* The Pearl Within.

Whether at work or in our personal lives, each of us is in a stage of "becoming."  Like the struggle an oyster endures to birth a beautiful pearl, we, too are in the molding process to become all that we are destined to be. Stacy uses themes from her bestselling novel, Watercolored Pearls, to equip professionals, college students, and other adults or young adults to look within and pull forth the confidence, fortitude and excellence that creates success. Appropriate for college, corporate, civic and religious groups.

 

*Who Speaks To Your Heart?

This signature message inspires audiences to view life's triumphs and pitfalls as opportunities to learn more about themselves, deepen their faith and achieve success. Appropriate for religious groups.

 

*The Edge of Possibilities.

Consider the "what ifs" and ponder what you would do differently if you were more courageous, smarter, wealthier, wiser....  The list could extend forever. This message encourages audiences to give merit to their dreams or unexpected opportunities, and in the process, surprise themselves with fuller, happier, more prosperous lives. Appropriate for corporate or civic groups or colleges and other professional organizations. Can also be tailored to religious groups.
