Meet Our SG Peer Mentors:

Bec, age 16

SGPM since July 2010
In 16 short years I have discovered and learnt about more life issues than a normal 16-year-old would, so I find that I would be able to relate to everyone in some way. My friends know me as the girl with the great advice and I hope to stick by that on SmartGirl as a Peer Mentor. I’m here to help.

 

Bethany, age 13

SGPM since March 2010
My friends always come to me for advice, the guys and girls. I'm like their life saver. Plus, I've been through a lot of different situations. Being a SmartGirl Mentor can help me help kids through the same situations I've gone through!

 

Bleeding Heart, age 15

SGPM since April 2010
I have been through so much, and when something goes down, I always try to my best to be the bigger person. I know how girls think and what they are going through. I give my friends advice whenever I can. I also have the time to read and reread all the issues and I am a natural-born listener. I also really want to help.

 

Cae, age 14

SGPM since March 2010
I would make a good peer mentor because I have had many teenage experiences where I have felt that no one understands. I would like to help girls my age know that they are not alone. We all go through teenage things. We all have embarrassing moments. We all have heart-breaking experiences.

 

Cassie, age 13

SGPM since March 2010
My friends mainly come to me for advice: you know, when they're having a bad day or when they just need help. They end up taking my advice and it helps in the long run. That's why I'd be a good peer mentor.

 

Charlie, age 13

SGPM since March 2010
I love to help out, and I give good advice to lots of my friends. Helping people out is what I love to do, every day.

 

Dussie, age 16

SGPM since April 2010
I've been giving advice not only to girls my age, but also my younger sisters, cousins, and friends who need someone to talk to who has "been there." I've had my fair share of experiences and I've learned how to step back, take a look at a situation, and find a successful solution. Hopefully my experience can help another girl out so they don't have to make the same mistakes that I've made.

 

Erika, age 14

SGPM since July 2010
I would be a good SmartGirl mentor because I am around the age of many SmartGirl visitors who need advice, and I love giving it! I believe that loving to do something helps one do that thing well.

 

Katie, age 19

SGPM since February 2010
Well I've been through a lot in the past 20 years, battling an eating disorder, relationships (and broken hearts), friendship problems, confidence problems, and too many other issues to name! I would love to help as many of you as possible and help girls find a voice and be the inspirational young women that I know you all are! Remember: "Love, laugh, and smile."

 

Kaytrina, age 16

SGPM since August 2010
I think I would be a good SmartGirl Peer Mentor because I love helping people with their problems. I use what I know about psychology to help others. I use the advice that I would like to be given. I put myself in other people's shoes.

 

Kristy, age 19

SGPM since February 2010
I would make a good Smartgirl Peer Mentor as I love to help people and I have a lot of experience in many of the issues and would like to help teenage girls make the right decisions in the problems they face.  I am a friendly, outgoing person who is happy to take time out in the day to help people out when they need it and give them hope and courage to get through.

 

Lauren, age 13

SGPM since March 2010
I have gone through so much, and I know exactly what to do if something happens to make you feel uncomfortable or unsure. I give tons of advice out to people daily, and I always want to help someone.

 

Macy, age 14

SGPM since March 2010
I love to give advice! All my friends come to me for advice, and I really love making people feel better.

 

Olga, age 23

SGPM since August 2010
Olga is a Master of Public Health in Health Behavior and Health Education. She has been a peer mentor since high school, and now loves teaching sexual health to college students.

 

Rachel, age 10

SGPM since August 2010
I would be a good SmartGirl Mentor because I love to help other people who are in need. I won't let it rest until I have helped to solve the problem.

 

Shelby, age 13

SGPM since March 2010
I'd be a good mentor because I have been through a lot and I think I can help in any way possible. I am nice and I think of everything on the bright side.

 

Stacey, age 13

SGPM since April 2010
I've been through many experiences that lots of girls go through. I love to give advice and my friends always come to me when they have a problem. I'm always happy to help!

 

Violet Joy, age 16

SGPM since July 2010
I've been through a lot for just being 16. I know all about divorce and breakups and all sorts of issues, both with family and friends. I wish I would have had good advice through situations like this, and I think it's great that SmartGirl offers it. So keep the questions coming and hopefully I can help!
