Feeling disconnected and frustrated with your life right now?

I can help!

A fun and inspiring monthly mentoring class connecting you in healthy ways to yourself, God, and family…

with a sweet, unexpected twist!

This is my wife, Kit. I’ve always said that she is my greatest blessing. and together we’ve brought to the world our greatest joys… our 4 kids.

We’ve felt disconnected before. It happens to all of us. However, practicing the connection principles we teach and learning to fight fiercely for what you want, will change things. The messy and miserable will transform into the healthy, happy and whole.

I have a BA in Human Development and Family Studies and am a Certified Life Coach. Kit has a BS in Broadcast Journalism and is a serial entrepreneur…and she LOVES…. WAFFLES!:) We both love to public speak, teach teenagers and adults, and spread whatever good things we can. I am so excited to again teach with Kit. Together we are connectors. It’s what we do!

Join us for our Monthly Mentoring Class! Just like the name, it’s unexpected, full of healthy habits and definitely different than any class you’ve ever had. Give it a try!

Mike and Kit are a dynamic teaching duo. I found their classes to be informative, as well as motivational. Additionally, their individual teaching styles compliment each other beautifully and made for a thoroughly enjoyable class.

The classes taught by Mike and Kit were absolutely phenomenal! They were able to incorporate relatable and applicable topics that helped us create our best selves. Each time, we felt motivated, our emotions were stirred, we felt more capable of taking on life's challenges and they had us laughing all within minutes. Truly worth it!.

Mike and Kit are awesome. They are so down to earth and make a great teaching team. Their teaching styles compliment each other so well. They are always interesting and motivating. I always felt the desire and motivation to be a better person after listening to them!

"I reached out to Mike because I was stuck in a rut, doing the same things over and over again... He gave me tools to implement in my personal life that continue to help me break through some of my fixed beliefs, allowing me to see my true potential. I am now creating an exciting new life for me and my family."

"I want to thank you for your help these past weeks. For the first time in a long time I feel hope for my future. Thank you."

"I believed my life was ok. But that’s all it was, just ok and if I were to be honest with myself I’d felt stuck for several (ok a lot of) years and didn’t know how to help myself. I was stuck in negative thought patterns and beliefs about myself that were not true. I had effectively turned down the volume on all this chaos going on inside my head but it was still there eroding my self worth and paralyzing me to almost complete inaction in my life. Mike has taught me how to listen and challenge my thoughts and that I have a choice to change them and thereby change the results I’m getting in my life. I use the tools I’m learning everyday and I’m learning to live intentionally with a greater focus on my results. I’m no longer sitting around waiting for something to happen. I make my life happen!"

"Honestly, I didn’t know much about what a Life Coach did. I was under the impression that it was more of a fad and if I’m completely honest, a lesser version of therapy. I couldn’t have been more wrong. I had the privilege to be coached by Mike Gardiner. Personally, I was in an emotional rut. I shared with him how certain negative feelings would come up when talking about certain things with my husband. I felt really stupid for even sharing because for so long, I thought I shouldn’t be feeling the way I was. What blew me away, was not only the way Mike responded, but that the process he shared with me to help move on from this actually worked. Suddenly, just being aware of my feelings and having a plan to slowly move past the negative ones, was so incredibly powerful. Sometimes you just need a great coach to guide you through. I recommend Mike Gardiner if you are looking to grow, emotionally heal, or even wanting to follow through on a goal."

"This trial has been the most heart wrenching experience of my life. I have never needed more help, support, encouragement, and love before. You have shown me so much kindness, compassion, and selfless service, that it has turned into the most beautiful experience of my life. You have been so non-judgmental and caring. I am so grateful for your help and for the tools that you have taught me. You have shown me a better way to go through this trial through your coaching. I’ll be forever grateful!”
