What do you get when you mix pure hunger with purified purpose? You get Steven A.

Barthell. An individual willing to go the distance to make sure their dream is vividly and

powerfully realized through his passion for writing and speaking. Born in Boston, MA and

raised in Miami, FL, it’s not every day you meet a man who truly strives to embody the

essence of being a Renaissance figure. Steven Barthell is one that seeks through various

mediums to behold the greater meanings in life. He is a man that finds them and through his

own creative work, holds pearls of wisdom out for the masses to see. One would have to be

both deaf and blind to be unaware that Steven Barthell is as much a downright hard worker

as he is an active passionate dreamer.

 

What began as motivational speaking and self expression on relationships through YouTube,

has now turned into a well rounded career of hosting the monthly show “Shine” on Boston’s

BNN channel, being a weekly panelist on Single Ladies Café online radio station and

facilitating various workshops. He has also become a respected published author. In his

debut book, “Women R Stupid and Men R the Reason” Barthell consistently pushes for

people to reach their highest potential in relationships saying, “ Joys and pains of

relationships and courtship, loving, learning and marrying go hand in hand. At the end of the

day you have to figure out your motives, your requirements and if you’re willing to fight the

good fight. You court, you learn, you love, you marry and go through the joys and pains.”

 

For most, they simply rely on these kinds of titles to speak volumes for their

accomplishments. But to hear Barthell tell his story of how he reached this level of success,

he without a doubt would tell anyone about the struggles that gave the journey its’ meaning.

“I’ve conquered a lot of demons that I used to deal with and I tell people to do the same. It’s

time to step up and take responsibility for our own lives. At the end of the day it’s your

responsibility.” Steven A. Barthell has seen his share of downfalls as a former member of

failed singing groups, relationships that went downhill, and auditions that went nowhere;

Barthell chose to grow from the hardships of his youth. It was after these experiences that

Barthell began taking a positive out-look on life, rather than the negativity

he was used to and literally spoke his dreams into existence.

 

Now at 30 years old the man behind the book, the camera, and the microphone has grown

and come full circle. This is just the beginning for a young man whose dreams carry his feet

forward through and beyond what he sees into the futuristic solutions he continuously brings

forth into a world starving for more positive forces and people will to go the distance to

achieve their dreams.
