THIS THURSDAY! September 28, 2023 - "Stephanie Ellison, author of "Always and Forever" and popular speaker, will share her story with us. Writers should always have stories to tell! Her life is an extraordinary testament to the transformative power of resilience and healing. With her unique blend of personal experiences academic knowledge, and natural charisma, she is a beacon of hope for those facing adversity and a much sought-after speaker. Join us for her program: Always Forever Dreaming Big!
