Welcome to JBG Office Hours: Where Your Business Gets the Coaching It Deserves (and a Little Bit of Magic Too)

Hi there! šŸ‘‹

Whether you’ve stumbled upon JBG Office Hours while chasing a dream, scaling a side hustle, or simply looking for a fresh perspective on your business journey—welcome. I’m genuinely thrilled you’re here.

Who Am I, and Why Should You Pull Up a Chair?

I’m John, the heart behind JBG Office Hours. I’m a business and startup coach with over 35 years of nonlinear experience (yes, that’s a nice way of saying I’ve zig-zagged through a lot of startups, companies and industries—and learned plenty along the way). I’ve held both right-brain and left-brain doer and leadership roles—creative director one day, marketing operations strategist the next. If business were a dance, I’d be your cha-cha-cha and your Excel spreadsheet.

I’m also a proud INFJ—meaning I’m wired to care deeply, listen intently, and spot your hidden potential faster than you can say ā€œpivot.ā€ My superpower is blending strategy with soul and experience, helping you align your business with your values, strengths, and long-term vision.

What Is JBG Office Hours All About?

This isn’t your cookie-cutter coaching hub. JBG Office Hours is an inspirational and very unassuming space for entrepreneurs, visionaries, and curious minds like you who want clear, actionable guidance without losing the heart of why they started in the first place. As a coach, I take pride in welcoming all kinds of founders from all walks of life though “misfits and underdogs” – those who weren’t born with a silver spoon or have a deep network of contacts are an extra passion point.

I work with:

  • Startups craving traction and clarity
  • Solopreneurs needing systems and sanity
  • Founders in transition who want a strategic co-pilot
  • Creatives, doers, and change-makers who don’t fit into neat little boxes

Whether you’re stuck at a crossroads or not knowing what to do, scaling a new venture, or craving structure around your big ideas, I offer custom coaching sessions designed to get you moving with clarity and confidence.

What You Can Expect Here

  • Practical wisdom born from real experience (and a few glorious missteps)
  • Warm, one-on-one coaching that’s tailored, not templated
  • Resources, reflections, and honest insights in this very blog to keep you inspired and aligned
  • The occasional pun, because life is too short for dry business advice šŸ˜‰

Let’s Build Something That Feels Like You

JBG Office Hours is not about hustling harder or slapping Band-Aids on broken business models. It’s about building something resilient, intuitive, and aligned with who you are. Business doesn’t have to feel like wearing someone else’s suit—it can (and should) fit like your favorite hoodie.

So take a deep breath. You’ve found a place where your messy middle, big dreams, and everyday questions are not just welcome—they’re the whole point.

Let’s make magic. I love helping others!

Best through these pixels,
John B. Graham
Founder, JBG Office Hours
