Some of you know that I’ve been an astrologer in private practice for (GULP) 20 years (cheers to Gen X, we been around). What you may not believe is that in all this time, I have never once asked any of my thousands of clients for a testimonial. I know, it’s ridiculous.
Since I’ve had a steady stream of clients via word-of-mouth and many return clients, it never entered my mind. Marketing? I don’t know her. Along with my busy career as a writer and for the last few years, as a certified clinical sexologist/sex coach, I wasn’t able to find time or even allow the weird 21st-century concept of “self-promotion” to enter my mind.
This is just to say that’s why I’m just now doing this thing. My beautiful clients have given me a lot of praise over the years, but rather than formalizing it and putting it up on my site or socials, I just took the love and stored it in my heart (and if you wrote it, I lost track of the email, I apologize).
So, if you know me and love me, have worked with me once, come back once a year, are a regular weekly/monthly client, or even a reader of my books or other writing, I would be ever so grateful for a little, simple shout-out. I made a form so you can do this in less than 3 minutes.
As the Moon in Aries comes closer to a conjunction with Chiron in my 7th house tonight, I’m putting myself out there in a way that makes me SUPER UNCOMFORTABLE, but y’all can help me heal this wound by saying nice things. :)
With my book Sex and Your Stars: A Sexologist’s Guide to the Erotic Energy of the Zodiac (available for pre-order!!) coming out next summer, I’m trying to get my shit together and promote myself, mostly because my closest beloveds have been screaming STEFANIE OH MY GOD, GET OVER YOUR SHYNESS AND SHOWCASE YOUR WORK ALREADY!!!
Next thing I have to start doing is making TIKTOKS, of all things, so if any of you are well-versed in this, I’m looking for someone to trade astrology readings or ongoing mentoring for help with this Strange New World. Are you a Gen Z human who is a genius at editing video and can help me do this without wanting to disappear into the ether forever? Please contact me!
