Education / Certifications / Other Highlights:
I’m Dr. Mark A. Mitchell — a professional life and leadership coach, proud Air Force veteran, and the founder of Pay Attention Coaching. But more than titles, I’m someone who genuinely understands what it feels like to hit a wall and wonder, “What’s next for me?”
After over 20 years of service in the military and as a senior leader in the federal government, I realized something: people are craving more than just success — they’re craving clarity, confidence, and purpose. That’s where I come in.
I work with people who are ready to stop spinning their wheels and start living with intention. Whether you’re navigating a career change, dealing with stress, trying to build better habits, or just looking for someone who truly listens and helps you see what’s possible, I’m here for that.
Coaching with me isn’t about hype. It’s about real talk, real strategy, and real results. My goal is simple: to help you pay attention to what truly matters and take bold, meaningful steps toward the life you actually want.
When you're ready to take your next step, whether personally or professionally, you deserve a coach who combines experience with genuine care.
As a seasoned leadership professional, U.S. Air Force veteran, and certified life coach, I bring over 20 years of real-world experience in high-stakes environments. I have helped leaders, professionals, veterans, and everyday individuals navigate transitions, overcome stress, and regain their sense of direction and purpose.
What sets my coaching apart is a clear, results-driven approach based on trust, accountability, and practical strategies tailored to your specific goals. You won’t receive vague advice or one-size-fits-all plans; instead, you'll get focused guidance, real conversations, and the tools needed to create meaningful, lasting change.
Clients choose to work with me because I don’t just listen — I help them see, decide, and act. Whether you want to lead with confidence, build better habits, or find clarity in the chaos, I will help you move forward with intention and impact.
Your breakthrough begins the moment you decide to pay attention, and I will be with you every step of the way.
