Meet Stephanie

Hey y’all! I’m. Stephanie Powell. A God-chasing wife + mother of two girls with a passion for living well. In August 2014, I launched Hello Dreamers as an outlet to help me balance the stress of work and family obligations with something that I was passionate about - bringing women together with the sole purpose of inspiring them to live lives that felt right to them.

As soon as I announced my project, things immediately started to change. Actually, they fell apart. It was like someone had pushed over the first domino in a long intricate pattern. Even though it was unexpected, I was fine with it. Along the way I learned that it was time to flex my faith muscles.

Time and time again, I was forced to realize that God had a much better plan for my life. One that I couldn't even imagine and one that His very character wouldn’t allow me to avoid no matter how much I kicked and screamed.

Eventually I accepted this truth “Even though I had no idea what would happen next, I'd be better off once it happened because I cared enough about myself to believe that there could be something headed toward me that would be greater than anything imagined.” 

I have learned a lot about myself along the way. I love the person I am becoming and want to share my faith-filled journey of self-discovery with you. 

Looking back at where this all started, I can easily see that life has been gracious to me - not perfect, but filled with many signs that prove that the good Lord above remains in the blessing business and that He is continuing the good work that he began in me (Philippians 1:6). As I began to both lean on and nurture my faith, I found myself being inspired to re-imagine Hello Dreamers. Welcome to Hello Dreamers 2.0!

here’s more about me

My husband Kelsey and I live in Pensacola with our perfectly proper 8 year old daughter, (Princess) Olivia and our fearless 4 year old daughter, Addison. I work full-time outside of the home as a Marketing Director in the hospitality industry. I recently discovered the Medicine Ball at Starbucks. Its my new FAVORITE drink!

I’m also a VERY PROUD graduate of the Florida A&M University School of Journalism and Graphic Communication. I teach Sunday School at my church and lead our Women’s Fellowship Ministry. When I’m not speaking or teaching, I’m out volunteering in my community.
