Stacey Dutton is an entertainment executive, creative producer, and emotional mastery advocate whose career spans more than three decades across music, television, and film. Known for her discerning eye and intuitive leadership style, she has helped shape the careers of multi-platinum recording artists, award-winning producers, and on-screen talent while consulting for some of the industry’s most recognized networks and brands.

As the original on-air host of TLC/Discovery Network’s Clean Sweep and casting director for the Emmy Award–winning Clean House on The Style Network, Stacey became known for her innate understanding of people—their stories, their boundaries, and what truly drives them. Today, she brings that same insight to her work with women navigating life’s most profound transitions.

Her debut book, The Sovereign Self, reframes life after sixty as an act of remembrance—pairing lived experience with emotional fluency and field-tested tools for clarity, boundaries, and self-governance. Through her developing platform, Live Sovereign Self, Stacey helps women cultivate emotional ease and presence in their “third act,” teaching that aging is not decline but refinement: less noise, more signal.

A lifelong advocate for children in foster care and animal welfare, Stacey is also a business owner and co-founder of Un Amor Agave Farm in Jalisco, Mexico, and part of the award-winning Cazcanes Tequila family.
