I felt lost about why I wasn't happy with my job or enjoying my hobbies the way I used to. After receiving several coach recommendations, I interviewed each one and chose Todd because he balanced life coaching with career coaching, and his approachable nature made him easy to talk with.
I started working with Todd without a clear expectation or goal in mind. Through our work together, I gained four valuable outcomes: 1. A solid understanding of my strengths, 2. A set of principles and values for everyday decision-making, 3. A purpose statement that guides how I live and act, 4. A clear plan for improving my work situation and advancing my career.
If you work with Todd, be prepared! He'll challenge you to think deeply, and it requires dedication. His methodology and our discussions were consistently engaging and productive. Through this process, Todd became not just a coach but a friend, and I highly recommend him to anyone facing similar challenges.

Todd was an exceptional coach. When I first approached him, I had a few specific goals: to clarify and articulate my personal values and mission, and to structure them in a way that would enhance my focus and authenticity during my job search. Todd helped me map out concrete changes that significantly improved various aspects of my personal and professional life. His guidance also boosted my confidence in both areas. I highly recommend Todd to anyone looking to make meaningful progress in their goals. More...

A coaching experience will be different for everyone. The following is my experience and I am happy to share it so you can see how empowering the experience working with Todd has been. In the first session, I described myself as "stuck" and unable to identify how to make life and professional changes. I was very unhappy. By the final couple of sessions, I had discovered my new path, and I had a plan to implement it. This has given me energy and my confidence back. I feel more complete. Highlights from the sessions are, I have let go of negative legacy, I now know I have sufficient mental and physical resilience for most situations, I have a lot of support around me that I had not previously acknowledged. Finally, and very importantly, change for me comes through networking and action, so I will use my time efficiently to take strategic steps towards my goals. On a personal note, Todd is also a terrific person. I so much enjoyed and looked forward to our sessions each week. Thank you, Todd. More...

Todd has been very helpful in guiding me through my job change by providing me with guidance and tools, as well as challenging the way I currently approach the subject. I am grateful to have a coach who holds me accountable and positively reframes the way I think. Thank you, Todd! More...

Realizing I needed some professional support, I connected with Todd as a coach to help me understand myself and my skills better with the intent to find a career that would be fulfilling and sustaining. I am so happy I did. Todd identified my concerns and goals while structuring a defined path forward. I highly recommend him as a professional coach. More...

We talked about work, I resolved to becoming a civil engineer because of the 6 month coaching I received. Todd was encouraging and we didn't shy away from addressing real issues that were holding me back from reaching my goals. My outlook on life is: most people want to achieve their dreams but aren't willing to do the work, because the real work is facing the truth, not giving up, and intentionally surrounding yourself with mentors and people in your life who will help you reach your goals, and not stopping after thousands of failed attempts. Todd was exactly the mentor that I needed in my life at that time. He encouraged me to get the help I needed because of my adhd disability and coexisting conditions. I highly recommend Todd if you're unsure about which direction to take your career. I'm happy that I signed up for the career coaching program with Todd Gorishek! More...

Working with Todd was wonderful. He is very easy to talk to and clearly cares about his clients. He was instrumental in helping me gain clarity in my career and determine a plan of action to move forward with. I can't recommend him enough.

I’ve been working with Todd for just over a year to date and it’s been a great experience. For me it’s been most beneficial to have him hold myself accountable and on track towards larger goals, while having the ability to discuss day to day challenges as they arise.
On top of this Todd has been flexible, reliable, and available throughout. He incorporates collaborative platforms to enhance time between meetings.
My family and I are very grateful for the support Todd!

Spencer
Todd is amazing. I wasn't sold on this "job coach" idea until I reached out to him. The transformation that I went through this past year was nothing short of incredible. I was stuck in a career with no work-life balance that I wasn't proud of. Todd identified the areas I needed assistance with, kept me on task with weekly homework, and I achieved the best-case scenario with the perfect job offer. He dug really deep to help me make the most out of networking opportunities and worked on my fractured confidence that I needed to overcome my current situation. I've recommended him already to associates seeking the same change and I have no hesitation recommending him here. The greatest investment you'll ever make is in yourself. Call Todd! More...

Todd is all you can wish for in a coach. He is there for you all the way, asks the right questions and knows how to balance push and pull to get you moving and reaching your goals. Having had different coaches in my life, I can say that he goes beyond what you usually can expect from a coach and am very happy to have found him. If you want to make some changes in your life as a man you are at the right place. Todd, I am very greatful for all that you have taught me and helped me with! More...
Dan
Todd is an excellent coach. He helped me define what I wanted in my life and did a great job of holding me accountable. Years later, I get to look back on our initial conversations and see that I've completely changed my career and situation in life the way that I wanted!
I would definitely recommend Todd to anyone that wants help accomplishing important goals or life changes.

Todd was very much the coach I needed when we worked together.
Todd's qualifications largely speak for themselves, but there are a few things that stood out from my experience working with Todd that are worth highlighting, and important (in my opinion) to being a great coach:
- Todd has a real gift for knowing how to balance: listening, questioning, and inspiring. I think this is an especially difficult and challenging skill to build in coaching, and Todd is a master at this
- From Day 1, and well past when we had stopped formally working together (because I accomplished what I had hoped to with his support!), I've really felt like Todd has been in my court. He is remarkably active and went well beyond what I'd expect from a coach to make sure I was healthy and living how I wanted to.
- Todd is simply a wonderful person to know. That was not only an added benefit, but his character made it such that I had trust in him from the get go, and that enabled a more successful coaching relationship.
If you have the opportunity to work with Todd, I couldn't encourage you more to take it!

I have been very fortunate to have worked with Todd Goricek of Empowered Men Coaching for a number of years. He is truly fantastic. Todd is very practical and extremely focused in his work. He has helped me to cut through the clutter in many areas of my life, personally and professionally, and to help me focus on what I need to do next to achieve the goals I want in my life. He has proven to be an excellent ally for me over the years, and I think anyone who works with him would be lucky to have Todd in your corner. Todd is a top quality provider, and if you are looking for a coach, look no further. Once you work with Todd, you will be very happy you did. Keep up the good work, Todd! More...

Todd is truly an exceptional coach.
I've had the good fortune working with a good number of coaches over my lifetime. Todd stands out among the crowd.
One of the powerful approaches Todd has brought to working with me is the depth of listening and emotional analysis to his coaching. Given the insights he brings to his coaching, I find it somewhat surprising that he doesn't have a psychology background - he's that good.
I've read somewhere recently that feelings are the source of one's energy. Todd has helped explore the feelings behind my decisions and motivations in such a way to make a huge difference to the trajectory of my path towards my goals.
Todd has demonstrated exceptional dedication to his craft. Combined with his caring for his clients, he is truly a rare gem among coaches.

I had an incredible experience working with Todd. He helped me look inside myself, taught me how to stand up for myself and what’s right, and left me with a much higher confidence level when finished.
Todd is an incredible listener, amazing question asker, and just a caring nice guy. He will hold your nose to the fire in terms of accountability, and politely remind you and point out things that YOU say about yourself.
We tackled some big items together, and I look forward to our next session. I highly recommend Todd.

What do you love most about your job?
Witnessing men at the moment they understand the true power they have to create meaning and purpose in their every day lives...family, career, relationships.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was fortunate enough to have strong men in my life who encouraged me and challenged me to step into my full potential, walk confidently as the man I am, and create the life I wanted to live.
I want to help men have that same kind of powerful experience in their lives.
Why should our clients choose you?
Men should choose me if they resonate with what I have said in my videos and articles.
Each of us connect with others in unique ways. The most important part of choosing a coach is selecting one you feel comfortable with and feel you can trust.
Comfortable doesn't mean you won't be challenged, sometimes even pissed off, in the process.
It does mean you know the coach holds you in care, won't judge you, and you have his support at all times through the coaching process.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I only provide my services online or remotely because I travel and live abroad.
