She founded the Stephanie Decker Foundation, which provides prosthetic devices to children and adults who don't have access to advanced prosthetic care. She was named one of L'Oreal's 2014 Women of Worth Honorees and was nominated for the Betty Jane France Humanitarian Award for her foundation work.

Her story connects deeply with audiences facing organizational change, personal setbacks, or high-pressure environments.

Audiences learn how to overcome adversity by shifting perspective, techniques for finding inner strength during challenging periods, and methods for cultivating a solution-focused mindset.
