Get Your Breakthrough, with LEGO® Bricks


Breakthrough Session

September 2026

I was not a kid who played with LEGO® bricks. But now, they’re in almost every room of my house.

After hearing about LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY™ (LSP) from multiple podcast guests, I decided I had to give it a try myself. I became a convert. It isn’t just a release, it helps me think. That’s what I hope it can do for others as one of the perks I’m offering in my book campaign: a LSP Breakthrough Coaching session.

When I trained in LSP facilitation and coaching methods, I discovered that with the right structure and conversations, the bricks help us see, think through, and shape our choices.

So, I keep a bag of LEGO® bricks near my desk. When I’m really struggling with something, I take them out and start building.

  • I let my fingers do a bit of the thinking for me.
  • I offload the heaviness on my mind or in my heart.
  • Turning it around in my hands, I always gain a new insight.

One of the beauties of the LEGO® build is that the insights and growth can continue even after the session, and once you’ve experienced it, you have a new tool to be able to use with future challenges. It’s not an on-going commitment to coaching; it’s a single session with a legacy of strategic thinking.

Even though the book doesn’t come out until next year, your breakthrough session can be scheduled as early as October. You get to keep the LEGO bricks.

Because registrations are through the Book Campaign, those booking an LSP Breakthrough session will also

  • receive a physical copy of my book when it releases next year
  • be invited to additional gatherings around play as a leadership skill
  • have your name included in the book itself
  • AND SPECIAL TO MY EMAIL LIST: receive a Permission to Play pouch in your preferred color

If you are carving a new path for yourself, working through a particularly challenging time, struggle with decisions, or need to create some clarity amid the uncertainty of the world, participate in the book campaign at the level of the LSP Breakthrough Session ($425). I’d love to help you find clarity, and give you a fun, new tool for your journey.

Looking forward to welcoming you into the LSP fan club, and the community of leaders who play,

Play Through Uncertainty Buddy knows. You do too. Reading the book, "How to Not Know" Simone Stolzoff, I was struck by this stat from the Economic Policy Uncertainty Index ( Scott R. Baker, Nick Bloom ) The top 5 highest instances of uncertainty have happened in the last 5 years! The top 5! That means we've experienced greater measured uncertainty in the last five years than experienced during the Great Depression, World War II, or the Civil Rights Movement. And yet, our comfort with...
