LAST DAY TO JOIN: TODAY AUG 18.

Program Begins August 14.

Here's what's happening…

I'm piloting an exclusive leadership reset program and I want you to be part of it.

It's called Play Your Game and the outcome is simple:

Start the school year clear, confident, and fully aligned — without burnout, without second-guessing, and without playing someone else's game.

That’s our goal for the next 8 weeks.

And if you're reading this, it means you want my help finally leading on your own terms.

How We Are Going To Do This:

Over the next 8 weeks, we are going to help you burn the old playbook and design a leadership operating system that works for YOU.

  1. The Lead Domino Reset: This isn’t just an audit — it’s a strategic realignment. You’ll identify the one domino that, when knocked down, sets the rest of your leadership in motion.
  2. The Do School Different Scorecard: A personalized leadership roadmap built on the last ten years coaching school leaders around the world. You’ll move from reactionary management to intentional design.
  3. The Implementation Engine: A weekly rhythm, decision framework, and execution cadence that helps you stay consistent — even when chaos hits.

Here's the Step-by-Step Path:

Phase One (Weeks 1–3): Reboot

Week 1: Lead Domino Reset – This isn't just an assessment — it's strategic alignment. You'll audit and score your current life and leadership areas, aligning personal values with professional aspirations. Find where your energy is best spent and what’s holding you back.

Week 2: Ruckus Maker Rules – You'll define the 3 core rules that govern how you lead, filter decisions, and shape your campus culture. These rules become your leadership compass — clear, personal, and unapologetically yours.

Week 3: Vision Reboot – This is where vision meets execution. You’ll craft a powerful 90-day personal and professional breakthrough goal and align your team for success. Your vision becomes a tangible plan with clear milestones.

Phase Two (Weeks 4-6): Redesign

Week 4: Do School Different Blueprint – Design shifts on your campus worth rallying around. Reimagine what school could look like when you’re the author — not just the implementer.

Week 5: Implementation Engine – This is where strategy turns into action. You’ll build a weekly rhythm and accountability cadence to stay aligned and consistent — without adding more to your plate.

Week 6: High Performance Accelerator – This is about momentum without burnout. Install personal and professional rituals that give you energy, and access the community support needed to stay accountable.

Phase Three (Weeks 7-8): Reinforce

Week 7: Impact Reflection System – Sustainable leadership requires renewal. You’ll use reflection tools and rhythms to measure impact, celebrate wins, and learn from challenges. This system ensures continuous growth.

Week 8: Integration + Celebration – Pull it all together. Cement your identity as a leader who plays their own game — and take that energy into the school year.

With this system, you'll start the school year with energy, clarity, and a leadership identity that’s yours — not borrowed.

What Ruckus Makers Say About Our Program

Your Commitment:

You'll join a community of visionary school leaders and assistant principals inside our private Ruckus Maker Club.

We'll meet live once per week on Zoom for coaching and implementation. Calls will take place Thursdays at 6pm ET. If you miss a live call there will be a recording.

You’ll get access to tools, templates, and a high-signal digital space for ongoing feedback and connection.

The Investment:

My goal with Play Your Game is to make it an easy “YES.”

Option 1: One-Time Investment (Save $100): $300 total if you pay in full. Sign up for the pay in full and save $100.

Option 2: Weekly Installments: $50/week for 8 weeks = $400 total. Sign up for the weekly option here.

If you learn to lead on your terms, it’s easy to reclaim 3-5 hours a week and have more time for family and friends at home.

Love It or Leave It:

Play Your Game is coaching + community, not a hostage situation.

You can leave anytime with no contracts or penalties.

In other words, get started for just $50 a week. Stay as long as you are getting value. Leave any time.

However, if you do leave before completing the program, you'll need to wait a year before rejoining, and the pricing will definitely have increased by then.

Guarantees and Promises:

No guarantees, big promises, or refunds. Your results depend on your execution and commitment. I will show you exactly what I would do in your situation.

But like I said before, if you aren’t getting the results expected, then leave at any time and cancel your membership.
