Surfing Wild Waves into Coaching In this raw and open conversation, with infectious enthusiasm Troy shares his journey from being a founder member of a super-successful clothing company, through some of life’s shit-storms, and into his first year in coaching. It’s been a wild ride, one that has had him listen to his heart and change completely how he shows up in the world. If you’re a relatively new coach, you’re transitioning or have transitioned from a previous career, or are passionate about living a coaching life, this one is for you. Here’s a little more about Troy Hailing from California Troy was introduced to the ocean and surfing at a very young age. In 1991 he was on his way to becoming a professional surfer when he was faced with a decision of surfing for a living or taking a leap of faith at a startup called Volcom. He chose the latter and ended up with the company for 20 years where he worked his way up to Global EVP of Marketing. In 2010 he left the company and shortly thereafter he was divorced. In 2016 he started a men’s yoga clothing line called Kozm. At the beginning of 2018, he was feeling unfulfilled with running his company and made the tough decision to step away. Simultaneously he experienced a painful breakup, was confronted with mid-life and was feeling depleted and lost. Soon thereafter he fell into depression which battered his immune system leaving him vulnerable for a health crisis. He then became ill and was diagnosed with mold poisoning from the house he was living in. Finally realizing the innate healing power within he soon learned how to become his own doctor and created the optimum environment (inside and out) to heal. This experience ended up being a blessing which supercharged him in becoming a life coach where he helps people to remember the true essence of who they are and what they're capable of creating and achieving.
