Meet Erin & Chris — Life Coaches for Teens, Young Adults, and Parents Who Want More for Their Family
We’re not just coaches. We’re parents of four—and we’ve helped over 1,000 teens, young adults, and families rebuild connection, confidence, and direction during one of the most challenging seasons of life.
We Understand—Because We’re Living It Too
Â
We’re Erin Verdis and Chris Adang—parents of four teenagers and the founders of Extraordinary Purpose.
And like you…
We’ve seen what today’s world is doing to teens and young adults:
âś” Constant distractions (phones, gaming, social media)
âś” Lack of motivation and follow-through
âś” Anxiety about the future
âś” Disconnection at home
This isn’t just something we coach.
It’s something we navigate in our own home every day.
That’s why our work is different.
Why We Started Extraordinary Purpose
Â
We created Extraordinary Purpose because we saw a gap.
Parents were trying everything…
Talking more. Pushing harder. Taking things away.
And it wasn’t working.
Not because they weren’t good parents—
but because this stage of life requires a different approach.
👉 Less control
👉 More connection
👉 Clear structure
👉 Strong leadership
This became the foundation of our work.
Â
What Makes Our Coaching Different
Â
We don’t just “talk things through.”
We help teens and young adults become someone different.
Through our proven coaching model:
✔ Self-Discovery → Who they are, what matters, what drives them
✔ Future Vision & Goals → Clear direction and meaningful goals
✔ Empowered Identity & Rituals → Habits, structure, and follow-through
Because when identity shifts…
everything else starts to follow.

Her Approach
Erin’s coaching is grounded, compassionate, and deeply relational.
She doesn’t just give advice—
she creates a space where young women feel seen, heard, and understood…
while also being challenged to step into a stronger, more aligned version of themselves.
Because this isn’t just about “feeling better.”
It’s about helping them become someone who:
âś” Trusts themselves
âś” Follows through
âś” Knows who they are
âś” And moves forward with confidence and clarityÂ

His Approach
Chris’s coaching is direct, grounded, and real.
He meets both young men and fathers where they are—without judgment—
while challenging them to step into a higher standard of how they show up.
Because this isn’t about temporary motivation.
It’s about becoming someone who:
✔ Takes action even when it’s hard
âś” Follows through consistently
✔ Leads themselves—and their family—with purpose
✔ And builds a life and relationships they’re proud of
