About Paul Bruce

My inquiry into the fields of psychology and philosophy began as an odd and inquisitive youth.  Both understanding what makes a person who they are, and what makes up the lives they live, allowed me to explore questions about the nature of the self, the meanings to be found in existence, and the paths to making the most of a life limited by time.  These questions led me to formal academic study in psychology, and continued additional study in philosophy. Particular areas of interest include: depth and individual psychology, personality theory, formal logic, moral philosophy, epistemology, metaphysics, and spirituality.

My Life Coaching education has given me strategies for integrating the psychological and philosophical with the practical, turning deep insights into tangible outcomes for my clients.

In addition, my experience as a personal trainer has brought me to work with many different minds and bodies, including persons with physical disabilities, mental health struggles, and other special needs. I enjoy personalizing fitness programming to accommodate unique individuals.

And after over a decade of training busy clients at big-box and boutique gyms, I’ve come to view the notion that one must “go to the gym” to be healthy as misleading and needlessly complicating the fitness training process, inspiring me to focus on minimalist methods that allow great fitness training sessions without any compromise.

I am also a huge nerd of films and comic books, especially anything involving superheroes, which are the inspiration for my study and practice, all in pursuit of reaching human mental, physical, and moral potential.
