Enjoy the Journey
ABOUT
My name is Matt Murdoch and I am a Certified Coach who works with professionals in their careers and athletes, to help them find their joy in the journey. Whether you are chasing a personal best, a promotion, looking to find your passion again, or starting something new, I coach people to help them discover what really motivates them and brings a smile to their face even for those 6am dark, rainy, and cold outdoor workouts. I'm big on visioning and aligning your goals with your dreams, but I think finding joy in the present moment and journey is even more important.
I am an amateur athlete who has completed 9 marathons including the Boston Marathon 2 times, with a personal best of 2 hrs and 57 mins. I love running, yoga, cycling, kayaking, snowshoeing, hiking, and being in nature. I am also passionate about all things wellness including sleep, nutrition, physical and mental exercise, and personal development. I work with my clients to build a foundation to optimize their wellness so they can perform at their highest level in the boardroom or at a goal race, which often results in growth in other areas of their lives such as relationships.
I am a Certified Professional Co-active Coach (CPCC) and completed my training with the Co-Active Training Institute in 2020. I also coach internal corporate clients in my current role as a Director of Program Management for a technology company. As part of my passion for personal development, I have a degree in Computer Engineering, a Professional Engineer designation (P.Eng.), a Project Management Professional (PMP) designation, and have completed numerous other workshops and training courses.
I am married to my loving spouse Jennifer and we live in Vancouver, Canada. We enjoy learning new things, cooking, relaxing, and going on adventures to some of our favorite places such as Galiano Island, Tofino, Cultus Lake, Penticton, Iceland, and Newfoundland.

“Matt approached every session ready to listen and with my personal growth in mind. We used an array of tools: time management, prioritization, and goal planning, to name only a few, which ultimately led to a place where I feel successful. Developing my inner-leader with Matt has been an amazing path of growth and I am now at a place where I can achieve my next steps on my own.” - Client
