Helping boys and exceptional young men to rewrite their stories and find the roaring courage they need to lead themselves, their peers and communities.

the incredible power of storytelling

Hi there!

My name is Hawi James Ouma. I’m a Co-Active Coach and Narrative Guide who helps boys and young men to tell and rewrite their stories so they can find purpose, conquer fear and embrace new adventures.

Every young man has a “treasure box” of potential, often hidden beneath the weight of past mistakes, doubt, fatherlessness, stigma or societal labels. I don’t just provide mentoring and coaching; I guide boys and young men through the wilderness of their own stories to find the hero within.

Through Co-Active Coaching, outdoor adventure earning activities and using the incredible power of storytelling, I help the next generation of young men to live a life of clarity, conviction, purpose, self-confidence and roaring courage.

Is your son’s true story getting lost in the noise?

As a mother, it's extremely hard to accept that your son is involved with social vices. I would get agitated and really question my capacity as a parent. But, James helped me get through this and even helped my son to overcome his struggles through coaching and constant guidance.

I was desperate and destitute after losing my job. Not knowing where to turn to for help, I posted my vulnerability online. It's really hard to do because we all want to show the world, that we got it all together yet we are crumbling inside. James helped me find clarity and regain my confidence and my self-worth.

Before I met James, I used to have a negative perspective of my dad, my life and had friendships that were taking away from my value. The work we did with James enabled me to take full responsibility of my personal growth and I was able to exit juvenile prison with my head held high!

"What story are you telling yourself?" This is the first question James asked me when I first met him. Having been used to getting sympathy from people, this question threw me off. But this question shifted something in me. I am now on the path to fully owning my story and using it to create my life purpose.
