Meet Stella. This little...

Meet Stella. This little girl wasn’t diagnosed with Williams Syndrome, until she was 5 years old. At her parent teacher conference the teacher commented that: "Stella reminds me of a little girl I used to teach who had Williams Syndrome." After the meeting in the school’s parking lot, her parents googled Williams Syndrome and their mystery was solved.⁣ ⁣ Stella’s mom Jen has always been a huge supporter of Outshine Labels, so of course I had to create her a store!Never the Less is the design they chose, and this write-up by Jen perfectly describes it:⁣ ⁣ “The affirmation Never The Less was created out of a two-year journey of a working mama battling the stigma of being a career woman in a male-dominated industry, as she was simultaneously thrust into the world of disability when her daughter was diagnosed with a rare genetic condition at age 5.  ⁣ ⁣ Never The Less is a mantra about self-empowerment.  About persevering when life gets hard, and you want to throw in the towel.  About consciously viewing yourself not as less, but as a person shattering the ceilings that exist in your communities. Gender. Ability. Race. Preferences. It is about claiming your space and showing up as someone deserving.⁣ ⁣ Never The Less…You must persist.⁣ ⁣ Never The Less… Your story matters.⁣ ⁣ Never The Less… You are not less than.⁣ ⁣ Never The Less… You are more.” - @jenkeeton⁣ ⁣ Stella and Jen will receive 60% of the profits anytime their design sells. And they’re donating all of their profits to Best Buddies International! How awesome is that?!? Shop their new store @outshinelabels for yourself, or the loved ones on your holiday list today!
