Join me in shifting from conflict to cooperation, from chaos to clarity, from exhaustion to peace.
Welcome to my world – a realm where authenticity, growth, and positive change intertwine.
I'm Stephanie Bacon, and I'm thrilled to be your companion on this transformative journey.
A PASSION FOR AUTHENTICITY
For over two decades, I've been immersed in the world of education, a path that's shaped not only my professional journey but also my personal evolution.
As an educator, mother, and researcher, I've gathered information and experiences that have led me to serve others as I do today.
EXPERIENCE MEETS INSIGHT
My journey includes wearing various hats – teacher, coach, union president, researcher, and advocate. No matter what hat I've had on, I've dedicated myself to empowering students, educators, and leaders to shine. I believe that when humans embrace their unique gifts, they become catalysts for profound learning and transformational experiences.
Pain: what is it trying to teach us?
I ran from pain for years. It looked like pleasing others, achieving, and blaming sources outside of myself. It was only when I leaned into the pain, took time to let it inform me, that its friction dissolved, and I was free to move forward in new and invigorating ways.
By witnessing conflict and disconnect with curiosity rather than judgement I was able to rewrite my narrative. Experiencing the shifts from friction to flow and conflict to connection have fueled my passion for guiding others through challenges to a place of peace, freedom, and authenticity.
THE PURSUIT OF IMPACT
Currently, I'm on the cusp of completing my PhD, delving into the impact of teacher emotional health on relationships with students and student outcomes. My research reflects my unwavering commitment to creating positive change in the human landscape.
EMPOWERING EDUCATORS & LEADERS
I'm a firm believer in the power of social and emotional learning for young people. However, this learning begins with educators and leaders who are emotionally healthy and relationally skilled. My work is centered around nurturing educators and leaders as humans with their own unique gifts, paving the way for a vibrant, authentic, and meaningful communities.
A VISION OF AUTHENTIC LIVING
I envision a world where the messiness of humanity is celebrated, and individuals are empowered to shine because all parts of them are nurtured: mind, body, and heart. As your guide on this journey, I'm here to support you in discovering your true self and making positive ripples in the lives you touch.
