Welcome to AS Coaching Breakthroughs
Coaching that trusts your wisdom and creates space for real clarity
Working Together
Engagements are tailored to individual leaders or organizational contexts, including nonprofit and mission-driven organizations.
My Approach
My approach is thoughtful, spacious, and grounded in trust. I listen carefully, ask questions that invite reflection, and offer perspective when it serves the client’s clarity. Sessions are not about advice or quick fixes. They are about creating the conditions for insight and forward movement.
Who I Work With
Most of my clients are capable, experienced leaders who have done what was expected of them and done it well. On paper, things look good. Internally, something feels unsettled. They may be navigating a transition, questioning a next step, or sensing that an old way of leading no longer fits. They are not looking for answers to be handed to them. They are looking for space to think clearly, name what matters now, and move forward with intention.
Client Outcomes
Through our work together, clients gain clarity about who they are becoming and what truly matters now. Decision-making becomes more confident and aligned, without the constant pull of second-guessing. Many describe a renewed sense of ownership over their leadership path and an ability to move forward with steadiness, focus, and intention.

"His coaching has shifted the way I think of myself as a leader."
I have thoroughly enjoyed Adrion's down-to-earth coaching approach. He is thoughtful and intentional and asks powerful questions. From the very first session, he got right to the root of one of my issues I had been wrestling with, addressing my impostor syndrome. His coaching has changed how I think about myself as a leader. It has helped me own the gifts I bring to my role and be open to the challenges to come, not seeing them as failures but as lessons and opportunities to grow. Many thanks to you, Adrion!

"Adrion has completely broken my perception of business coaches."
Adrion has completely broken my perception of business coaches. I was not a fan due to prior experiences. He listens deeply and asks tough, accurate questions that help me understand why I do what I do, and challenge me to change my behavior for the better.
It’s obvious he’s not working from a scripted plan. He’s truly listening to understand and reflecting back in a way that helps me process and grow.

"Accountability is not always fun; it’s deeply fulfilling."
Let me tell it, I thrive in fast-paced environments, creating solutions for others. Through coaching, I realized that my struggle is shutting out all of the outside noise and creating and executing systems to work through my own challenges. When I engaged Adrion, my expectation was that we would use the time to focus on some of the more complex situations I was tackling in my work with others within my organization. What I realized was that there were fundamental challenges I was avoiding on my own team... and the longer I avoided them, the more detrimental they became to my productivity on the job and my peace away from it.
Adrion's approach was warm and professional. Accountability is not always fun; it's deeply fulfilling. If you are willing to commit to introspection, exploration, and the work that change requires, Adrion is an excellent coach to join you on your journey.
