Master Yourself
The Untaught Essentials is the fundamental wisdom and practice for living and leading that we were never taught in school.
How do we face life’s challenges and unlock our true potential?
I faced a mortal health crisis as a young adult, and was forced to push myself beyond fear and limitation. This has formed the core of my decades of teaching.
After losing my family home in the Los Angeles Fires of 2025, life is asking me to embody what is vital and vitalizing in a whole new way.
I’m here to help you turn life’s challenges into fuel for your personal and professional evolution. The tools, insights, and strategies I’ve gained from this journey are what I’m excited to share with you.
This is your opportunity to take your leadership and life to the next level.
About Jeremy
I’ve spent over two decades helping leaders transform their results while developing their humanity in
the
face of inevitable change. During that same period, I’ve been driving my own personal evolution while
living
with a (supposedly) terminal illness. Transforming life’s struggles into growth and effective action
pervades my professional and personal path.
As Founder of the Executive Mind Leadership Institute as well as
Associate Professor of Practice at the Peter F. Drucker Graduate School of Management, I have put human
growth strategies into real-world practice years before the popularity of “mindful leadership”.
Confirmation
came from being voted ‘Faculty of the Year’ 8 times by students. Further, 27 people, 13 of them former
students, came forward as organ donors when I needed life saving surgery.
My work helps leaders first
vitalize themselves who then vitalize the environments around them. As they put aliveness at the center
of
their lives, they become sources of transformative energy to their teams, organizations, families and
communities. Vital leaders change the world.
PRACTICE
Upcoming Master Classes
Mastering Reactions,
Transforming Results
April — August 2025
The Nervous System is the fundamental infrastructure we use to take in information, make sense of what’s going on around us, and take action in the world. Building capacity in your nervous system incites fundamental change to how you are in the world.
To fuel greater personal and professional growth, we will focus on managing your emotional reactions, the stories you tell yourself, and even the physical sensations in your body that influence choices, actions and results in all areas of life.
You will learn, practice and refine practical steps to remain calm, present and effective in the midst of chaos, uncertainty and accelerated change. Both you and those around you will stay grounded and focused to achieve what’s most important to you.

ENGAGE
Few of us ever learn how to skillfully manage the forces that exist inside us all. Our parents and schools didn’t teach us. There were no standardized tests for self-mastery either. To fill this gap, I take an approach to the challenge of mastering oneself that leads to positive change and practical action.

- Lead and Live from the Green Zone
- Increase Capacity via the Nervous System
