Stacy Connects…with Stacy Heller

Stacy starts by sharing how Walla Walla Wine Camp went, reflecting on the depth of the connection and conversations shared among her girlfriends. She also wonders aloud about when a lie is more than a lie and shares her weekly STACYISM. Her guest Tucker Miller, an executive leadership coach with Onward Leadership, works primarily with women in the corporate landscape; however, she doesn’t discriminate when it comes to leadership development! Tucker’s mission to help companies develop and retain valued leaders, and help individuals develop greater executive presence is clear and compelling!

The Business Advisor, not the comedian. But first, Stacy shares her review of Mafia Mamma, her story about “Grace and the Great Flood” and an update on her mother’s broken arm. Her guest is Rich Hall, a Certified Exit Planning Advisor (or CEPA), who helps owners position their businesses for sale. By focusing on more than just the bottom line, Rich guides leaders away from profit stagnation and toward sustainable growth and their ultimate vision of success, personally and professionally.

Stacy works hard for her money but spends Pete’s! Stacy rants about poor processes around deliveries, the healing properties of sunshine and dogs and having an attitude of abundance versus scarcity. Stacy and her guest Emily McPhetridge of First Financial Northwest Bank continue the dialog around financial literacy in celebration of Financial Literacy Month! While Emily is passionate about the topic in general, she is especially motivated to work with women on understanding the importance of having their own financial identity, it’s amazing how many women at every age and stage don’t. And even more surprising how many are unaware when it comes to their overall finances (shared or not). It’s a conversation that needs to be ongoing. In the meantime, based on current events, if you want to learn more about FDIC coverage visit: https://edie.fdic.gov/calculator.html. It’s one small step towards financial independence for womenkind!

And she works with them; and when it comes to guest Kathy Lewis of Elemental Alchemy Healing, both apply! Before they chat, Stacy shares details from her visit with her mom. From dinner at Elaine’s artfully curated condo and lunch at Wendy’s (gotta love that Senior discount!), to Happy Hour at the Bistro and cocktails with the Corner Group Crew at Ginny’s, it was a trip to remember spent with a community Mom (and I) are so grateful for! For Kathy Lewis’ second appearance on the show, we go into more detail about how she works in service to each client’s intention; creating a dynamic relationship between the energy of the gems and the client.

Since he’s not going to sell you insurance Stacy will. But first, she shares why she put a gumball machine outside her office and how it backfired on her. Her STACYISM is about finding what you’re looking for (so look for the good); a quality that can be found in this week’s guest, Fernando Guaren Jr. Fernando’s upbringing obviously influenced his personal identity; however, the impact it had on his professional identity, was unexpected even for him. He wears his heart on his sleeve and a grin on his face! To learn more about Fern, go to https://insurewithfern.com/

I guess it depends on the woman! This week Stacy reflects on her birthday and the melancholy she felt while celebrating it this year. She also shares a STACYISM about being present before embracing an elephant that’s in too many rooms too often! She and guest, JD Wyneken talk about sexual harassment; how women from different generations view it and why men feel like it’s their right. It’s a complex conversation that requires thoughtful reflection for both men and women. JD brings an interesting perspective; both as a former douchebag (his words) and as a Human Potential Coach. One thing that is very clear, consent is key! Want to learn more about JD? Go to: https://www.wordsbyjdk.com/

Which is why it’s past time for Stacy to have an office to call her own. You’d think with “making her mark and owning it” (a reference to her Stacyism), Stacy would be more financially literate. However, as she and this week’s guest, Steve Haas discuss, financial illiteracy is far reaching across all ages and stages of life. Steve uses his personal interests and abilities for a passion project, a financial literacy mentor. He works with both post-college, young adults, and folks he meets from his work with Peer Seattle (an organization that cultivates powerful, healthy lives by providing support and development services to the LGBTQ community impacted by addiction, mental health and/or HIV). Whichever demographic he’s mentoring, Steve invests his time, confident the return on his investment will pay off in spades.

Stacy’s guest this week is her daughter Grace which means the conversation is faster and more furious than ever! They talk about Stacy’s initiation into the trash TV tradition that is dating shows like Grace’s fav, The Perfect Match, and the latest pop culture news about Selena, Hailey, and Kylie. Their “real” topic is the growing trend of post-college adults moving back home for any variety of reasons. Grace shares her own experiences and opinions while Stacy listens with awe to her insights and shares her perspective from the parent side.
