About Us
Hi, my name is Al Gardner. I am a certified life coach and the founder and President of Direction Connection, LLC., an organization born out of a time in my life when I needed direction but had difficulty finding it. Although I stumbled upon coaching, most of the coaching I experienced seemed like little more than accountability sessions. I needed accountability but I needed so much more than that. I encountered a lot of great caring people, but I needed someone to help me figure things out!
I ultimately decided I wanted to help fill the gap I thought was missing in coaching. So, I transitioned out of sales and into human services and human capital. I worked as a crisis counselor and then as an executive recruiter. During this time, I also became a certified life coach and founded and incorporated Direction Connection, LLC. I coached and worked with literally hundreds of people struggling with everything from spiritual and/or emotional issues, to career advancement. I eventually left my other jobs and devoted myself full-time to just my business of coaching. That’s where you come in.
