Stephanie Davonne; Palm Tree Bae: if you’re giving make sure it’s coming from a genuine place and when you want something state what you want.

1. Introduce yourself(tell about yourself & who you are)

I’m Stephanie Davonne; Palm Tree Bae! Find me on YouTube and subscribe. I’m a Washingtonian that moved to South Florida in 2018. I needed to release the city life and the past. I needed a breath of fresh air, literally.

2. What are your passions in life that you’ve always wanted to do?

I wouldn’t speak much, but I can remember role playing in the mirror as a little girl. I would get dressed up in my mother’s clothing and pretend to be the people I saw on television. That’s when my family would hear me talk the majority of the time. So I wanted to be some type of public personality. I just always wanted the spotlight. 

3. What are some goals in life you’d like to complete?

I want to own an estate, raising free emotionally intelligent children. (I have a beautiful 13-year-old and I want more children.) I would like to build a legacy based on that with a special person. I also want a boat and to expand my traveling business. And I want to expand my social media platform and reach millions of people.

4. What is a positive message you’d like to share with people around the world?

I used to think things were impossible to obtain until I started to take leaps of faith. So, I strongly suggest never underestimating your ability to change your environment for the better.

5. If you could describe a perfect world what would it look like to you?

People simply having compassion and having good intentions would make a better world. I’ve always thought if you’re giving make sure it’s coming from a genuine place and when you want something state what you want.

6. What are some mental struggles you’ve faced in life and how did you overcome them?

Self-doubt is what I struggled with in the past. I am kinder to myself. I tell myself positive affirmations every day and remind myself of how far I’ve come. Another mental struggle I’ve faced was ruminating on the past. I had to sever ties with family, friends, and other acquaintances to obtain my dignity. When I released past energies and people, I started to see how beautiful life has been all along.

7. How would you like to make an impact in the world if you could?

I simply want to show people how it’s appropriate to be kind to yourself and others. I want to be living proof of someone who had a humbled past to someone living their best life without being in survival mode.
