READER, RUNNER, INFLEXIBLE YOGI

My background includes ghostwriting for a Nobel Prize winner in medicine and leading as executive editor of Sam’s Club’s Healthy Living Made Simple, a publication that reaches around 11 million readers. I’ve trained leaders from Starbucks, The Boeing Company, Intuit, and more. My coauthored book, Growing Influence, stood cover-to-cover on best-selling lists next to books Brené Brown and Stephen Covey. I’m also a TEDx speaker and have a master’s in writing and editing and a bachelor’s in writing.

Today, I live in Portugal with my stay-at-home-dad husband and two kids. We do life our way, and we’re loving every minute of it.

I’ve contributed to 100+ books throughout 15 years in business and impacted hundreds of thousands of people through my work.

I’ve been obsessed with writing and books since second grade. Today, I’m living my dream helping aspiring authors realize theirs.

As a child, I learned the power of writing and reading as a tool of influence, and knew my life path would somehow converge with the written word. Fast forward a few decades, and I’ve now been in business for 15 years, during which I lived on 4 continents, worked with hundreds of impact-makers, and had two incredible kids. In all that time, my vision never faltered: I knew I was meant to help people share their ideas through writing.

I’m Stacy Ennis, a book coach, best-selling author, and speaker on a mission to help you clarify your ideas and harness your unique story to make an impact.

About

love

Favorite reads: the little prince, the house on mango street, All the light we cannot see. 

Experiences like hiking Ta Kou Mountain to see the reclining Buddha in Mui Ne, Vietnam; being robbed at gunpoint in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic; tobogganing down the Great Wall of China; and most recently, taking in the charm of Portugal with its cliffs and beaches and cobblestone roads, all shape who I am and how I work. Spending time in different cultures has helped me develop an openness and desire to understand varied viewpoints, allowing me to connect authentically with people across the globe. 

Outside of doing meaningful work I love, I’m a lifelong runner, aspiring polyglot, and avid traveler. Most importantly, though, I’m a mama to two awesome kids and a wife to a supportive cyclist husband who grocery shops, cooks, and cares for the kids. We’ve flip-flopped typical American life on its head, and we love our location independent life.

Originally from Idaho, I’ve spent much of my adult life exploring the world, including living in the Dominican Republic, Vietnam, Thailand, and my current home of Portugal.
