Biography
I am a Certified Hypnotherapist and NLP Practitioner, Registered Corporate Coach (RCC) through the Worldwide Association of Business Coaches (WABC), Chaplain for Rocky River Police Department, member of the Cleveland Clinic PAC Team for Clinical Pastoral Education and Pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, I am dedicated to assisting you in your quest for a transformed life. I believe that you can have, you can achieve and you can be more than you ever imagined. I want to partner with you and help you take charge of your thinking and renew your Mind.
Who (or what) controls your thoughts and feelings?To what extent do you feel in charge of your thinking, your emotions? Would you like to feel more in charge? You can experience a greater sense of satisfaction and peace of mind; of being productive, and creative as you learn to access and activate your inner wisdom? This is what the Victorious Living System is all about. Discovering and using your personal power.
What is your purpose, your vision, your mission? What are the barriers that you perceive? The things that get in the way of your Victorious Life?
Why not give yourself a fresh start. Learn how your mind operates, and start operating your mind. Start creating the life of your dreams.
Here's what one of my international clients has to say:
"Charles is a superlative coach. His deep listening skills coupled with an ability to often ask the perfect question at the perfect time makes him an invaluable sounding board, guide and partner in success!" - Craig Kennedy - Executive Coach

Testimonials (5)
Angie Eichelberger, Program Manager | Cleveland Clinic / Office of Diversity & Inclusion
Charles is phenomenal and possesses the knowledge, charisma and versatility to skillfully engage a variety of audiences. During one of our recent Saturday Academy sessions, Charles challenged the students through dialogue and thought-provoking exercises to transform their thinking in order to achieve a victorious life. He spoke of the value and importance of being authentic, thinking positively, and believing in one’s own ability to succeed and live up to their fullest potential. The students have expressed that they wish he could be present with them at every session! He is definitely instrumental in “helping others make their dreams come true”!
Amanda Ritchie , Director of Wellness | Eliza Jennings | The Renaissance / Victorious Living Today!
We were fortunate to have Charles speak yesterday on “Victorious Living”. He was an EXCELLENT speaker and related well to our audience. His lecture was in deed motivational, as well as engaging. If you have a future marketing Luncheon or Dinner, he would be perfect. I would highly recommend his lecture.”
Ted Beltavski, Operations Director | R.E. Warner & Associate, Inc.
"Dynamic, motivational and realistic." That's the best way I can describe the energy Charles brought to our Leadership Warner class. I was thoroughly impressed by his knowledge and look forward to working with him again."
Rev. Gary R. Henderson, Senior Pastor | EastShore United Methodist Church - Living the Love Commandment
You have done a tremendous job in the presentation of "Living the Love Commandment." You were animated and kept the participants engaged and involved. I particularly appreciated the way in which the scriptures were integrated in the presentation. There was candor and humor and enough challenge to allow everyone opportunity to grow. You were also unafraid to be personal and share something of your own faith journey as a way of further connection with the participants. It was refreshing to hear the report by one person as they admitted they had come with real skepticism but were pleasantly surprised and learned quite a bit. There was universal agreement that the day was well spent.
Susan Douglass, Administrative Assistant | Escape the Matrix Workshop
In this presentation, you will learn how closely your experiences & past memories shape our beliefs, values and opinion. It affects how you view yourself & other people that interact in your life. I was empowered with knowledge about how my mind, physical body & spiritual well being are tied together. Having this knowledge allows me to be more in control & aware of what is really true in every aspect of my life. With this awareness, my perception of events, whether current or in the past, are framed totally different. WE create our own reality. We give meaning to events, positive or negative. This was a real eye open to unlock your hidden potential.
