                                  She has also been a trainer or presenter in on the radio, in Michigan and in Europe.  What does she talk about?  What we are learning here in Dane County and what we can share with others.  You can watch or listen to news about the TimeBanking movement here and around the world by clicking the links on this page. 

                                  Stephanie talks about time and money--how we can rethink and redesign the way we exchange services.  To learn more, read about it on our Facebook page.
