Jake Smolarek is a high-performance coach and entrepreneur with over 20 years of business experience and 17 years of coaching high-achievers, including entrepreneurs, founders, executives, and professionals, ready to stop playing small and follow through.

After arriving in the UK in 2004 with just £150 in his pocket and barely speaking English, Jake built multiple businesses from scratch across construction, PR, digital marketing, and coaching while navigating some of life’s most brutal setbacks.

In 2007–2008, he lost everything during the financial crash: his business collapsed, he went into debt, his relationship ended, and he was told (twice) that he had only months to live. That rock-bottom moment became a reset, leading to the development of the no-BS frameworks he now teaches worldwide.

Jake is known for his raw honesty, sharp mindset work, and ability to turn chaos into clarity. He doesn’t do fluff, therapy language, or overused buzzwords. Instead, he delivers bold, clear, and actionable frameworks designed to get people moving and keep them executing.

Whether he’s coaching one-on-one, speaking on stage, or showing up on a podcast, Jake brings fire, focus, and fundamental tools that help people perform under pressure, take ownership, and finally follow through.

He’s currently active in three businesses:

A high-performance coaching practice (his core passion)

A digital marketing agency focused on SEO, PR, and paid ads

A lead generation business in the construction space

Jake’s message is simple: Stop waiting for clarity. Stop playing small. Get clear, get disciplined, and execute.

Michael Villari is the Co-Founder, Secure Virtual Solutions (SVS)

Born and raised in Holland, PA, Michael Villari is a proud graduate of LaSalle College High School and a lifelong athlete who played baseball through college and beyond. After college, he began his professional journey with the Faulkner Organization — a role he still looks back on as his favorite job for its leadership, culture, and operational excellence.

However, the demanding hours took him away from what mattered most: family. Seeking more balance, Michael transitioned into the financial services industry but quickly realized that selling insurance wasn’t aligned with his passion or purpose.

That clarity led to something greater. Drawing from his operational background and alongside his wife Becky — whose expertise in offshoring and workforce strategy shaped the vision — the two launched Secure Virtual Solutions (SVS). Today, SVS helps small businesses streamline operations and reclaim their time by integrating skilled, professionally managed virtual assistants into their teams.

Michael is fueled by the belief that business owners should be able to grow without sacrificing their sanity — or their weekends.

Bullied almost every day as a shy, small-built expat kid in London, Ash quickly realized that survival wasn’t about being the loudest in the room, it was about finding your people. The lack of connection in those early years made one thing painfully clear: community isn’t a luxury, it’s oxygen.
Ash powered through adversity, earning degrees from MIT and Oxford, not just collecting certificates, but building a mind sharpened by code and a heart tuned to human behavior. He went on to lead major tech projects for the BBC, HMRC, and the UK Government, impacting millions of lives — but something was missing.
That “something” became Odd Circles, his bold answer to a quiet crisis: coaches, mentors, and solo experts stuck in isolation, overbooked and underpaid, struggling to grow in a world demanding scale. With Odd Circles, Ash built more than a SaaS platform — he built a movement, helping coaches turn one-way content into two-way conversations, followers into paying members, and burnout into belonging.
Today, thousands of creators and experts use Odd Circles to build communities that 3x their income, but more importantly, they build circles where no one feels like the odd one out.

Shane Hicks graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point.

Early in his military career, he took a blow to the head in hand-to-hand combat training that resulted in two torn retinas, a concussion, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). After three surgeries, Shane was unexpectedly medically separated and had to fight for disability benefits. He then struggled to build a business within his residual capacity while finding employment opportunities for his formerly unemployed military spouse. Together, they learned the power of relationships and networking.

For over ten years, Shane and his wife have helped coach numerous startups and established businesses to grow their businesses. RebootVA.org was established to provide Veterans and their families with the resources they need to grow their own businesses, just like Shane and his wife had to do 25-years ago.
