… to where you want to be.

Meet Dan...

Dan Abbott is a life coach based in Portland, OR who works with individuals and non-profits both locally and online.

Hi! I am Dan

My Mission
My passion is coming alongside individuals and non-profits to
help them reach their visions, goals, and dreams.
My Story
I have spent over 10 years working directly within the non-profit
sector. I understand the unique challenges of mission-driven
work, tight resources, and the constant demand to balance big
visions with everyday execution.
Years ago, I found myself needing direction. I hired a personal
coach who transformed my approach to life and career. They
helped me organize my workflow, clear my mental clutter, and
align my daily actions with my long-term purpose.
That experience was instrumental in how I operate today. It also
sparked a deep desire within me to provide that exact same
breakthrough for others.
How I Help
• Individual Strategy: Turning personal overwhelm into
structured, actionable life and career plans.
• Non-Profit Growth: Aligning organizational mission with
practical, sustainable strategic goals.
• Accountability Partnership: Providing the consistent
support needed to sustain long-term momentum.

5 SIGNS YOU COULD USE SUPPORT

Could a Virtual Nonprofit Life Coach Help You?

You care about your mission. But the person behind the work needs support, too. If these signs sound familiar, Dan Abbott offers space to clarify what matters, work through what feels overwhelming, and make room for your own goals.

A free conversation about what you need and whether coaching is a good fit. All sessions are virtual. 

01

You’re stretched too thin.

You regularly work beyond your capacity, struggle to set boundaries, or feel guilty taking time for yourself.

02

Everything feels like a priority.

Daily demands leave little room to step back, clarify your goals, and decide where your time and energy belong.

03

You feel stuck or on your own.

You need space to talk through challenges, consider decisions, and reconnect with what you want for your next chapter.

04

Good intentions aren’t becoming action.

You have ideas for change but struggle to turn them into realistic plans and consistent follow-through.

05

Your own life keeps coming last.

The mission takes so much of your attention that rest, relationships, personal growth, and life outside work get pushed aside.

Helping the people behind the mission find clarity and direction.
