About Patrice

Bridging the Gap One Decision at a Time.

I didn’t set out to build a decision-making framework. In 2005, I was just trying to make better choices. What I discovered was that when I kept my future self in mind, I started recognizing moments to make a great decision.

Twenty years later, that discovery has a name. I’ve spent two decades refining it, living it, and now sharing it — because I believe ordinary people are capable of extraordinary lives. Not someday. Starting today.
