Leslie Stein, BS, Coach, Full Circle Inspiration, Inc.
Leslie Stein loves a challenge, whether its running triathlons or taking lessons to master the flying trapeze, she doesnt know the meaning of the words I cant.
She decided early on to take the road less traveled, leading her to West Point after high school where she pursued a degree in Portuguese before being commissioned as a second lieutenant in the Army. She spent seven years as an Aviation officer flying CH-47D Chinook helicopters, including tours in Kosovo & South Korea.
After leaving the Army, Leslie had some unique jobs including professional organizer & TV news producer. Eventually she stumbled upon facilitation, a field she knew was meant for her! In 2008, she started her own company focused on inspiring groups & individuals to look for new perspectives when the ones they're stuck in just aren't working anymore.
In her spare time she is an avid penny picker-upper (or any found money, really!), starting The Penny Project as a way to pool found money & small donations for a bigger cause. With hundreds of people out there finding pennies with her, shes been able to collect over $3,300 to donate to local organizations.
Her cat, Shirley, appreciates when she finally takes a break to feed her a few treats & curl up for a nap on the couch!
