Based in Santa Rosa California and Maui, He is a lead facilitator at the COR experience as well as a men’s coach focusing on relationships and communication and is fluent in the arts of intuition.
Our conversation revolves around the importance of men reintegrating back into their healthy masculinity by tapping back into tribe and rites of passages and the ways we can access them through transformational work and beyond so we may show up fully amidst a modern society that has often lost these ancient ways as the impact of not having them becomes more and more apparent in the world, how taming our inner restrictive voice of fear through healing our wounds and tapping into our core humanity in community can vastly increase our creative flow state, Steven's unique take on intuition through accessing information from connected source energy, Pragmatic ways to navigate gracefully in partnerships and more.
