Our name, Mountain Air Coaching, is inspired by the power and perspective offered by mountain wildernesses. Growing up in the foothills of the Alberta Rockies, our founder Evan has spent countless hours exploring and relaxing in the mountains.

He has always marveled at their capacity to make him feel contrasts: empowered yet humbled; calmed yet energized; creative yet grounded; finite yet alive. Regardless of the challenge or complexity he faces, the mountains are always a place he knows he can go to simplify, be present, and make sense of himself in the world. In supporting the development of healthy leadership, teams, and systems, he wants to offer the same crisp, fresh, and clear perspectives that he finds in the mountains.

Around the world, mountains are held as sacred. They are places people go to reconnect with the natural world and reconcile the inner world of mind, body, spirit, and emotions. Even as humans inhabit and alter more of the planet, mountains remain wild places. They are away from the pace, distractions, and pollution of our high-paced modern lives.

Mountains rise above the sights, smells, and sounds of the everyday – colours seem sharper, smells fresher, and sounds more melodic. Taking them in from their base, mountains help us reconnect to our finitude and relative insignificance in their presence, while standing atop them gives us a sense of accomplishment at the journey up while offering perspective on the world visible below. Their air feels crisp and is scented with aromas that relax our physiology and psychology, and allow us to see, feel, and think more clearly. Removed from the busyness of society, the mountains offer a quiet space to hear the sounds of nature and listen to our internal thoughts and feelings more coherently.

Ultimately, mountains offer us a space to find peace, develop clarity, and inspire action. Mountain Air Coaching aims to replicate the experience of retreating to the mountains in all the services we offer. We cocreate spaces for you and your organization to retreat from the distractions and busyness of your day-to-day lives and find clarity and perspective in the face of your challenges. We will help increase your capacity to be present to your internal and external environment so that you can see where you stand and what path to traverse. We will offer you a clear picture of where you, your team, and your organization are, and a calm approach to find stability in the midst of transformation. And from this space of calm clarity, we will help you develop your capacity to enact your vision for yourself, your organization, and the world. How could you and your organization benefit from the transformative power and calm serenity that mountain air offers?
