ABOUT
Personal Belief #1
Life is too short to stay stuck in a career that looks good on paper but makes you miserable. Everyone deserves to do meaningful work they love.
Personal Belief #2
Building a business is the biggest personal development journey will you ever go on. It's not just about building a business, it's about becoming the person who can lead it.
Personal Belief #3
There isn't a one-size-fits-all definition of "success" - and it should encompass much more than just financial gain. It's about building a life that looks and feels good to you.
Hey there, I'm Stacy... best known as the former lawyer turned jewelry designer.
I know what it's like to feel stuck in a high-paying career that looks great on paper but feels misaligned. That's why I made the leap from lawyer to jewelry business owner back in 2017 - and now I help others do the same! I help high-achievers quit their high-paying jobs and build businesses that align with who they truly are so they can finally do work that feels deeply meaningful and rewarding. I'm also the owner of grace + hudson jewelry, a multi-six figure wedding jewelry business I launched almost 9 years ago without any outside help, funding, or partners. My jewelry has even been featured on Brides.com as the "most classic" bridesmaid jewelry gift of 2022, 2023, and 2024! Currently, I live just a few miles from the beach in Charleston, South Carolina where life often feels peaceful, sunny, and aligned...
But it wasn't always this way...
I graduated with honors from an Ivy League college and a top 25 law school, then spent 11 years as a lawyer in big cities like Chicago and New York. On paper, it looked like I had it all. But then my father passed away from cancer in 2014 at the age of 65. That moment changed everything. I realized life was too short to spend in a career that doesn't align with who I truly am. So I made the best (and scariest) decision of my life: I quit.
Leaving my career wasn't easy, but it allowed me to create a life that feels aligned, joyful, and free and now I'm here to help you do the same. Because, reality check: waiting to enjoy life until you can retire is a gamble you can't afford to take. You may never get there, like my Dad. Life is happening now and you deserve to live it fully today. I also know how hard it is to leave behind a high-paying career you've worked so hard to build. That's why I help high-achievers like you overcome the mental roadblocks that keep so many stuck. I've been where you are, and I know exactly what it takes to build a business (and life) that feels aligned, joyful, and free.
