HER Values

What we stand on.

i.

Passionate About Community

We're dedicated to creating connections and a sense of belonging — inspiring one another and offering shared support to build each other up.

ii.

Dependably Trustworthy

Trust is the basis of all relationships. We build it through accountability, dependability, and integrity — with our members and our community.

iii.

Bold & Strong

Empowering others means taking chances, reaching out, and pushing outside the comfort zone. This is how growth and independence are born.

iv.

Positively Joyful

Acknowledge the wins — big and small — in yourself, in each other, and in our community. Take a moment to celebrate.

Room for every woman.

We provide a space for women who need or desire support — those looking to elevate their professional and personal growth, receive additional education, and everything in between.

Workshops for self-sufficiency, coworking space for aspiring entrepreneurs, a hygiene pantry, support groups, and a warm hand-off resource program for private, personal relief. We spread a wide net with all-inclusive offerings.

Our founder & CEO

AmBee Stephens

Founder & Chief Empowerment Officer

In 2018, EmpowHERment was founded in response to a profound personal loss — the passing of AmBee's father. What began as a virtual platform grew into a nurturing space for women to connect, inspire, and mutually uplift one another, and in 2020 the EmpowHERment Community Center opened in Clearwater, Florida.

AmBee Stephens, MNM, embodies passion, purpose, and perspective. As the visionary behind The Purpose Chaser and author of Hello Somebody, she helps others transform pain into purpose. Her foundation is rooted in faith, with Psalm 23 as her guiding light.

"Empowering one another is how we create long-term success — together."

Meeting and learning from other women who were there to support and encourage me made a huge difference. The Academy gave me the jump-start I needed to get back on track — and I see a clear path forward.
