About
I'm not a guru.I'm someone who fell apart and rebuilt.
At 45 I was 80 lbs overweight, exhausted, and being told my labs looked fine. The answers were there. Nobody had ever looked for them. Now looking for them is my whole job.

Two years ago I lost everything I thought defined me: my 22-year marriage, my identity, and any sense of what a good life was supposed to look like. I was 80 lbs overweight, exhausted, and running on stress hormones. My bloodwork said I was fine. My body said the opposite.
I did what most people do first. I asked my doctor and got a prescription and fifteen minutes. I asked another one and got the same answer. Somewhere in there I realized the model wasn't broken, it just wasn't built to answer my question.
So I went looking. Functional testing. Gut work. Hormone panels. The things nobody had ever ordered for me. Every one of them came back with something worth fixing, and those things had been driving my symptoms for years.
I lost the weight. My biological age came back at 38 at age 45. But the real change was what happened to the person underneath, and that is what I got obsessive about: the system, not the before-and-after photo.
I became an IHP Certified Health Coach because I couldn't stop thinking about how many people are sitting in the exact seat I was in, being told they're fine while feeling anything but. That's why The Awakened Man exists.
"Every person has a version of themselves that is stronger, clearer, and more alive than the one they're currently living as. My job is to help them find it."
How I work
Root cause first. Data driven. Built around you.
Investigate before you guess
Every protocol starts with data. Your body is not a template, and neither is your plan. If we haven't tested it, we don't claim to know it.
Build around your results, not a program
What worked for someone else is a hypothesis for you. We build off what your own panels show, then adjust as they change.
Stay until it actually works
This is not a course you finish alone. We meet, we read the changes together, and we keep going until you feel like yourself again.
Say the honest thing
If this isn't the right fit, or if something belongs with your physician instead of me, I'll tell you on the first call.
In their words
Clients who did the work.
"Adam is the first coach who didn't try to sell me one lane. We fixed my training, my bloodwork, and the grief I'd been sitting on, in the same week."
"I came in thinking I needed a better workout plan. Three months later my sleep is different, my energy is different, and I actually like the person in the mirror."
"The daily access is the difference. Every time I was about to spiral, there was a human on the other end."
Results vary between clients. Every one of these people stayed with the process.
