Facilitator
NYC → New England → San Francisco

Leo Stevenson

I consult with mission-driven organizations – mostly startup nonprofits – on organizational development. I also do 1:1 facilitation with individuals through Attention Copilot. For more, or to explore working together, see hire me.

Some past lives include: deputy director of a startup climate politics nonprofit as it grew to a 2.8M annual budget & 16 staff; electoral field manager in Philadelphia during the 2024 presidential election; political organizer in the climate justice world; full-time meditator; resident & land-caretaker in the simple-living community surrounding Dickinsons Reach; outdoor educator at the quaker refuge Farm & Wilderness.

Some non-work passions: meditation (contemporary vajrayana), poetry, woodwork, and designing spaces. I write and publish online, mostly on meditation-related topics, under a pen name.

I recently built wherecanimeditate.com, a searchable, self-updating list of silent meditation retreats in North America. AI scrapers read and consolidate info from dozens of retreat center sites and keep listings and details current. You can filter by date, cost, region, and lineage to find a retreat that works for you.
