Meet The Team

Stacey’s passion for supporting women along their self-care journey developed during her long career as an educator. In a primarily female work environment, she witnessed (and shared) many of the issues and struggles women of all ages experienced. Stacey used her coaching and leadership skills to create supportive teacher cohorts and to build community among fellow teachers. Stacey joined the Garden of the Goddesses in 2016 and when the first retreat session was envisioned, she’s assisted Amy in launching the weekend retreats. Providing a safe place for women to deepen their authentic self brings her the greatest joy. Stacey is an avid gardener, quilter, animal lover, spiritual empath, and grandmother to three young girls who WILL grow up to be self-assured, independent and kind women.
