Professional Coaching by Scott Wolford, ACC

“Our chief want in life is somebody who will make us do what we can."  

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Hi! I'm Scott Wolford, the founder of Beyond the Blue Coaching. With my experience as a retired Ohio State Trooper and Security Manager for Nationwide Mutual Insurance, I understand the challenges of transitioning to new roles and achieving life ambitions. My public service career ended abruptly when a car hit me in 2009, and I had to navigate my transition to the private sector mostly on my own.

As an Associate Certified Coach (ACC) with the International Coaching Federation (ICF) and a Certified Protection Professional (CPP) through ASIS International, I bring a unique perspective to my coaching practice. I aim to partner with you to overcome blocks and become more aware of your thinking patterns to discover the root cause of stress and obstacles.

At Beyond the Blue Coaching, I am passionate about coaching, training, and personal development. I strive to help my clients bridge the gap between intention and action and motivate themselves to reach their goals. So, if you're ready to embark on a journey toward transformation and success, please get in touch with me today. I would be honored to help you achieve your full potential.

Energy Leadership Index

The iPEC Energy Leadership Index (ELI) assessment measures an individual's level of consciousness and self-awareness in various areas of their life. It evaluates their potential to lead themselves and others toward positive, productive, and sustainable action. The ELI assessment also identifies the individual's engagement in work and personal tasks and their energetic reaction to stress. The results provide insights to help individuals recognize and modify their responses to stress and increase their ability to lead themselves and others effectively.


“Vision is the bottleneck of talent. Most talent is wasted because people do not clearly know what they want. It’s not a lack of effort, but a lack of direction. There are many capable people in the world, but relatively few that focus on what matters.”
