Mind, Body and Soca with Stephanie Stanford

Stephanie Stanford's Bio reads...Divine Connector; New Life Guider; Action Inspirer; Mind, Body and Soul Coach.

Those are a lot of identifiers, but the one that stuck with me most after speaking with her is "Action Inspirer".

This vibrant, effervescent, enigmatic lady does not seem to me to be the person you'd associate with divine connection and soul searching, because to me that sounds sleepy and Stephanie is alive, in your face, and exciting! She's a spiritual badass who is spunky, curse-y, loves animals and the ocean. She's a wife and mom who's also a carnival-a-holic and a hip hop head. And she gets you to take action!
