Episode description

Join Stacie and Paulette as they walk down the path of divorce recovery after the pain and overwhelm of divorce. Divorce can be the catalyst for transformation and that was the case for both Stacie and Paulette. They met in Boston at an event for Mastin Kipp and again six months later in Bali where they went to join Mastin and his team of experts to write and five years later Stacie has not looked back.  You will benefit from her experience and wisdom in this fun and insightful conversation. 

Stacie McCoy has more than 25 years of experience directing and supporting early childhood education and non-profit family service programs in New England. For more than three years, she was fortunate to oversee her county’s Community Action Partnership Child and Family Services programs, including Head Start, Early Head Start, and Early Head Start Child Care Partnership programs, as well as CAPSC’s Healthy Families America and Comprehensive Family Support Services home visiting programs. She has supported adult education and parent journeys towards self-sufficiency, both as a program facilitator for the New Hampshire Employment Program’s Workplace Success Program and as a Learning and Development Specialist for Kaplan Higher Education. 

As New Hampshire team Lead in Washington DC, Stacie worked with the National Head Start Association and state lawmakers, advocating for Head Start families. She was later honored with an invitation from the National Center on Early Childhood Health and Wellness and the American Academy of Pediatrics to be a panelist at the “Understanding How the Opioid Crisis and Substance Use Disorders Impact Head Start Children, Families, and Staff: Creating a Path Forward” Workshop in Washington, D.C. Her passion for healing the victims of, and her community as a whole from, the impact of substance misuse lead her to her most recent position as executive director of a recovery meeting house that provides meetings and support groups for people in New Hampshire and southern Maine 365 days of the year.

Professional and personal experience drives Stacie’s belief that individuals and families are best able to heal, transform, and shine brightly when met with a compassionate, strength-based approach. Continuing on her mission to help others on that path, she is in the process of building a practice focusing on guiding couples, parents, and businesses through the complicated layers of friction and conflict toward healing, resolution, and wellness. 

Stacie lives in Rollinsford, New Hampshire, with her two amazing children and her guinea pig, Nan. She is an audiophile, an INFJ (Myers-Briggs says so), and is very much behind in editing the completed draft of her first book -- because she would much rather be on the sidelines and in the stands cheering wildly for her son and daughter. She can be reached at stacielynnmccoy@gmail.com  and found sharing very occasional, pithy blog posts at thedatingrookie.blogspot.com.
