My name is Stephanie, and if life didn’t go as planned, you are not less. Your story still matters—and if you need someone who truly gets it, I’m here.

I split my time between North Carolina and Paris with my husband, Michel, and our two dogs, YaYa and ZZ. I’m a stepmom, traveler, and storyteller. I advocate for shifting the language—from “childless” to "Childfree Not by Choice"—to reflect the strength and resilience behind this path.
