of authentic communication has encouraged me to have open and honest conversations with my agents, enabling me to voice my creative desires and aspirations without holding back.
Additionally, you've been such a source of inspiration for how to craft a life as both an actor and entrepreneur and the incredible possibilities that exist in doing so. Your ability to seamlessly navigate the worlds of acting, teaching, and entrepreneurship is nothing short of remarkable. Witnessing your accomplishments has ignited a fire within me, prompting me to reconnect with my passion for writing and ultimately take the leap to launch my own wellness coaching business. Your guidance has been instrumental in every step of this journey, and for that, I am beyond grateful.
Above all, working with you has reignited my joy and creativity in acting. The techniques we explored and the discussions we've had have pushed me to explore new depths in my craft. Your belief in me has been a game-changer, and I can't thank you enough for that.
Overall, I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for your incredible mentorship.

I feel that the coaching work over the past year has laid a solid foundation for my career and prepared me for this next phase - even if I didn't plan for it. It has been instrumental in getting me to the other side of a major life/career transition; making my pursuits real - not just ideas; and helping to establish a structure to my workflow.
I do not feel my business and creative endeavors would be set up to move forward - on my own - without the coaching.
-KATE MACK
Actor, writer, entrepreneur
Welcoming the unknown was key.
I have increased trust that my creativity is in my body (and not the mind). I've been discovering how to make what I'm feeling in the moment fit the text, rather than rely on logical pre-set ideas. It's been fun and has led to many beautiful choices I wouldn't have thought of otherwise.
Business-wise, I am more willing to take action and put myself out there, even if it feels scary and uncomfortable. Putting together an acting business plan was totally new for me. I'm looking forward to shifting more and more into this way of operating.
I really value the structured accountability that coaching has given me. It's a way of showing up for myself and not letting myself down.

I've been a singer, songwriter, and performer my entire life and performed for thousands of people. Two years ago I had a panic attack before going on stage that came out of nowhere. I had never had one in my life, and I never had a problem going on stage.
My career was starting to really take off, but fear was taking me down.
Ever since that experience I suffered tremendous anxiety and panic that was debilitating before shows. Although I never let it stop me from performing, the pain was so draining that I was very ready to give up. I tried several different healing modalities and read every self-help book under the sun. While some of the work I did was very beneficial, nothing was helping me in those moments of panic seconds, hours, or even days leading up to a show.
Through Josh's guidance, I was able to experience a level of presence, aliveness, connection, and creativity that I had never experienced before.
I now realize how much of my life I spent in my head completely disengaged from the present moment. Not only has his technique helped me as a performer, but it has also helped me as a songwriter. I am far more available to access spontaneity that has allowed for exciting choices that I never would have come up with otherwise.
-ALISHA ZALKIN
Coaching with Josh has really enabled me to own who I am and what I do. I no longer feel like I have to prove to people that I’m a musician, I simply am a musician.
Before coaching I felt a strong need for others to validate me as an artist.
Josh has given me tools to be fully embodied as a working musician and feel that truth from within myself. This has affected how I put myself out there to the world, and also how I make music.
Josh has a unique ability to help people unlock their creative potential while also expanding their career success in an integrated and seamless way.
He’s helped me see that owning who I am is actually much more profitable than trying to fit into what I think people want. On top of that, he’s given me some great practical steps and challenges that have helped push me beyond my normal comfort level, and the results have been great.

I had the honor of working with Josh over a number of years learning and practicing his groundbreaking techniques! From a medical and health standpoint, being in the present moment improves resilience against stress as well as improves emotional states, creativity and the ability to be more productive.
Present moment awareness takes practice, as we are trained growing up to be thinking about the past or future rather than being aware and mindful of what is happening right at this moment. In a true present moment state, a person is more relaxed and brain waves can shift to a calmer place such as low beta wave (focused, introspection, calm) and alpha wave (calm, creative, and relaxed). In present moment awareness the brain is generally not in a high-beta wave (associated with stress, anxiety and agitation) and networks in the brain are more connected and working well together. In this state of present moment awareness (associated with mindfulness) people tend to be less reactive, more retrospective, and more resilient. Studies continue to show how negatively stress and our relationship to stress impacts our lives from a health standpoint and can cause disease, especially after years of heightened stress levels.
Josh's 4 Access Points and his work to get people feeling sensations and emotions in the body rather than working and reacting from the head truly puts people in an embodied state where they are living in and working from the present moment. The health and healing benefits to truly master being a "present moment practitioner" are vast, and his work is so powerful for getting people there quickly!
