My Name Is

Steve Michael, the author of The 100% Life and Founder of the Wolfpack Coaching Program for men. Years ago, I had a wakeup call that almost pushed me over the edge. My career had stalled, my blood pressure was out of control, my marriage was coasting, and spiritually, I was empty.  I had to face the truth: I was living at 70% and the scariest part was that I had started to accept it.

Over several years, I spent thousands of dollars and countless hours researching, taking courses, hiring coaches, and more. And what I learned was invaluable. I discovered what it takes to move the needle in a man's life. From this knowledge and insight, and after years of banging my head against the wall, I created The 100% Life System. Both a labor of love and a prescription for my own frustration and dysfunction. But I knew that writing a book was only part of the answer. To fully execute on the system, a man needs accountability. A friendly kick in the ass when it is needed most. I started by offering individual coaching, and my clients achieved tremendous success. I was able to refine the system further, but I didn't achieve the kind of impact I wanted. That is why I decided to transition to a group coaching program called The Wolfpack.

My mission is to positively impact the lives of 1 million men by helping them reach their fullest potential—physically, financially, emotionally, and spiritually.

This isn’t just about personal growth. It’s about legacy.

When a man levels up, he lifts his marriage, his family, his business, his community—and the generations that follow.

This book is the spark.

The Wolfpack is the fire.

The mission is transformation—one man, one life, one ripple effect at a time.
