The private room.Ninety days.Your whole life, redesigned from the ground up.

Ground Up is the private, one-to-one engagement people come to when reading the book, doing the membership, sitting in Overhaul — none of it is enough anymore. Ninety days with Keith. Everything on the table. A version of you that is actually yours by the end.

Who Ground Up is for

People who have already tried the polite versions of change.

Ground Up is not for people starting out on identity work. It is for people who have been at this for a while — who have read the books, done the therapy, been in the mastermind, taken the certification — and are quietly aware that the version of them driving their life is the same version that has been driving it for a decade. And they are done with that.

Right room for you if
  • You are running a company, a practice, a team, or a body of work that other people depend on.
  • The gap between who you are performing as in public and who you are running as in private is bigger than you want it to be.
  • You have made a lot of change on the outside — money, title, relationships — and the inside has not moved with it.
  • You want ninety days of concentrated, private work, not another course to add to the pile.
  • You are ready to be told the truth about what you are running, by someone whose job is to see it.
Wrong room right now if
  • You have not done any of the earlier work. Ground Up is not an intro.
  • You are in acute crisis and need clinical support. That is a different room, and important.
  • You want a mentor, a business coach, or an accountability buddy. Ground Up is identity work, not tactics.
  • You cannot protect the ninety days. This is not a program you finish "when things quiet down."
The 90-day arc

Three months. Three phases. One rebuild.

Ground Up is designed as one arc in three phases. Each phase has its own weight and its own work. The exact texture of your ninety days is built with you — but the shape is deliberate, and it holds.

  1. 01Days 1 – 30

    Excavate

    A private, unhurried look at the identity that has actually been running your life — not the one you would describe on stage. We map the strengths honestly, name the patterns that have been quietly costing you, and get to the version of you that is underneath the one you are usually being. Weekly private sessions with Keith. Written work between calls. No fixing yet. Just the truth.

  2. 02Days 31 – 60

    Engineer

    Design the version of you that actually gets the outcomes you want — in your work, your relationships, your body, your money, the quiet parts nobody sees. Not aspirational. Specific. Testable. Written down. This phase is where the architecture of the new identity gets built, piece by piece, in the room with Keith.

  3. 03Days 61 – 90

    Embody

    The new identity meets your actual life — the board meeting, the marriage, the health decision, the money conversation, the difficult client, the moment you would normally disappear. We run it, we debrief it, we tune it. By day 90 it is not a project you are working on. It is who you are running as. And it is yours to keep.

What Ground Up actually is

Small container. High resolution. All of Keith.

Weekly private sessions

Twelve deep, private sessions with Keith across the ninety days. Not group calls, not office hours. Full attention, on your actual work, in a room built for it.

Direct voice access between calls

A direct line to Keith between sessions for the moments the work happens in real time — the conversation you are about to have, the decision you are about to make, the interrupt you need to test in the room.

A written identity you built

At the end of the ninety days you have a written architecture of who you are choosing to be — specific enough that you can run it, tune it, and hand a piece of it to a partner or a team without them having to guess.

The whole life on the table

Work, relationships, body, money, the quiet parts. Ground Up does not partition your life into "the professional part we can talk about." Everything gets to be in the room.

An in-person option

For clients who want it, part of Ground Up can be done in person — a two-day intensive in the middle of the arc that often compresses months of work into one long weekend. Talked through on the fit call.

Discretion, permanently

Everything said in the room stays in the room. No case studies without your written invitation, no name-dropping, no soft references. This work needs the room to be safe. It is.

How Ground Up applications work

What to expect after you apply.

  1. 1

    You send the short application below.

    Five questions. Sent straight to Keith. Not shared with anyone.

  2. 2

    Keith reads it personally.

    Usually within a few business days. If it is a fit, you get a note back with a link to book a private fit call.

  3. 3

    You have a fit call.

    Forty-five minutes. Both directions. Ground Up only works when both of you are convinced it is the right room. Nobody is sold to on this call.

  4. 4

    If it is a fit, we begin.

    Terms, timeline, and the first session are set on the fit call. If it is not a fit, Keith will tell you where the better door is.

Start an application

Send the short version.

A few honest sentences beat a polished essay. If Ground Up is the right room for what you are navigating, the fastest way to find out is to send this.

Ninety days from now

You will be someone.
Choose who.

Ninety days pass either way. Ground Up is the option to spend them deliberately, with someone whose only job for the next three months is to see you clearly and help you build who you actually want to be running as.

Bringing this into a team? — Identity at Scale, for companies.

Ground Up is the deepest work you can do on your own identity. When leaders finish it, the next question is often the same: "How do we bring this into the team I lead?" That is Identity at Scale — the same work, engineered for organizations.
