In a world where young girls are bombarded with messages about their looks, a visionary named Clara West decided it was time for change. While shopping for a magazine for her daughter, she was disheartened to find that every option on the shelves emphasized beauty tips, fashion, and superficial content. “It was dismal,” Clara shared in an interview. “Each magazine highlighted makeup tutorials or etiquette guides, leaving no room for the diverse interests our girls have.”
Determined to create a better alternative, Clara teamed up with her daughter and launched a Kickstarter campaign, which quickly became one of the most successful journalism initiatives in crowdfunding history. The result? A vibrant magazine called “Brave,” designed to inspire girls aged five to 35 to embrace their true selves and explore a wide range of interests.
“We need to show girls they can be bold, inquisitive, and unafraid to venture into subjects like science, art, or engineering,” Clara explained. “My goal is to equip them with the tools to dream big, create, and question the world around them.” With an impressive background in journalism and editorial work, Clara was ready to push boundaries and redefine what a girls’ magazine could be.
Exciting Content in the First Issue
The first issue of “Brave” is packed with exciting content, featuring projects like building a boat, a maze inspired by the adventures of famous athletes, and various STEM activities. But perhaps the most important aspect is the message behind it all: every girl should feel empowered to express her unique self.
