In this episode of Founders Future, with host Zach Young, Steph Darmanin joins the show to share her journey from a 20-year corporate career in sales, media, and marketing to becoming a performance coach for business owners and executives. A four-time best-selling author, facilitator, and brand strategist, Steph explains how her passion for personal development, creativity, and leadership naturally evolved into helping high achievers unlock sustainable growth without burnout.**

Steph breaks down her performance coaching philosophy, including her proprietary Dharma Code framework, and how she works with clients through longer-term programs designed to create lasting behavioral change. The conversation explores career transitions, personal branding, executive presence, and the importance of aligning values with daily action. Steph also shares how she builds her business through authentic connection—leveraging LinkedIn, Instagram, word-of-mouth, and in-person relationships—while outlining her vision for corporate workshops, retreats, and expanding her impact in 2026.
