The list will be updated as Shannon learns more about the needs of the local community. Thank you for your support.

In this episode of Having a Mom Moment, Shannon sits down with Stephanie Patton Jones, an inspiring artist, military spouse, and mom who took the leap from a corporate career to following her passion for painting. Stephanie shares her journey of self-discovery through the challenges of solo parenting during her husband’s deployment, balancing her art business with motherhood, and building a supportive community of fellow military spouses. With an unwavering belief in pursuing passions, she offers advice on embracing creativity, seeking help, and showing our kids that we can do what we love. Join us as Stephanie reminds us of the beauty in following your calling—even when it means redefining your path as a mom.

About Stephanie:
"After years of working in corporate America I was burnt out and grumpy. My husband was deployed, and I needed an outlet that could help me release the stress of solo parenting while he was gone - so I picked up my brushes again.

After not having painted in over four years paintings just kept pouring out of me. I quickly realized this was something I finally needed to pursue full time. Little me would be so happy to know I finally followed my dream of being a full-time working artist.

You'll often find me in my home studio with my three critters (Sweet Pea our little black kitty, Roxy the Doxy and Teeny my toddler).

If you are interested in adding a touch of nature's beauty to your home or office, I invite you to explore my collection of original paintings or prints. Each artwork is meticulously crafted with attention to detail and a commitment to quality. From serene marshes to majestic mountains, there is a piece that will resonate with your personal aesthetic."
