About
Stacy Tilford, coach & educator
“And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was greater than the risk it took to blossom.”
-Anais Nin
The day my Enneagram coach handed me this quotation she scrawled for me on a small scrap of white paper she had torn off the side of her notebook during our coaching session, my life changed forever. This was the turning point. The moment when everything I had learned synced and my values and my actions began to align. I have lived a different life every day since because of that moment.
But of course, while that moment feels like the moment, it was actually the culmination of thousands of idea exchanges, hundreds of coaching hours, countless trainings and a deep commitment to learning the Enneagram, all paired with my personal growth and awareness. That is what made it possible for me to hear that moment for what it was: a call to action.
This was a call to take everything I had learned and make it into tangible, life-altering choices that allowed me to create the life that I wanted; fulfilled, content and in control of my choices.
Trillium exists because of that moment. It exists because of the freedom I believe is inherent to every human being if they are given the right guidance and are willing to become aware of what is.
My goal is to show you what is available to you so that you can make intentional choices about your life that move you in the direction of the things you value most. I look forward to supporting you as you answer your own call to action. I believe in the transformative power of self-discovery and conscious choice, and I believe in you.

Stacy’s Purpose
To help people make intentional choices about their behavior, no matter what life brings them.
Every person comes built in with the drive to achieve their goals and live their values, but the frictions of living build unconscious patterns of thought and behavior that get in our way of living out those goals and values. We believe that by becoming aware of these patterns and practicing practical skills for addressing them, we can disrupt, re-shape, and unseat our patterns to keep us available to act in our values and purpose every day.
The road will never stop having bumps, and the path will never be fully clear. We equip our clients to make daily decisions that align with their values and goals by making them emotionally-resilient and behaviorally-agile so that no matter what life brings they can continue to make decisions that get them more of what they want out of life.
