We Design the Conditions for Sustainable Performance
Flow Prone Performance is a performance consultancy, training, and coaching organization focused on helping leaders, teams, and high performers operate with clarity, steadiness, and effectiveness under pressure.
Our work sits at the intersection of applied neuroscience, performance psychology, leadership science, and systems design. We partner with individuals and organizations to assess performance environments, reduce hidden friction, and install conditions that support consistent execution, recovery, and long-term performance.
Our expertise is in studying, designing, and applying what allows people and teams to perform well over time, particularly in complex, high-pressure contexts.
Rather than pushing for more effort, we help clients redesign the systems that shape behavior, decision-making, and performance.
Why Flow Prone Exists
Low performance is often treated as a problem of effort, mindset, or motivation.
Across sport, business, and leadership, people are taught to push harder, stay disciplined, and manage themselves better. When performance breaks down, the response is usually more pressure, more tools, or more accountability layered onto already strained systems.
Over time, this creates a familiar pattern.
Capable people work harder but feel less clear.
Teams execute but struggle to sustain momentum.
Burnout emerges even when standards remain high.
What is often missing is a deeper examination of the conditions shaping performance.
Flow Prone Performance exists to address that gap.
Rather than treating performance as an individual responsibility alone, our work focuses on the systems surrounding people. We look at how behavior, biology, and environment interact, and how small misalignments can quietly compound into fatigue, inconsistency, and stalled progress.
Flow Prone was built on the belief that sustainable performance is not created by asking people to be more resilient inside broken systems. It is created by redesigning the conditions in which people operate, so high-quality performance becomes more likely and less costly over time.
A Holistic View of Performance
Performance is rarely influenced by a single factor.
In practice, outcomes are shaped by the interaction of leadership decisions, psychological skills, physiological capacity, team dynamics, and the broader environment in which people operate. When these elements are treated in isolation, progress tends to be fragmented and difficult to sustain.
Rather than applying these disciplines separately, we integrate them.
This integrated perspective allows us to see where small misalignments compound into friction, fatigue, and inconsistency, and where targeted adjustments can create disproportionate gains in clarity, energy, and execution.
Performance improves not when one area is optimized in isolation, but when the system as a whole is aligned.
What We Mean by Flow Prone
Flow is often misunderstood as a peak state or a moment of optimal performance that must be chased or forced.
We see it differently.
Being flow prone refers to the likelihood of accessing high-quality focus, clarity, and engagement when it matters, not the constant experience of flow itself.
Flow proneness is not a personality trait.
It is not something you summon through motivation alone.
It is shaped by conditions.
In our work, we focus on designing the conditions that make flow more likely and removing the conditions that make it less likely. This includes how work is structured, how energy is managed, how decisions are made under pressure, and how environments either support or undermine focus and recovery.
When conditions are well designed, people do not need to force performance.
They are more likely to enter states of deep engagement naturally, sustain effort without excessive strain, and recover more effectively between demands.
This is why we focus less on chasing peak moments and more on building systems that increase flow proneness over time.
How We Work
Our work is delivered primarily through structured training and individualized coaching designed to help individuals and teams build systems that support focus, recovery, and sustained performance.
Clients are supported in understanding how their environment, energy, and patterns of work influence performance, and in making targeted adjustments that compound.
Depending on readiness and context, this work may happen individually or within a shared learning environment. Some clients prefer focused one-on-one coaching, while others benefit from training alongside peers who are navigating similar performance demands.
Across all formats, the emphasis is the same. We prioritize application over theory, sustainability over intensity, and systems that can evolve as demands change.
Our goal is not to create reliance on our programs or coaching, but to equip people with ways of working they can continue to refine long after formal support ends.
The Team
We are a team of performance coaches, educators, and practitioners with expertise spanning leadership, performance psychology, physiology, flourishing, and team dynamics.
What unites our work is not a single background or discipline, but a shared commitment to understanding how performance actually unfolds under pressure, and how to design conditions that support consistency, clarity, and sustainable excellence.
We work collaboratively, drawing on different lenses to see patterns others may miss and to support clients from multiple angles rather than a single point of view.

A Few of Our Clients' Experiences
The training and coaching these coaches provide is game-changing. They're smart, direct, and know exactly how to push you to think deeper while still being incredibly supportive.
Marcus helps me get the most out of every minute. To perform highly effective, highly leveraged work in just a few hours so that I can spend most of my time on the slopes, in the pool, with family, or with friends.
Working with these coaches completely changed how I understand and apply flow...My financial performance has increased without burnout, and I've actually had more time than ever.
Sustainable performance is not created by pushing harder inside systems that were never designed to support it.
It emerges when behavior, energy, and environment are aligned in ways that make clarity, focus, and recovery easier to access over time.
That is the work we care about, and the perspective we bring to every program, coaching relationship, and conversation.
