Jon Hord Life & Leadership Coach - Headshot

Meet Jon Hord, your Success Coach

I don’t have a job, I have a purpose. My purpose is to share love with the world, and coaching is my medium.

I was previously unfamiliar with the concept of coaching and its transformative impact. However, I took a leap of faith, leaving my role as Vice President at an industry-leading company to become a full-time coach. 

My journey to success didn’t start with a clear path—it was forged from struggles, lessons, and a deep desire for authentic growth. I spent years striving for external validation, only to realize that real success comes from within. This journey has shaped my approach as a success strategist, empowering high-achieving professionals to break free from limiting beliefs, stress, and uncertainty.

It’s not magic. It’s intentional. It’s amazing. 

Redefining Success: Why Values-Driven Living Matters

The next evolution of success isn’t just about hitting goals—it’s about living with intention, authenticity, and alignment with your values. High achievers who truly thrive don’t settle for a life that looks successful on the outside; they seek a deeper sense of fulfillment, clarity, and purpose.

At Past. Present. Possible, we believe that real success comes from within. It’s not about working harder or chasing the next big milestone; it’s about discovering what truly matters to you and aligning your life with those core values. This shift doesn’t just elevate your own experience; it creates a ripple effect, enriching your relationships, your sense of self, and your overall quality of life.

Why does this matter? Because a life driven by purpose and intention is not only more fulfilling, but it’s also more sustainable. By embracing this journey, you’re not just redefining what success looks like—you’re creating a life that feels deeply aligned with who you are and what you desire.

Real People. Real Results.

Hear from those who have transformed their lives through conscious success strategies. Each story reflects a journey of growth, clarity, and authentic fulfillment.

“I’ve worked with Jon for 12 weeks for weekly coaching. As a leader of people, I needed to find someone who could help me not just be the best version of myself, but also help me to bring out the best in others. Jon has been incredible to work with. He helped me discover specific ways to reduce my stress and anxiety levels, while improving my organizational skill, and time management. Working with Jon I have discovered more time in my days and am working much more efficiently, with less stress. Hearing myself even say that, sounds crazy. But, the last 12 weeks working with Jon I have achieved that in a sustainable way. Because he has helped me to elevate, the entire organization is elevating around me. Jon’s direct coaching was on point for me. He challenged me with tough questions. I learned a lot about myself over the last 12 weeks. Jon coached me specifically around executive leadership, health and productivity. Without question, Jon is a game changer for me.”

“I found my purpose. 

Jon was able to coach me in a way that nobody else has been able to do before. He helped me to discover the most important revelation in my life. He is an amazing coach. So far the best I’ve met. 

So many things have changed in my life since I started working with Jon. He was able to help me see things from a different perspective. I found new ways to meet my goals. My quality of life has improved considerably. My diet is different, my activity level is a lot better, I feel more confident, my circadian rhythm is better and best of all: I’ve changed my profession. I am living a healthier life and I am happier in general. 

I would recommend Jon to anyone that asked me. Of all the coaches I’ve worked with over the years, Jon is the only one who has been able to guide me and support me to believe in myself.”

-Chris B.

“I think anyone from any walk of life would benefit from working with Jon. He is not just a well-rounded professional, but also a well-rounded human being. Jon, like everyone, has experienced life. Life that happens to us all; whether it's having a family, making the decision to move for a job, finding ways to stretch a dollar or even enjoying hobbies and making sure to get the most out of each and every day. 

He saw the potential in me and always found a way to make sure that I also saw that same potential. I knew that after a conversation with Jon, no matter the topic, I would always walk away with positivity and direction.

I would simply say that it's worth starting the conversation and don't overthink it.”

-Amy C.

“I would recommend Jon to anyone that is looking to make a difference for themselves.

Jon is a great listener. He takes the time to understand his clients and has the heart to help them move forward with their goals.

I believe we all need a coach to help "see" the bigger picture when we are too close to a situation. 

From our first call, I felt comfortable. I felt heard. Jon was patient and asked amazing thought provoking questions. Jon's calmness was especially helpful. I truly felt our time together was focused on my concerns and he helped me move forward every time we connected.”
