Kind Words About Stephanie
"Stephanie is a thoughtful coach, guiding with insightful pacing and placing caches of wisdom within reach. She was faultlessly professional and generous. I appreciated her patience, wisdom, warmth, and humor."Â
-Catherine
"LiveWellFlow’s courses consistently help remind me to focus on the “now.” As the ultimate “planner,” I can get consumed with “what’s next” and not truly express gratitude for the present! This course was the mindfulness reminder I needed!"
-Tracey Kenney
"The class helped me to understand that the time I invest in myself carries me through the day. It continues to help me stay grounded and present."

“Stephanie is a thoughtful, compassionate, and empathetic coach. She has been direct and forthright, not allowing me to hide behind the excuses or "stories" as she aptly calls them, which I know don't serve me well. She has shown a dedication and focused energy that has helped me to hone in on effective, practical ways to proceed - not simply with a job search, but with a real pathway forward in my life as a working mom. I highly recommend her for any life, wellness, or job coaching needs you may have!”

"Stephanie is a wonderful teacher. She has a very welcoming and gentle manner, so whether it is your first class or your 50th, you feel you are where you belong and can follow along with the movements easily. I have learned so many forms of qigong in Stephanie’s classes as each class is different, and she has motivated me to make qigong a daily practice.
-Nancy Axelrod
"Stephanie Lewis is a knowledgeable and professional teacher. In in her zoom-based classes on Qigong and meditation she explains and demonstrates movements to the attendees (especially the new participants). This is a great class for anyone interested in exploring skills in both mental and physical wellness."
