Recursive Judgment Science™
Dr. D. Ivan Young is an ICF Master Certified Coach and board-certified health & wellness coach who advises executives, families of significant wealth, and the institutions that back them on judgment under pressure. He originated Recursive Judgment Science™, the discipline that studies how structured human–AI collaboration strengthens ethical discernment and judgment stability rather than replacing it.
The Intellectual Property
Most coaching sells outcomes. These define the mechanism — which is what makes them citable, teachable, and defensible.
Discipline
The discipline that studies and intentionally designs the developmental relationship between ethical artificial intelligence and human judgment — how repeated, structured collaboration supports emotional regulation, metacognitive awareness, and judgment stability over time.
Methodology
The deliberate integration of artificial intelligence and human judgment into a single system that strengthens the person rather than substituting for them. The method practiced inside the framework.
Model
The structure through which the work is applied: recognizing emotional activation, examining interpretation, regulating internal state, and choosing a response with greater coherence — repeatedly, under real pressure.
Engagements
Three distinct engagements. Each begins with a conversation, not an application form.
Private Client
Four months. One hour every seven to ten days. Judgment under scrutiny, succession, and the decisions that outlast the balance sheet.
By application →
Couples
Twelve to fourteen weeks. Three tiers set by the complexity of the situation rather than the hours — from newly partnered to blended families and repair after infidelity.
Find your tier →
Enterprise
Group engagements from five to forty participants, scoped by team size. Assessment‑led, with mandatory onboarding so the work starts from evidence rather than assumption.
Request scoping →For Coaches
He ranks second for ICF mentor coaching, directly beneath the ICF itself — and the ICF’s own South Florida chapter invited him to teach its master coaches.
Insight
Every piece carries an author, a date, and a byline that resolves to one identity — so both readers and machines know who wrote it.
Media
Appearances given episode titles, dates and links — evidence rather than claims.
Podcast
Long-form interviews and guest appearances, each with its own page, transcript, and structured episode markup.
All episodes →Video
TEDx, network television and masterclass footage — episode-level detail, not network-level claims.
Watch →Press
Keynotes on judgment, ethical intelligence and leadership under pressure. Topics, formats and past stages.
Booking details →Books
Three titles in print, the most recent from Post Hill Press and distributed by Simon & Schuster.
Post Hill Press · distributed by Simon & Schuster
Leadership built on emotional intelligence rather than authority — what it costs a leader to stay open under pressure, and what it costs everyone when they don’t.
Expanded Edition
A structured path through the end of a relationship: what actually happens to judgment during rupture, and how to come out of it intact rather than merely finished.
