Our Backstory

The Moment Institute is grounded in David Drake’s global experience over the past thirty years as a scholar-practitioner and pioneer in the coaching, change, and development spaces. He began his journey in ministry and grief work. He is known as a deep and innovative thinker with a calm presence in supporting change.

David Drake, PhD - Founder & CEOĀ 

"I have dedicated my life to standing in third spaces as a grounded practitioner, visionary thinker, productive scholar, healer in the moment, and founder of three bodies of work.

I have studied, written, and taught all over the world. I have a passion for distilling ideas and insights down to their essence and then creating experiences that use them to support transformative growth."

The Moment Institute is the go-to place for conversations about how we accompany each other in uncertain times, sit together to contemplate the unknown, and work with what is emergent in the field. Together we move beyond our current professions to develop new, embodied, and integrated post-professional modalities — and welcome all kinds of skillful and curious people to our community of practice.
