Since my early 20's right out of college I have always been calling my girlfriends and myself 5 Star women. In my eyes we were just that.... High Quality Women.
Here are the 5 Stars at that time:
No Children
Nice bodies/Attractive
Educated with one or 2 degrees
Independent living - not living at home with parents. Some of us had already purchased homes
Having a Career and not just a job.
All these factors listed above were true for me which is why I didn't stay on the market long. I was engaged at 25 years of age, married at 26 years of age and had my 1st child at 27 a son and my second child at 30 a daughter.
Fast forward to my mid 40's, the definition I created for a 5 star woman in my 20's doesn't truly apply to me at 46 years old. So, I decided to redefine the characteristics of a 5 star woman. This modified description can appeal to woman of all ages.
Again the definition is based on my point of view and my opinion.
1. Educated (Either degree or certification)
2. Sophisticated and Cultured
3. Attractive Appearance (Internally and Externally)
Healthy mentally, physically and emotionally
Knowing how to show up in spaces
4. Homeowner
5. Financial Security (Not living paycheck to paycheck)
Financial Freedom
Now let's be clear this ranking has nothing to do with getting a man or a husband or finding the love of your life. These 5 stars are about you and for you to be the highest quality of a woman for yourself. I believe women who possess all of these stars are well rounded women who can add and contribute to society in a positive way. They are role models for their children especially their daughter(s) and young females who are watching and looking up to them.
As the creator of this organization, at my core, I have a passion for seeing people do well. In life I saw so many setbacks for women who looked just like me. I saw it in my family, my friend circle and in the community. I believe what separates those who are living a fulfilling quality life is knowledge, resources and support.
Sometimes, it's the small steps that lead to big changes. I turned a thought into a vision. I found my purpose. I myself will continue to grow through many journeys to increase my knowledge as a 5 star woman.
