Limitless by Neya Krishna

By Neya Krishnan, 17, Poet

When I was five, I always asked my mom to describe the most intellectually challenging jobs in the world; from thin lines in the palm of her hand she drew rocket scientists, neurosurgeons, and astronauts. I told her not to fear, that I would become all of them.

Learning Self-Worth

By Ranease Brown, 17, Bridgeport CT, LiveGirl Intern, LiveGirl since 2015

At seventeen years old, I am unlearning and learning how to love and accept myself. LiveGirl has been a huge part of my growth. I have been with this organization since 2015, when I was only twelve, and I have learned so much about confidence. I have learned how to manifest and use affirmations in my daily life to build myself up. I have found such a bright light of a community to lift up young girls that are, and were, just like me. I am able to plant seeds of confidence, positivity, power, and acceptance within these girls.
