About the Author
When Lucy asked me to be apart of the GrrlPunch staff, not only was I ecstatic and honored, but I felt a new door of creativity open for me. Not just a door of creativity, but a place where girls are all searching for a place to outlet their voice. GrrlPunch is beautiful, GrrlPunch is strong, and GrrlPunch is a place that hopefully I can use to let people know that they are always beautiful, always strong, and always heard. Our voice is a gift that some may attempt to take away, but is something I strive to always fight for, and I want all of us girls to fight for too. Let’s take on the world, one grrl at a time!!!
With arms wide open, Tess
