Stacie Odeneal began her life as a weirdo in 1979 and continued as a respected but amateur weirdo for thirty years.
She turned pro weirdo in 2012 when she was gifted #cosmicsprinkles, a practice of acknowledging the pile of universal reassurances that we are exactly who we need to be, and exactly are where we need to be, no matter where we are going.
The gift of #cosmicsprinkles was just the encouragement Stacie needed to franchise her weirdness into all areas of existence.
She abandoned a mediocre attempt at legal domination to focus on her legal practice as a child welfare law specialist and attorney in rural middle Tennessee. In this weirdo capacity, she is invigorated as an advocate for children in foster care and adoptive families.
Which is how she found her own family of weirdos when she and her husband adopted three children from foster care. She calls them pirates because they talk funny, like to ride in boats, and steal things occasionally. It was cute at first. She now regrets that decision, wishing instead she had opted for something more “employed taxpayer” and less “mutiny all the time.” But names have a way of sticking, so she is stuck.
She now enjoys sharing her best tips for being your best weirdo as a teacher and public speaker, both in and out of the courtroom. She has developed a curriculum designed to help everyone find their best weirdo entitled “You Matter” as well as several tools and resources to navigate adoption and litigation for both lawyers and laypersons.
