A Little Back Story on My Call to Coaching and Mentoring…

Austin’s call to coaching began at a young age: One morning when his Sunday school teacher was late, Austin was found teaching his peers at the tender age of 5 years old, which included a quick bible lesson, time of prayer, collecting tithe, and asking everyone what they were thankful for. Austin then spent 9 years in private music instruction, logging over 12,000 lessons since he was 15 years old. Austin also truly believes in leading by serving: for many summers, Austin spent several weeks volunteering at a camp for physically and mentally handicapped kids, where he spent that time in 1 on 1 relationship. As soon as Austin was old enough, he assumed every leadership position he possibly could. From Sunday school, to youth group, to college ministry, to young adult ministry, to Church boards, leadership councils, and more. Austin served as President of a NYI council at age 18, and began preaching at age 19, and continues to do so today, now having given over 150 live presentations.

Some Additional Professional History…

Aside from my childhood businesses such as mowing lawns, washing cars, my professional career began at 15, where I took on a full time job teaching studio music lessons; over 12,000 lessons to be exact.

From there, I went on to become a real estate agent, broker, and brokerage principal. I represented national companies, non-profits, investors, and more, in the commercial real estate industry. Soon after being married, I decided to follow one of my long time passions: photography. So, I joined my wife in her business(yes, we shared a VERY deep passion..great fit, right?) as we built and still operate a prestigious wedding photography company, saltandlightphoto.com, which serves 20 very happy couples every year.

Once I “retired” from real estate brokerage, I followed my other deep, lifelong  passion: coaching and mentoring. Several years ago, I began coaching people both professionally, and personally, and have built The Holt Company, into what it is today.

To Sum Austin Up:

I enjoy being with my family, going to Church, being creative, playing music, anything outdoors, and just being. I love life, am a student of life, and seek to grow and expand every single day.

For me, every day begins at 4:30am, so I have time to pray/meditate, workout, nurture relationships(do things for my wife, daughters, and others), and build my business, all before most even wake up. THAT is how much I love this precious life I’ve been given. I am forever thankful.

Many struggle with finding balance in their lives; we forget that what we focus on we will receive more of.
