Nick Prefontaine
Coach / Speaker
Imagine being told your son is probably not going to be able to walk, talk or eat on his own ever again. Take a moment to sit with that. What would you do? Nick teaches the same system that he used to not only walk but run out of the hospital less than 90 days after his accident. The S.T.E.P. system. The STEP system will help you make it through to the other side of your trauma, life challenge or crisis so you can thrive with the rest of your life. Once you master this system there will be no limit to what you can accomplish and overcome in your life.
