Imagine this: It's late at night, and you're sitting alone, staring at your computer screen, feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders. You’ve built products, businesses, and maybe even a career, but something still feels off. You’re searching for more than just success; you’re searching for peace, fulfillment, and a way to overcome the inner battles that keep holding you back. I know this feeling because I’ve been there too.

Hi, I’m Steve Lindgren, and for years, I’ve been a Designer, building products and businesses that solved problems—just not the kind of problems that truly matter. Sure, I could sell products on Amazon or design the next big software, but deep down, I knew these things weren’t making the impact I wanted. I wasn’t really helping people in a way that mattered.

Then, two years ago, my life changed forever—I became a father. Suddenly, everything became crystal clear. I didn’t want to pass on my struggles, my anxieties, my traumas to my son. I wanted to be the one who breaks the cycle, who stops the generational traumas from being handed down like an unwanted inheritance. That’s when my healing journey truly began.

Anxiety, depression, constant overthinking—these were my daily companions, and life didn’t make it easier with the added burdens of loss, injuries, and addiction. I tried everything—therapy, medication, CBT exercises—but nothing seemed to stick. I kept asking for tools and systems to help me manage these issues, but most therapists just didn’t provide what I needed. I needed something practical, something consistent, something that would work for me.

As a Product Designer, I’ve always believed in the power of systems and tools to create change. But what happens when the problem you need to solve isn’t about building a product—it’s about building yourself? That’s when I realized the journey had to start from within, with my inner child.

When we’re kids, we’re our most authentic selves, unfiltered and raw. But as we grow, the world starts shaping us, pushing us to wear masks to fit in, to be loved, to survive. We lose touch with who we really are, and that’s when the cracks start to show in adulthood. The behaviors you don’t like, the habits you can’t break—they all trace back to that inner child who learned to hide, to change, to protect.

The moment I understood this, my healing journey began. I knew it wouldn’t happen overnight, but I also knew that starting the journey was the most important step. And that’s why I created System Minded.

System Minded isn’t just another self-help program. It’s a collection of tools, systems, and resources designed to help you HEAL, DISCOVER, and GROW. I didn’t want to start a coaching or therapy business—I wanted to build something that could be a resource for therapists, coaches, and anyone who’s ready to take control of their healing journey. These are the tools I wish I had when I was struggling, and now, they’re here for you.

I’m not against therapy or coaching—quite the opposite. I want System Minded to be the go-to resource that enhances those experiences, providing focused sessions that deliver real results in the time and budget you have. Too often, people keep paying for sessions without seeing the progress they need. System Minded tools are designed to help you zoom in on the areas where you want to grow, giving you the systems to get there faster.

This is the community I want to build—a place where we don’t just talk about change; we create it. Where healing isn’t a distant dream but a reality you can start today. Welcome to System Minded, where your journey to becoming your true self begins.

Let’s build something amazing together.
