Me? I'm a Harvard-educated leadership trainer and a certified personal coach. But really, this is about you...

YOU are not what you could be. What you could be is more than you can imagine.

Are you called to make a difference in the lives of others? If so, isn't it crucial for you to live into your highest aspirations for yourself? I mean, why play the game unless you give it your all?

Me? I'm a Harvard-educated leadership trainer and a certified personal coach. But really, this is about you...

YOU are not what you could be. What you could be is more than you can imagine.

Are you called to make a difference in the lives of others? If so, isn't it crucial for you to live into your highest aspirations for yourself? I mean, why play the game unless you give it your all?

But of course to become your highest self, you have to pay diligent attention -- to your strengths, your challenges, your mindset, and the behaviors that will manifest your potential, one day at a time.

What does that look like? Personal coaching (or leadership coaching -- I do both). Lots of folks are calling themselves coaches these days, but beware. What coaching is, at its best, is a holistic toolkit that helps you identify the pathways -- unique to you -- that will best express your highest potential.

Are you worth that investment? If so, contact me and let's just chat. No hard sell, just an exploration of possibilities.

I'm particularly drawn to folks who are interested in using their potential to heal the planet or its beings in some way. I spend considerable volunteer time working on issues of environmental sustainability and social justice, primarily as a certified facilitator with the nonprofit Pachamama Alliance.

In my spare time, I enjoy music (I sing in a swing-era jazz band), Pilates, meditation, spending time in nature, and most of all communing with my wife, Karen and my dog, Lucas. We divide our time between Seattle and Whidbey Island. Whidbey is where our souls reside. [less]

  Over the years I have attended numerous workshops and put on a few of my own. Steve knows how to put on a workshop. Our workshop was a model for how all workshops should be organized. As an entrepreneur coach, business coach, and personal coach, based in Seattle, Tacoma, Olympia I highly recommend Steve's workshops. The time will fly by and you will have results by the end.    [less]

  Thank you Steve for leading an excellent event. The way you had us change groups added a sense of freshness to the two hours, which just flew by. Examining our Core Values is a great method to help us guide our career paths.    [less]

  Steve did a masterful job of doing just what he promised, focusing us on what's important to us that can energize us regardless of what is going on in the economy. Thank you, Steve, for your 'Loving the Recession' Workshop.

  Steve got us energized and having fun right from the get-go. From there he kept us focusing on what is most important to us while meeting other folks who were discovering the same thing. It was fun, insightful and left me with action steps.

  I can tell that Steve is a skillful coach who helps his clients get traction and have fun while doing so.
