–What Clients Are Saying–

 

I went to see Steph talk at Creative Mornings and emailed her about 15 minutes after the event. Her talk not only inspired me, but sparked immediate action, like I knew I just had to connect with her and get her help. I was a struggling creative that needed someone who wanted to see me succeed and could guide me on that path.
— Lisa Quine, Founder & Muralist

My life is different because I now have a definite direction. When I came to Steph I was overwhelmed with divorce and starting over. My mind was preoccupied with emotion and I couldn’t see clearly the vision for my future life or business. Her coaching method helped me see through all of that and build the foundation for my business and life.
— Gigi Evans, Founder & Spiritual Guide

Steph’s coaching style is why I hired her and not someone else. I appreciate her ability to dig deep and have truthful and authentic conversations. I also really appreciate her ability to be a reflective practitioner and communicate her trials and challenges, take responsibility for her humanness, and not be afraid to set boundaries.
— Amy Derethik, Founder & Designer

 
 

The Brands / Methods I’ve founded to help women go from overthinking, wishing, living in frustration–
to becoming the Creative Directors of their own lives.

At The Creative Shift, our core interest is in supporting the individual to mine, discover and put into action their authentic creative power and help you see what’s in the way of your own clarity.

At The Slow Startup, we’re developing a new model for the startup world– one that has a foundation in calming and caring for the body first and practicing business second.

At The Cleveland Flea, we’ve worked within a local economy to study and support the powerful connections between creativity, commerce and community. While running this business, I got a front seat to just how destructive scarcity is to community, to our bodies, and to creativity.
