Who is Stefco?
Stefco is a holistic health consultant looking at his life situation from the point of view of holistic health; nutrition, exercise, sleep, emotions, and mindset. He loves to try new things and uses the signals he receives from his body to inform him that things are working or not working. He is physically active, takes responsibility for his own health, and tries to better himself every day through reading books on health, listening to podcasts, trying new health practices, and meeting new people working or interested in health.
Stefco knows full well how much misinformation is out there on nutrition, exercise, sleep, emotions and mindset, so he makes sure that he only listens to top-quality health folks who are living examples of what they preach and who have done all of the research and know all of the science. Stefco is curious, wanting to explore health in its fullness, and is active in the spiritual health community attending events and workshops at every possible corner. Stefco is very good at practising health on a budget and finds very innovated ways of being healthy in a nourishing, nutritious and cheap way.
He is a lover of health in all shapes and knows that he will rub off his mindset about responsible health onto you, which means that he will equip you with the understanding that you are fully responsible for your health. That’s right, not the medical professionals, but you, because he knows that you can’t outsource your health to any professional unless you want to join the already alarming statistics in Australia of heart disease, diabetes, mental health, obesity, immune disorders and hormone disorders. Holistic health is about living a life that means your health is in balance so that you don’t experience any disease and possibly reverse your diagnosis, and even get off medication! ( don’t discount this possibility, as holistic health is very powerful and can do wonders for you ).
Stefco is unique - his approach to holistic health is no medication, no doctors, no physiotherapist, no chiropractors, no remedial massages, and no general practitioners; none of these people have helped him build his repertoire of experiences to cultivate his holistic health lifestyle. What has built his health is choosing only the right people to listen to, to learn from the greats, such as Paul Chek, James Clear, and Anthony Robins, and then to extract from them the best practices that work effectively in our current society, with our current exposure and current western lifestyles. It is truly miraculous how your life changes when you bring discipline in what information you let in because the wrong information can program you negatively, and the right information can program you positively and transform your life.
Stefco has been working in holistic health for many years, and if there is such a word to describe his knowledge base, it is ‘experience’. There is so much misguidance and misinformation out there, and Stefco has put it all into practice. he knows the pits and holes you need to avoid, so he can direct you to look in the right places. If something đoesnt work, try something different; if that doesn’t work, try something else; and if that doesn’t work, try again until something works. When doctors don’t know what your problem is, they test medication, but when we don’t know, we test holistic health practices, so the downsides in trying medication are much worse, whereas trying holistic health mostly has only upsides. We’re letting your experience guide you, not fake science or so-called fake medical experts. Your experience is the most true thing that you can find in this world; it can give you the golden information you need to see life as it is and make leaps and bounds of progress with your health.
Why coaching?
"Either your habits are making you or breaking you, I choose the former.“
You can't be the architect of your habits so long as you are making compulsive decisions rooted in uncontrollable tendencies in your body, mind and emotions. The environmental toxins, laden both indoors and outdoors, as well as destructive commercial foods, are inescapable, and as such, it is prevalent to have a dysregulated nervous system and dysfunctional hormonal system. But all this has blinded you from reading the instructions manual on how to be a conscious human being. Conscious means you make decisions that are in your best interest, and not driven by compulsive tendencies. It is time to take holistic health into your own hands and claim your birthright to be a healthy human being.
Working with Stefco is like getting a smorgasbord of a personality; adventurous, spiritual, excited, empowering, vital, deep, open-minded, and ponderous. He is friendly, willing to get out of his own way to help you, and puts your problems as his own. His kind heart does not force you to make changes, but he teaches you that real change has a sacred and embodying experience that brings natural momentum in your life. Stefco is persistent and makes you see your roadblocks as opportunities, not as excuses. He also makes sure he communicates in an easy-to-understand way that makes sense to you. And lastly, if you don’t believe him, he teaches you to tap into your innermost intelligence to experience your own truth that is much more convincing than anything he can say.
Coaching with Stefco provides you with a safe, supportive and encouraging space to go into your health crisis and work as a team to access the depth of your holistic health. Holistic health can provide you with a breath of fresh air, knowing that all of the tools that you need to live a healthy life are in your own hands. When you cultivate this way of relating to your health, when problems arise, your mind has a solution, so you don’t have to worry about it; you can just put your knowledge to the test and make yourself healthy. Imagine having your health in your own hands, isn’t that the biggest relief you can have? Isn’t that the only thing that provides you with a natural assurance that no matter what happens in your life, your health is there? I know that health is not a luxury; it is your birthright, and nobody should have the power to take it from you for as long as you live.
Who is Stefco as a person?
Stefco has been on a health exploration journey since he was 25 years old, and as he is continuously updating his holistic health to improve his vitality, he is currently eating mostly organic certified fruits, nuts, seeds, honey and a little bit of dairy and vegetables, not to mention ceremonial grade cacao and decaffeinated coffee. He is not indoctrinated in his own beliefs, so he has the autonomy to eat anything any time, though chooses to eat foods that serve him, and his pleasurable deserts include affogato ( vanilla ice cream with espresso), honey with ceremonial grade cacao, and on the rare occasion a bit of salt and vinegar chips.
Stefco is currently training to swim the Rotness Channel Swim Solo in 2025, which is a 20 km open water ocean swim conducted every year in W.A crossing the water from Perth to the Rotness Islands. He designed his own program that involved improving his technique, speed, stamina, and breathing in the water to get ready for qualifying race day and, eventually, race day. He is practising yoga twice a day every day for his emotional stability and his sleep quality, and he is currently working for a food delivery company that delivers certified organic foods to the local and rural community of W.A.
Stefco reads almost every day, and he makes investments in his education both professionally and personally. He is currently studying Holistic Lifestyle Coaching 2 at Paul Chek Institute, and his goal is to complete all four levels to become Paul Chek Certified. In the extracurricular time that he has, he loves learning new things, meeting new people, and joining new spiritual communities. He lives a relatively simple life and gains joy in the moments throughout the day when he connects with himself, his work and other people and their work. Stefco is largely driven by his health values of vitality, sustainable energy, and sacred love in his mind, body, and emotions.
What you might not know about Stefco is that he lived without purpose for his life when he completed university and worked in the civil engineering profession. Working in this profession was his family’s dream but not his own. For much of this time, his eyes weren’t on the job but on the yearning inside of him to pursue his passions. Recognising he wasn’t igniting his passions, his health suffered. He experienced depression, social anxiety, paranoia, low-quality work and low self-esteem. Finally, he gathered the courage to quit his job, leaving his education behind him to pursue the health industry, personal development and personal training. Here onward, he promised himself to live his remaining life valuing health and his intuition. He loves what he does, and it gives him great pleasure to serve the community and you in your holistic health journey.
...message from Stefco
“Change doesn’t happen in a day, it doesn’t happen in a month, and it doesn’t happen in a year; it happens when you commit to a holistic healthy lifestyle for your lifetime. I’m saying you will drastically change your health in short and long time frames when it’s a change in your life values. Remember that cultivating a long-term mindset will pay long-term dividends to your happiness, health and joy, and you’ll become a strong, healthy and fearless person with a strong foundation. “
In my eyes, you are fully capable of manifesting the life of your dreams, utilising holistic health principles. I actually know this. I'm not just blowing smoke; let me explain. If you never had a journaling practice, and you spent four days of the week journaling, you can not conjure what one year will do to you to change who you are, let alone a lifetime of holistic health habits. Your identity will change, your embodiment will change, and your energy and mindset will change. You will have deeper access to your heart, and your spirit will emerge. It is truly phenomenal what a simple habit like journaling can do in the long term. But guess what?" Every single habit has the capacity to change who you are. " You don't know what your cooking will bring you until it is cooked, and so you need to give it time to stew before you check for taste. The taste will come, that’s for sure. I believe in you, and I believe that you are the most uniquely capable and beautiful soul. You deserve a beautiful life more than you can currently imagine. Your every cell is occupied by the divine within you, and I want to see you bring your life to the next level. Life is worth having a tremendous amount of energy because time is fixed, but energy is not and is in our hands, and true potential shines in the moment you are fully alive. Be your true self, and let holistic health be your foundation.
