It strikes me that i've never in this life been so accurately seen, so patiently held, and so lovingly poked -- all at the same time even -- than i have by Mr. Coutts.

Thanks Universe.

Adam truly sees me, with depth and clarity, sees me for what I am and who I am. For that I am honored and grateful. Plus he is a nasty, snarly sexysnowleopard mofo. Adam, our interactions on the playa this year were gems.

In addition to a sardonic, goth 'tude, Adam has an expansive spirit that brings much peace, insight and clarity into the lives of those around him. I don't see him that often but it makes me really glad to know that he's here. Thanks for keeping it real, my friend.

I can’t write a testimonial for Adam that’s just all flowers, sweetness and sunshine, because Adam’s not all sunshine, nor, I think, would he wish to be. I’ve learned to expect the unexpected from Adam, I’ve learned to be challenged, learned to lean against his sharp edge and enjoy the sensation. Nonetheless, I laugh a lot when I’m with him, and I love him tons. I enjoy swimming in his words, intensity, spiritual teachings, thoughtful reflections, quotes, personal growth audio, jokes, laughter, disappointments and love. Through darkness or light, he brings me closer to my heart. Plus ... he’s the best dirty-talker in the universe.

i was just noting the other day that Adam's meditation class was a big influence on the start of my spiritual path and practices. He taught me the basics of how to meditate in his class and I left our classes feeling in touch with a deep, blissful peace. His style of teaching and his friendship are of the patient, humorous, honest and quick-witted variety. I am excited for him to put all of his brilliant thoughts and ideas into print some day and for when he becomes a full-time psycho-spiritual personal growth leader.
