Welcome!
​​(Was I your Uber or Lyft driver?..... waduuup!)
​
So! 10 second background on myself -
My name's Zachary Kalinowski. I'm 33 years old. I was born and raised near Albany, NY, and I'm super passionate about helping people live their best lives! I'm a writer, speaker, philosopher, coach, and retreat founder.​​
​
If I talked your ear off about the retreats/sanctuaries I want to create and you want to know more about them specifically - click here! Or, if this is the first time you're hearing about them, click the link and check them out! They are what I'm most excited to do with my life!!​
​
If you'd like a positive, open minded, encouraging, strategic person to talk to about the goals you have or hardships you want to overcome, I offer free coaching sessions! You have big goals but have hit a road block, or people around you are discouraging? I'm your guy! Read more about what I offer on my life coaching page.
​
This website is a place for me to express myself while trying to help people. The main themes I write about are self improvement, philosophy, and spiritual exploration. I did my best to organize them by category at the top of this page (menu button if you're viewing on a phone).
​​
Watching videos can be a lot more fun, so my goal is to put a video version of each article at beginning of each article. This will happen slowly, over time, beginning around December 2025. ​
​
I'll also be adding a list of books, movies, and music I enjoy/recommend.
​
I've hidden some "easter-eggs" around the site.
My most popular posts are at the bottom of this page (unless you're viewing on mobile... for some reason I can't get them to display on mobile, so just use the menu at the top) ~
Look around a little! Have fun!
