Our Origins
OUR APPROACH: LEADERSHIP AS A CRAFT

Creating the conditions for change is both an art and a practice. We recognize the stakes are high and the challenges are complex. That's why we focus on a practice-based, learning and skill-focused approach that equips leaders and practitioners with tools to drive real, meaningful change.

Last summer, I had the opportunity to participate in the Leading Innovation for Systems Change certificate through Forge. It was a dynamic and impactful learning experience. The program brought together a thoughtful, curious cohort of leaders and created space for real, honest conversations about complexity, power, and systems change. It gave me the confidence and practical tools to lead in spaces that feel messy, uncertain, and deeply human.

Working with Dr. Jeff St. John over the years—as a coach, consultant, and facilitator—has been one of the most meaningful professional relationships I’ve had. Jeff has a rare ability to hold space for both personal growth and organizational transformation, and his approach has helped me see myself more clearly as a leader. Through his Enneagram coaching, I’ve been able to unlock parts of my leadership identity that were previously hidden and underdeveloped. His insight, humility, and presence have been instrumental in my own journey.

Jeff has also supported our team at FearIsNotLove through some of our most complex systems challenges, including how we engage men and boys in conversations about violence, and how we grow as a leadership team in the face of change. Jeff doesn’t offer quick fixes; he asks the right questions, builds trust, and helps people find their own way forward. I’m grateful for his partnership and proud to recommend his work to anyone serious about systems change and personal leadership.
