You’re building a business so that you don’t have to go back to work.

But you don't have an endless runway

Starting a new business can be both exhilarating and terrifying—if things go right, you get to do what you love for a living, and be the architect of your own life.

But if you're not reaching escape velocity as fast as you'd hoped, this can drive you to work harder than necessary, which can cloud your thinking and keep you from seeing your best opportunities.

Success can be easier than you think…

You need a new approach

You need a new approach

You need a new approach

The way you operated in your career won’t lead to the success you seek as a business owner.

In our careers, we learned that success required hard work—so as business owners we assume we need to put in long hours.

But the most successful people—in any arena—are those who master the art of accomplishing more with less effort.

Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy
Lighten up while you still can, don't even try to understand
Just find a place to make your stand
And take it easy


—The Eagles

Take it easy, take it easy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy

Throughout history, the greatest visionaries were fueled by self-actualization, inspiration, and love.

What is Kumara?

What is Kumara?

What is Kumara?

Kumara is a daily practice for coming up with the best ideas to grow your business with the least effort.

"But isn't that cheating?"

No, business is not meant to be hard.

Many of us had our minds poisoned in our careers by the idea that business is inherently about strain, struggle, and stress.

But giving your gifts should be your deepest spiritual practice, and an opportunity for authentic self-expression.

If you're building a business that is an expression of deeper aspects of yourself, Kumara will help you bridge the gap between your deepest purpose and your daily to-do list.

Over 5-weeks, you'll master the Kumara process with a group of other soulful innovators and builders, and make meaningful progress towards your goals.

The Kumara Process

Step 1: Remember

“Remember who you are.”

Entrepreneuership is about the remembrance that we're all creators of our own reality put here to shape the world we share.

Kumara isn't about becoming successful. It's about remembering that you already are.

Step 2: Align

“Align with your desired outcome.”

Too many leaders approach business with the desire to get as much as possible as quickly as possible.

Kumara is about slowing down to clarify what deeper parts of ourselves want, then seeing business as a vehicle for contribution.

Step 3: Feel

“Feel The Lake.”

The deepest and most meaningful work of the entrepreneurial journey is the journey through our emotions.

To feel is to connect with our energy. We then gain the ability to Communicate (Kum) using our Aura (ara). This is what Kumara is all about.

Step 4: Act

“Act in alignment with The River.”

We often discount the easiest opportunities for growing our business because we think business has to be harder than it is.

The River is the flow state you enter to take effortless action. It will also show you opportunities you didn't see before.

Step 5: Enjoy

“Enjoy yourself.”

You're building a business—among other things—so that you can enjoy your life more. Enjoyment is the key to growth.

The final step of Kumara is about identifying the path to deeper enjoyment then walking it.

Entreprenuership has the potential to be the most healing journey of your life.

Hi, I'm Mystic 👋

Over 25 years, I gave my gifts in my career as a designer. I helped massive companies reach new audiences, and I developed a brand that got acquired by a tech giant.

And I got burned.

Repeatedly by people who didn't truly value the depth of what I brought.

So I left that version of myself behind.

Entreprenuership is about rewriting your story

Now it's your turn to call the shots.

You don't have to defer to anyone else's judgement.

When creating a company, you don't have to play by anyone else's rules.

Kumara is about helping you discover the way that only you can do it.

Your value isn't in your skills

If you're in a technical field, AI has been making this abundantly clear.

Your value is you.

Your story.

Your personality (even if you don't think you have one).

And your unique perspective.

If you think you're in the business of selling products or services, you're wrong.

The most valuable thing you have to offer is your ideas—based on your unique view of the world.

If you have a memorable brand, you don’t need to invest in advertising.

I came up with the Midlife Mystic last year after leaving my design career and not knowing what to do next—but knowing I didn't want to go back to selling myself out to another corporate employer.

Actually, he came to me.

Social Media became a vehicle for understanding who The Mystic is, and he became a vehicle for helping me reinvent myself.

I started writing short-form and long-form online content about personal transformation in midlife, and my writings reached millions, showing me that I was far from alone in my hunger for transformation and deeper meaning.

The Mystic has led me to meet friends, collaborators, business-partners and clients around the world.

He's helped me see opportunities to add value to the lives of others.

And now he's excited to teach you Kumara.

I promise Kumara will help you meet yourself at a deeper level, then create a business and a brand that are expressions of your authentic self.
