Don't Shrink to Fit: Empowering and Inspiring women, one story at a time.
What I learned about myself after a life of abuse, disappointments and the military/ Stephanie Bedell
Stephanie had a very hard upbringing and to escape that reality she joined the army looking for more, until she finally realized that her journey of healing needed to start within. She got clarity, finally embraced all parts of herself and was able to forgive. Please join me to listen to her story of resilience and hope while she navigates pregnancies, abuse, marriage and life in the military.
"If I had to pick one to sum up all the big shifts in my life. It would be when I completed the 8 week session with WoVeN (Women Veteran Network). I embraced all parts of me. I realized that even though I did experience things that society doesn't talk about (rape, harassment, assault, pregnancy loss) I was not alone. I had a voice. All these things shaped who I was, by finding my voice, sharing my story, I am paving the way for others and helping them find their voice and creating a safe space for others to share and grow."
Stephanie defines herself as a human, military veteran, wife, mother of 4 children and a fur baby cat named Gremlin. She loves being creative, coffee, and chocolate. Volunteering in her community and connecting others. When she isn't eating, going on adventures in this thing called life she can be found at www.stephaniecreatesblank.com. Her business is helping others creatively connect with their community. Offering digital and physical products, web design and social media content creation. But her story was unexpected. I encourage to listen to her and see what an incredible journey of resilience she endured.

You are feeling drained
You have lost your passion
You are lost on the many roles you play everyday
You are a mom 24/7 because you have forgotten to be anything else
You feel empty!
You feel guilty when you make yourself a priority
You feel you are on a hamster wheel
Everyday is the same!
You have lost that spark you once had
You are tired of the same old thing
You don't know where to start!
