Marv Curtis is one of the coaches that we found this month and we did a little interview with him. He impressed us with his dedication, expertise, and experience.

He is one of the most experienced coaches that we had the honor of interviewing. His coaching career started all the way back in 1980s’ as a side hustle, but it soon became his main business.

He started coaching to help his oldest son overcome panic attacks and to help his wife overcome depression. Back then, it was hard to find any help for those type of problems in the healthcare industry so he decided to tackle those issues himself and find a way to help his family.

Now, he is a long way from the beginnings of his coaching career and for decades he is successful in helping people overcome Burnout, gain clarity, and establish stronger boundaries. Here is what he said.

Coaching started in the 1980’s as a ‘side hustle’ primarily to help my oldest son with his panic attacks and my wife with depression.

We weren’t able to find the help we needed within our healthcare network at that time, so I began to learn how to help them.

Tragedy and loss among my family members due to cancer and depression.
