 In 2016, Jay founded Performance Excellence & Recovery Consulting (PERC) - a consulting firm dedicated to providing developing athletes the tools necessary to elevate their mental game and perform in the face of stress, pressure, and adversity. 

 Before PERC, Jay spent several years at the United States Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs spending hundreds of sessions working with the world's best athletes to elevate their performance. His work at the USOTC led to a realization that it wasn't just athletes at the highest level that needed high performance psychology training - it was all athletes that stood to benefit. 

 Jay has helped thousands of athletes, performances, corporate executives, and business owners achieve their goals by elevating their ability to mentally perform so they can show up as the best versions of themselves in those moments that matter most to them.

John is an Executive Coach who helps leaders find greater clarity, confidence, and calm.

He is a former Senior Consultant at Accenture for Fortune 100 companies and has more than 25 years of executive and leadership experience across multiple industries.

Who is John Chilkotowsky? 

John started off his career as a consultant working with Fortune 500 corporations all over America. He loved the fact that he was always learning and helping people make a greater impact, but after a few years John wanted to change things up and became a non-profit leader.

One of the major turning points in John’s career as a coach was after he had his first panic attack. A friend connected John with an executive coach who helped him understand that he was caught in a lot of older patterns mindset-wise. John had been disregarding self-care so he could do more at work, wasn’t handling stress well, and ignoring signals that his relationships were unhealthy. It was clear he couldn’t work his way out of his dilemma, and instead needed to take a deep dive into who he was. Within a few short weeks, he got so much from his coach that he decided he wanted to help other people in the same way.
