Learning Love Through Makeovers

Savannah W., GlamourGals Outstanding Volunteer Award recipient from Stevenson High School, shares a heartwarming story about a senior couple and how listening to their love story taught her the importance of self-love.

Early on in my GlamourGals journey, specifically on my second visit, I had the opportunity to speak with a lovely couple, who told me all about their love story. Instead of a classic love story, they explained to me the ups and downs that came with their relationship. The couple shared how their time apart taught them timing but really showed them how important self love was. Ever since that encounter, I took it upon myself to be mindful of the lesson that I learned that day– learn to love yourself before you can expect love from others. I am forever thankful for the opportunities that GlamourGals has given me. I get to impact others, learn so much from the seniors, and truly cherish my visits.
