What is Beauty speaks?

Beauty Speaks is a movement of creatives that empower women in their voices, worth, and what they carry. 

My name is Stephanie Bautista and I am the Founder of Beauty Speaks. I am originally from Southern California and I currently reside in Dallas, Texas. Being raised by a single mom and sexually molested at a young age, I am convinced the very thing that attempted to break me down as a girl has empowered me to speak up as a woman for the freedom of others. Women who have been victims to all types of injustices have been silenced for way too long. Beauty Speaks is a creative platform to break that silence and give them a voice. Beauty Speaks is an extension of my passion and my life -- to empower women all around.

Our Goal

We are launching one of our main creative platforms - Video Production. We will be directing and producing videos of women and their stories. To make this happen, we need to raise $7,500. Here is our budget breakdown...
- We are going to produce, direct and edit 7 videos this year.
  • $2,800 - $350 per video - This includes the first one we produced.
  • $4,000 - $500 video editing ($50/hr, Max: 10 hours)
  • $700 - Miscellaneous expenses: Extra costs for video production, Make-up artists, Promotional materials and any initial start up costs for the website and merchandise.

Your Impact

I am personally asking you to financially partner with us in this as we get Beauty Speaks off the ground and running. Why? Because you or someone you love needs to be heard. Women need to know they are understood and are not alone. Their story counts for something. Beauty Speaks exists to break the silence and find "her" voice. 

Risks & Challenges

Beauty Speaks has been a dream birthed in my heart since January 2014, but the timing has not been right until now. Even after moving my life to Dallas in January 2015, the dream continued to stir in my heart. A few months ago, my friend Dustin encouraged me to finally destroy the build-up of fear and excuses; to understand the simple and powerful truth of pursuing my dreams. The journey to today has been long and hard. Launching something greater than myself is extremely vulnerable, but a risk I am more than willing to make. Some days I cannot contain my excitement about Beauty Speaks... and then there are days where I question everything, "What the heck did I get myself into!? Am I crazy for dreaming this big?" But frankly, until my dreams are put to the test in front of you and the rest of world to see... I am not dreaming big enough. 

Along with every other creative visionary and dreamer in history, I want to take the road less traveled by, where untouched dreams are discovered. I plan to bring on board a few more like-minded creative dreamers and voices to my team (Currently, we have 8 amazing team members based out of LA and Dallas.) I plan to learn as much as I give out. I plan to receive as much as I give. I plan to be resourceful, determined, and continually committed to WHY I am doing more than what I am doing. 

Note: We have officially launched May 8, 2016 as a creative movement online. We are currently in the process of registering Beauty Speaks as a non-profit.
