Steph Recommends

I’m often asked for advice for travel and safety advice ranging from where to stay while traveling to what to carry for protection. I’ve put together this resource page with suggestions and products to help in planning your next trip to personal safety.  As I try different products and services I will share them with you here.

I believe that woman should not be afraid to travel.  Whether your wandering takes you to a coffee shop in a nearby city, or across the ocean, feeling confident that you can protect yourself is empowering.  From understanding situational awareness, knowing how and when to use personal safety products and developing the confidence to step out of your comfort zone, I will teach you the tips and tricks to wander wisely.   

Airbnb

I often use Airbnb while traveling as it offers more selection and variety at a lower price than hotels. It also provides a more local feel.  If you want to check out Airbnb for yourself, you can receive $55 off your first rental by using Airbnb discount code – CLICK HERE

Testimonials

“Stephanie was awesome in helping plan a girls trip to Asheville NC! She recommended a quaint Air B&B with hosts who were fantastic. With her guidance we rented a car and drove through the beautiful hills and went to the Biltmore house. We also signed up for a food and drink tour which took us to several local restaurants in Asheville. Over all it was one of the best trips I’ve taken and would definitely love to go back!  Thanks Stephanie!”

Lisa, Cape Coral

“Stephanie’s Warrior Workshop taught my co-workers and I practical tips and strategies to protect ourselves from being assaulted. As a realtor who is often alone in homes during open houses and showings, I need to know how to protect myself.  Stephanie’s class was hands-on, empowering and lots of fun!”
