Hi, I'm Drew Deraney.

I believe that success happens when we find a better way and are willing and able to share it. HOW I do that is by challenging the status quo and thinking differently. Ultimately WHAT I bring is a way to contribute and add value by having an impact on the lives of others.

It wasn't always this way.

For most of my life I was concerned with what people thought of me and how I was supposed to act. I wore many masks to either fit in or be accepted. I didn't realize I was a people pleaser and hiding my authentic self. Pleasing others while hurting myself was an unhealthy game I was unaware I was playing.

Fast forward... In a 9-month span a few years ago, I endured four faith-shaking life events that caused me to question my existence and determine my purpose in life. Why was I here?

I knew I needed to find a better way to live. Through intense self-reflection, awareness and massive action, I realized that in order to find joy and happiness, I needed to adhere to my standards of honesty, integrity and truth - my non-negotiables - and break free from the belief system that was anchored in me for close to 50 years.

Now a men's self-discovery coach, I provide a safe space for men to learn to tap into their natural power through self-discovery to lead their life, write their story and live the life they want to live.

Wait! There's more... I am the proud father of three children, a daughter and two sons. My oldest son was born with autism spectrum disorder. He is, what the experts call, "high functioning," previously called "Level 1 Asperger's" - cognitively strong and socially and emotionally delayed.

I have finally decided to add another tool to my business: I am also The Caregiver Coach and my role is to support family members caring for those with autism spectrum disorder to navigate the system for appropriate services for their loved ones and themselves.
