About Brian Danco
Certified Coach and Business Leader
I used to think success meant pushing through.
I had the title, the team, the 4.8 Glassdoor rating. On paper, it looked like I’d made it. But one morning, staring at a packed calendar of meetings, check-ins, and dashboards, it hit me—I didn’t see myself anywhere in the day ahead.
That moment cracked something open. It wasn’t a breakdown. It was a wake-up call.
I wasn’t burned out. I was misaligned.
For years, I followed the script: lead well, stay loyal, don’t rock the boat. But inside, I was drifting—further from purpose, further from peace. And I realized: if I kept pushing through week after week—deadlines, deliverables, and decisions—I’d lose the man my wife married… the father I wanted to be… the leader I could’ve become.
So I got clear. I built what I couldn’t find in the systems around me: a strategy grounded in values, not just performance. A framework to help high-achieving men stop reacting and start designing what comes next—with intention, profit, and alignment.
Today, that framework powers Janus Life Coaching.
I work with successful professional men who are ready for a new chapter—but don’t know how to turn restlessness into a plan. I help them recalibrate, reconnect with what matters, and make a confident next move.
If you’ve ever thought,
“I can’t stay here… but I don’t know where to go,”
This is your moment.
Let’s build a map that actually fits your life, your truth, and your leadership.

Our History
In 2018, I established Janus Life Coaching to guide professional men aged 40+ through career transitions and retirement. My experiences in managing significant life changes and professional shifts has honed my ability to see beyond the surface and understand the nuanced challenges and opportunities that transitions present.
Professionally, my career has been anything but linear.

From leading teams and managing multi-million dollar portfolios to driving operational excellence and innovation, my career has been a journey of transformation and growth. Each move, whether it was a change in role, company, or country, equipped me with a unique perspective on adapting, overcoming, and thriving through change.
