“I’m reaching out with a little story of gratitude for your advice during our last meeting to focus on building an emergency fund before anything else. I heeded this advice and have saved $26k towards my goal of $43k. This emergency fund was helpful today as my company laid off 20% of its workforce. Fortunately, the RIF did not impact my role, but it reinforced the importance of the fund and helped me keep my nerves in check during a very stressful time.”

IT Manager, MI
“I was struggling with confidence in my personal life and navigating the many changes in my professional life. I needed to talk through challenges with work relationships, personal relationships and finding peace. With Steve’s help, I was able to focus on the priorities in my life and spend time and energy on what I value most. Changing my perspective allowed me to be much more open and honest about who I am and what is most important to me. Steve is gifted in his ability to challenge his clients while nourishing the growth.”

Account Manager, MD
“As a leader of a thriving business, I was finding it hard to stay on course with all the distractions the divorce brought. Steve was able to grasp my entire situation quickly and offer effective strategies and ideas that got me back on track. He was able to fill key gaps that my attorney and therapist didn’t see. His coaching is a great asset to me, my family, and my business.”
Gareth K.
Business Owner, MD
“My wife & I have worked with Steve for many years. From the very beginning, he helped us view our finances differently by creating innovative strategies to allow us to create family memories without jeopardizing our needs. He is honest, and sides with his clients to help them meet their goals. He is passionate in this work and is not afraid to challenge our thinking and biases. He is knowledgeable around all facets of finances, and is a great resource.When I became a CEO, Steve offered to serve as my executive coach. I had never tried coaching, but was confident in Steve’s ability. The coaching experience has been transformational in many ways. I believe he has a gift, and this gift comes from his desire to truly understand and help others.”
Chris B., CAE
CEO, VA
“I met Steve Schleupner in 2010 while presenting a productivity training at the financial firm in which he worked as a manager. I immediately noticed his level of authenticity and transparency, which is unusual in that industry. After the training, Steve expressed a desire to go deeper into personal development, eventually hiring me as his coach. In the ensuing 7 years, I have come to know Steve as a rare servant-leader. This means he puts other people first. He offers clients a level of understanding, integrity and care that is uncommon and powerful. I have seen him develop new concepts and models for growth that are not only forward thinking, but uniquely life-altering for the people he serves. I truly believe that anyone fortunate enough to meet Steve and his extraordinary work will experience a positive life-enhancing experience.”
S. D’Annunzio
President & Executive Coach, NY
“Working with Steve made a huge difference in how I was processing my divorce. I had been refusing to accept what was happening and wasting tons of energy trying to deny what had already transpired. With Steve’s help I was able to stop making myself miserable and to start focusing on building a new life.”
N. Baker
Sales Consultant, CA
“Steve was one of the most caring and empathetic coaches I have ever worked with. After my wife of over 30 years filed for divorce, I routinely found myself curled up in a ball on the floor during the first few weeks, unable to find my next logical and emotional step out. After finding Steve and working with him for a few weeks, I was able to gain clarity and perspective that I did not know existed. I now feel empowered to move forward and begin to thrive.”
Ira J.
Insurance Agent, GA
“I’m just reflecting on what I am grateful for this past year and you are at the top of the list. I truly don’t believe anyone has helped me more than you have, not just this year, but for years. You managed to change my whole perspective and gave me tools that are helping me navigate the most difficult period of my life. I shutter to think how this divorce might be going if I hadn’t found your podcast and in turn spent the time with you in individual coaching. I’m not overstating to say that I am eternally grateful to you.”
Steve C.
Business Owner, WI
“My divorce brought to the surface many challenges that I’ve struggled to overcome throughout my life. Steve’s unique experiences with divorce, both personal and professional, provided a fresh, educated perspective on how I could shift out of the habits that kept me trapped in a stagnant cycle of my own victimhood. But what really made Steve a true teacher for me was his ability to blend his high emotional intelligence with an honest vulnerability. This opened the door for me to relate with his experiences and stir the creative pot for new solutions.”
