The Long Story

I'm Julien, a husband, father of six incredible children, and an entrepreneur driven by a mission to inspire and connect. My mixed heritage and experiences living in Africa, Europe, and now the U.S. have shaped a unique perspective on diversity and inclusion, turning differences into connections.

​

Together with Mallorie, my wife, we founded Move Dance Family, one of Texas's top-ranked dance studios. With over a decade in operation, we've ignited a passion for dance in over 400 hearts, establishing a legacy of excellence, creativity, and community. Our studio's longstanding reputation has made it a beacon for dancers of all ages and backgrounds, nurturing talents and dreams. I also took on the leadership of "More Than Dancers," enhancing an online platform where dancers can grow, thrive, and connect across diverse experiences.

The Origins: A Leader in the Making

I was born in the Congo, raised in Belgium, forged in America. My whole life has been a journey of relentless growth, constant adaptation, and leadership earned the hard way. From basketball courts to classrooms, leadership wasn’t something I chased—it always found me.
 

Building a seven-figure dance studio taught me that leadership was about creating spaces where people thrive. But as success grew in my business, a harder battle emerged: I was respected at work, yet quietly struggling at home. My intensity made me successful professionally, but at home, that intensity left me burned out, disconnected, and feeling like a fraud.
 

The Turning Point: Discovering Gentle Rage

COVID forced me to stop running. That’s when I discovered the Warrior’s Way, a powerful leadership system specifically designed for married businessmen. But the method wasn’t widely accessible—only 60,000 men and women had experienced this transformation, and thousands more were left on the sidelines.

I took these proven principles, lived them fully, and then created my own way of delivering this life-changing system—Gentle Rage.
 

Gentle Rage is my unique method for guiding married entrepreneur dads who dominate in business but secretly struggle to lead powerfully at home. It’s designed to help men who find themselves either too gentle (hiding, holding back, playing small) or too raging (frustrated, angry, explosive).

Gentle Rage is the controlled intensity that lets you win at home without losing your power in business.
