From Amy:

Amy Stone is a coach or mentor, author and podcaster. She is the creator of The Art of Imperfect Adulting and Stepparent Success School. Amy understands that being a grown up can sometimes be tougher than expected. In her own experience “adulting” she sometimes struggled to find the education, support and community she was looking for and so she began to do her part to create those resources for herself and others.
