Hey! So nice to speak with you! Can you tell our readers a little bit more about yourself? Where are you originally from and where do you live now?

Stacy Echeverria. I'm originally from Southern California where I currently live and work.

Tell us one thing you love about where you live now?

Tell us a little bit more about what your company does and how it started? How does it help your customers?

My company was started over a decade ago, however, I've been focused on growing it since 2020. It was birthed out of my calling from the Lord to provide Christian counseling that guides individuals toward hope, healing, and freedom in Jesus Christ.

What was one feedback from a happy customer/client that you won’t forget about?

A client expressed how she felt safe in sharing her past hurts and experiences, and not judged. She said I made it easy for her to open up and share.

If someone wants to start a business, what's advice that will help them?

Know your why for starting your business and don't forget your why when there are times of struggle in your business.

Where do you see your company in the future?

I see my company growing to the point of being able to hire on more qualified and trained Christian Counselors.

What is the biggest misconception about your industry?

I believe a misconception about Christian Counseling is that the counselors don't have proper training. Many are clinically trained but add the component of faith in their counseling.

What has been one of your biggest struggle building your business and how did you deal with it?

Clients that sign on for counseling but then stop after a few months. I realize that not everyone is ready for the journey of healing. I do let them know that I'm here for them when they're ready to come back.

What was your favorite music artist and athlete growing up?

The group ABBA and the gymnast Nadia Comaneci.
