Austin Johnson, Ph.D., a seasoned clinical psychologist, is leading a nationwide expansion of his coaching practice, transforming the landscape of corporate well-being. Through his brainchild, Executive Counseling, Johnson blends psychological expertise with insights from cultural anthropology to redefine how people approach leadership and work-life stability.
Johnson has helped clients from multi-million dollar companies, entrepreneurs, small businesses, and Fortune 500 companies. “The beauty of online coaching is that it allows me to connect with clients no matter where they are,” Johnson explains. “I’m excited to bring my approach to executives in every corner of the nation.”
A Refreshing Approach to Executive Coaching
Traditional management consulting firms have long dominated the corporate industry, but Johnson’s approach stands out. “I focus on helping my clients enjoy their work more,” he explains. “Unlike a business coach whose job is to help you make more money, my job is to help you find fulfillment and stability in your professional life.“
This philosophy is rooted in Johnson’s interdisciplinary background, which allows him to approach coaching and consulting from a fresh perspective. By focusing on work-life stability and bridging empathy gaps, he helps his clients navigate leadership better.
Johnson’s clients have experienced transformative growth both personally and professionally. Eugene T., a client, credits Johnson with helping to identify and embrace fresh prospects for growth and leadership.
“The fact that I can access his guidance from anywhere has been a game-changer for me and my business,” says Eugene T. “Dr. Johnson has helped me recognize growth and leadership opportunities that I didn’t even realize existed. He’s helped me improve my ability to communicate my value and to pursue projects that have led to monetization and recognition as a thought leader.”
Addressing the Cultural Underpinnings of Workplace Issues
One key factor that sets Johnson apart is his focus on addressing the cultural roots of workplace issues, particularly burnout. With burnout affecting C-suite executives at a higher rate than middle management or front-line employees, Johnson emphasizes improving job satisfaction by providing high-level support for teams and peer-level support for leaders.
To accomplish these goals, Johnson applies psychological principles, cultural anthropology concepts, and existential psychotherapy to help clients and readers rethink old paradigms. He shares these freely through his newsletter. “By making these resources available online, I’m able to reach a wider audience and help more people than ever before,” Johnson says.
Johnson also highlights the importance of modulating energy between work and personal life in creative yet practical ways. In a recent collaboration with author and men’s fashion expert Jeff Lack, the two explored ways that something as simple as dressing more intentionally to the occasion at hand, be it work or home, can help achieve a greater balance in the long run.
Lack and Johnson agreed that dressing for the occasion will make people feel more mentally connected. “Your work will suffer if you are still in your PJs trying to work at midday or don’t change when you get home or for family or meal time. Clean, fresh, appropriate clothing will set you in the scene, even if adjusting out of your head takes some time,” Lack explains.
The Future of Executive Coaching
The potential for a shift in the executive coaching industry is imminent. “Austin Johnson’s approach is unique,” says an anonymous industry expert. “While it remains to be seen how his methods will translate on a larger scale, there’s no denying that he’s tapping into a growing desire for more empathetic coaching practices.“
Reflecting on his mission, he shares, “If I can help people find joy and meaning in their work, I know I’m making a difference. Expanding my online coaching services makes me one step closer to achieving that goal.”
Johnson is poised to make an even greater impact by expanding his online coaching services. As more executives experience the power of his holistic, culturally-informed approach, people will likely see a positive difference in how they think about leadership and success.

Man fatally shot during dog walk in Northwest Austin, neighbor arrested
AUSTIN, Texas — A man walking his dog with his son was fatally shot by a neighbor Friday evening in Northwest Austin, police said.
Billy Carlisle, 41, was shot at the intersection of Gardenridge Hollow and Wallace Drive at approximately 6:06 p.m. May 8. Austin-Travis County EMS attempted lifesaving measures, but Carlisle was pronounced dead at 6:45 p.m.
Hunter Buchmeyer, 36, was taken into custody in connection with the shooting.
According to APD, Carlisle was walking his dog with his son when he and Buchmeyer, also walking his dog, got into a verbal altercation. The two neighbors had “prior history,” APD said.

The dispute escalated to the point that Buchmeyer called 911 to report the altercation before shooting Carlisle. According to police, Buchmeyer yelled at someone to “get back” before the call disconnected.
Buchmeyer remained at the scene and attempted CPR on Carlisle before officers arrived.
No charges have been filed. APD said the investigation remains open.
The case is being investigated as Austin’s 23rd homicide of 2026.
Anyone with information is asked to contact APD at 512-974-TIPS or submit an anonymous tip through Capital Area Crime Stoppers at austincrimestoppers.org or 512-472-8477. A reward of up to $1,000 may be available for information leading to an arrest.

Antisemitic incidents in Rhode Island fell by half in 2025, ADL says
There was a significant reduction in the number of antisemitic incidents in Rhode Island in 2025, according to a national Jewish advocacy group.
According to the Anti-Defamation League’s latest Audit of Antisemitic Incidents, there were 26 antisemitic incidents in the state last year. That’s down from the 52 incidents counted by the group in 2024.
Samantha Joseph, New England regional director of the Anti-Defamation League, says a big reason for the reduction is a steep decline in antisemitism on college campuses.
“It shows that campus administrators are taking their responsibilities very seriously to provide a safe environment for all of their students,” said Joseph.
Brown University had over $500 million in federal funding frozen by the Trump administration last year following investigations into alleged antisemitism on campus. The funding was restored after Brown reached a settlement with the administration.
The reduction in antisemitic incidents in Rhode Island reflects a wider trend in New England as a whole. According to the ADL’s report, there were 400 antisemitic incidents in the region in 2025, compared to 638 the previous year.
While she’s pleased about the overall drop in antisemitic incidents in Rhode Island, Joseph says a number of concerning trends continue to persist. In particular, the state is still seeing more anti-Jewish incidents than it did prior to the October 7 attacks on Israel that launched the Gaza War in 2023.
Joseph is also concerned about the violent nature of local incidents of antisemitism.
“Even though overall incidents are down, assaults are up and assaults with a deadly weapon are up significantly,” said Joseph. “Our communities remain concerned for their safety, and our work is far from done.”
