"I have found Stephanie's meditation sessions extremely beneficial.  It has been such a great touchpoint in a time of great uncertainty and angst for so many of us.  She has an energy and a way of speaking about mindfulness that is simple but very impactful.  Her guided meditations create a space to deeply relax and let go, and it's always a different and supportive experience to practice with others.  It is positive, uplifting energy. I look forward to the sessions."

"Stephanie's meditation sessions combine thoughtful discussions of a variety of mindfulness activities with a guided meditation that uses that day's approach. I both enjoy these sessions and learn more about ways I can address stress in my life.  Her patience with, and support of, our efforts to create a practice reinforces the importance of being kind to ourselves.  I find these sessions an oasis of calm in an otherwise stressful world.  Thank you, Stephanie!"

"I’ve had both the joy and privilege of working with Stephanie on several occasions, including most recently when she moderated the Women’s Bar Association of D.C.’s program, “Power & Pressure: Navigating a Government in Transition with Resilience.” She did an incredible job guiding the conversation - her calming presence makes you feel as though you’re sitting across from a good friend, enjoying a cup of coffee together.

Stephanie has a special combination of warmth, wisdom, and professionalism. She not only keeps discussions flowing with ease and insight but also has a genuine way of caring for others and wishing the very best for everyone she meets.

She’s selfless in how she supports and connects people, and I’m personally grateful for the meaningful introductions she’s facilitated -they’ve been life-changing for me. In addition to being a gifted moderator and connector,

Stephanie is also a skilled mindfulness and mindful movement teacher. I had the opportunity to experience one of her qigong practices and was deeply moved by her practical, grounded, and effective approach to calming the nervous system and bringing more ease and joy into daily life.

Stephanie leads with a compassionate, kind and steady presence. She is a thoughtful leader and someone who makes everyone around her better. Anyone who has the opportunity to work with Stephanie, whether through her mindfulness teaching, facilitation, or leadership, will be better for it."

"Stephanie is one of the most engaging and calming speakers I have ever had the pleasure of viewing virtually. Her energy floats through the screen and you can almost feel it! 

Over the last year, I’ve attended dozens of virtual presentations but none like what Stephanie delivered. She spoke to my organization on the benefits of wellness, mindfulness, and meditation. She used both common practices and also introduced a handful of new tactics to engage our audience. She seamlessly interacted with our group through a computer screen and made us feel as though we were sitting in a live audience! 

She has this natural ability to make you want to listen to what she has to say and feel comfortable when invited to participate. Stephanie certainly knows how to bring a group of people together in not only a compelling manner, but one where even weeks after her presentation many of her words are left ringing in my ear as small reminders from the lessons she left us with.

I can’t recommend Stephanie enough and only hope I’m lucky enough to hear her speak again soon!"

"I have been working with Stephanie about 9 months, and I think she is awesome! So intuitive and so down-to-earth. She really empowers you to come up with your own answers. She might offer up her impression of what you are saying, but she makes sure to give you the space to let it sit and see if it really rings true for you. She comes up with excellent questions that get right to the heart of the matter; I am often amazed at her ability to know just what to ask. She also is adept at wearing a more "SMART goals" coaching hat for issues that benefit from that approach.

Stephanie has lots of excellent resources. I use her guided meditations daily, choosing among several depending on my needs. I find that all of Stephanie's meditations, in addition to their stated themes, leave me feeling grounded and at ease. There is something about the quality and timing of her voice and her choice of words and music that makes my heart smile.

In addition to her own blog and workshops, she has suggested books and online resources from other practitioners as well. She really encourages you to find what works for you.

My own work with Stephanie has ranged from specific goals like establishing better self-care habits (exercise, meditation) to improving my relationship with food (she is a certified teacher of Michelle May's Intuitive Eating approach) to exploring issues as diverse as starting a new career, learning to trust my "little"/"inner" voice, and re-engaging with my artistic side.

I feel that I have made huge progress in so many aspects of my life in this short period of time, and I credit her skilled support as being a key factor in that progress. I'm so grateful to have the honor of working with her."
