Over the years, I’ve worked with many LGBTQ+ creators and change-makers who were essentially all looking for the same thing: Acceptance.As LGBTQ+ people, we’ve had to learn to show up in the world and love ourselves even when parents, society, religion, and governments didn’t make us feel seen, worthy, or safe. We tend to seek others like us whom we can trust. My lived experience helps me coach other LGBTQ+ people in a unique way that no one else can.I help you go from confusion and uncertainty to accomplishment — in alignment with your purpose and direction. As a MindMap Mastery Neuro-Coach, I specialize in the area of behavioural change relating to lifestyle and transformation. I have been studying personal growth, and well-being, and advocating for LGBTQ2+ rights and inclusion since 1992.If you’re a struggling creator or change-maker, wondering how you can make a difference, create a thriving business, and enjoy happiness, peace of mind, and greater freedom, I can help.☞ Here's how we can work together: https://darrenstehle.com/coaching/

When I meet someone new I like to ask, "What do you want most?"Their first answer is usually never what they most deeply desire. ​Ask yourself right now, "What do I want most?"Then ask yourself "Why do I want that (insert your answer)." Ask "Why" again of each new, deeper insight until you really feel your "true why."Let's bring your strengths and creativity fully into the world so you can achieve more than you ever thought possible. Here's how I can support you: http://eatmovebe.com/work-with-me
