Reclaiming their roles as the leaders in their homes and communities


At The Aligned Warrior, we believe every man has the potential to unlock a more meaningful and purpose-driven life as the leaders in our homes and workplaces. Our coaching programs are designed to guide you through personal transformation, to becoming the man you should be for your family, providing for them and protecting them against uncertain times. Preparing isn’t silly. Preparing isn’t a fad. It’s your job as a man to make sure your family has the best chance to not only survive, but also thrive in the event of a man-made or natural disaster.
If you are ready to take the first step in the recovery process after burning the candle at both ends and winding up in a place you never thought possible, click the “Get Started” button and schedule a discovery call to see if the Aligned Warrior Protocol is right for you.
The Aligned Warrior Protocol is a six-month program where you will start off in weekly sessions conducted online where we will start with where you are today and how you got here, followed by the building of your personal protection strategy. We use the avalogy of the military F.O.B. (forward operating base) and give you the tools needed to ensure you don’t end up back where you are. We identify the things in your life that don’t belong, or the things that don’t help you to be the man that you need to be. We’ll be journaling your progress and we’ll use some good books that you can take things from as you build your new life. Our sessions will follow the standard that “iron sharpens iron” and we are here to sharpen each other. You are NOT alone in this situation, or the process of rebuilding.
The Aligned Warrior Protocol iis available in a customized in-person deliverable for companies desiring to have their management or executive leadership teams grow into a powerful management force that lead by example, and that motivate their teams to want to show up every days and perform at top levels…not just go through the motions. Offerings are currently available in the US for in-person training, though the same material can be covered through remote training. In-person courses are all-day for two to three days (depending on the goals of the company) and remote sessions are divided up over one week in three hours sections.
As part of the Aligned Warrior Protocol and Aligned Warrior Defense Protocol you will receive access to hundreds of hours of training sessions for the program you are enrolled in.
David grew up in Central Illinois, and when he wasn’t outside doing what boys do, he spent a lot of his time on the lakes and rivers of the midwest, or on the waters of the Gulf of America. After a time in the US Navy, he spent two decades as a Sales Engineering leader in the technology sector working for some of the most influential technology companies around the world carrying a quota of over forty-million dollars successfully. David retired from the technology field and transitioned into his lifelong passion of yachting, and worked full time in the maritime industry as a US Coast Guard Licensed captain along side his wife of thirty years, Chef Arlene Meyer. He holds a Bachelor of Science with honors from Norfolk State University, and a Master of Business Administration with a Leadership emphasis with honors from Grand Canyon University.
David’s philosophy is that most of the problems men face in their lives comes from a lack of leadership on their behalf. As men, as business leaders, military leaders, family leaders, it all comes down to the disciplines and principles of leadership being absent, and the rigors of life running them over without warning because they were not properly protected. Without the proper boundaries and core values even the strongest men will burn out and eventually end up in a situation they had never planned for. That was certainly the case in his own life. But it was that series of failures that set David on a journey into self-discovery and reflection on the principles that he used to hold firm, and it was the renewing of those principles and disciplines that have allowed him to emerge today as a stronger man, leader, husband and father.
