Hi I am Stephanie Kegley!

I am not one to talk about myself, so writing this is hard, but here we go. I have been in marketing for over ten years, and I am pretty good at it. I have a psychology degree from Texas Christian University and will forever bleed purple.  

Fifteen years ago, my life forever changed.

I was almost killed by someone who I loved dearly and who I thought, loved me. In that moment, as I was fighting for my life, my brain altered. No one speaks about the aftermath of such a traumatic events and what it can do to a person. I like to explain it this way- my brain, betrayed me and I developed PTSD, a panic disorder and Agoraphobia. This is what lead me to study Psychology. This is the moment my true passion was born. Although, I did many things to help domestic violence and survivors- I put off the true work I wanted to do in it (books, classes, seminars and more). I felt like I needed to learn more, be more, beat the mental illnesses before I could do something about it- which I have on most levels.  

Fast forward to February 22, 2022 I posted a missing flyer for Marissa Grimes. A woman I view as my sister. The very next day, I got the call that brought me to my knees. My sisters body was located and her murderer was in custody. 

So as I type this at 2:00am, it is time for me to stop putting off what I was meant to do. I am raging war on our judicial system when it comes to protecting victims of violence. I am working on many things to bring true awareness, protection, and help to victims of violence.

We will be creating a foundation in honor of Marissa Grimes, and I cannot wait to share that with everyone. I am honored, that I get to be a part of it. 

I want to thank every survivor who has trusted me with their story. I have partnered with several foundations as well (more Information on them will be found throughout the website). It will take all of us to make this change. 

​

It is time to get to work!
