Get started
Tell me a little about what's on your mind and we'll set up a first conversation. No cost, no commitment, and I read every message myself.
Request a first conversation
This opens your email app with the message filled in, so you can see exactly what you're sending before it goes.
Rather write it yourself? Email mark@markhope.com directly.
What happens next
I'll reply to set up a time — usually within a couple of days. The first conversation runs about 30 minutes, by phone or video, whichever you picked.
You don't need to prepare anything. Showing up with a messy version of the problem is completely normal and often more useful than a tidy one.
Before you write in
- Coaching here is free and stays free. There's nothing to buy at any point.
- It's a conversation, not a program — no curriculum, no worksheets.
- You can stop at any time without explaining why.
Coaching is not therapy or crisis care. It isn't counseling, diagnosis, or treatment, and it isn't legal, medical, or financial advice. If you're in crisis right now, please contact emergency services or a crisis line rather than waiting on an email reply — in the US you can call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, any time.
