Founder Cendie Stanford
Why Beyond1Eighty™
Cendie created Beyond1Eighty™ from a simple belief: important public health messages should not just be delivered. They should travel first class.
A 180° turn changes direction. Beyond1Eighty goes further, helping turn information into experiences that can change what people learn, feel, think, talk about, and ultimately do. Cendie serves as a translator, connector, and experience designer — bringing together education, entertainment, creativity, evidence, and lived experience to make complex public health issues easier to understand, remember, discuss, and act on.
Why the Bees?
The bees represent the people who carry the message forward. Just as bees move pollen from place to place, Beyond1Eighty™ creates experiences that help important ideas travel from person to person and community to community. A meaningful encounter becomes a conversation. A conversation creates awareness. Awareness influences action. Action spreads.

Much bigger than her 15/15 ACE score
That's 15 of 15 on the expanded ACEs Matter survey — and 10 of 10 on the standard ACE survey.
Immersed in the insights of childhood trauma research, Cendie found a resonance with her own life journey, sparking a career dedicated to translating and simplifying this research for universal comprehension.
“I act with urgency. I raise the voices from the pages of the research that our tax dollars paid for. I couple that with the stories of the lived experience survivors I meet — that’s what I do and you could do it too.”
