Why Stephanie?

People aren't "who's" at home and "what's" at work. When they have the skills and traits to be excellent at who they are, they can be excellent at what they do. 

Stephanie inspires people with proven principles (the why) and equips them with actionable insights (the how).  

A potent combination for powerful transformation.

The Three Stories Roadmap: Moving Forward No Matter the Challenges

Wasted potential, unproductive efforts, and disappointing results are the costs of unknown or inaccurate stories people tell about themselves, others, and life. But curiosity, conviction, and a true-north compass empower solution-oriented thinking, replacing defensiveness with engagement, removing self-limiting and self-inflating beliefs, and exchanging unclear expectations for clarity of purpose and path.

Take-aways include how to:

  1. Respectfully and skillfully discover the stories driving behavior and decisions
  2. Identify what stories are sabotaging or fueling growth
  3. Rewrite faulty stories--reducing detours & distractions--and promoting true stories-- propelling progress

Communication too often occurs as a transaction rather than an opportunity for connection. Like EQUIP, this presentation benefits not only professionally, but in personal relationships and parenting. Get beyond techniques to the three fundamentals of I-You communication. 

Listeners discover:

  1. Attitude beats technique every time
  2. Curiosity is key to connection

Breakout or Workshop

So That's Why! The Root of Our Best--and Worst--Behavior

"That's it!" results when people discover the question that's kept them stuck or struggling personally or professionally. "Aha!" follows when they see how this same question can also result in their best contributions.

As a Primal Question Certified Coach, Stephanie brings Mike Foster's transformative work to life. This framework turns on the light, revealing the roots of powerful and long-standing behaviors.

Participants gain:

  1. Breakthroughs in understanding themselves and others
  2. Hope and a path to change what isn't working
  3. Insight on turning their hardest struggle into their best contributions

Basketball, Brit Lit, and Ballrooms

Stephanie's experience teaching teenage boys Pride and Prejudice in Brit Lit uniquely prepared her for ballrooms full of adults. Especially those who--like the students who had to stop playing basketball when lunch ended--initially arrive with feet dragging and arms crossed. Grumbling about being pulled away from important work.

 

They'll leave glad they came.

 

Stephanie brings:

  • "Aha!" insights that get people unstuck and moving towards their goals
  • Action items tied to proven principles because people need why, not just what
  • A sprinkling of humor--because significant isn't synonymous with stuffy
