We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Steven Celi a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Steven, thanks for joining us today. Can you open up about a risk you’ve taken – what it was like taking that risk, why you took the risk and how it turned out?
I’ve made a few bold moves in my life. I call them my courageous leaps of joy.
First leap was attempting to train myself to dunk at 5’10”. Not only did that accomplish a childhood dream, it completely removed all my limiting beliefs. it taught me believing is seeing (not the other way around). This journey led to my spiritual awakening and self discovery path.
In corporate, on paper, I was winning — good job, steady income, future “secured.” But my soul was dying. I felt meant for more but felt completely lost, no entrepreneurial experence. I took the leap and ended becoming a full time content creator for myself and clients.
Seeking more community and alignment i had a two day trip to California planned. The second i landed i felt the deepest excitement in my body and literally never came back to FL. Despite all the logic, thinking and fears, i followed the excitement. 3 years later I’m a leader of a large community and have more success I could’ve ever planned for.
2024 I was building a digital marketing company and we were having fantastic results yet i was feeling the same call once again. I was let go from that company and that’s when I finally fully stepped into full time performer mode. I had the best months as an Energy Coach, my best art was created and now I feel more rooted in my own truth with direction in purpose.
I don’t jump because I’m fearless.
I jump because joy is my compass.
And every time I’ve followed it, I’ve landed exactly where I’m meant to be.
It’s not only where I land but who i’m being in the moment.
It’s about BEING THE ENERGY you wish to experience now

Steven, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
For over last 10 years, I chased peak performance through vertical jump training. I went from barely touching the rim to dunking. That journey taught me something deeper than athleticism:
Mastering your energy unlocks everything.
Not just your body.
Not just your business.
Your *entire field* shifts when you align with truth.
I was able to build a business around my passion.
My YouTube channel amassed over 13 million views
and i’ve helped countless people activate their highest frequency
I love helping conscious entrepreneurs, high performers, and creators who are done pushing through burnout and ready to *move through energy.*
💥 What I Do
I help you:
* Rewire your nervous system to feel safe in success
* Release subconscious blocks to money, expression, and visibility (Using NLP and somatic techniques)
* Align with your *true frequency* so clients, opportunities, and impact flow in
I currently have a 90-day Energy Activation System for private clients and just launched my online community called the Quantum Academy — a program that blends business, mindset, and energy work to build aligned income streams from your soul.
I also create music as a rapper, host my own podcast and love acting in comedy skits.
### 🌟 What Sets Me Apart
I don’t just teach strategy. I transmit **state.**
I’ve helped over 300,000 students, made over \$1M in online income, and coached elite performers around the world — but none of that matters if it’s not aligned with soul. My work meets you at the edge of your becoming. It’s not about motivation. It’s about remembering who you are.
I bring the energy of a pro athlete, the clarity of a coach, and the raw creative fire of a performer. I walk my talk. I lift heavy. I laugh hard. I meditate. I move. I build from alignment.
🌀 What I Want You to Know
You don’t need to wait for permission.
You don’t need to burn out to be successful.
You are already the source.
The energy you seek isn’t somewhere else or in some achievement
It’s *within you.* My work is simply here to help you unlock it.
We all have a unique gift and our expression of it is our greatest service to the world

We’d love to hear the story of how you turned a side-hustle into a something much bigger.
Yes — my side hustle became my full-time reality.
I like to say it was calling me
It all started with basketball. I was obsessed with jumping higher, dunking at 5’10”, and pushing the limits of human potential. I documented my journey on YouTube, not to go viral — but because I was lit up by the before and after and how transformative it would be to look back on. That passion grew into a thriving channel with millions of views, brand deals, and a global community.
At the same time, I was working in corporate — stuck in meetings, drained by misaligned tasks, knowing deep down that I was meant for more, not sit in a cubicle. That’s when I started coaching people on the side — not just in fitness, but in energy, mindset, and aligned expression. I was helping people leap — physically and energetically.
Then the shift happened.
Key Milestones:
* I quit my corporate job
* I moved across the country to California
* I stopped chasing clients and started designing offerings that I was lit up by
* I created my online group that could serve more people and scale,
* I began speaking, rapping, and performing — bringing my full expression into every part of my brand.
My main struggle was my low self worth and imposter syndrome. Each time i got stuck i was led into a deeper trust of my own way and my own high frequency
Today, I help people reconnect to their natural energy, rewire old stories, and build magnetic businesses from truth.
Now my passion is directly correlated to my profit.
The more lit up I am in all areas of life, the more prosperity flows.

What do you find most rewarding about being a creative?
I get to be all of me — artist, athlete, coach, creator — and people come not just for what I do, but for who I am being.
I get to simply be present and fully expressed.
I believe we all have a innate pull to express just like trees grow.
Not only do i get to create amazing art that brings me peace and joy, i get to feel so connected to other humans and experience the richness of the awe and wonder of life.
