Meet Your Mentor...
Hi, I'm Stephanie. I'm a brand storyteller, Human Design coach, and connector of seemingly un-connectible ideas.
I teach visionary entrepreneurs and leaders how to turn their zones of genius into a movement-worthy message that increases their visibility and impact with joy and confidence.
Everyone has a unique story and message that can change the world. But it’s hard to crystallize it on your own. Trust me, I’ve been there.
For 15+ years I've created content marketing magic for do-good startups and organizations like Planned Parenthood and Teach For America. When it came to promoting myself – I’d get tongue-tied and hide out. But when I uncovered my authentic brand story, I could speak powerfully about what I do to anyone.
Since 2019, I’ve coached others to go from best-kept secret to undeniable authority in their fields. The Own Your Message method taps my experience as a former journalist, public radio producer, writing teacher and marketing director to help you mine the hidden gems of your story to create a unique lane that’s all your own.
