Hello and Welcome
Hi, I'm Kyle Bonbrake. I'm happy you're here and I look forward to getting to know you!
I'm someone who enjoys exploring ideas, asking questions, and occasionally going down a rabbit hole just to see where it leads. I'm naturally curious about how things work, why we do the things we do, and what we might be missing when we take something for granted.
I tend to spend a fair amount of time thinking about things, sometimes probably more than necessary. But I also believe there's plenty of room for laughter, silliness, and not taking ourselves too seriously. I enjoy a good conversation, time outdoors, getting my hands dirty, and discovering something unexpected along the way.
I'm not particularly interested in pretending to have everything figured out. I'd rather stay curious, challenge my own assumptions, and be willing to change my mind when something gives me a reason to. I find that life gets a lot more interesting when we're open to being surprised.
I suppose I'm a bit of a mix: reflective but playful, analytical but imaginative, comfortable with deep conversations but equally happy laughing at something completely ridiculous.
More than anything, I value authenticity, meaningful connection, and the freedom to keep exploring what it means to be here, together, figuring things out as we go.
Professional Background
I've been coaching in some capacity for 5 years. In that time I've accumulated thousands of hours in session working with clients on a wide variety of issues. I've always loved to find creative solutions to problems. Before becoming a coach I was a manufacturing engineer for many years. Later in my engineering career I became focused on industrial health and safety. This is where I first became very interested in human behavior and how to change it. I wanted to understand why people sometimes did unsafe things in the workplace and how I could influence behavior in positive ways. This opened the door to coaching where I've been focused ever since.
