Become The Man You Were Born to BE

Create Your Purpose. Own Your Power.

A 7 Step Protocol for the Unstoppable Man

MEET YOUR COACH

Jeff Zacharski is a master coach, men’s leadership mentor, and founder of Sea-Level Retreats who transforms high-performing men—entrepreneurs, creatives, and emerging leaders—into the powerful, aligned forces they were born to be. With a revolutionary approach blending deep personal development, high-performance strategies, and embodied leadership, Jeff guides men beyond the cycle of burnout, overthinking, and stagnation into a life of clarity, purpose, and bold execution.

Jeff’s comprehensive coaching framework addresses the core elements blocking most men from their true potential: identity mastery, emotional and nervous system regulation, embodied leadership, brotherhood, and aligned execution. His methodology isn’t about adding more to an already full plate—it’s about reclaiming who you truly are and leading from that place of authentic power.

I’ve found ‘success’ many times, but something was always missing

After years as a startup founder, music producer, and technical team leader, Jeff found himself facing the same quiet crisis as many of his clients: outward success paired with inward disconnection. This reckoning launched him into the heart of transformational work—through Peru, Costa Rica, and Guatemala—where he began forging the deeper path he now leads others through.

What emerged was a new model of leadership—one that abandons hustle culture in favor of inner authority, emotional clarity, and deep connection. Jeff’s work now resonates with men who refuse to settle for “good enough” and know that the true cost of playing small is their soul’s integrity.

His core belief: the most powerful men aren’t overachievers—they are present, grounded, and aligned with purpose. Through high-impact coaching and immersive retreats, Jeff builds environments where transformation is not only possible—it’s inevitable.

Over the last eight years, Jeff has guided hundreds of men to double their impact, deepen their relationships, and build lives that reflect who they truly are. His clients don’t just succeed—they evolve into leaders defined not by performance, but by presence, purpose, and power.

Trusted by Men Leading in Life, Business, and Purpose at:

True transformation begins when a man creates the freedom to show up fully—on purpose, in power.

Ready to Access It All?

To liberate the authentic power within every man who senses, in his core, that he was built for more than the incomplete success he’s learned to tolerate.

As a master coach and facilitator, I call forth the 40% of your potential that remains untapped—the raw, unbridled power you’ve kept hidden behind comfort, distraction, and the story that “good enough” is all you can expect.

This is not about becoming someone new. This is about stripping away the layers of compromise, hesitation, and self-doubt that have buried the man you’ve always been—the leader whose clarity cuts through noise, whose presence commands respect without demanding it, whose execution is as relentless as it is purposeful.

I stand against the epidemic of men drifting through lives they’ve outgrown, building empires that don’t fulfill them, and maintaining relationships where they never fully show up.

Here’s how I can support you:

1:1 Coaching
You know you’re holding yourself back. PERIOD. It’s time to make big changes in your life. You want to work with someone who is no-nonsense, doesn’t buy your bullsh*t (like everyone else), and calls you into life-transforming, courageous action on the regular.
Men's Retreats
Habits, patterns, and routines shape our lives, while distractions and circumstances pull us in all directions. Sea-Level will disconnect from it all and immerse you in the transformative power of nature. With your new brothers by your side, get ready for a life-altering experience that unlocks new levels of purpose, fulfillment, and achievement within a safe, grounded, and loving brotherhood.
Leadership Workshops

Leadership as we know it is ineffective, outdated, and comprised of hierarchy and ego. The world is asking for leaders who can partner, fail forward, act with courage and transparency. It takes vulnerability, and leaders must be willing to go there first. They must do their own work, heal, commit to radical self-compassion and personal growth, and, in doing so, give everyone around them permission to do the same. This is how we truly shift cultures, inspire environments of innovation, and drive real, sustainable change.

INCREMENTAL CHANGE

THE ILLUSION OF PROGRESS

Rearranging deck chairs on a sinking ship.

You switch up your morning routine, read another business book, try a new productivity hack—while the foundation remains broken.

The hamster wheel of endless effort.

You push harder, grind longer, and accumulate more knowledge—only to wake up exhausted, still feeling like something's missing.

Hitting the same ceiling.

Despite years of small adjustments, you keep facing the same barriers in business, relationships, and your inner life. The names change, but the pattern remains.

Living in the shallow end.

You know the deep end exists—you can see it—but you've convinced yourself that wading in the shallows is the responsible choice.

Death by a thousand tweaks.

Each small change drains your energy while the core issues remain untouched, leaving you more depleted than when you started.

EMBODIED TRANSFORMATION:

THE POWER YOU WERE BORN FOR

A complete rewiring of your operating system.

Not just changing what you do, but fundamentally shifting who you are and how you show up in every moment.

The difference between a spark and an inferno.

When transformation is embodied, your presence alone shifts rooms, opportunities magnetize to you, and people respond to the unspoken authority you carry.

Breaking through the invisible ceiling.

The barriers that once seemed permanent dissolve when you operate from your authentic power rather than your conditioned patterns.

From conscious competence to unconscious mastery.

You stop overthinking every move and start executing from a place of instinctive clarity and undeniable confidence.

The liberation of all of you.

Most men live accessing only 60% of their potential. Embodied transformation unlocks the dormant 40%—the part that changes everything.

It takes twice as much energy to be the man that you're not than who you truly are.

How it works

RADICAL
CLARITY

Most men live in a fog of distraction and competing priorities. This work cuts through the noise to reveal what truly matters. You'll identify the exact patterns holding you back and the precise path forward. This isn't surface awareness—it's bone-deep clarity that makes hesitation impossible.

TOTAL
RESPONSIBILITY

The dividing line between men who settle and men who thrive is ownership. This work eliminates excuses and the habit of outsourcing your power. You'll take 100% responsibility for your results, impact, and fulfillment. When you own everything, you can change anything.

TRANSFORMATIONAL ACTION

Knowledge without action is useless. This work bridges the gap between knowing and becoming through decisive action taken from authentic power. You'll embody transformation through aligned action that reshapes your business, relationships, and identity at the core.

Don't Fall into the Drift

78% of high-achieving men report operating at less than 60% of their full potential,

Creating a $2.7 million average lifetime "potential gap" in earnings, impact, and fulfillment. Men who work with a master coach like Jeff close this gap in under 18 months.

91% of successful entrepreneurs and executives experience "success depression"

The profound disconnect between external achievement and internal fulfillment—costing them an average of 7.4 years of their prime before taking decisive action.

Only 8% of men have someone in their life who will genuinely challenge them to step into their full power.

The other 92% are unconsciously settling for mediocrity while believing they're pushing their limits. Men in Jeff's coaching program break this pattern within the first 90 days.

You're at a Crossroads

Either continue as you are, or claim what you know is possible:
  • Reclaim full ownership of your life instead of watching it happen to you from the sidelines.
  • Step into your natural authority as a leader who operates from clarity, not conditioning.
  • Execute on your most audacious vision without the hesitation and second-guessing that's kept you playing small.
  • Access transformation that cuts through the noise—no more recycled advice or superficial strategies that never address the root.
  • Build relationships defined by depth and authenticity, not performance and obligation.
  • Live fully alive—present, powerful, and engaged in every moment rather than sleepwalking through your one life.

Every day you wait is a day you actively choose the familiar comfort of mediocrity over the man you were built to become.

I would say- are you ready to be guided by the wisdom of a lion in human form? Imagine Mufasa from Lion King is evoking a deep sense of exploration and confidence to bloom within you. Get ready to be held to a higher standard for yourself and unlock your potential.

Jeff is heart-centered at his core and an exceptional coach and facilitator that allows you to see what is possible to achieve your dreams! And he isn't committed to bullshit as he has a passion for people living to their greatest potential.
Nick G

I would tell them that there is no better way to level-up than to lean into someone's teachings. Why spend your whole life trying to discover what you can deeply learn in a single adventure? Why have all elite athletes had coaches?
John R
I used to try to do it all on my own with self-help books and podcasts but it never stuck without accountability and partnership. Working with Jeff, I now understand, trust, and love myself. Jeff is that dependable character you want for an epic adventure through your heart and mind. He is an expert at being there for you to come up with your own answers to tough questions, just don’t expect him to give them to you, rather he will support you to locate the answers inside you.
Thomas F
Hospitality General Manager
Jeff has answers to the questions you weren't even aware you needed to ask. And not in a mythical or profound way — these answers and questions are already inside all of us, we just sometimes need a really, really awesome mirror. Jeff was that mirror for me and he will be that mirror for you.
Brendan
Media Business Owner
I felt like I was going through the motions in life a little. I had a purpose but was alone with a limited team around me. I learned kindness, structure, and a strong commitment to achieving results with a definitive purpose.Jeff is one of the kindest people I know, who is wise beyond his years and wants the very best for everyone. He is generous and caring and he has a real desire to create some positive ripples in the universe.
Mrinal M
Business Owner
I would say, 'Do it now!' At the time I started with Jeff, I was 50 years old. I don't have time to wait around anymore to make my dreams come true and make my vision a reality. I'm 53 now, and my business is booming more than ever. Jeff skillfully gets you enrolled in the vision for your life and holds you accountable to creating it. You might be skittish at first worrying... am I ready for this? Is it worth all the money I’m paying? Do I really wanna do this? The answers are yes yes and Fuck yes!
Phil Stone
Author, Therapist, Music Creator
I used to feel unsure, a bit anxious, and lost. Now, my vulnerability is my superpower. I’m much more open now and more loving to the people in my life. I have gained confidence and a sense of ease in life. Jeff is an innovative and loving leader that can hold tremendous space. He develops trust and support instantly and truly cares about the people he works with.

10 out of 10 would recommend it! It's going to be hard work, but if you're someone that's committed to continued and consistent growth, I'm confident you'll see the transformational results. This work is beyond anything I could have imagined I was signing up for.
Nick R
Entrepreneur
I would say hire Jeff if you want clean, sharp support to go after whatever you want. He's got a brilliant intuition to feel through what's REALLY going on...sometimes even before I do.
Nick L

If you want to play around don't go to Jeff, If you want to be challenged like no sh*t, to be your highest level of self, GO SEE JEFF!I used to feel like there was only one way to do things. I was constantly giving up, changing plans, and feeling defeated and disempowered. I discovered breakthroughs in trust, transparency, vision, my own coaching, and what it looks like to create a brother from a coach.

F.A.Q.

I don’t help high-performing men become better versions of themselves. I transform how they operate at their core.

This isn’t about adding more tools to your arsenal. It’s about rewiring your foundation so you operate from a place of absolute certainty—where distraction, burnout, and self-doubt become foreign concepts rather than daily battles.

Men who step into this work aren’t looking for incremental improvement. They’re demanding the full expression of their power that’s been dormant while they’ve been playing at 60% capacity.

Therapy and coaching serve different purposes. Therapy builds understanding—coaching builds momentum.
Many men have gained valuable insights through therapy but find themselves craving a system that translates awareness into action.
The distinction:

Therapy provides essential healing. This coaching converts insight into tangible power.
Therapy creates understanding of patterns. This work breaks those patterns permanently.
Therapy builds a foundation. This coaching builds the structure that changes everything.

Men thrive with direction and forward movement. This coaching doesn’t dismiss your past—it ensures it no longer dictates your future.

This isn’t about improving your life. It’s about creating an entirely different operating system:
Unshakable Clarity: Not just knowing what you want, but eliminating every obstacle between you and execution.

Authentic Power: The ability to remain centered in chaos, lead through uncertainty, and make decisions that others can’t even comprehend.

Deep Presence: Relationships where you’re fully seen, not performing or hiding behind achievement.
Relentless Execution: Where others hesitate, you move. Where others second-guess, you commit. Where others quit, you’re just warming up.

Total Freedom: Breaking the invisible chains of distraction, people-pleasing, and self-sabotage that have kept you operating at half-capacity.

This isn’t another program to add to your shelf. It’s the complete dismantling of the man you’ve settled for and the emergence of the man you were built to be.

The coaching landscape is crowded with practitioners offering more information. What’s missing is transformation that reaches the core.

The difference between 60% and 100% isn’t another strategy—it’s rewiring who you are at your foundation.
My methodology goes beyond tactics:

Identity Mastery: Not just changing what you think, but shifting who you are—accessing the version of you that operates from certainty.

Nervous System Integration: Developing the capacity to remain centered regardless of external pressure, so leadership becomes instinctive.

Brotherhood & Elevated Standards: The right environment accelerates transformation. When men surround themselves with others who see their highest potential, everything changes.

Embodied Execution: Creating alignment between vision and action so the gap between knowing and doing disappears.

Men who engage in this work typically commit to 2+ years not because they need fixing, but because they recognize that mastery isn’t a destination—it’s a path.

The initial 6-12 months creates the foundation. What follows is the refinement and embodiment that separates the merely successful from the truly extraordinary.

This isn’t a program with an end date. It’s the ongoing forge that continues to shape you into the leader who creates legacy, not just success.

This work isn’t for everyone. It’s for men who feel the gap between who they are and who they’re capable of becoming like a physical ache.

You’re ready if:

Your external success masks an internal knowing that you’re playing far below your capacity.

You’ve exhausted the strategies, books, and quick fixes, and recognize the problem isn’t information—it’s integration.

You’re done with the endless cycle of motivation followed by stagnation.

You’re tired of tolerating a life and leadership that’s merely “good enough” when greatness is your birthright.

If these words hit you in the chest rather than the head, you already know it’s time.

I offer several coaching packages, each designed to create profound transformation at different levels of commitment. Each will feel stretchy.

That’s by design.

The men who create extraordinary results understand: if your investment doesn’t require you to step up, you’re not playing at the level that will transform your life.

Every day at 60% capacity costs you far more than any coaching investment—it’s the slow bleeding of potential and fulfillment.

Men who have made this investment haven’t just seen returns—they’ve experienced complete reinvention:

Doubled revenue while working fewer hours.
Built businesses that energize rather than drain them.
Created relationships where they’re valued for their presence, not just provision.
Developed unshakable confidence no setback can diminish.

If the investment doesn’t make you pause, it’s not big enough to trigger the commitment transformation requires.

Men who are ready don’t need convincing. They need direction.
The path forward is clear:

Apply – Fill out the application that separates those who are serious from those who are merely curious.
Commit – On our call, you’ll get total clarity on the process and what’s required of you.
Transform – Once you’re in, we move immediately into the work. No delay. No hesitation.

If something in you is stirring as you read these words, it’s time to act. Not tomorrow. Not when things slow down. Now
