Why Work with My Enemies?

I challenge you to find me more than one bright, creative, driven man/woman who doesn’t have Enemies that play with their potential, their sense of humor, and their peace of mind.   Everything looks great on the outside, yet behind closed doors, they struggle with taking their gift and potentiating.

Spiritually minded men and women like you know that they came here to do more, be more; They know that they are more and have more to offer….So why aren’t they doing it fully?

Are you at the point where you are ready to step beyond the Enemies in your way and grow a strategy that allows you to be the amazing, fully potentiated person with a Greater Destiny & Potential you were born to be?

You have arrived at the right moment and I welcome you into a unique coaching that will take you to the center of your dreams.

About Stephanie Shipper

For the past 33 years, I have worked with the complex relationship between people with enormous Divine potential and the Enemies of Progress and Potential that assault their full success.

My mission in life is to live up to my Divinely given potential through helping as many people as possible to do the same! Having lived through many of life’s impossible situations… I personally know that you can look the Enemy in the eye and beat the Enemy at his own game!

It is my honor and delight to help spiritually-based professionals recognize and conquer their Enemies of Potential so that they can fully engage their Divinely-intended potential and achieve more professionally and personally.

I have thousands of hours of study, decades of experience working with clients, degrees, certificates and other impressive qualifications. What I am most proud of, however, is the life I have lived, the struggles I’ve moved past, and what I have been able to example for others as a result of a huge measure of perseverance, grit, and Divine grace.

How Did I Get Here?

“Deep in my heart, I do believe…that we shall overcome (with grace and grit)!” Black Spiritual

I grew up with incredibly courageous people. My parents owned Alabama’s largest weekly newspaper and were on the leading edge of the Civil rights movement. Our dinner table was always filled with southern writers and prominent civil rights leaders. At the age of 10, I witnessed my father refuse to run a full-page ad for a Ku Klux Klan rally. I never fully understood until my later years how incredibly dedicated my parents were to human freedoms.

The mantra I heard again and again at the kitchen table was; “Stephanie, what are you going to do to change the world today? It is your personal responsibility.” That mantra has stuck with me my whole life and even now is a constant reminder of what I do and why I do it. My parents never asked whether we were going to change the world for the better…the only question was how soon are you going to do it? 

Growing up in the heart of the Civil rights movement in Alabama…I saw many freedoms granted to so many people. Yet, what I witnessed was that many people remained imprisoned. Not by outside forces, but by their own fears, phobias, & limiting beliefs.

I especially remembered the words of Nelson Mandela, “If I walked out of prison after 22 years still hating the people who had imprisoned me, then I was still imprisoned.”

It was possible to have the right to vote, own property, express yourself, and go to school….but if you hated yourself and others, and saw your limits as your life, then you had no real freedom or lasting personal success; you still fell short of your Divinely-intended potential.

Seeing this helped me to realize that there are Enemies constantly at work within us…all of us. Equally attacking all genders, races, and people of all educational levels, rich and poor alike. It doesn’t matter how good and bright you are, where or how you were raised, or what freedoms and privileges have been given to you. Everyone has internal enemies (fears). I call these the Enemies of your Potential.

I’ve had my own very real and emotional interactions with the Enemies of Potential. My Enemies have attacked fiercely and frequently throughout my life. These interactions have helped me to form a very effective foundation for conquering the enemies that confront every human. No one is without fears and limitations.
