Who We Are

"You are truly amazing! 😍 Can't wait for you to plan our next event!"

My name is Gracie Stefaniak. I go by Grace, Gracie and my main nick name is Tracie (but no need to call me that ;) ).

I am 28 years young and have a Bachelors Degree in Fashion Merchandising that I earned at Southern Illinois University of Carbondale.

I am the owner of Be Conscious but could not do it without my awesome teammates!

My college years are were I found my love for hosting. I have attended, executed, and planned many events over the years. Where I have gained knowledge in providing a certain hospitality to your specific event.

Every event is different. Never be sorry for what you want at your event.

Meet Allie, she is the one who helps advise all these events I love to take on. She just so happens to be my sister too!

I get so caught up in the planning and she helps me financially budget my events and writes/files all my contracts.

Other than tending to my financial needs she is a traveling to dive shops all over the mid-west to order and educate dive shop owners of the new scuba equipment. When she isn’t traveling she is training and certifying new scuba divers.

Why The Name?

At first I wanted to start a website/blog about Fashion and showing and helping people become more conscious on the outfits they pick out and not go straight into being discouraged. If you are more aware and conscious of what clothes and colors look better with your complexion and figure then you will love what you are wearing a lot more.

Then, I added a tab and that was the lifestyle tab. I want to help and show people how they can make little changes at a time to help them live a healthier and active lifestyle. I love to cook and I like to research and educate myself of healthier ingredients to use when cooking.

Now, I am taking another tab on and that is my Event planning inside of me coming out. I have planned many small fun parties over the last couple years that I just did because I like doing it. Being able to come up with all different creative ideas for different events and personalities excites me. I have now done birthdays, weddings, baby showers, bachelorette parties, anniversaries, ect. You name it I can do it J

With all of these creative ideas I have I can be helpful and guiding in many different aspects. So, my question is What are you looking for?
