I know what it’s like to be caged.
For 15 years, I played the role—climbing the corporate ladder, collecting recognition, building the “right” life.

I was successful without being happy. I was a leader without knowing how to hold myself.

Yet, I adapted. I delivered. I pushed through.
Recognition kept on coming… but it never filled me.

On the outside, I looked like a success story. On the inside, I was disappearing.

My breaking point wasn’t failure, it was admitting something that changed everything: A life that looks “right” can be deeply wrong if it’s not lived in your truth.

So I dared to choose again.
I let go of structures, ties, and expectations that weren’t mine.
I separated. I resigned. I built from zero.

My work lies on helping other tigers wake up—to remember their strength, reclaim their power, and build a life that feels alive, not just impressive.

I’m Chris Palasz, a Radical Autonomy Coach. Not because I studied it—because I lived it.

My mission is to help you become the king of your own jungle — by installing a new internal operating system built on self-governance.

I give you the mindset and tools to stop being a “high-performing resource” and start acting as the CEO of your professional life.

And if you’re there—caught in that tension between what’s expected and what’s real— I’m here to walk with you.
