Who we are

We are Carrie and Greg - Leadership & Growth Mentors | Helping you overcome self-doubt & embrace your next chapter. We are partners in life, in work, and in helping people navigate life’s big transitions with clarity and confidence. For over 31 years each, we’ve worked as educators, leaders, and coaches, guiding people toward growth, resilience, and success. We know what it’s like to face change, challenges, career shifts, retirement, relationships, new dreams - and we know it’s easier when you don’t walk through it alone.

Through Project You 2.2, we offer three paths:

  • For Women - Carrie helps women rediscover themselves, build confidence, and embrace new chapters with energy and joy.

  • For Men - Greg coaches men through leadership challenges, personal growth, and life transitions with strength and purpose.

  • For Couples - Together, we guide couples to grow closer, communicate better, and move forward as a united team.

About Carrie

Carrie brings over three decades of classroom teaching and leadership experience, combined with her work as a certified health coach and her own personal transformation. Carrie has been recognized as Teacher of the Year twice - once by colleagues and another time by her student body - highlighting her dedication, creativity, and impact in the classroom. After losing more than 50 pounds and reclaiming her health, she became passionate about helping others find their own breakthroughs. As a mother of three boys and the holder of two master’s degrees, Carrie knows firsthand the challenges of balancing family, career, and personal growth. She has also authored Teach and Parent with Confidence: 22 Tips for a Fulfilling Life of Influencing Kids, further extending her mission to inspire and guide others. Beyond teaching and coaching, Carrie enjoys pilates, pickleball, book club, and walking their dog, Calvin. She treasures being a mom to three amazing boys and spending quality time with her family and friends, finding joy in both family and community. In 2025, she stepped out of her comfort zone and participated in Dancing with the Local Stars, embracing a new challenge with energy and enthusiasm. Today, Carrie blends her background in education, coaching, and life experiences to empower clients to navigate life’s transitions with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

About Greg

Greg brings over three decades of leadership and coaching experience, having served as a principal and superintendent of schools. Greg was honored as Michigan’s Outstanding Principal of the Year in 2012, a recognition of his leadership, vision, and dedication to students and staff. The following year, in 2013, he was selected as a National Distinguished Principal of the Year and celebrated in Washington, D.C., among the nation’s top school leaders. He has a Master’s Degree in Leadership and provides executive leadership coaching for senior leadership teams and physician leaders in a national healthcare system. Greg’s personal journey has shaped his coaching in powerful ways - from overcoming a brain tumor and enduring 26 rounds of radiation, to living with Tourette’s syndrome, to navigating the challenges of stepping down from a public position. Through it all, he has embodied perseverance and resilience. Greg is the author of Lead with Endurance: 26.2 Milestones for Improving Life and Leadership, where he shares lessons drawn from both the marathon course and life’s toughest challenges. Greg continues to navigate life by tapping into the strength of his mind, body, and spirit - and he is passionate about helping others do the same. His passion is helping others build endurance in leadership, relationships, and personal growth. In his free time, he enjoys hunting and running in the great outdoors, where he finds balance and renewal.

Together, our mission is simple: to help you create a life and relationship that feels real, aligned, and deeply fulfilling.
