Meet Josh Dolin: Your Online Life Coach & Purpose Pathfinder
Hey, I’m Josh—the coach who listens deeply, asks the right questions, and helps you unlock the clarity you’ve been searching for.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been the friend people turn to when they need to talk—the one who actually listens and gives real, honest advice. That curiosity about what makes us tick led me here: helping people break free from uncertainty and build a life that truly fits.
My Journey: From Business Success to Life Coaching
Not too long ago, I was running an Inc. 5000 digital marketing agency—fast-paced, exciting, and outwardly successful. But something was missing. Deep down, I realized my passion wasn’t growing businesses—it was growing people.
So, I dove headfirst into psychology, therapy, and life coaching. Four transformational years and more than a dozen certifications later, I didn’t just change my career—I rewrote my life.

Always Learning, Always Growing.
I’m a mental health nerd, lifelong learner, and musician at heart. My journey has taken me from the business world to life coaching, but music has always been part of how I process, reflect, and grow.
Just like in music, life is about harmony—balancing passion, purpose, and growth. Whether we’re talking about life shifts, stress, or big decisions, I bring the same creative mindset to coaching that I do to songwriting and playing guitar.
Life Beyond Coaching: What Lights Me Up?
When I’m not coaching, I’m fully living.
✔ Born in Chicago, raised with Midwest values, but found my zen in Arizona’s deserts.
✔ You’ll catch me hiking new trails, writing music, traveling to unexpected faraway places, and exploring life with curiosity.
✔ At home, I’m with my soulmate, my two amazing kids, and our rescue dog, Dakota—who’s pretty convinced she’s the boss.
I’m here to walk beside you on this journey—whether you’re seeking clarity, navigating life’s biggest pivots, or just ready to step fully into your purpose.
Let’s Find Your True Path—Together.
Your journey starts now. Let’s connect and explore what’s possible for you.

Ryan P. - Salt Lake City, UT
“After graduating from a top university and earning an MBA, I thought the path to a successful career would be straightforward. Instead, I found myself in a frustrating cycle of job applications and rejections. It felt like no matter what I did, I couldn’t get my foot in the door.
That’s when I reached out to Josh. Through his coaching, he helped me reconnect with something I had long forgotten: my childhood passion for writing. With his invaluable business expertise and guidance, I was able to turn that passion into a thriving blog and content creation business. Josh didn’t just provide amazing life coaching help—he gave me the strategic support I needed to build something sustainable and successful. I’m now doing work that I love!”
