n 2021 and 2022, I had the privilege of being coached by LaSchwann Killens in the Warrior Path program at Boulder Crest Arizona. This program is designed to help veterans like myself work through PTSD and strive for post-traumatic growth. LaSchwann was an amazing coach throughout the program. He was caring, peaceful, and assertive, exactly the kind of presence needed in this work. He created a safe space for us to be vulnerable and challenge ourselves. One moment in particular stands out and has stuck with me ever since. We were doing a blindfolded archery exercise, and I had a rock under my foot causing me discomfort. Yet, I said nothing. After the exercise, LaSchwann began his coaching debrief. At the end, he turned to me and said, "Now, when were you going to say something about that rock under your foot?" He then went on to explain the importance of advocating for myself and communicating my needs, even in seemingly small situations. That lesson has resonated with me every single day. LaSchwann's ability to identify that subtle moment and turn it into a powerful teaching point is a testament to his coaching skills. He has a knack for recognizing those unspoken struggles and helping you find your voice. I highly recommend LaSchwann as a coach to any veteran seeking support and growth. He embodies the qualities of an exceptional mentor and truly cares about the well-being of those he serves. More...

10/5 stars. LaSchwann helped me sort through two of the most challenging times in my life: struggles with post-traumatic stress disorder and navigating a major change in career fields. One thing I highly value with LaSchwann is is brevity and clarity. He doesn't pull punches and will tell you the hard facts others might water down. Absolutely recommend his services and would seek them out again in the future. More...

Back in 2009 we were deployed to Iraq. I went through a very difficult time with a traumatic personal experience. Chief (Casper) was extremely supportive. He gave me guidance and a shoulder to cry on while also giving me the space to cope and seek counseling to help through my situation. He's always been calm and collected and has constantly made himself readily available for anyone under his charge that needed guidance or advice. More...

I am so much farther along after working with LaSchwann. I initially began working with him for some career coaching, then transitioned into business start up coaching.
Now I am in an organization aligned with my priorities, where I feel a sense of belonging and I went from a business idea to a launched product on a couple online retail sites. He was very patient, thoughtful, and had questions I may never have considered asking myself. Super excited others have an opportunity to work with him.

While LaSchwann and I connected in a peer setting, it was immediately apparent that his authenticity and impeccable communication skills allowed for a much deeper connection that has contributed a mentoring/ coaching companionship.
Through this relationship, I have been able to challenge long help belief systems and shift perspective, allowing for a more solution focused approach to life and the struggles it offers. I am grateful for our relationship and will continue to seek his mentorship.

A very satisfied client
Before working with LaSchwann with his program I had less focus on goals. I am able to focus more and my spouse has recognized some of the changes I am making for the better, based on my personal goals.
Going into our initial sessions I was unfamiliar with the coaching process and LaSchwann was able to explain it and add clarity making me more comfortable. LaSchwann's style of coaching was very helpful in ensuring I did not feel judged during our time together. Having accommodations with developing goals to focus on while building structure and routine along with our weekly sessions. An unexpected benefit was completing a goal I hadn't expected to complete: the momentum from other established and completed goals allowed me to the space and energy to focus on what I would like rather than what utility I can bring, and celebrate the win. Focusing on improving one thing, led to improvement of other things. After working with LaSchwann it is easier to engage and voice my ideas, wants, and needs with my loved ones. I thank LaSchwann for this coaching experience.
-A very satisfied client!

What do you love most about your job?
I love supporting others with their desire for growth, change and goal setting. Coaching is a powerful tool to assist people with clearing paths to their future selves and desires. Being selected to work with someone is an honor for me, to know they are allowing me to go on a journey of discovery and growth is so amazing.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I began my coaching business so I can support more people directly in the areas they want help with. While working for a larger coaching organization is good for some, where they can concentrate on a specific approach to coaching within a specific organization to meet their needs. I am enjoying meeting people where they are and coaching them based on their desires, rather than "just" the organizations desired outcomes. It's always about the client.
Why should our clients choose you?
I work to not should on anyone. My hope is a client will see my profile and allow us the opportunity to set up a free discovery session, to see if we are a great fit. I am not the best coach for everyone and I will not accept a client if I do not believe I can support their needs and goals.

Career Investigation/Discovery Coaching
Rather than approaching career from a place of moving up or moving on, we work through details beyond just the "job." I coach people considering career changes inside and beyond their current work situation, transitioning career industries to new ones and entrepreneurship as options. We work collaboratively to identify the desires of the individual, identify the why for the change, and create specific crafted goals to attain the results sought.
Leadership Coaching
The leadership coaching is geared specifically to the mid-level to supervisory-level leader wanting to increase their skills. We work collaboratively to identify challenge areas, leadership style investigation, and ways to leverage the skills you already have to make positive impacts right away. Additionally, we will identify areas you personally want to improve within your leadership tool kit (soft skills and hard skills) and create goals.
Clarity, Goal Setting and Accountability Coaching
Not sure where to start? That’s exactly where we begin. This coaching service is ideal if you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about your next steps — whether in life, career, or personal growth. Together, we’ll explore what’s really going on beneath the surface, untangling the confusion and clarifying the patterns, challenges, or choices in front of you. From there, we’ll identify a few high-impact goals that make sense for where you are right now — not just what sounds good on paper. You'll walk away with a realistic, motivating plan and the kind of accountability that works for you — whether that’s straight-shooting check-ins or a gentler, collaborative rhythm. This is a space for honest reflection, clarity, and forward momentum.
Entrepreneurial and Non-Profit Start-up Coaching
If you are new to starting a business or non-profit and want coaching to help put things into actionable steps, this is a great service for you. This service supports people working to initiate a new business idea, investigate how to start a non-profit and better understand the why and how. We collaborate on your specific ideas and desires to create well crafted goals and timelines to attain those goals.
