Beneath the noise of stress and expectation, there’s a quieter voice.
The one that already knows who you are and what matters.
When you slow down and listen, choices become lighter, relationships deeper, and work more alive.
Coaching is simply a space to notice, to practice presence, and to return home to yourself.
How it Works
1
We start with a free curiosity call
a chance to get to know each other, explore what’s on your mind, and see if coaching feels like the right fit.
2
You set the focus
together we’ll clarify what matters most to you, whether that’s reducing stress, making a big decision, or creating new possibilities.
3
I hold the space
you’ll have a safe, judgment-free place to reflect, be honest, and explore what’s really going on.
4
We dig deeper
through questions and reflection, we’ll uncover limiting patterns, highlight your strengths, and create fresh perspectives.
5
Clarity leads to action
you’ll leave with clear intentions and practical next steps that feel aligned and doable.
6
Support beyond the session
I’ll help you design systems and structures so your growth is sustainable, not just a one-time boost.
Hi, I’m Dom!
I’ve learned that when I show up open, present, and curious (without expectations, but with vulnerability and love) I create space for others to do the same. That’s the environment I like to operate from, and it’s the space I invite my clients into. It’s where we explore new possibilities, take responsibility for our circumstances, and face the present moment without getting lost in the past or future.
I’m certified in the International Association of Coaching (IAC) Masteries®, which means my coaching is grounded in presence, curiosity, and deep listening. When we slow down enough to notice what’s really going on, we begin to see new possibilities, make clearer choices, and move forward with more confidence and ease.
My path into coaching started years ago when I was the coordinator of VIATEC’s accelerator program, supporting nearly 100 entrepreneurs in launching their tech startups. I wasn’t coaching then, but I had a front-row seat working alongside experienced coaches and leaders. That exposure sparked my fascination with how people grow, change, and step into their potential, and eventually led me here.
Today, leadership coaching is my main work. But through Cordova Coaching, I offer space for anyone (not just executives or founders) who feels stuck, uncertain, or ready for change. Clients come to me when they’re at a crossroads in life or career, when stress and overthinking have taken over, or when they want to feel more alive and connected in their daily lives.
I come to this work with a caring heart, a love for solving problems, and the mind of a philosophy nerd who can’t help but connect the dots.
I love this quote from Alan Watts: “The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so obvious and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves.”
When I think about the times I feel most alive, I’m usually connecting with other people, sharing our perspectives and appreciating our differences. We’re moving past formality and getting into the whimsical. We feel safe to express our goofy ideas and we cheer each other on, often with laughter.
How about you?


What to Expect
You already have what you need inside you. My job is to help you access it. When we work together, here’s what you can expect:
A place that feels safe and real. No judgment, no agenda, just room to bring whatever’s actually going on for you right now.
Someone really listening. I pay attention to your words and what’s beneath them, so you feel genuinely heard and understood.
Gentle honesty. I’ll reflect back what I notice in ways that help you see patterns, name what’s true, and find new ways of looking at things.
Room to breathe and even laugh. Deep work doesn’t have to be heavy all the time. Sometimes curiosity and lightness open doors just as well as serious reflection.
Change that fits you. You won’t get a cookie-cutter plan. You’ll walk away with insights and steps that actually make sense for your life.
