About
Hi, I'm Stephanie A. Pitoy.
Welcome to Sensei Red Lotus™.
Life—and every seismic shift it delivers—has been my greatest Sensei (teacher). From my roots in Hawai‘i to my reinvention in New York, each chapter has shaped the way I help others rise with clarity, resilience, and direction.
As a Transformational Life Coach, my role is to meet you exactly where you are in your life journey and help you move forward with alignment and purpose.
As a Corporate Culture Fixer, I partner with organizations to repair trust, rebuild accountability, and restore momentum using my proprietary framework, Circle Forward™: The Underbelly + The Kitchen Sink™—a humane, diagnostic-to-delivery method that uncovers what’s breaking beneath the surface and rapidly ships practical culture fixes with visible results.
Whether you’re an individual at a crossroads or a team in need of reset, I’m here to help you move from survival to sustainable growth.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Life Coach versus a Therapist?

Therapists focus on addressing mental health concerns and emotional issues, often exploring underlying causes and providing treatment plans.
What is Life Coaching?
Life coaching is a collaborative process where a Life Coach helps Clients identify their goals, overcome obstacles, and develop strategies to achieve a more fulfilling life.
Is Life Coaching right for me?

What happens during a Life Coaching Session?
Life Coaching Sessions typically involve exploring current situations, setting goals, identifying challenges, developing action plans, and tracking progress.
How long does the Life Coaching process take?
Life Coaching Sessions typically last 45 to 60 minutes each. Clients often meet with their Life Coach weekly or bi-weekly, though the frequency can vary based on individual needs and goals. The overall duration of a Life Coaching Engagement can vary significantly, ranging from a few months to a year or even longer, depending on the Client's goals and progress. The timeline for seeing results varies depending on the Client's goals and commitment, but consistent effort and regular sessions are key.
