Finalist Miss Teen Canada 2022
Felicia P
Hello,
The three words that described me were lost, bitter, and defeated; oh, how everything can change in two years.
By my last year of school, I already had a small collection of plants and started selling propagations on Facebook.
My first customer had the most thoughtful story, and seeing how happy she was, I knew I had to continue.
Within a few weeks, I built my first website during math class. It was a hobby, nothing more until I started working at a plant store.
My collection grew, and so did my knowledge. My work grew my hobby into a business. My Family helped me make the best decision of my life, to leave school and work for myself.
I taught myself business, finance, and social media marketing, constantly improving myself and my business. Seeing people enjoy what I built was remarkable and watching my business grow grew my confidence.
As it continues to grow, I am so excited for the opportunities it will bring to give back to the environment, the indigenous population, and my community.
The three words that represent me now are caring, thoughtful, and tenacious.
Felicia
If you’d Elected: what you would realize
Why vote for me!
If you vote for me, you will be voting for a delegate dedicated to helping uplift women and bettering the environment.
I plan on creating a space to teach women and girls how to find their passions, scale their businesses, and make passive income. Throughout our lives, we have been taught that working alone, not trying new paths, and not asking for help are the best ways to succeed; this is not true. Women are also taught that we are rivals, not to help or encourage each other but to put each other down to get ahead. That is why I want to build a space where women can come to learn, provide resources, and ask questions.
I am dedicated to teaching people how to increase their sustainability in their everyday lives, whether buying secondhand, finding reusable alternatives, or repurposing. I plan to help build and support organizations that help clean the ocean / our shorelines, find more eco-friendly options, and work towards mandating big corporations to become more eco-friendly and less green-washed.
In the future, I also hope to expand my platform to encompass many passions and issues: like indigenous rights, homelessness/housing crises, and mental health & disabilities.
The future is here, and we can make the most significant impact together.
