Testimonials

I want to thank you, Stoicess, for the coaching and teachings you so willingly give.

I struggled at work with my leadership skills. Especially the different generations and personalities mixed in a large group to manage. With your guidance, Stoicess, I was able to find the common ground with my sanity and prosper in my career. I am now a looked-to leader for the development of others under and above me as well as a strong stoic-minded person that enjoys the days of work.

What is "Blended" Coaching?
Blended coaching is a flexible, hybrid development approach that combines in-person, one-on-one, interaction with a human, while the AI coach helps with goal setting, performance improvement, and reflection. Unlike a typical one-size-fits-all training program, my AI coaching resource, Stoicess-AI: SolomonGPT (Solomon), assists my team in tailoring guidance to YOUR specific needs, challenges, and goals. This flexible "Blended" method improves YOUR performance faster than traditional methods.
What Happens After The FREE One-Hour Private Strategy Session?
You'll work on your Customized Development Plan alone. However, if interested, I do offer "Blended Coaching" where you work with my team and Solomon on an ONGOING BASIS to assist you in achieving your goals. (See below:  “What Is Your Pricing After The FREE One-Hour Private Strategy Session?”)

Of my 22 published books, two are workbooks that my colleagues enjoy:
  • Leadership with Guiding Principles Puzzle Workbook - A Leadership Development Workbook - Philosophy Leadership Coach® Training Method II: Partnerships On The Rocks Volume 22 (The workbook combines two enduring sources of knowledge:
    Stoic Leadership Principles
    and
    God’s Timeless Guiding Principles
    presented through an interactive puzzle-based learning experience.
  • 4 Months To Career Wisdom and Understanding Workbook: Partnerships on the Rocks Volume 7 (The workbook provides real-life situations faced at work and guidance on how to address)
----
A third book that draws attention is my Acronym book:
  • "Philosophy Leadership Coach – Method Book I: Partnerships on the Rocks Volume 18" (The book uses acronyms to teach behaviors)
    Here are a few Methods in the book:
    B-A-L-A-N-C-E Zone (TM)
    R-O-C-K O-F G-O-D M-I-N-D Leader (TM)
    T-R-U-S-T-E-D  F-R-I-E-N-D Leader (TM)

Lastly, know my teachings are based on a simple model I developed called
S-T-O-I-C Storytelling®
(S) Situation: What you faced.
(T) Teaching: Bible's Guidance (ex: Jesus & Apostle Paul) and Stoic Virtues.
(O) Outcome: What you felt immediately following the event.
(I) Illuminate: What you felt later about yourself after thinking about the event (an understanding or spiritual awareness).
(C) Character trait you improved.

How Do You Protect My Data When Using Stoicess-Ai: SolomonGPT?
DATA SECURITY:
 
 1. An individual, unique code is assigned to each client for my team's use when interacting with "Stoicess-Ai: SolomonGPT" (Solomon). Thus, Solomon receives no personal data regarding the client. Note that the client does NOT interact with Solomon - Only my team interacts with Solomon.
 
 2. My Stoicess-Ai platform which houses all my Stoicess-Ai agents (i.e., Stoicess-Ai- SOLOMON, Stoicess-Ai- SAVVY, Stoicess-Ai- SENTINEL, AND Stoicess-Ai- SAVANT) operate on a "business-grade" chatbot platform -  Amazon Web Services (AWS) - for its underlying client infrastructure, specifically relying on AWS US East paired with the Pinecone vector database to power and host my Stoicess-Ai agents. Data are handled securely and not used to train public AI models. Any information given to my Stoicess-Ai Agents remains private and is isolated.

Do You Give To Charity?
Yes. My company donates 10% Gross Proceeds,  AND 100% Book Royalties, to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Thus, While We Train Together, We’ll BOTH Be Helping To Support God’s Children At St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

  • “Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these, my brethren, ye have done it unto me.” Jesus Christ

  • “[F]or God loveth the cheerful giver.” Apostle Paul

           “God helps those who help Children.”, Lori Stith
How Does Stoicess Ai: Solomon Differ from the Competition?
Solomon is trained by Steve Blackwell, PhD, Atty, Pharmacist, and me. We anchored "Stoicess Ai: Solomon" (Solomon), providing him with structure to guide his behavior. He knows what to say, why, and within the constraints we taught him. He also knows his boundaries, ensuring that his learning and adaptation should never compromise our Christian values nor yours.

Solomon’s anchoring is based on the following material to inform his choices:
· The Bible
 · Stoic Principles
 · My Books (22 books published currently)
 · My Posts (200+)
 · My Podcasts (200+)
 · My Games (100+)
 · And as my writings continue, so does Solomon’s training
