Produced by Grammy-nominated Nash Overstreet, Stefanie Michaela Commands a New Chapter in Her Rise to Turning Pages
Raised on musical theater and driven by a lifelong love of storytelling, Stefanie’s voice blends classic soul with contemporary pop, echoing influences like Adele and Sara Bareilles. As a mother of five and lifelong creative, her work speaks to resilience, authenticity, and self-worth. — I’m Music Magazine
“There’s a warmth and naturalism in her tone that calls to mind the golden era of artists like Ashanti, but with a contemporary clarity that feels utterly of the moment. When the chorus lands — assertive, melodic, and dripping with low‑key swagger — it’s clear this is a song designed to stick.” — We Write About Music
“Although Michaela was born and raised in Los Angeles, the song has a soulful pop, New York at dusk, feel. The music is representative of her personal evolution as well as motivation for listeners to turn the pages in their own lives. It’s only the beginning of a new chapter for her. Turning Pages the EP, is set for release later this year.” — Core Magazines
Stefanie Michaela’s new single “Better With Time” is an empowering anthem for anyone who’s ever felt overlooked, underestimated, or told they were too late. Co-written and performed by Stefanie herself, the track was also written and produced by Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum musician Nash Overstreet—best known as a member of Hot Chelle Rae and for his work with artists like Britney Spears, Meghan Trainor, and Pitbull. Co-writer Cali Rodi (Keith Urban, Daya) adds further lyrical depth. Blending soulful pop with a polished modern edge, “Better With Time” makes one thing clear: Stefanie isn’t just catching up—she’s breaking through.
Built on a driving beat and sweeping melody, “Better With Time” delivers a powerful message: growth, creativity, and ambition don’t have an expiration date. “I wrote ‘Better With Time’ because I was deeply passionate about following my heart and dreams at this stage in my life,” Stefanie shares. “A dream I once thought I’d never return to came back full force—and now, I’m so eager to share it with the world. I want people to know it’s never too late to follow their dreams.”
From the instantly relatable first line—“Sipping my coffee, doomscrolling”—to the explosive, liberating chorus, Stefanie taps into the emotional clutter of modern life and reframes it as fuel for transformation: “Stop telling me act my age / Ain’t nothing but a number anyway… I keep getting better with time.”
“Better With Time” is both a personal statement and a universal call to action. It challenges societal timelines and dares listeners to own their evolution with pride and purpose. “No matter how busy life gets—with family, responsibilities, and everything in between—you can still make you a priority,” Stefanie adds. “Even just a little time each day can transform your mindset and energy. You deserve that joy.”
This is Stefanie’s third single release ahead of her highly anticipated debut EP, Turning Pages. Her first two singles—“Found in You” and “Stay in Your Lane”—were produced by legendary Grammy-winning producer Keith Thomas (Amy Grant, Selena, Vanessa Williams) and earned praise for their heartfelt lyrics and Stefanie’s captivating vocal delivery.
Backed by Overstreet’s sleek production and Rodi’s lyrical craftsmanship, Stefanie delivers a track that’s confident, grounded, and brimming with self-awareness. “It’s the kind of song that makes you want to roll down the windows and shout it from the rooftop,” she says. “We kept it fun and meaningful in the studio, and that balance comes through in every note.”
“Better With Time” fuels your fire—whether you’re chasing dreams, reclaiming your voice, or stepping into a new chapter. It’s the kind of energy that makes you feel seen, heard, and ready for whatever comes next.
And what comes next is just the beginning. “Better With Time” marks another step toward Stefanie Michaela’s debut EP, Turning Pages—a collection of songs that reflect resilience, reinvention, and the power of owning your story. Each track turns a new page in Stefanie’s journey—and she’s writing this next chapter on her own terms.
