Passionate Coaching and Mentoring Rooted in Kindness and Commitment
Michael White is a self-optimization enthusiast and craftsman who has called North Carolina home since 2020. Raised in Kentucky, Texas, and Alabama, he was supported by two loving parents and two amazing sisters. With a lifelong passion for exercise, movement, and the natural world, Michael’s diverse experiences—ranging from working with sea turtles in Costa Rica to running ultra-marathons and playing ultimate frisbee in the Dominican Republic—reflect his insatiable drive to learn, practice GREATful living, and transform challenges into opportunities. His coaching approach, neuro-informed and habit-based, aims to help clients become the best versions of themselves through effective tools, techniques, and insightful questions.
Michael’s career—from restaurant manager to wilderness therapy guide, white-water rafting guide, and lab tech at a neuro health startup—demonstrates his dedication to empowering individuals. Now serving as a lead tech at a therapeutic boarding school and a life coach at Life Tutors, he uses his extensive experience to mentor young adults, middle and high school students, guiding them toward healthier, more fulfilling lives.
His love for continuous learning through books, podcasts and educational talks complements his belief in self-optimization, rooted in his own experiences overcoming adversity. Michael’s compassionate approach and tireless spirit inspire others to embrace their inner strength and live authentically, making a profound impact on the lives of those he supports.
