Coaching for Financial Market Participants

The mission is to ignite a transformative dialogue that propels you to grow beyond your existing limits and mindset. We provide a robust array of tools designed to empower you to overcome the enduring challenges of leadership, trading, and spiritual path work.

We leverage our experience as a futures traders, meditation teachers, and performance coaches to introduce market participants to neurological and psychological interventions that will uplevel their trading practice.

A key challenge for those working in the complex world of financial markets is to enhance their ability to consciously tolerate complexity while concurrently making impactful decisions based on choice, instead of compulsion.

1:1 Coaching for Traders

Coaching sessions invite you to ponder if the strategies and behaviors that fueled your current success could potentially hinder your future growth. Part of the work is to identify and discipline patterns of self-sabotage and replace neurotic habits with a commitment to working with what is actually arising in immediate experience.

If our behaviors stem from a place of fantasy, our basic sanity is impeded, and we fall prey to primitive strategies such as over-trading, fear-driven indecisiveness, and taking trades that offer no clear setup or advantage.

Together, we'll design a system to address the recurring trading challenges that often overwhelm and discourage traders. By tapping into self-knowledge, neuroscience, and access to your gut intuition, I'll assist you in sharpening and applying your unique market edge. Part of the work is to identify and discipline patterns of self-sabotage and replace neurotic habits with a commitment to what is actually arising in immediate experience.

The ability to swiftly respond to market fluctuations is crucial. Mental and emotional pliability are vital to maintaining a robust P/L and the emotional and mental capital to keep your seat at the table.

Peter’s focus is to provide instruction and support for practitioners who are balancing the dizzying array of work and family commitments that modern life demands.


Peter is a futures trader and devotee of the trading philosophies espoused by Brian Shannon, Wall St Jesus, and Sang Lucci.

Over the past 5 years of trading markets, I began to see an opportunity to apply Buddhist meditation and the insights of contemporary neurology to structure a discipline of emotional regulation that supports resilience and connection to inner resource.

Peter has collaborated with Chris Cady to construct a step-by-step trading discipline that synthesizes mindfulness practice, breath work, and neurological interventions to improve the capacity to emotionally regulate ourselves when confronted with overwhelming intensity.
