Get ready for this revealing, honest, real conversation with rockstar Plastic Surgeon (and my reconstructive surgeon…..which we talk about) Dr. Stephenie Poris (aka) The Stiletto Surgeon, the only female double board-certified plastic surgeon in Orlando who owns and operates her own practice. 
She is giving us an inside look at the world of plastic surgery along with her inspiring path to success.
Discover what drove Dr. Poris to pursue a career in the male-dominated field of plastic surgery and how she built a thriving practice focused on empowering women.  She also shares valuable insights into selecting a plastic surgeon (you’ll definitely want to take notes) and the trending procedures.  
Bio: 
I am a Floridian, born and raised in Satellite Beach near Cape Canaveral. I grew up a competitive cheerleader and figure skater with a love of science and the outdoors. My childhood experiences taught me the values of precision, poise, humility and respect. Becoming a surgeon was a natural choice as these values are the very backbone of training and practice. I pursued my passion and received my Bachelor of Science in Biology at the University of Florida. While in college, I had the chance to intern in plastic surgery at the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio. It was then I realized I must become a plastic surgeon. I was enthralled by the intricacies and details of their surgeries and enamored by the dissection and surgical outcomes. Like an artist, the human body became the canvas, and the scalpel became a brush. Having my goal in mind, I remained true to my Florida roots and continued my medical education at Florida State University where I graduated and started the long journey through surgical training.
I spent five incredible years in general surgery residency with some of the nation’s best surgeons at Advent Health in Orlando, Florida. From there, it was time for a change of seasons as I matched in a plastic surgery fellowship at Summa Health in Akron, Ohio. I have completed all surgical training, and I am currently board-certified in general surgery and board-certified in plastic surgery. I look forward to sharing my talent and passion with you all as your newest plastic surgeon in Orlando, Florida!

Amy Lacey is passionate, driven, faith-filled and laser focused!  What once was her challenge has become her triumph growing not one but two health focused brands.  You may have heard of Cali’flour Foods, that started at Amy’s kitchen table, growing steadily at farmers markets, and then mainstream retail in just about every major grocery chain.  She sold Cali’flour in 2019, making her part of the top 1% of women business owners to exit a company with an 8 figure deal.  She is now in a new chapter of life, creating a holistic health focused product line around Superfood, Soursop….and she is just getting started.  In this episode we dive deep into where it all started and where she is now.  
Bio:
 Amy Lacey is a serial entrepreneur, innovator, best-selling author, keynote speaker and business mentor. In 2016, after being diagnosed with Lupus, Amy launched Cali’flour Foods and introduced the first cauliflower pizza crust to the market when only a head of cauliflower could be found in grocery stores. The brand took the food industry by storm, going from farmers markets to grocery stores across America, and spearheading what would become a billion dollar industry category. Cali’flour was the number 1 pizza crust sold on Amazon for 16 months straight from 2018-2019. The product won several awards including KeHE Best New Product in 2018 and was featured in Food and Beverage Magazine, OK! Magazine, GQ, Good Housekeeping, as well as one of “Whoopi’s Favorite Things” on The View. The products were also seen at the ESPY, Teen Choice, the Emmys, NY Food Show, as well as many other
traditional food shows. Amy sold the majority of Cali’Flour in late 2019 and became one of the top 1% of women business owners to exit a company with an 8 figure deal. Amy is now trailblazing the path towards a brand new innovative health and wellness product with her new company, Beyond Medicine, founded in 2023. This new company is on a mission to highlight one of the world’s greatest superfoods that most people don’t even know exists yet. She is introducing a new category of superfood to the market and paving the way for a new era of self-care and wellbeing that prioritizes the body’s natural ability to be and stay healthy while enhancing the immune system’s armor against disease and illness. Up next alongside Beyond Medicine, Amy continues to collect her vast knowledge and experience in entrepreneurship into courses and programmes that make e-commerce easy for entrepreneurs. Her philanthropic mission includes supporting women founders, and she continues to be incredibly passionate about being involved in non-profit organizations that support children with cancer and
fighting against the sex trade. When she’s not innovating the next industry shaking product, you’ll find Amy at her home in Melbourne, Florida with her husband, her 3 children and their new puppy.

Social media is here to stay, Pandora’s box has been open so we need to learn how to manage it
When is a good time to give your kids access to social media? When you’re ready for them to watch porn.
It’s ok to give your child a phone that is just a phone, with no internet
If your kid is on a platform, you should be on it first to understand it so you can guide them
Sextortion is very real, so the conversations need to be real, creating safe space not shame or guilt
Giving your child a phone is a shared responsibility, it is your property that you have every right to look through and see who has access to your child through that device
We’re raising adults we need to bring honest conversations to establish strong foundations
Be mindful of your own phone usage, your kids are watching
They’ve expanded to online classes for a greater reach to help educate and give skills to more teens and parents
