Transitions aren’t endings— they’re invitations to become who you truly are.

Creating transformation from transitions requires letting go of old identities and behaviors to discover what’s needed now. The catch is, our default is to keep doing what’s worked in the past.

Helping clients through the uncertainty of trying something new and encouraging them to push their limits in outdoor activities has given me years of practice helping others replace ineffective thoughts, beliefs, and actions with new approaches that work better. During the Great Recession, I applied those lessons to transform my own life, shifting from a stereotypical unemployed mid-50s man to living a life I had only dreamed of. Now, as a coach, I draw on these and other experiences, along with coaching and transformational training, to guide clients through retirement, career shifts, and personal reinvention with clarity, purpose, and confidence.

Testimonials

  • “When I began working with Steve, I wanted to understand what to do after retirement. After collaborating with Steve, I realized I had been asking the wrong question. Now the question I’m asking is, ‘Who do I want to be?’”

    H.Y. - Geneva, Switzerland

  • "Talking to an unbiased third party and reconnecting with my core values by identifying and refining them helped clarify what I want and don’t want, both now and in the future.”

    M.F. - Central Mexico

  • I'd been retired for almost a decade when I realized I still hadn’t figured out how to spend my time. I was overextended and resenting some volunteer commitments while also feeling like I wasn’t doing things I thought I should. Working with Steve helped me sort out what really mattered and what I truly wanted to do. If you want to start doing what matters most to you, call Steve.

    Rob Brooks - Retired Accountant, Farmer, Beekeeper, Musician, Linguist, Skier, Biker, and Community Volunteer

  • “I came to the first session so scared of retirement that I couldn’t imagine a life worth living without my work. Now I’m starting to believe it's possible to be happy without working at the WTO.”
