STEP INTO THE NOW
AND DEFINE YOUR GREATEST CHAPTER.
Root yourself in gratitude and uncover your purpose.

As featured in






I’m Erwin Benedict Valencia.
Welcome to the Now.

For nearly two decades, I’ve had the honor of guiding athletes, CEOs, artists, and visionaries navigate the pressures of success and the weight of big transitions.
I’ve helped them find balance in the chaos, align their actions with their values, and rediscover what truly matters.
Gratitude has been my foundation, keeping me grounded through every challenge—from pioneering mindfulness programs in professional sports to building a life rooted in service and connection. And I’m here to share this with you.
Together, we will…

Anchor you in the present, no matter the chaos around you.

Embrace gratitude so you can see the possibilities instead of roadblocks.

Take intentional steps to create a life that feels purposeful.
TO THE PERSON BENEATH THE NOISE...
I see you.
You’ve achieved so much, and yet here you are, standing at a crossroads.
Maybe you’re stepping into an unknown chapter and feeling ungrounded. Maybe success has left you searching for deeper meaning. Or maybe you’ve lost the spark that once lit your path.
There are moments of uncertainty, like the ground beneath you has shifted. But let me remind you that this moment is a gift. It’s a chance to pause and reflect.
The answers aren’t out there but within. They’re waiting, somewhere beneath the noise, the rush. Waiting for stillness, for presence, for gratitude.
It all starts here. In the NOW.
Are you ready? Let’s do this together.
