Your life isn't happening to you. It's happening
Essays on purpose, patterns, and becoming.
If you feel the gap, you’re not alone.
This is where we begin.
About Steve Satterwhite
A fellow traveler. Same road. Same journey.
I've spent 28 years building companies. It's what I know. It's what I love.
I'm the founder of Entelligence, an IT services and consulting firm I started in 1997. What began as a small operation has grown into a platform I'm deeply proud of — not just for what we've built, but for how we've built it. Our philosophy is simple: do the right thing, treat people well, and take responsibility for outcomes. The results tend to follow.
I'm also the founder of Feed1B, a nonprofit with an audacious goal: helping to feed one billion people by addressing the root causes of food insecurity with dignity and sustainability at the center.
And I'm the author of Above the Line, a book shaped by years of building teams and companies — and by a belief I've seen proven repeatedly: that culture isn't a nice-to-have. It's the whole game.
Over time, building organizations, leading people, and raising a family have raised deeper questions for me — about leadership, purpose, and responsibility. About the unconscious blueprints we carry from childhood and the assignments waiting on the other side.
I explore those questions here. Not as someone who has it figured out, but as someone learning to pay closer attention. Writing is how I metabolize life. How I find my way.
