"Most of my work is with people in the middle of a quiet pivot. The ones who have stopped wanting what they used to want, and haven't yet named what's next."
Kenneth is a coach based in Malaga, Spain. His practice is values-led and slow on purpose. He works with founders, senior operators, and mid-career professionals who have outgrown a stage and want to choose the next one with their eyes open.
Before coaching he spent more than a decade inside large organisations, including a long stretch at Google. The career arc that followed, and the long lunches it took to figure it out, became the 50 Lunches Podcast.
Inside Align he holds three themes: IKIGAI as morning practice, True Self as a childhood-anchored archetype framework, and Inner Values as the audit you redo once a season.
"Is that yours, or is that something you inherited?" That's usually the question. Then we wait for the answer. Kenneth · on the Inner Values theme
The Japanese practice of finding your reason in the morning. Not a Venn diagram. We work with what got you out of bed this season, and what didn't.
A childhood-anchored archetype framework Kenneth developed and runs at kenhellem.com/true-self. It bypasses adult performance bias by asking what the eight-to-twelve-year-old you was like, then maps the gap to your present role.
What you actually care about, distinct from what you've been told to. We name them, test them against last week, and revise. The work is in the revision.
