Q: Who is your ideal client?

Purposeful professionals with 10+ years of experience and a lot to say about what they do. I specialize in helping mid-career pros and executives transitioning to a new employer or starting businesses. Are you preparing to advance or change your career? Let’s talk.

Q: What do you mean by “Purposeful”

Purposeful professionals express their values through their work and find purpose in it. My purpose is to promote better understanding among people, so they can come together for mutual benefit. Doing so, promotes my highest value, peace. Read more details on my About page.

Q: What does it cost?

The cost of working with me is detailed on the pricing page. How long we work together can be determined in an initial, free consultation. In that meeting we will learn your requirements and budget. I generally work with clients week-to-week, so you need not commit to an expensive long-term coaching program up-front.

Q: What are your qualifications?

I recently updated the About page with my list of qualifications, so check those out. I’m an experienced business executive and mindful coach, with a huge creative streak. I retired from two long and successful careers. I have a number of degrees and certifications, 35+ years of experience, and several publications and awards bearing my name.

Q: Why so many “ariw” domains?

You may have noticed from emails and social network profiles that I have several domains including ariw.com, ariw.info and ariw.coach. I also own aridublyu.com, ariw.photo and arimweinstein.com. These came about as my business diversified. I continue to use separate domains for certain administrative functions like scheduling. All of the services I provide are now available here on ariw.com, and most of my other domains redirect here.
