    About Chuck:


    Chuck Downs is the founder of Downs Consulting, creator of the course Epic Life Secrets, and a Peak Performance Coach for successful entrepreneurs and top financial advisors.  


    For the first 25 years of his career, Chuck worked in financial services as a Certified Financial Planner™. Twelve years into that career he opened an office in downtown Miami for a Fortune 150 company. Three years later his firm was Top 5 for new advisor production and retention out of over 300 offices nationally. 


    Although he liked financial planning, he loves helping people find their purpose and fulfill their potential. In 2017 he retired from financial services to live his dream of helping people create an Epic Life.  


    Over the past 30 years, Chuck’s invested over 25,000 hours studying from many of the best personal development teachers on the planet. He’s learned from leading researchers in neuroscience, epigenetics, psychoneuroimmunology, yogis, monks, and even indigenous shamans.  


    These insights have given him the experiences required to guide people to results they never thought could be achieved.  

    But his life hasn’t always been successful. Along his journey, he’s had failures, setbacks, breakups, and breakdowns. He knows what it’s like to feel the stress of seemingly insurmountable challenges then to realize the only way out is up to you.  


    Chuck feels blessed and honored to share his blueprint for helping people avoid the big mistake of playing life too small.

  • Just Get Finished - One Mic with Brian Ondrako

    On this week's One Mic I wanted to speak a bit about finishing projects and completely checkpoints to see things progress or being okay with moving on if it's not what you envisioned. Either is okay but we have to allow ourselves the opportunity to go in each direction.


    I hope you all enjoy this episode and it helps you to give yourself permission on your journey.

  • Why Can't It Be You? - One Mic with Brian Ondrako

    On this week's One Mic I decided to rift a bit about a question I have written on my bathroom mirror and a deeper exploration around gaining confidence through asking ourselves some questions to guide our direction.
