ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Hello, my name is Stephanie M. Flores. I am a goal setter, intention setter, self-reflective and spiritual. My free time is spent writing/ reading, studying meditation/ spirituality, and enjoying quality time with loved ones.

In the fall of 2010, I moved to Los Angeles and was living my dream, yet something was missing. In 2013, I pursued a work-life balance when I found my voice. In improv, I noticed I was always the last person on stage, the last to speak, and when I spoke, I didn’t say a lot. “What is this saying about me? How am I showing up this way?” I thought to myself. Those questions led me to a voice coach, where I discovered that it was easier to cover my emotions and be silent and hidden than to be seen and heard. Now that I found my voice, I honor my intuition and myself, face my fears, and learned to let go/surrender and trust life.

Finding my voice continues to impact my life because it requires me to be honest with myself each moment.

After 12.5 years of working in the entertainment industry,  I left my career in the Spring of 2018 to go back to school. I am now pursuing my calling, which emerged shortly after I found my voice.

My calling is to help others speak their truths, heal in the ways they need, and live an authentic life.

As of result of my journey and my calling, I launched HeartSpace Circle in the fall of 2017 to build community and interpersonal connections.

Life is crazy but also beautiful and vibrant when you lean into authenticity.

ABOUT THE BLOG

This blog was created as a personal challenge: me versus my fear of vulnerability.

In my experience, to be vulnerable meant that I would be judged by others.

The blog has since evolved to be a place to be inspired. You will find posts about following your heart, mindfulness, struggle, and wellness.

Living at the edge of your comfort zone is scary, but life is richer here. 

Thank you for reading!
