The Leadership Development Program consist of different elements within one program. The program is geared to life skills and leadership training.
We firmly believe the first step in success is knowing your own value and understanding authenticity. We work with teen girls & young women to create awareness and potential within by focusing on abilities in this program.This unique Leadership Development program engages your mind, body, and emotions in a way that makes it possible for you to experience yourself through others' eyes.This Leadership Development program is highly focused on you, the participant, such that you become the main star in the movie of your own life and teaching you tools to use to understand your leadership. We help them see a map to the activities they maybe engaged in and where they may end up if they continue. This is to say that it is easier to learn through this Leadership Development program how to become the best you rather than how to emulate someone else. After all, it's only when you are being yourself that others find you authentic. (Career coaching, Career Development, Speaker training, Life coaching, etc.)

" STEPHANIE IS A LIFESAVER. I wanted to literally kill my daughter for the disrespect. She has helped me NOT to take it personal and live my life. Yes my daughter has her moments, but all teenagers do, however we have a better relationship now through the tools she gave me and my child. Thank you so very much. I would recommend any parent going through with their child to at least try the program"
