Career

Before Storey was known as a life coach, he began teaching and praying for large masses of people as a traveling minister at 20 years old. His first speaking engagement was in front of 15,000 people, overseas. Now, he is a speaker, author and Life Coach who has traveled to 70 countries.

Back in 1992, a group of individuals believing in the power of possibilities, gathered together with Tim and eventually started the Hollywood Bible Study at the home of Dyan Cannon with seven people. Over the years, thousands of industry professionals and friends showed up monthly to be reminded and encouraged that things were not always what they seemed at first.

Through this study, Tim has helped countless world shakers, like Robert Downey Jr., Kanye West, Christian Slater, Deion Sanders, Natalie Cole, Charlie Sheen, Hunter Tylo, Berry Gordy, Suzanne De Passe, Quincy Jones, Lee Iacocca, Brent Bolthouse and so many more.

Over the years, it has gone from large crowded sessions at the Mondrian Hotel, Wyndham Bel Age (The London) and the Hyatt Andaz West Hollywood to small intimate gatherings in homes across the world in Beverly Hills, Miami, New York, Stockholm and Johannesburg.^[5]

The Study is currently meeting at the famous East West Studios in Hollywood, home of legends like Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Elvis Presley, the Beach Boys, Ray Charles, Johnny Cash and Michael Jackson, NBC’s The Voice, GLEE, Weezer, Stevie Wonder, U2, Sir Elton John and Incubus. Recently renovated by renowned designer Philippe Starck, EastWest is the perfect spot to get intimate and dive in and take us beyond our immediate perception of life.

In 2015, Tim Storey was interviewed by Oprah Winfrey on OWN's Super Soul Sunday. The episode has aired numerous times and has had extremely high ratings. He was asked to be a featured speaker at the Super Soul Session at UCLA in Los Angeles, CA. The same year, Quincy Jones invited Tim Storey to speak at the invitation-only leadership event PTTOW in Los Angeles, CA.
