About Joe

A steadier breath. A clearer heart. A human way forward.

Most people learn to manage life long before they learn to feel it. We push through conflict, hold ourselves together through pressure, and try to stay strong even when something inside us is asking for a different way. My work exists for the moment when carrying everything alone stops working — and the quiet hope that life could feel more honest, connected, and grounded.

I’m Joe Hoppis, a Conscious Coach and Breathwave Facilitator. My approach is simple and human: slow down, get present, create safety, and listen deeply — not just to the words, but to the breath, the body, and the part of you that’s been waiting to be heard.

A Path Built from Both Experience and Heart

My ability to sit with people in their complexity comes from my own. I’ve lived many versions of myself, and each one taught me something about leadership, relationship, humility, and resilience.

Professionally, I’ve spent:

  • Many years as a business owner, building teams and guiding people through high-pressure environments

  • Years as CEO of a proptech company, navigating investor conversations, conflict, vision alignment, and the emotional realities of leadership

  • Countless hours in negotiation, learning what happens beneath the surface of communication, and how people show up when things matter

  • Years of training and practice as a

    • Certified Lead by Heart Facilitator (conscious communication + relational repair)

    • Trained Breathwave Facilitator (nervous system regulation, breath-based emotional clarity)

Personally, I’ve walked through:

  • Divorce — and the grief, repair, and rebuilding that followed

  • Step-parenting and blended family dynamics, with all their tenderness, complexity, and unspoken pressures

  • My own lessons in connection, rupture, and showing up with more presence and less armor

None of these chapters define me, but together they shaped the grounded, humble way I support others now.

How I Work

I don’t come with fixes or formulas.
I come with presence, curiosity, and tools that help soften the internal tension that so often fuels conflict.

My work integrates:

  • Conscious communication and emotional awareness

  • Nervous system regulation

  • Breathwave as a pathway to clarity

  • Space for honesty, reflection, and repair

  • A deep respect for the pace of your body and heart

Together, we slow things down enough to hear what’s actually happening — not the fear, not the reactivity, but the truth beneath it.

This isn’t about becoming perfect.
It’s about becoming more yourself.

Who I Support

I work with people who want a more grounded way through life, including:

  • Individuals navigating transitions, emotional overwhelm, or stuck patterns

  • Couples seeking clarity, calm, communication, and repair

  • Men wanting to lead their lives with steadiness rather than pressure

  • Step-parents and blended families who want support that understands their reality

  • Anyone who feels ready to breathe again — in every sense of the word

Whether we’re navigating a difficult conversation or moving through a Breathwave session, the goal is the same: help you reconnect with the steadiness inside you so you can meet life with more clarity and less tension.

When You’re Ready

If you’re here, you’re already on the path.
The rest, we can walk together — with breath, honesty, and a little more gentleness than life usually allows.
