It’s time to jump into the river of your life.

No more standing on the shore.

This I believe:

Profound growth and transformation are absolutely possible, and they do not occur in the absence of consistent, committed & conscious work.

I will support you in gently holding that big dream of yours while you show up to the daily work that can make it a reality.

No nonsense. No frills. Let’s turn your dreams into projects.


In a holistically crafted container of abiding presence, you will:

  • Clarify your deepest sense of purpose

  • Cultivate the awareness to see the relationship between your perceptions and reactions

  • Dedicate to this life through fearless participation and embodied practice

  • Build community, the indispensable fabric that holds it all together

Testimonials

  • Davis Cowles is an exceptional master coach and facilitator. In one of the most difficult and confusing moments of my life, Davis lovingly guided me into clarity and stability, allowing me to reconnect with my inherent power and gifts. Davis is able to remain centered in the midst of a whirlwind of experience, and capture the necessary threads of relevant information without denying or banishing any aspect of what I bring to each session. He is an exceptional avid listener, deep lover, and wild man full of embodied aliveness. More than any healing or transformation, which he definitely can deliver, working with Davis is a refreshing blast of fun, creativity, and wide ranging possibility. This man has exceptional range, and that is a rare quality. If you are looking for true support and authentic guidance in your individual journey, you will be in excellent hands with Davis.

  • “Davis accomplishes the intricate feat of helping others uncover their own wisdom and unique self-progression tools by the way he listens and asks questions. He begins your coaching partnership from a place of genuine curiosity and an unfaltering belief in you. In just a number of months, Davis has helped me gain perspective that will serve me for the rest of my life.”

    Hunter M.

  • I can confidently recommend Davis as a life coach based on our time together (I opted to commit to 3 months of weekly sessions). Davis is incredibly dedicated, kind, enthusiastic, intelligent, and helpful during coaching engagements. With gentle but honest feedback, Davis has given me the space to confront myself as I am, create awareness within myself, and take meaningful actions towards my goals and dreams. I have made demonstrable improvements with my mental health, communication in relationships, and have experimented with habits and routines that will aid me in my journey ahead. As a parting thought, if you are on the fence about exploring coaching, don't feel encumbered about it or wait until the "time is right". Life is finite and worth living, even if you are struggling. You got this!

  • "Davis's coaching welcomes inner growth and personal exploration. I'm grateful for the sessions we've had together and feel that it has helped me develop a foundational toolkit for working on mindfulness, self-understanding, and taking on life's greatest challenges. Can't put a "dollar sign" on the joy and growth I've felt from my coaching journey with Davis!"

    Max R

  • "Professional and amicable, Davis sets the bar with every session. Whereas before I would reach into my toolbox for a wrench, I now have access to powertools. I highly recommend Moon and Back coaching for those who are on the path and ready for a challenge."

    Gabe S.

  • "I have profound respect and admiration for Davis and his approach to living and leading. He has the depth and presence you might expect to find in a wise old man, coupled with the vibrance and enthusiasm of someone who knows how to live an authentic and meaningful life. As a life coach, he takes that combination of traits and skillfully guides others through their struggles and toward their goals. I'm exceedingly grateful for all that he has taught me. I highly recommend you connect with him if you are curious about what he might be able to offer you."

    Erik W.

  • Davis is a wonderfully supportive and receptive Life Coach. He listens with an open mind and helps bring to light the things that I sometimes can't quite put a finger on. Instead of offering mere advice, Davis often asks the sometimes difficult questions that allow one to go deeper into themselves--to better understand oneself and to get to the roots of one's goals: the whats/whys/hows. I see his passion and gratitude in his work which is what I think makes him a wonderful coach. I would recommend you meet with Davis if you are looking to better understand yourself, work through some goals, and have an overall clearer picture of what you might want for yourself in life (which are all huge tasks!). Sometimes we all need a hand, and I'm happy to have taken Davis's.

    Scout S.

  • "Davis has wholly devoted himself to coaching and it shows as he brings out the best in others with supportive, instructive, responsible and inspiring coaching."

FAQs

What is coaching?

Coaching is the inquiry-based process by which you build the life you deeply yearn to to live, with the support of a dedicated professional.

What is the duration of a session? How often will we meet?

Sessions are 60 min. We will meet 1x/week via video/audio call, or in-person if possible.

Length of engagement

I request a minimum commitment of 3 months. After that, you choose if you would like to continue. I have worked with some clients for years at a time, and am most interested in working with clients who are eager to commit to consistent work over longer periods of time. In my experience, that’s where the magic lives.

What is the cost?

I do not list the cost to work with me on my website, because I do not want it to prevent someone from reaching out. If you are curious about working together, please schedule a free Discovery Session. If it is a “Hell Yes” for both of us, we will find a way to work together.
