the quick brief on who i am and what i do.
zachary tyler davidson — los angeles, california. 27.
i run heliotrope, a consciousness technology practice for founders. i help people see the trick they're playing on themselves — so they can finally move.
youngest member of the magic castle at 13. spent 15 years studying how attention works, how perception can be directed, how audiences fool themselves.
then i built a company and learned how it all breaks. raised millions, burned out on the exact thing i thought would make me happy, and eventually learned to see the water i was swimming in.
now i use that experience to help founders navigate the same territory.
heliotrope has three verticals:
- partners — 1:1 coaching for founders at critical inflection points
- media — content that rewards attention (writing, podcasts, production)
- capital — angel investing and advisory equity in magical people
- advising founders through heliotrope partners
- writing "the heliotropic turn" — codifying the coaching method
- building the library of alexandria at heliotrope.world
