Born into chaos, addiction, and abuse, I was forged in fire and refined by faith.
Today, I guide women to rise boldly, speak truthfully, and walk with God.
This isn’t about perfection—it’s about power through grace.
This is an ecosystem where women regardless of our faults, disbeliefs, or perceived limitations can come together in fierce support of letting go of “why is this happening to me” and boldly step into a movement of “why is this happening for me” and live the magic inside as believers God has created us to experience.
I am Bella Verita, born Stephanie Ann Vehon – a name etched into a storm of dysfunction, addiction, trauma, and chaos. My mother was a sex addict bound to cycles of abuse. My father, a Vietnam war veteran, was swallowed by drugs, alcohol, and PTSD. I didn’t escape that storm… I chose it. God placed me there for a divine reason – to remember: I DECIDE who I am. And I chose to rise.
Bella Verita means Beautiful Truth – my legally chosen name and my soul’s commitment to the world. I didn’t just rewrite my name; I rewrote my destiny.
I grew up severely dyslexic. I barely graduated from high school with a 1.7 GPA. In my adolescence, I made reckless choices in the years I was far from God — selling drugs, driving under the influence, lying and being lied to, cheating and being cheated on. I used my body to feel seen, hoping it would make me feel worthy. I gave myself away, only to be violated, used, and manipulated.
And I’ve been judged – harshly.
I’ve been condemned by women who’ve done more drugs than me in high school, yet wear halos of hypocrisy. I’ve been scorned by women who’ve falsely accused men of inappropriate sexual advances to gain the attention of another man. I’ve been vilified by those who use their children as pawns – not to live God’s plan, but to construct a life of control and manipulation.
And if you’re reading this to find fuel to destroy me, here’s my message:
“Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone.” – John 8:7
No weapon formed against me shall prosper. My past is not your ammunition. It is my anointing. I was forged in fire, made divine by grace, and I walk in truth with God.
In 2023, when I was diagnosed with cancer, everything changed. I had built five thriving businesses and was the #1 business broker in Nevada. But when cancer called, I answered – with surrender, not fear. And from that moment on, I rose in a new way.
Since then, I’ve…
I am far from perfect. I’ve made countless mistakes. But every day, I recommit at a higher faithful level. I choose truth. I choose growth. I choose God.
I walk with fun energy, but don’t mistake my joy for weakness. I embody goddess energy – soft, fierce, radiant. I channel Zeus energy – decisive, protective, wild, unstoppable. My story is no longer about survival. It’s about spiritual dominion through divine grace.
As I look back at anything and everything that has happened in my life, I can see where the enemy tried to destroy my life. And it would have if I didn’t believe that God truly had a greater purpose for my life.
No matter where you are in life. No matter if you are the top-level CEO of the most enormous corporation struggling with day-to-day stress or you’re a homeless woman living in a shelter trying to get your life together.
Jesus said in verse John 5:8 Get up and walk.
This is what we are doing here. We get up, walking in faith and believing, “This is happening for me.”
