Stephanie Schmid, Executive Coach • Mindset Shifter

Most people know exactly what they want to change. What stops them isn't knowledge — it's taking the first step.

Stephanie Schmid spent more than three decades in leadership roles across the tech industry before becoming a certified executive coach. She has worked with hundreds of professionals — especially ambitious women — who are stuck between where they are and where they want to be. Her coaching focuses on the patterns that keep people playing small: self-doubt, poor boundaries, reactive habits, and the false belief that circumstances have to change before they can.

Her book Take That Step: Inspirational Thoughts grew out of real conversations with real clients. It's a collection of short, practical reflections designed to help you build a more positive life, manage your time with intention, shift your mindset, strengthen your relationships, and change the way you talk to yourself.

Stephanie holds a PCC from the International Coaching Federation, along with BCC, CEC, PMP, and SPHR credentials. She is Boardwise-certified for board service, a Certified Change Practitioner and a PrinciplesYou certified coach. She splits her time between Utah and Arizona and thrives in nature—running, road biking, hiking, swimming, and traveling to scuba dive
