Q and A with Sylvia M. from San Antonio, Texas
“I would love for others to learn that our lives can change if we decide to change them. We are not a tree; we can change the direction of our lives!”
Q: What are you passionate about?
A: I’m passionate about helping women learn to love themselves now while working on a better version of themselves and building a community of women who empower one another. I started being a part of a women empowerment group called “Team Beauty” and because of their community, I was able to grow and learn to love myself and build self confidence. I currently have a nutrition shop where I host multiple events for women.
Q: What were your younger years like?
A: I was raised by my hardworking parents who taught me to work for my dreams. I joined the United States Marine Corp at the age of 19 in the hopes of going to college. I started college, but I did not graduate because I could never pass the mathematics classes.
Q: What is something valuable you’d like others to know?
A: I learned that we were created to shine light in someone else’s darkness. This brings me true happiness. To be that hand that pulls a lady up from depression, anxiety, or whatever she is going through. I would love for others to learn that our lives can change if we decide to change them. We are not a tree; we can change the direction of our lives! We don’t have to make changes alone.
Q: What does feminism mean to you?
A: Feminism to me means being a strong, independent woman who fights for her dreams, yet loves with all her heart and soul and inspires other women to do the same.
