VI: Stephanie Napolitano from Amplified Beauty & Wellness DEFINING: A Life Well Lived

Hello! My name is Stephanie Napolitano and I own and operate Amplified Beauty & Wellness located at 114 E. Elm Street in downtown River Falls, WI. I offer a custom salon experience catered to your unique needs. All my practices are done in the light with the highest intention for my clients and myself—ethically and responsibly. 

My definition of a Life Well Lived has evolved over the last few years. The year 2020, brought on radical change for all of us, but I experienced a tragedy in 2021/2022 that changed the trajectory of my life. My mom became ill, and I needed to travel across the country multiple times to be with her. Fortunately, I was at my mother’s bedside holding her hand as she took her last breath. These experiences have shaped me and put life into a completely different perspective. 

Life’s challenges have helped me figure out who I truly am and who I want to be. These experiences catapulted me into this role to help others with their own healing, and to share the wisdom that helped me through my own challenging times. I am so grateful to be able to share these tools and gifts. 

At Amplified Beauty & Wellness, not only do I offer traditional, full haircare services, clients can receive energy work or extended scalp massage at the shampoo bowl. I also offer one hour energy healing services and a variety of breathwork detox sessions at the Well Space next door. I have created a transparent, gender neutral, flat rate fee, based off the time allotted. 

As a healer, I am assisting you in moving stagnant energy in the body, yet essentially, you’re healing yourself. I am a conduit working with God/Source/Higher Frequencies to assist you for your highest outcome. 

We take time to get our hair cut and colored, why not utilize this time to provide you with extra care and focus on your well-being while you’re a guest in the salon? Other like-minded stylists, own and operate as booth renters at Amplified Beauty & Wellness (not as energy practitioners) as well.

“If anything is worth doing, do it with all your heart.” - Buddha

A Life Well Lived—a definition everyone has their own perception of. What a beautiful gift we are given—a gift of individuality. No two people perceive life 100% the same way, and we get to share that with people around us. It broadens our minds and hearts. 

Defining a Life Well Lived holds so much power for it’s a piece of you and your truth. I am so honored to share mine. Here are some ways I define a Life Well Lived:

-Slowing down, being present, and enjoying simple pleasures helps us navigate life with more clarity.

-Showing up fully as the best version of yourself every day, even though some days will be hard, do the best you can with what you have.

-Leading with your heart, make decisions from this space versus in your head. Lead with love and compassion even if you might not understand why.

-Taking chances and challenging yourself to do things outside of your comfort zone. Fear of failure or embarrassment should not hinder your true purpose.

-Fully expressing yourself and allowing yourself to be seen for who you are is your superpower! Shine your light and share your uniqueness. 

-As important as it is to challenge yourself, I equally believe in the importance of taking care of yourself. What does taking care of yourself look like? Examples that work for me:

  1. I give myself permission to take time to do what I want to do. 

  2. I try that new thing, new class, whatever it is.

  3. I say no if I really don’t want to.

  4. I say yes if I do!

  5. I spend time outside, walking, grounding, or moving my body.

  6. I honor what brings me peace and joy, but also honor sadness, grief, pain, and anger. These are human emotions that should be felt, not suppressed. By expressing them, we are fully alive. 

  7. I acknowledge my needs, fill my cup, and then I can give to others. If it is empty, it serves no-one. Think about it. When you feel good, you are able to BE better—all the way around, in every area.

My cup overflows when I can help and serve people and to share my wisdom/life hacks to those wanting to know more. I do believe so strongly in kindness, compassion, and integrity.
