Empowered Women.
Meaningful Connections.
Inspired Living.

Resilience is Your Superpower.

​

The 55+ stage of life isn't just a milestone—it’s a powerful transition. Whether you are navigating a major life change or simply looking for "what’s next," you deserve to feel confident and capable.

​

The Villages Empower Your Power Club was created in 2024 by Club Leader Nancy Stampahar to help women residents reclaim their narrative and make this chapter their best chapter.  EYP focuses on the art of living, bouncing back, providing the tools and community needed to embrace life’s joys and turn life’s challenges into steppingstones for growth. EYP is about more than just "getting by" and playing golf, pickle ball, or dancing in the squares; EYP is about thriving with a renewed sense of purpose and a spirit that refuses to settle. Heck Yeah!

​

At Empower Your Power Club, we gather women residents who are ready to let go of what doesn't fit them anymore and move forward towards what does. We gather women who are ready to stop playing small and start living a life fueled by passion, strength, and intentionality. Regardless of your relationship or retirement status, you belong here. We welcome all women, regardless of where they are along their journey and will meet you wherever you are. Whether you are discovering your inner power for the first time or living fully empowered, you belong here. 

​

Our Heart & Purpose

​

We believe life after 55 isn’t about slowing down.

🌷 Mission Statement

​

5 Core Pillars of Empower Your Power

​

1) Self-Focus Self-awareness is a catalyst for change. Knowing what you stand for helps you make empowered decisions to live your life authentically and intentionally. It’s time to practice healthy selfishness and take care of yourself unconditionally. We bring about self-awareness for you to bring self-development into your daily living.

​

2) Resilience with Grace  Changes and losses are inevitable as we age. We provide the mindset shifts, tools, and inspiration to help you navigate setbacks and emerge stronger and more resilient than before.

​​

3) Unshakeable Confidence Confidence isn't reserved for the young. It’s earned through experience. We help you own your story and step into every room with a sense of authority and self-worth.

​​

4) Purposeful Living Retirement, empty nesting, widowhood, or body aches and pains don’t mean slowing down. Purposeful living means choosing where your energy goes. Discover new interests and create a legacy of fulfillment.

​

5) Transformation Shifts Nothing changes unless something changes. Empowered women make tweaks to their daily habits and routines for healthy transformative shifts in their lifestyle.
