Hey - We are Tame Wellness. Shelby Newberry and Stephanie Pierce
Hello, my name is Stephanie and I am 33 years old. I moved to Winter Park over four years ago. I love to snowboard, snowshoe, kayak, hike, raft, and spend time with my friends and family. I spent 16 years caught in the grips of an addiction that almost took everything from me. On September 1, 2017 I decided enough was enough.
I turned my life around, worked hard for everything I have, did a lot of inner work, and found a new way to exist on this Earth. I am studying for my Bachelor's degree in Correctional Program Support Services with a focus in chemical dependency. I work full time at the Winter Park Resort and love my new role as co-founder and executive director of Tame Wellness.
Hey, I'm Shelby. I am a native of Grand County. I am beyond grateful to have gotten the opportunity to grow up here. I grew up active in sports and left the valley after High School to live of all over. I struggled with alcoholism for the majority of my adult life. It was when I discovered yoga, that I learned how to release stored trauma, heal my PTSD, and help alleviate my symptoms of alcoholism. From there, I came to appreciate our body's natural ability to heal itself.
While I studying for a Master's in Addiction Counseling, I was also taking a yoga teacher training. The material I was studying, and physical changes I experienced while practicing yoga, I felt resonated with me more so than offering traditional talk therapy. That lead me to take yoga trainings for about 2 years. I then got certified to teach as a RYT500 with 25 hr certs in trauma-sensitive yoga.
I am honored to have opened Tame with Stephanie Pierce, who has since taken charge. I am happy in my role as a board member and being able to work behind the scenes.
