Business & Life Coaching
Career & Life Coach for Professionals Ready for What’s Next
You have built a career and a life that work on paper. Coaching is for the moment you ask what comes next — and want a straight, structured conversation about getting there.

The Problem
Successful, busy, and stuck
From the outside, things look fine. The calendar is full, the career is established, the responsibilities get handled. But “fine” is not the same as moving in a direction you chose, and being busy is not the same as making progress on what actually matters to you.
Coaching gives that problem a regular, honest hour — someone whose only job in the conversation is your goals, your decisions, and what you said you would do last time.
Fit
Who this is for
- Established professionals who can invest in their own development
- People at a career or life crossroads who want to think it through properly
- Business owners and leaders who carry decisions alone and want an outside sounding board
- Anyone ready to set clear goals — and be held to them
Fit
Who this is not for
- Anyone looking for licensed therapy or counseling — coaching is not a substitute for either (see the note below)
- Anyone who wants advice handed to them rather than a conversation that does the work
How It Works
Starting is straightforward
- Complete the short intake form and book an introductory fact-finding call. Your answers go to Tim before the call, so the conversation starts with context, not small talk.
- The call. Where you are, where you want to be, and whether coaching is the right fit — both ways. Free, confidential, and no pressure either way.
- Choose a package. One-on-one or group coaching — see the Pricing page for how each is structured.
- Ongoing coaching by phone. Regular one-on-one calls with agendas and follow-ups between sessions, so progress does not depend on willpower alone.

Questions
Asked often
Is coaching the same as therapy?
No. Tim Steffen is a coach, not a licensed therapist or counselor, and coaching is not therapy. Coaching is forward-looking work on goals, decisions, and follow-through. If you are looking for licensed mental-health care, a licensed therapist is the right professional — and this site will not pretend otherwise.
How do sessions work?
Coaching is one-on-one, by phone, so clients can be anywhere in the country. Each call has an agenda, and there are follow-ups between sessions.
How do I start?
Complete the short intake form and book an introductory fact-finding call on the Book a Call page. Tim reviews your intake answers before the call.
What does it cost?
Package structures are on the Pricing page. The introductory call itself is free.
