Stephanie Lyra

Hi, I'm Stephanie.

Most of my friends just call me "woo-woo Steph."

I was born and raised in NYC to a Brazilian immigrant family. I'm a multi-passionate creator with one foot in Hollywood and one foot in Spirit. By day, I built a career as a 3x Emmy-nominated editor and Peabody winner, working in television. By morning, I was channeling messages, giving readings, and quietly trusting my gift.

I'm still an editor. And I also mentor the next generation of storytellers at the university level.

After embracing my role as a medium, the two worlds finally met. With over 35 countries traveled and countless souls mentored, I've spent years helping people trust their own guidance with a carefree, down-to-earth style that feels more like a conversation than a session.

For years, friends kept asking me to connect them with healers, readers, and guides, and I never had a single, trusted place to send them.

The spiritual world felt either too out of reach, too expensive, or too unverified. I knew it could be better. So I built it.

thewuwu is a modern, trusted home for spiritual seekers. A place to find vetted lightworkers, real community, and tools to help you trust the version of you that already knows.

The name is a love letter. To the nickname my friends gave me, and to a more modern version of "woo-woo." Grounded. Approachable. Normal. Not up in the clouds, right here, earthbound.
