Phil Okrend

Our guest Phil Okrend has undergone tremendous changes in his life, Although he was originally on the straight and narrow path out of college and into law school and a career as an attorney, his creative and entrepreneurial urges led him on a different path. The path began with starting and developing his own greeting card company, mixedblessing(www.mixedblessing.com), and eventually to becoming a certified life and business coach to help others live authentic and empowering lives.(www.steppingstonescoaching.com) Along the way, he has written and performed music, recorded 2 CD's, Dinner Notes and Emergence, A Meditative Journey Through the Seasons, www.myspace.com/philokrend. He has encouraged and watched his family blossom with their own creative talents. His wife, Elise is a wonderful pastel painter(www.eliseokrend.com), and son, Jordan is a gifted singer/songwriter/guitarist (www.jordanokrend.com) Phil believes that life is an evolving journey, and that if you are present and pay attention, life will take you exactly where you need to go, fully alive, and contributing to others with joy.
