MY WORK WITH GIRLS
Pegged a Gender Advocate, Dr. Shekina Moore, believes developing discipline and healthy esteem in girls is the key to tapping into their leadership capacity.
She empowers audiences with her 5 Principles for F.I.E.R.C.E. Success. She has spoken out against gender oppression and disempowerment since 1992, penning her first published article, “Blocking Out the Gender Gap”, while a high school student. This article garnered the attention of the National Press for Women. She has also authored several girls empowerment books including: Beautiful, Big-boned and Brown; Black Girls Hear: Untold Stories of the Marginalized, Unsafe & Unwelcomed; and co-author of When Dark Chocolate is Bittersweet: Controversy Within A Culture.
Dr. Shekina worked extensively in the school systems of North Carolina and it was during this time that Shekina began to notice that girls really did not have a voice. Too often, as she experienced, we fail to recognize girls for their invaluable contributions, placing too much emphasis on their physicality and not enough on their skills. One day while watching a documentary on girls her mission and person was awakened and she questioned where their voices were and who was standing up for our girls. Her questions soon turned to solutions.
Answering that call to empower girls, Dr. Shekina launched Fierce Girl Empowerment Movement, to inspire females to show up in their own lives that they may ignite those watching and taking notes. The Movement includes B2F Girls!™, a nationwide resource for women with a calling to mentor girls; and the Tween Star Awards™, a national recognition platform for girls who are showing up in various spheres of community, academia, innovation, philanthropy, character, entrepreneurship and athletics. She is also the visionary behind many empowerment events for women and girls–the Annual AuthenticiTea & Social, B2F Girls! Roundtable and B2F Girls! ZOOM Conference.
Her work in gender advocacy has been recognized by the GA House of Representatives, the White House, and The Huffington Post. Dr. Moore was also recognized by Girls World Marketing Group as one of 50 Empowering Women Who Empower Girls.

LOOKING BACK
“I remember like yesterday the day fierce walked in the room of my heart. I began to eat, sleep, breathe, exude fierce. It was the day I decided to stop playing small and to take control of my life. People began to ask me what I was doing differently, to compliment me on my aura, to take notice when I entered the landscape. Awareness, action, intensity and consistency had finally started to show up in my life and there was nothing I could do to stop it from being evident. When you’re fierce, everyone knows it, and once you catch this fierce, there is no turning back. I look forward to hearing about the day fierce walked into your room. Much success to you. “

IN HER OWN WORDS
For a long time I did not have a voice and I held back my personality and kept myself in a box. I couldn’t help others in the box I was in. I had to personally develop. So, I made the investment in me. As Iyanla Vanzant would say, “I did the work!”
UP CLOSE
Don’t be that friend that gets quiet when your friends are doing well. Let me share a secret with you… It’s CONTAGIOUS! So, stay genuinely connected and keep grinding. No time for whoa-is-me parties. Your nature is to shrink back but that’s when you should CELEBRATE AND SQUARE UP! These are signs of mature women who are winning. #blahtofierce #thatfiercelife #fierceliving #girlbefierce
On your way to the top you’re going to feel everything. #blahtofierce #thatfiercelife #girlbefierce
My own inspiration has always been making the little girl in me proud. As a young girl, I was very introverted and withdrawn. I didn’t trust my voice and I learned to not be seen. When opportunities came, I would shun them. When I had valid points I would let others make me feel small or like my opinions didn’t matter. My self-esteem was in a low place and it held me back. It wasn’t until I started taking on leadership roles, excelling in school and playing sports that I began to come out of my shell and see the value I brought to my teams and organizations.
As my confidence grew over the year, I began to notice the magnetic pull and influence I had on others. I have always felt that if I felt this way as a youth that other young women struggled with the same. Today, I am very passionate about showing women how to be magnetic (what I call blah to fierce) and empowering girls with health esteem and leadership tools. This makes the little girl in me proud of who I have become and overcome.
Self esteem is crucial for girls because we live in a world that constantly tells girls how they should look and sets very narrow limits for what is considered ‘beautiful’. Girls are also told what they should and shouldn’t do professionally. We should help our daughters to value their unique beauty and stay true to themselves. While 7 in 10 girls believe they are not good enough, is there any wonder that only 3% of Fortune 500 CEOs are women? Or that only 34 women have ever served as governors, compared to 2,319 men?
