Dean Whitney · Get Better Lab
Life Coach for Founders
Most life coaches aren't built for founders. They don't understand the pressure of a cap table, the loneliness of the top seat, or the way building a company rewires your nervous system over years. Dean Whitney does. As a certified neuroscience coach, polyvagal practitioner, and someone who has spent nearly two decades working with high-performers, Dean brings a rare combination of scientific rigor and genuine understanding to founder coaching.
