Stephanie V.

Today we’re getting under the hood with Stephanie Vincent a mother, grandmother, community organizer, activist, functional fitness trainer, and lifelong leader whose work lives at the intersection of personal and collective liberation.

Her path has always braided multiple callings at once. As a blogger, writer, and life coach, she’s helped people reimagine self-image, embrace self-love, and live from a place of worth beyond appearance — all while building her career as a functional fitness trainer and creating youth fitness programs, including nonprofit partnerships to ensure every child can participate.

At the same time, she has led spaces for deep emotional and spiritual work in community — work that fuels her activism and is rooted in the belief that personal liberation and the fight for justice are inseparable.

In 2020, during the racial justice uprising, Stephanie founded Community for Change Montgomery County — first as a protest movement and now as a hyper-local grassroots network rooted in shared values, mutual aid, and community power. Today, Community for Change connects neighbors, builds resilience, and organizes resistance to protect the safety, dignity, and rights of all people in Montgomery County.

Stephanie’s work refuses to choose between inner and outer change — knowing that how we care for ourselves, each other, and our communities is the foundation for the world we’re building.
