Who We Are

JILL STEPHENSON

Saying goodbye to Ben, her only child, caused Jill to make a commitment to honor his life for the rest of hers. Using her leadership skills and life wisdom, Jill has spoke to audiences around the country and founded and facilitated long standing charitable events since 2009. She has shared a message of hope and survival, helped to raised nearly $500,000 for our veterans and their families and has never lost an ounce of faith. Because Jill's son died while actively serving in the military, she has a heart for veterans and their families. Jill is also a certified grief coach and chaplain and believes it is her duty as a human to reach back and help those who come behind and face similar trials. It is important to know that others have walked in our shoes, we are never alone and are all

here to walk each other home. 

Jill lives in NW Arkansas and enjoys traveling wherever God sends her. She has visited all 50 states, embracing her nomadic spirit and finding joy in the people, the places and the journey of this beautiful, crazy life.
