“My own coach asked me, ‘if you could be doing anything what would it be’ and without even thinking I said I'd be coaching people on a sailboat... Thats my one thing.. I want to do. I want to invite people into
something and bring them out new.”

Every so often I like to dedicate an interview to spotlighting a business I believe more people should know about. This week is one of those episodes as my guest is Terry the Sailboat Coach. Terry Barkman is truly living his passion. He was able to combine his two loves, sailing and helping people, into one fantastic business, a sailboat excursion aimed at providing real life and business coaching out on the open water.
There is something interesting that happens to your limits and inhibitions when you are out on the open sea. With little to no technology buzzing every few moments distracting you from progression, you seem to find your thoughts expanding and changing. Terry uses his sailboat excursions to provide his clients excellent life lessons that they may not have been able to accept had they been in the comfort of their office back on land. This business is a very interesting concept that I recommend you check out.
