Curt Pollock

Coach, Facilitator, Wilderness Guide, and Social Worker

Leading a rich, meaningful life is hard to do in our complex world, and, consequently, most of us find ourselves “in over our heads”; as lovers, parents, workers, and leaders. The greatest discovery I have found in my work is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their mindset.

Growing into a larger, better version of self requires fundamental changes to mindset,and that takes courage, deep learning, and a commitment to ongoing growth and development. Having a guide can help. The modes of engagement I use have the potential to increase your capacity, deepen your sense of purpose, better align your behavior with what you care deeply about, and enhance your joy. 

I love climbing, skiing, mountain hunting, reading, and my dear wife Jie, whom I live with in Anchorage, Alaska.

It is not that something different is seen, but that one sees differently. It is as though the spatial act of seeing were changed by a new dimension.
