What clients are saying about David Cotton Coaching

From George: Talking with David and using his resources likely saved my life. I am forever grateful! David helped me tremendously while I was battling depression during the lowest point in my life. A time where I felt completely alone and isolated. He helped me realize that I am in fact not alone and my situation is common amongst LGBT men. Talking to him was extremely comforting because he had been through my situation and made it out on the other side as a better man and human.

From Bob: David is an amazing coach! He really listens, and was able to sort through my mess, and hone in on what was holding me back. I always look forward to our weekly sessions, as he gives me real motivation when I’m losing my way. More importantly, he’s kept me on track and demanded accountability, which was key to helping me reach my goals. If you need a compassionate “kick in the pants”, paired with some valuable life strategy, David Cotton is your man!

From Phillip: David Cotton has been my life coach and has done a good job helping me get through the challenges in my life: controlling my eating habits, difficulty with co-workers, or finances...David has helped me deal with these difficult issues. Others have observed that since talking with David, my attitude has become more positive and upbeat. He offered suggestions on these difficult topics that have helped me get through some of these problems that I am dealing with. David has been a huge help for me in my life. I recommend him highly if you are looking for a life coach!

My Journey to Coaching

Hello, my name is David Cotton and I am passionate about helping you discover and embrace your most authentic self.


Throughout my military and corporate careers, as well as my personal life, I have faced numerous challenges and navigated many transitions and transformations, including multiple major career changes, and finding my true authentic self.


In my 40+ year career I’ve been mentoring and coaching people to achieve their personal level of excellence and success. As a retired US Air Force brigadier general, former senior executive in the Department of Defense, corporate vice president, consultant, and active leadership roles in personal development and advocacy/charity organizations, I bring a wealth of life experience and a down-to-earth, practical perspective to my coaching practice.


I know what it's like to feel lost or stuck and to search for purpose and fulfillment. I am committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore and grow.
