There's a lot to figure out about being human.
Human in Progress explores what shapes who we are, how we navigate life's challenges, and what it means to live intentionally. Through personal stories, psychology, behavioral science, and coaching, discover a deeper understanding of yourself and what's possible.
The questions
Why do we think, feel, and behave the way we do?
I'm interested in the questions that shape how we live. What actually matters to us? How do we navigate the experiences we never planned for? And how do we turn what we learn about ourselves into the way we actually live?
Human in Progress is where I explore those questions, through personal stories, psychology, behavioral science, and conversations about the experiences that make us human.

What the people are saying
Eric cut through the noise and reflected back a clearer version of my own thinking, which made it easier to set a direction and act.
Rather than handing me answers, he helped me see my strengths more clearly and build the confidence to act on them.
KunjEric took the time to understand me as a person. My story, my background, how I process challenges, where I feel most confident, where I get in my own way.
Even when I couldn't articulate exactly what I needed, Eric knew how to guide me.
StephenBefore we worked together, I was wasting so much time on getting everything perfect before taking action.
I was able to overcome the idea that everything had to be perfect before starting.
MikeEric creates an environment where people feel comfortable being honest, which is where real growth happens.
He moves people from surface-level discussion to something reflective and actionable. Participants leave more self-aware and more willing to speak up.
GradyI knew some of my strengths but wasn't sure how to put them into action.
Eric helped me gain a deep understanding of my unique strengths and how to apply them, not just at work but across every area of my life.
TonyI always thought I had a decent understanding of my strengths, but Eric helped me articulate them. That gave me the vocabulary to express myself confidently.
What really set Eric apart was his openness. He shared personal stories that made the lessons far more relatable.
ManvithaEric helped me see the multifaceted value I bring, and where my blind spots might be hiding.
He dug deep, helped me get introspective, and made space to explore both what I do well and where I might be getting in my own way. It was a meaningful process, and I'm grateful for it.
SharzadEric was a refreshing addition to our class.
The result is our community now has more people who are confident enough to show up as themselves and use the tools they have been given.
