Guest on The Empowered Grief Journey

Stephanie was a guest on the Empowered Grief Journey podcast, where she shared her journey of moving on from a narcissistic marriage, the power of living with authenticity, and how trusting the unknown can open the door to resilience, healing, and lasting joy.

In this episode of The Empowered Grief Journey, Chris Mamone sits down with Stephanie Carmody, a brand and celebrity publicist whose career spanned over two decades in New York, Boston, and Los Angeles. From working at red carpet events like the Country Music Awards and the Daytime Emmys, to working alongside icons like Kevin Hart, John Legend, and Martha Stewart, Stephanie built a career defined by connection and creativity.

But when life invited her into a bold reinvention, Stephanie chose to follow her heart into a new chapter. Today, she’s the host of Second Act Sessions, a podcast dedicated to exploring life’s transitions, messy breakthroughs, and rediscovering peace and purpose after change.

Join us as Stephanie shares her story of transformation away from her narcissistic ex husband, to what she learned about authenticity along the way, and how embracing the unknown can open the door to resilience, healing, and joy.
