Hi! I'm Stephanie! I'm passionate about building impactful partnerships, enabling businesses to grow, and making sure the social impact community thrives. With over a decade of consistently generating seven and eight figure annual revenue for companies, I understand what it takes to drive success.

Over the last 15 years working with non-profit, government and for profit businesses, I've developed a unique process for building community and generating revenue through a partnership growth mindset. I've been fortunate to develop programs and partnerships that have touched lives across the globe, from India to the United States and beyond. I've created thousands of ecosystems and opportunities that unite governments, educators, employers, and donors to make tangible change.

I believe that together we can achieve great things and am committed to paving the way for a more inclusive, impactful future.

There is something about a sunrise from above the clouds.

You take off in the dark. Everything feels heavy and flat.

And then, the plane breaks through.

Light.

Perspective shifts fast at 30,000 feet.

The weather that felt all encompassing on the ground is suddenly just a layer.

I always find myself thinking about how often that is true in life and work too.

What feels overwhelming up close can look very different with a little distance.

Grateful for early flights. Grateful for perspective. 

Grateful for the reminder that the sun was there the whole time.

I do not listen to podcasts. My brain tends to wander halfway through and suddenly I am thinking about a completely unrelated idea.

And I don't read as many books as I think I should.

What I do love?
Articles.
Webinars.
Panels.
Micro learning.
Real conversations in rooms with smart people.

I learn best in short bursts. In live exchanges. In moments where I can connect dots immediately to the work in front of me.

So I am curious.

What are your best sources for sharp, practical learning right now?

Think:
• Articles you actually read to the end
• Webinars worth attending
• Newsletters that are not fluff
• LinkedIn voices who make you think
• Short reads that shift your perspective

Drop one recommendation below ⬇️  please!

I want things I can absorb, apply, and think about right away.

Learning does not have to be long to be meaningful.

I love small group facilitation.

When leaders from different sectors lean in.
When someone shares a real example instead of a polished talking point.
When one insight sparks another.
When you can almost feel ideas building on top of each other in real time.

Small groups have a different rhythm.

They’re more intimate.
More honest.
More generous.

It’s less about presenting and more about listening.
Less about being right and more about learning.

Facilitating those spaces is about holding the structure lightly.
Watching the clock so no one has to.
Making sure every voice has room.
Asking the question that helps the group go one layer deeper.

There’s something powerful about creating a space where people are willing to share what they’re seeing, what they’re struggling with, and what they’re trying.

Not to impress.

To contribute.

That exchange and the cross-pollination of ideas is what I love most.

That’s the work behind the work.

And it never gets old.

I’ve been pretty heads down this week.

Working through deliverables for clients.

Problem solving in creative ways.

Building out plans for new engagements.

It’s that deep focus work that I really love.
No noise. No rushing between things. Just time to think, map ideas out, and work through challenges properly.

There’s something really freeing about that kind of space. It’s also where the most exciting ideas tend to show up.

Not every week is like this. But when it is, I’m always reminded how much I enjoy the craft of the work itself.

Solving problems. Building plans. Figuring things out.

That part never gets old.

There is a moment in almost every skill where things start to feel easier.

Not because the work became simple.

Because you have done it enough times that your brain recognizes the patterns. 

You see what matters faster. You know where to focus.

That moment happened to me this week.

I was reviewing an application for someone and preparing feedback. As I worked through it, the adjustments that were needed felt obvious. The gaps. 

The places where the story could be clearer. The pieces that needed to connect.

The suggestions just rolled off the tongue.

It reminded me how much practice sits behind moments like that.

Years of reading applications. Writing them. Seeing what works. Seeing what does not.

Practice is what creates that shift.

The more time you spend learning the fundamentals, the more room you have later to experiment, adapt, and think creatively.

It applies to almost everything. Leadership. Strategy. Writing. Problem solving.

The early reps may feel repetitive.

They are also what make the interesting work possible later.

#ProposalWriting #NonProfit #RevenueGrowth #BusinessDevelopment #Learning

A pattern I see in many organizations.

They think the challenge is funding.

But when we dig deeper, the real issue is clarity.

Clarity about what they actually do.
Clarity about outcomes.
Clarity about how their work connects to broader priorities.

Funding usually follows clarity.

Without it, even strong ideas struggle to land.

Inspired by Jesika Arseneau - I've decided to participate in the Coldest Night of the Year walk and fundraise.  I have 6 days to fundraise so consider helping a girl out! 🙏 

The Coldest Night of the Year is a family-friendly 2 or 5 km fundraising walk in support of local charities serving people experiencing hurt, hunger, and homelessness.

Each year in February, tens of thousands of Canadians step outside the warmth and comfort of home to shine a light of welcome and compassion in their communities. Since 2011, the Coldest Night of the Year has raised over $75,000,000 across Canada in 190 Canadian communities – 100% of net proceeds stay local to support our CNOY charity partners. Learn more about our history.

I didn't realize how big this event was or how many locations there are. I encourage everyone to check it out!!

This is my first year and hoping to make it an annual tradition. I'm fundraising so please consider donating (or looking online to donate to someone walking in your community).

There’s a lot in the headlines lately about major shifts from changes in procurement policy designed to support key sectors and workforce needs, to teams digging deep in the Winter Olympics. 

And it makes me think about this:

Progress isn’t always linear.

It’s not a straight line from A → B.

Sometimes it’s:
• a policy update that reshapes opportunity
• a team rallying after an early setback
• a training room moment nobody ever sees
• a person trying something hard again and again

Whether it’s athletes chasing Olympic dreams or teams trying to solve big workforce challenges, what unites real progress is this:

effort + consistency + community

A reminder today that what matters most isn’t just where you end up,
it’s how you move toward it together.

I love, love, love this. And just need to share!

This is my reply to every email I've missed since Jan 1st.

It's not you, it's me.

And also it's not me, it's *gestures broadly* all of this. 

It's that I learned about the most horrific thing done to children by the men who run *all of this*, before I even left my bed this morning. 

It's the constant deluge of messages on every platform, and the expectation that we are all always available, everywhere, and if we're not, then we're failing. 

It's that we can work this hard and do this much, and they still laugh at us when they think we're not listening. 

It's all of it. 

It's untenable to live in this reality right now as a woman and a mom, and I'm going to do more about it. But in the meantime,  I do apologize for missing your email. 

But I want you to know, it is absolutely not you. 

I love you. 

*boops your nose*.

I'm obsessed with what most people avoid: the hard, human side of sales.
Cold calling. Relationship-building. Demos that don’t sound robotic. That’s where I live - and where sales success is built.

Over the years, I’ve worked with companies of all sizes - from tech startups to national organizations - developing outbound strategies that don’t just drive numbers… they build trust.

✅ Grew revenue to $500K+ ARR at Brizi
✅ 220%+ quota months (and I’ve got the receipts)
✅ Built scalable outbound systems at OneLocal and beyond

If you're looking for someone who blends old-school hustle with modern sales strategy... let's talk.

Because selling doesn’t have to be pushy - it just has to be real.
