Stella Amador

Stella Amador is a poet, cultural programmer, and community builder based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. She is the founder of Bloom by Stella and Wild Bloom Poetry, a recurring poetry and arts series dedicated to creating accessible, reflective, and inclusive cultural experiences rooted in nature, mindfulness, and human connection.

Her work blends poetry, facilitated reflection, and community engagement, offering programming that invites participants to slow down, listen, and reconnect with their inner lives. Drawing from her original PLANT Framework—Prioritize, Learn, Act, Nurture, and Take Care—Stella designs poetry-based workshops, readings, and interactive experiences that support emotional well-being, creative expression, and civic connection.

Stella has curated and led literary programming for libraries, cultural institutions, galleries, and public spaces throughout South Florida. Her events range from guided poetry workshops and themed readings to community open mics and interdisciplinary collaborations with musicians and visual artists. Her programming is adaptable for diverse audiences, including adults, students, creatives, and the general public.

In addition to her live programming, Stella is the author of PLANT Your Life Planner, a reflective literary planner that integrates poetry, psychology-informed prompts, and nature-inspired practices to encourage intentional living. Her work emphasizes presence over performance and reflection over urgency, offering an alternative to productivity-driven wellness narratives.

Stella’s artistic practice centers on accessibility, authenticity, and emotional literacy. Through her work, she aims to cultivate spaces where creativity becomes a tool for self-awareness, resilience, and community belonging.
