About
My name is Stacy Pringle — and for as long as I can remember, women have found their way to me when they needed a place to finally speak freely. Not to be fixed. Not to be advised. But, simply to be heard.
Women who lead carry extraordinary responsibility. You hold vision, make decisions, and create stability for others — often without a space where your own voice can rest. Over time, I have seen how even the most capable, accomplished women can feel unseen as they quietly shoulder the emotional weight of leadership.
That is why I created a confidential listening and emotional support space for women leaders — a space where you are not required to perform, explain, or stay strong. Here, you are met with presence, discretion, and understanding.
I believe that when listening is offered with grace, healing unfolds naturally. When a woman is truly heard, clarity returns. Peace follows. Strength is restored — not through effort, but through release.
This work is more than a service. It is a calling. Guided by faith, I hold each conversation with reverence, believing that every voice deserves gentleness and every heart deserves rest.
Here, you do not need to lead or carry anyone else. You are invited simply to arrive — to be present, to be seen, and to be held through listening.
Stacy Pringle, MA
Founder, Certified Active Listener, Empathy Circle Facilitator, Presenter, Speaker, Podcaster, and Certified Women's Entrepreneur
Professional Foundation
My work is grounded in both lived experience and intentional preparation. I hold an AAS, BA, and MA, Certified Active Listener Certification, Empathy Circle Facilitation Certification, and a Women’s Entrepreneurship Certification from Cornell University and Bank of America, reflecting years devoted to the study of communication, leadership, and human connection.
Because active listening is foundational to trust and clarity, I also work with nonprofits, organizations, and corporations through thoughtfully designed workshops and presentations — supporting leaders and teams in strengthening communication, presence, and understanding.
This professional foundation quietly supports the heart of my work: creating spaces where women leaders feel safe, respected, and deeply heard.

How I Show Up for You
I listen not just to your words, but to what lives beneath them — the weight you carry, the things you cannot say anywhere else. You are truly understood here.
Non-judgment
There is no version of your story that will change how you are received in this space. You are welcome exactly as you are — messy, complicated, and beautifully human.
Confidentiality
Everything shared within our sessions stays within our sessions. This is your sanctuary. What you bring here is held with the utmost care, respect, and discretion.
Michele Pringle is a long-time, devoted educator in the Chicopee public school system and is highly skilled in active listening. She received her active listening training from 7 Cups Academy and her Bachelor of Science degree in Management from Westfield State University.

How the Work Unfolds
Everything I do is rooted in a simple but profound belief — that being truly heard can change a life. The Thoughtful Listener framework moves through six intentional steps: Listen, Understand, Resolve, Learn, Practice, and Transform. Each one builds on the last, gently guiding you from where you are toward the clarity, peace, and purpose you deserve.

"Today was an amazing experience. I got to spend an hour with Stacy Pringle and witness her gifts and talents. She is a 'safe place' of knowledge, acceptance and experience. Looking forward to connecting with her again."
- Jacqueline Mitchell, Jakoba Consulting, LLC
“All of my life, I have been the one to listen to others, even my name means listener. I didn't know what it was like to have someone just listen to me as I talked. And when I mean listen, I mean actively listen, not just listen to think about what they were going to say next. That is until I met Stacy. Not only did I feel like I could empty my heart to her, but I actually felt heard by her.”
- Samantha Hatcher, Well Led Parenting
"Stacy is like a soul whisperer. She has an extraordinary gift of making you feel heard, understood, and supported. She not only listens, but truly connects and engages in a way that leaves you feeling emotionally replenished. Truly extraordinary!"
