Change doesn't fail because of discipline. It fails because people run out of fuel. LifeSparcs is a proven framework that creates sustainable momentum — for individuals navigating life, and organizations leading change.
Life hits from all angles. LifeSparcs gives you a lightweight, human-scale system to stay focused on what matters — even when things get complicated.
Most initiatives fail not from lack of effort, but from change fatigue. LifeSparcs pairs Agile principles with human realities to keep your teams engaged and moving.
SPARC is a weekly framework that merges proven productivity practices with human realities. Agility with motivation. Metrics with rest. Coaching with reflection. It's designed to be run weekly — building compounding momentum rather than short bursts of intensity.
"Give people a tool, the use of which will lead to new ways of thinking."
— Buckminster Fuller
Clearly define where you or your team actually stands. Honest situation-setting is the foundation — without it, every subsequent step is built on sand.
What possibility hides inside of the Situation? What does success actually look like? This is the north star that pulls you forward when energy fades and the path gets unclear.
Not a master plan — a vector. Small, committed actions that build traction. Something concrete you can start today, not someday.
You can't sustain momentum without recharging. Your relationships are key to longevity of change, and life for that matter. Rejuvenation is the idea of the mind and body - health is the foundation.
Checkpoint is the time to count what you've accomplished (or not), check in with your coach or mentor on this change (very important!) and, perhaps most ignored but equally as important, celebration. You must celebrate at every checkpoint!
Running SPARCs weekly builds durable momentum. Each cycle closes the feedback loop — uncovering new goals and recalibrating as reality shifts.
Most people and organizations don't fail at change because they lack discipline. They fail because they become jaded, exhausted, or inoculated to the next big initiative before it ever takes hold.
Whether you're an individual chasing a personal goal or a leader driving organizational transformation, the enemy is the same: running out of stamina before the change has time to stick.
LifeSparcs was built for the messy middle — the part no framework ever talks about.
I've spent over 20 years leading Agile transformations inside large organizations — HP, Boeing, Accenture — and I kept seeing the same thing: smart, motivated people running out of steam before the change could stick. Not because they lacked discipline. Because no one built recovery, relationships, or real accountability into their personal system. LifeSparcs is my answer to that. As I pursue my ICF Life Coach certification, I'm combining that coaching foundation with years of professional experience in Agile and positive psychology — to help individuals, leaders, and teams sustain meaningful change, both personally and at work, without burning out the humans involved. I live it every day. I'd love to help you do the same.
