A Commitment Beyond Business

Building Impact, Adding Value, and Fostering Capacity

“Stephanie is one of the most vibrant people I’ve ever met. With one meeting, I knew she was something special. She is a passionate go-getter with tons of ideas that come to fruition if you believe in her and follow her lead. Her storytelling is genuine and heavily researched to allow for excellent readability with informative, factual details. She is a great communicator, quick and concise, which to me is number one. Her coaching is sincere and direct so that you leave her session knowing exactly what to do on your end to get the ball rolling. I’m so glad I met her as I see her as a mentor for my own business dealings: how to motivate, how to inspire, how to communicate and how to BELIEVE IN YOURSELF! I highly recommend calling Stephanie if you are looking to take your business or organization to the next level!”

In the Media

Stephanie firmly believes that success isn’t measured solely by professional accomplishments. True success encompasses the ability to make a tangible difference in the lives of those around us. By actively participating in community boards, leveraging her skills, and applying her strategic mindset, she aspires to create a lasting, positive impact in the community.

At Take Roots, we’re not just passionate about what we do professionally; we’re equally passionate about sharing our expertise and commitment to make a meaningful difference in the community, guided by Stephanie’s vision. It’s our way of giving back, building capacity, and contributing to a brighter future. Together, let’s build a stronger and more vibrant community, one strategic step at a time.

Appointed in May 2023, Stephanie was selected from a diverse array of service providers and entrepreneurs in the Edmonton region to the Edmonton Regional Innovation Network’s Steering Committee. This committee represents a wide spectrum of service providers who collectively share a common mission: to accelerate the growth of Edmonton’s innovation ecosystem.

Stephanie’s involvement with the ERIN Steering Committee is more than a commitment; it’s a reflection of her dedication to our community. Her role aligns perfectly with her passion for community service and her professional know-how in strategy, communication, and capacity building.

We recognize the importance for charities and non-profits to excel with their fund development program, to raise much-needed funds to advance their mission and deliver programming to deserving clients. We also understand that budgets are tight and the need to do more with less is the norm and not the exception. That’s why we created the Take Roots Community Give Back Program.

Charities and non-profits can apply to receive strategic counsel from Take Roots on a fund development project at 50% of the standard rate. We only accept up to three (3) clients per calendar year. Applications are accepted on a quarterly basis.
