I had Lacey's older sister, Savanna, on the Fearless Spirit Model Crew about 6-7 years ago. When Lacey joined the model crew this year, she was very self-conscious about her scar on her lip, where a dog bit her. She couldn't see past it. Throughout the 7 months in Fearless Spirit, she began to see how beautiful and awesome she is. EVERYONE loves Lacey! 🥰

Getting to know Lacey has been awesome. She is so cheery and fun to be around and she is always wanting to help. 💙 I just adore her sweet heart and spirit. I wish I could keep her around forever. At the Fearless Spirit Fashion show (their graduation from the program), several girls were emotional because it's coming to an end. Lacey was crying  and said,  "Miss Casey, you changed my life!". I LOST IT!!! I cried all over her! I can usually keep it together but she sent me over the edge! 😭 I cried for two days. Going to miss these girls. ♥️

Testimonials from Lacey and her mom

"Fearless spirit helped me see me better than ever before. I joined fearless spirit thinking that I wasn’t as good as other girls. I'm so grateful I got to be part of this experience because it helped me in life so much. Casey lifted me up every time I saw her...constantly reminding me that I'm beautiful. She always made me laugh when I didn’t think I could. I will forever be thankful for the chance I had with fearless spirit and Casey." Lacey 

"Fearless spirit was such a great opportunity for my daughter. After her dog attack she was self conscious and didn’t see the beautiful person she is because of the scars on her face. Casey helped her build her confidence again and see past the scars. This experience has helped Lacey find herself again and she was able to see all the beauty she is." Lacey's Mom

What is Fearless Spirit?

About 8 years ago, I started hearing from EVERY mother of a middle school girl, how their self-confidence plummeted when they reached middle school. This is when girls start to be mean and bully other girls. Their once out-going child, was now shy, sad, guarded and kept to themselves most of the time. And then, add Covid anxiety on top of that. They have a lot stacked against them. Parents can only do so much. Parents can tell them, until they’re blue in the face, how beautiful and special they are, but teens need something more.

Having self-confidence at this time in their life is vital for building a strong person, that will believe in themselves and succeed at their life goals. I began Fearless Spirit Model Crew for girls 11-16 years old, who are really struggling with their self-confidence and anxiety. This is a totally different approach to help teens. They get their own custom photoshoot and get to participate in 7-8 monthly fun and artistic group sessions.

By seeing beautiful images of themselves, over and over, for 7 months, they start to see how beautiful they are and how cool it is to be unique and stand out from the crowd.
