Modern authors do so much more than authoring books, Tarot decks, and courses. They also maintain blogs, produce videos, hold speeches, and discuss relevant subjects on social media. They offer a holistic service that revolves around the value they labor to produce for their audience. In Stefan’s case, the value is enlightenment, the evolution of consciousness.
In his early twenties, Stefan backpacked through Australia, New Zealand, and Southeast Asia. At that time, he discovered enlightenment. After thirty years of studying the subject, he created an enlightenment blog, the Inspiration and Enlightenment Workshop, which ranks among the top 100 enlightenment websites worldwide.
After marrying, he transitioned into the corporate world as a business development manager in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. From designing and selling complex IT systems for telecommunication operators, he developed a knack for simplexity, the simplification of complex tasks. This allowed him to author The Eight Crafts of Writing — a methodology for story writing. Writing novels is as complex an undertaking as delivering telecommunication systems.
Recognizing the profound impact narratives can have on personal growth and understanding other people and cultures induced in him a passion for storytelling. His first published novella is a story about an honorable knight who struggles to navigate the temptations and ordeals of a not-so-honorable world.
Later in life, Stefan became a certified positive psychology coach. With over forty years dedicated to studying Tarot and the Tree of Life, Stefan has become an authority in psychological-enlightenment Tarot applications. His innovative Tarot deck, The Enlightenment Tarot, is based on an objective and holistic framework he derived from the Tree of Life.
Today, Stefan lives in the Philippines, where he continues his quest for enlightenment while embracing the serenity of island life. With a wealth of experience and a commitment to personal growth, Stefan invites others to join him on the journey toward psychological expertise, self-discovery, and enlightenment.
