Author and Stronger Girl Coffee founder Stacy Smith Rogers discovered the power of community in a unique story of entrepreneurship, grief and encouraging others to embrace their stories with strength, faith and boldness. Her former business, The Paddock Coffee + Eats + Gatherings, earned the 2021 Tourism Business of the Year award, just two years after opening in the midst of the pandemic and divorce. It became a source of hope and an example of perseverance for thousands of guests. In December of 2022, she sold the coffee shop to a non-profit that is continuing her hospitality model and brand as well as the mission to serve and inspire others. Her brand, Stronger Girl, is brewed for belonging and is a community where every woman's story is safe, and her strength is seen. Her signature retreat experience is the Stronger Girl Glampout which she hosts in Red River Gorge, Kentucky. Additionally, she authors a magazine on Substack -- spoiler alert, it's called Stronger Girl.
