Dear Stellargirls,

My version of being a Stellargirl is personified by my spirit of motivation, modernity, and all that glitters! I became who I am today not only through my experiences and grit, but also by the people I have surrounded myself with.

Stellargirls are strong, proud, talented, brave, and love life! We are those “get up and go” girls who get things done and totally kick butt! We genuinely pull each other up and never tear each other down.

We are radiant, authentic, confident, and fierce. We are stylish, distinguished, and above all determined. We are warm hearted and enthusiastic. We have opinions while remaining classy, poised, and honest. Our smiles make a room more beautiful because we shine bright always!

I can’t wait to hear from you! Calling all Stellargirls to follow me and share your Stellargirl story!
Love,
Teri
