From the bustling streets of Kathmandu to the serene landscapes of the Emerald Isle, her journey has been marked by a series of transformative experiences that continue to inspire many.
From Nepal to Emerald Isle: The Evolution of a Visionary
Stephanie's story begins at the age of 22 when a chance to stumble upon seven disabled women living in a tin shed in Nepal changes the course of her life. With just $200 in her pocket, she funded training programs for these women, igniting a movement that would eventually grow into Seven Women, a social enterprise that has since educated, trained, and employed over 5,000 women in Nepal. Stephanie's unwavering dedication to breaking the cycle of poverty is evident in the sustainable business models she champions—models that provide not just aid, but empowerment.
This ethos of sustainable impact is now at the heart of Stephanie’s latest endeavour: Irish Heritage Tours (Golden Crest). Scheduled to kick off in 2025, these tours aim to showcase the tapestry of heritage, offering a special mix of historical knowledge and authentic local experiences. Stephanie, a third-generation Irish descendant, has crafted these tours to go beyond the typical tourist path. Imagine guided tours where you not only visit iconic sites but also meet local guides and immerse yourself in the authentic Irish way of life. It’s not just about the sights; it’s about feeling the heartbeat of Ireland.
