This Month's Program
Wayne Basist
Mental Fitness Coach for Attorneys & Business Professionals
Wayne Basist is a Mental Fitness Coach and dynamic speaker, known for his passion, raw authenticity, and ability to connect on a deeply human level. His journey is a powerful testament to resilience, proving that even the most profound adversity can be transformed into strength, wisdom, and purpose.
Wayne spent years in the high-stakes world of litigation and corporate bankruptcy law, working in Big Law, small firms, and successfully building his own practice. He knows firsthand the relentless pressures of the legal profession—the burnout, the impossible expectations, and the emotional toll legal professionals experience. But his life took a dramatic turn when a catastrophic accident forced him to rebuild from rock bottom.
Wayne’s “secret sauce” is not just his expertise in mental resilience and peak performance, but his lived experience—transforming pain into purpose, setbacks into steppingstones, and challenges into opportunities for growth. Attorneys and legal professionals hire him to unlock peak performance, reclaim their well-being, and thrive in both their careers and personal lives.
His journey to coaching was deeply personal. After a successful legal career, a catastrophic car accident left him totally disabled, leading to eight spinal surgeries, chronic pain, and battles with addiction, depression, and PTSD. Determined to rebuild his life, he explored every path to healing—traditional medicine, holistic therapies, trauma recovery programs, and mental fitness training. This transformative experience led him to become a Certified Health and Life Coach and a Positive Intelligence Mental Fitness Coach, dedicated to helping attorneys and business professionals. strengthen
Committed to giving back to the community, Wayne volunteers with the Texas Lawyers’ Assistance Program (TLAP) and the 12-step recovery community, supporting attorneys and other individuals struggling with substance use and mental health challenges. His coaching approach is tailored to the unique demands of legal and business professionals, offering 1-on-1 coaching, small group programs, and firm-wide trainings to help attorneys develop the mental resilience needed to thrive in their careers.

As a family law attorney, I have represented clients in countless divorces and helped clients navigate these challenges for over 15 years. Although I was their legal advocate, I never truly felt capable of managing clients’ issues when it came to emotional part of divorce. I found myself struggling as an attorney working with confused, intimidated, and anxious clients who were so overwhelmed with court hearings, opposing counsel’s demands, and organizing financial documents – in addition to feeling the trauma of divorce. My clients felt helpless, and my career became stressful and demanding. I started to lose focus of my own reasons for practicing family law.
After several years of needing a change, I made it a priority help clients sort through the emotional part of divorce, become more involved in their cases, and thrive in the post-divorce transition once the lawyers and judges were out of the picture. I knew I had to reinvent the divorce experience by providing support to my clients, as well as guidance, focus, and tools for a peaceful transformation. I became certified as a Divorce Coach and Divorce Transition & Recovery Coach, and today, my practice is devoted to helping men and women who are simply overwhelmed by the divorce process and ready to gain clarity, confidence, and the ability to move forward with grace.
