Life & Performance Coaching · San Diego

Live a life
by design,
not by default.

You're not stuck. You're just waiting for the right push. Together we build clarity, accountability, and a life that actually belongs to you.

Whole-person coaching.
No fluff, no shortcuts.

Career, fitness, mindset, life — it all connects. I work with people who are done making excuses and ready to own every part of their story.

01
Own It

Radical accountability isn't punishment — it's freedom. We start by getting honest about what's actually happening.

02
Design It

Most people inherit their lives. We build yours from intention — with purpose, clarity, and values at the center.

03
Live It

Insights without action are just daydreams. We move fast, iterate, and make the work feel real — not theoretical.

04
Sustain It

Real change sticks. We build habits, routines, and inner structures that keep you moving long after we're done.

Choose your path.

All engagements include a free discovery call. Commit to the process and the results will follow.

Austin Taylor

Midwestern roots.
San Diego life.
Real results.

I'm a CTI-trained coach with certifications in positive psychology, wellbeing, health, and life coaching — plus five years of small business coaching in my back pocket. But honestly? The credentials are just the foundation.

What I actually bring is warmth, directness, and a deep belief that you are not the sum of your circumstances. I've worked with people in the weeds of business and the chaos of life — and I know that the same excuses that hold you back at work follow you home.

My coaching is whole-person by design. We don't fix one thing and ignore the rest. We build a version of you that can carry everything you're carrying — and still move forward.

What people are saying.

Real words from real people. More coming soon as the practice grows.

As I’ve had various coaching experiences throughout my career, it became very apparent very quickly that Austin isn’t just any coach. Having a coach that meets you where you are and inspires you to effectuate real change in your life is indescribable and invaluable.

I had the privilege of working with Austin during my time being coached at Buffini & Company, and she was, without question, the best coach I worked with there. What sets Austin apart is her understanding that success isn’t just about business performance — it’s about the whole person.
Meghan Walker
Coaching Client — Buffini & Company
I had the privilege of working with Austin in a 1-on-1 coaching environment for nearly 2 years. I can say with certainty that she played a major role in the success of my real estate business. In my first year being coached by Austin, I experienced my most successful and productive year in sales.

Real Estate Professional — Coaching Client
I met Austin through Buffini Coaching. My original coach had moved on and I was ready to just give up having a coach and move on. However, I figured I would “try” this new coach for a while, and she was great! Austin made me feel like I was being listened to and we set up a plan that was customized for me and my needs. She helped me tweak my game plan and I had one of my most productive years in the real estate business. Thanks Coach!
