One-on-One Coaching
Helping high-performers turn life’s messy transitions - in work, relationships, business, or life itself - into their biggest breakthroughs
I specialize in guiding high-performers through life’s transitions - career shifts, leadership leaps, relationship changes, or personal crossroads. With roots as a pro athlete, a PhD in psychology, and 1,500+ coaching hours, I help you not just survive change but use it as a launchpad for inner transformation - building vitality, resilience, purpose, and performance at the next level. My coaching is tailored, deep, and real - no cookie-cutter plans, just a partnership grounded in evidence-based tools like PERMA+4.
“Through over 30 sessions, Beggi helped me navigate major life transitions with clarity and confidence. His ability to create space for reflection - and then guide meaningful action - made a lasting impact on my life.”
— Dr. Inga Dóra Sigfúsdóttir, Professor at Columbia University

About Dr. Beggi Ólafs
I’ve lived many lives - professional footballer, TEDx speaker, PhD in psychology, creator, coach, and researcher. But one thing has stayed the same: I’m obsessed with helping people grow.
My journey started on the B-team bench with a fire in my chest to do more. That drive took me to a national championship, the U-21 Icelandic team, through an identity crisis, across the world to earn my PhD - and eventually, to building a global brand with over a billion views.
Today, I use science-backed tools, honest storytelling, and deep coaching to help others unlock their potential - and become who they’re meant to be.
