Coaching with Steve Calc
I’m glad you made it here. Something in you knows it’s time for a change.
So who am I, and why did I walk away from a successful 15-year federal career to become a professional life coach?
A life coach helped me out of a dark place, and I want to offer others the kind of support that helped me find my way forward.
I was lost in the escape and fantasy of screens—video games, endless scrolling, anything that kept me from feeling like the outsider I was. Growing up queer in a place where I didn’t fit in, the digital world felt safer than the real one. But even as an adult, long after my circumstances changed, the patterns stayed.
Everything shifted when I moved across the country and—out of pure desperation—reached out to a coach specializing in screen addiction. That experience cracked me open. I discovered courage, independence, and curiosity. I began rebuilding my life in a way that was exciting and finally felt like me.
One turning point still stands out: donating hundreds of video games and consoles to a children’s hospital—two wagons full. Letting go of my past to help kids in tough situations find joy lit something in me.
That light hasn’t always stayed bright. I’ve lost it, dimmed it, forgotten it, found it again. But it taught me something essential: everyone’s fire can be rekindled.
Today, I help people reignite their spark — with compassion, clarity, and the kind of nudge that helps you move faster than fear wants you to.
WHAT I DO
I help people reconnect with themselves — especially when they feel:
- Unsure of who they are anymore (or who they ever were)
- Burnt out from doomscrolling and digital escapism
- Trapped in “shoulds,” routines, or the grind
- Disconnected from joy, passion, or purpose
- Stuck in cycles that feel numbing, repetitive, or small
- Hungry for something real, magical, meaningful, or new
- Tired of hiding, shrinking, or coasting through life
If any of that hits, you’re my person.
My work focuses on identity, transitions, burnout recovery, time reclamation, and reawakening what makes you feel alive.
HOW I COACH
My coaching blends:
🔸 Warm presence + real human connection (I see you. People tell me they’ve never felt so understood.)
🔸 Creative tools — metaphor, imagery, intuitive exploration
🔸 Tarot & astrology when you want deeper symbolic insight
🔸 Action-oriented strategies to break cycles and reclaim your time
🔸 Deep curiosity, emotional safety, and a healthy dose of weirdness
This work helps you see what logic alone can’t — the parts of you waiting to wake up.
Most growth happens between sessions, and I support you with check-ins, challenges, and personalized insights.
WHO THRIVES WITH ME
You thrive with me if you:
- Are curious about embracing your weirdness instead of tucking it away
- Feel like an outsider or “other” in some way
- Want more courage, aliveness, and direction
- Want to explore identity, purpose, or who you’re becoming
- Are sick of days blurring together
- Want joy to spark again — creatively, emotionally, spiritually
- Are ready to be fully yourself
- Are willing to explore, experiment, and build momentum
WHAT YOU GET
Working with me gives you:
- A nonjudgmental space to discover who you’re becoming
- Clarity, momentum, and practical tools you can use every day
- A coach who understands overwhelm, addiction patterns, queer identity, and reinvention
- Accountability that respects your boundaries and challenges your limits
- Check-ins, personalized exercises, and curated insights
- A months-long journey—not just isolated sessions
PRICING
I’m certifying through the Co-Active Training Institute — one of the world’s leading coaching organizations. While I’m in this growth stage, my rates are intentionally accessible.
Sliding Scale:
$50–$75 per session (50 minutes), based on your circumstances.
Typical coaching rates are $150–$200/session.
When certification completes, my rates will shift — but not for clients already working with me.
I also reserve a few financial-need slots, especially for people impacted by situations like the government shutdown or periods of instability. If you feel called to work with me, ask.
INVITATION
If something inside you is nudging you right now… trust it.
This is how change starts — a tiny spark that can lead to an inferno with the right nutrients.
Let’s talk. Book a “What’s Next” conversation with me.
And if you’re local, let’s get a coffee. (Seriously — it’s the fastest way to my heart.)
Let’s figure out who you’re becoming.
And one last thing:
I have a soft spot for Bigfoot and the paranormal. What’s your favorite cryptid?
