I’ve Been Where You Are…

Stuck. Unclear. unseen. I know what it’s like to feel like you’re made for more — but not know how to unlock it. That’s why I’ve spent the last decade helping thousands of people transform their mindset, step into their message, and take bold action toward their dreams.

I went from unknown to speaking on stages, mainstream media and podcasts, teaching people how to make more impact, income and influence by shifting their mindset and sharing their message with the world.

I come from very humble beginnings. I grew up in low-income housing surrounded by drugs and crime. As a young person, I was headed down the wrong path. I've lost friends and mentees to gun violence.

But it was mentors, sports, and curiosity that changed my life. I realized the power of mindset, goals, and consistent action. It was other people's stories that inspired me to be more and do more. That's why I believe in the power of telling YOUR story and using it to inspire others and lead them to create the life or business they desire.

And I will teach you how to do the same!

You may be thinking, "Why should I hire Coach Stone to speak at my event or invest in his programs or products?"

And you should! You shouldn't trust anyone who makes claims on

Not only have I been coaching people to unleash their potential and make a greater impact in the world for more than 15 years, I continue to invest in my own development. My goal is to teach you what I learn through my mistakes, from my coaches, and through the experiences of the clients I have coached, so that you don't go through the pain or waste thousands of dollars on things that don't work.

Growing up in low-income housing, surrounded by drugs and crime and having lost friends to gun violence, I witnessed how the lack of clarity, hope and discipline can lead people down a path of self-destruction

It was my grandmother's belief in me, coaching, and sports that changed my life and opened up my potential, and that's why I am on a mission to be a guide to others to change their lives and the lives of others.

People believed in me when I didn't believe in myself, and because of it I transformed my life, and this is why I am so passionate about helping entrepreneurs like you do the same.

I believe Entrepreneurs change the world, and I want to help them become world changers!
