I share creativity, mindfulness, and connection. You’ll find nature walks looking for pollinators, the songs on my playlists, bookish thoughts, creative projects, and adventures in my Jeep.

If you find beauty in everyday moments and embrace both the magic and the mess of life, you’ll feel at home here.

It’s a nod to my free-spirited side, one that I have to integrate with everyday life. I’ve always felt a pull toward nature, creativity, and peace-filled living, and “hippie chick” just stuck. Since my name is Stacy Jo, I love to sign posts or pages Stacy Joyfully.

Absolutely! Please share away (with credit and a link back here). The more kindred spirits find their way here, the better.

Yes, I love working with others who value creativity, and authenticity. Reach me through my contact page.

So many things: butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds in the garden, river-side hikes with my husband, a good book, music that inspires me, conversations with my kids, even the crazy stuff life throws our way.

Yes! I’m an avid daylily grower, and every Summer they put on a show in my yard. I love discovering new varieties and learning about their growth habits. Most of all, daylilies remind me of how beautiful life can be and of nature’s cycles.

Individuals make their own choices. I do not engage in drug culture, and I don’t drink alcohol. I’m a vegetarian (I cheat) and I have several tattoos. Most importantly, I have packed diverse experiences into my life and tried things not expected of me. And honestly, I can be high-maintenance.

Try every opportunity and unique experience sent your way. If it’s out of your comfort zone, you’ll learn the most. That is what being a Hippie Chick is about.
