From writers and other creatives to visionaries and difference-makers, people become my clients because I use story in a new way to help them nurture originality and the creative process—so producing creative, rich solutions becomes as natural as breathing. See BreakthroughStoryCoaching.com. Some of the people I help include:► Writers, artists, composers, directors, and others who want to be truly original and who are blocked or facing a deadline► Leaders who want to improve their organizational vision or who are confronting a crisis or destructive conflictIs this you? If so, contact me: david@btstorycoach.com.Here’s some information about how I work:You may be aware that the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves often limit us – twisting our self-image, stifling relationships, strangling creativity. But you don’t have to be a victim of your stories. My progressive definition of story (as opposed to narrative) provides a sophisticated understanding of your story’s underlying structure, enabling you to take control of yourself and the situation from inside the story. You can organically change your role, the direction of the story, and create an effective positive impact.Here’s a bit more about me:As a talent and literary agent and executive in Hollywood and New York, I worked with writers, directors and other creatives involved in motion pictures, television, theatre and books – often coaching them through blocks to find inventive solutions and meet deadlines.In addition, I have 20+ years coaching, managing, and mediating companies, executives, individuals, and groups to creatively solve complex and consequential, large value, multi-party, high pressure situations requiring strategic vision, trust building, and negotiation expertise. As a consultant, I developed and wrote organizational and business plans that successfully increased revenues and raised millions of dollars. With full executive authority, I turned-around 25 media projects valued at $3M to $35M that were on the verge of failure. My legal training also plays a role in helps me support clients to better assess situations and outcomes, expand opportunities, and evaluate risks from multiple perspectives. I am also a Certified CINERGY Conflict Management Coach with 20+ years as a mediator. My expertise regarding causes, types, and strategies to prevent and resolve conflict is on display in articles and a book, FREE YOURSELF FROM CONFLICT (March 2021).

Creative Process, Executive, Conflict Coach: Using Story To Open Creative Flow For Creatives And OthersBreakthrough Story CoachingPetaluma, Ca, Us -
Creative Process, Executive, Conflict Coach: Using Story To Open Creative Flow For Creatives/OthersBreakthrough Story Coaching 2019 - PresentSan Francisco Bay AreaBreakthrough Story Coaching is the product of work I have been doing for 20+ years involving creativity, conflict, exoteric studies, and client relationships with their internal and external worlds. Genuinely productive creativity is the result of the natural human connection with the imaginal world of infinite unmanifested possibilities. Plato, Suhrawardy, and mystics from many religions, among others, have written about this Imaginal world.It is possible to cultivate and strengthen this relationship—which is essential for all kinds of creatives (such as writers, painters, and composers), as well as entrepreneurs and difference-makers who want to develop an expansive organizational vision or materialize out-of-the-box opportunities.I use story to help clients work through their blocks and transform their connection with the imaginal world into a loving relationship based on harmony, freedom, balance, self-compassion, and trust in the process. I have found that the stories we tell ourselves about ourselves can stifle our creativity or help open the flow. Real growth, however, demands that we work from within these stories so that the story itself organically leads to change. And we must have a definition that not only describes a story or lists its elements, but also reveals its path and discrete steps. I have evolved in my definition of story and its applications, but the origins of this work are in my book: FREE YOURSELF FROM CONFLICT. This breakthrough process utilizing story is a result of my understanding and wide-ranging practical experience solving conflict—not only among people but also with their environment and circumstances. In addition, my work in the entertainment industry with creatives and their process, as a coach with executives and others, and as a strategic business consultant has provided a dynamic frame. I have described some of this generative work below. -
Author Of Free Yourself From Conflict: Growing From Pain & Regret Of Conflict To Kindness…And PeaceConflict Alchemy Jan 2007 - PresentSan Francisco Bay AreaConflicts happen every day, and solving them can become as easy, natural, and life-affirming as breathing. This book provides a simple 3-Step method—based on experience, science, and esoteric psychology—that organically resolves conflicts while it opens hearts. The book’s clear approach develops self-awareness and understanding about the nature of conflict that makes compassionate actions and genuine solutions possible in even the most difficult situations – so conflict becomes opportunity.For coaches, mediators and other conflict professionals this approach effectively builds trust, melts resistance, and builds solutions based on real needs. Skill-building exercises follow each chapter.Here is what some people say about the book:► …So inspiring I found myself reading parts to my friends … David’s simple 3-Steps enable people to turn a conflict or terrible situation inside out and get amazing results. This is a revolutionary presentation of a process that I know works.Patricia Omidian, Ph.D.Co-Founder, Focusing Initiatives International► …Offers a method, with techniques and a process, to remake yourself … David’s book…finds a path for hope and sane decision-making, as well as offering the “other” person a path to forgiveness.Jack HealeyFormer Executive Director, Amnesty International USA► …Appeals to the heart and spirit as well as the mind.

Mediator For Commercial And Other DisputesConflict Alchemy Jan 2003 - PresentSan Francisco Bay AreaWould you rather make a profit or prove that you are right in tough disputes? As the owner of Deal Alchemy, I advocate for the proactive resolution of conflicts before they turn into debilitating lawsuits. I believe the most opportune moment for mediation is five minutes before a complaint is filed. It may be the last opportunity for principals to have a frank personal conversation without the baggage of lawsuit nastiness. My mediation skills have also proved useful in tough negotiations for achieving deals that can thrive.You can find authentic solutions to dispute—whether you are in danger of a lawsuit or already up to your eyeballs in one. Even in the darkest pain, you can:► Easily solve aggravating conflicts► Find profit opportunities—frequently in surprising places► Generate agreements that stick, so parties walk their talk► Improve relationships to encourage repeat business► Increase collaboration, with more open process► Establish milestones to actualize visionContrary to popular myths, real solutions are not about giving up something to get something, or splitting the difference, or giving in, or sacrificing what’s truly important. Genuine solutions often surprise and reward you because they come from:► Focusing on solutions instead of problems, and on issues rather than personalities► Generating new information to expand possibilities that make for better decisions► Concentrating on the big picture – on dollars, not pennies► Clearing obstacles so that you can achieve what you really need► Putting you in control – instead of merely reactingIn fact, the best solutions for you happen when you don’t give-away control of the situation and the outcome. You and the other party possess the greatest wisdom about the issues in a dispute, and are the best sources for solutions. Even many consultants agree solutions generated by principals are often implemented more successfully.The results will be seen on your company’s top and bottom lines. -

Experience shows skills employees need to thrive at work—like collaboration, empathy, and decision-making—are best retained when they’re put into action. Bravely connects people with professional coaching for the practical application of critical skills they need to produce their best work. ► Supporting diverse talent in meaningful ways with DEI training and coaching through difficult situations. Bravely helps companies by providing underrepresented employees access to confidential coaching.

Executive Director/Co-Founder, National Nonprofit Helping Seniors Make Informed Healthcare DecisionsCoalition To Advance Prescription Drug Education [Carxe] Apr 2005 - Jan 2007San Francisco Bay AreaThe Coalition to Advance Prescription Drug Education [CARxE] was a national not-for-profit helping seniors, families and caregivers make more informed healthcare decisions, particularly for the roll-out of Medicare Part-D. I co-founded the organization, wrote the business plan and raised financing.CARxE conducted studies demonstrating high pricing variations among Medicare drug plans and encouraged seniors to use free web-based tools to identify the lowest cost plan for their drug regimen. The study's findings were released by the National Association of Health Underwriters [NAHU]. The study found that by using online comparison tools, seniors could choose a plan that costs one-third or less than the highest-priced plan. The study also tracked a bundle of seniors' 19 "Most Prescribed" drugs across 24 regions, which provides an approximate index of the broader market variation. For example, study data showed that for the Most Prescribed bundle, there was a 367% difference, or $12,522, in the annual pricing of the highest and lowest-priced plans.CARxE enrolled seniors nationally, securing and training more than 1K volunteers online. The CARxE Gateway was made available with permission from the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services [CMS]— which awarded CARxE one of only three U.S. Medicare contracts to directly register seniors online in Part-D Drug Plans. The work was made possible by $1M+ in donations from industry partners. The price comparison and Gateway technology for CARxE were licensed from DestinationRx, Inc., a company that licenses the same technology to CMS for its Plan Finder tool.As a part of its outreach, CARxE initiated and managed community-based programs, including interfaith outreach across the U.S. led by the United Methodist Association, as well as a multi-denominational community outreach in Houston. In addition, CARxE established partnership programs with the California Medical Association and the California Hospital Association.

My experience includes the following:As a talent agent in Los Angeles and New York, I represented writers/authors, directors, composers, and actors in motion pictures, television, theatre, and publishing – often coaching them through blocks to find inventive solutions and meet deadlines.
