Beauty Changes Lives scholarship season is well under way; and to help inspire prospective applicants with their submission process, BARBinc is highlighting some of the organization’s 2014 winners.
Stephen Potter, Beauty Changes Lives 2014 Massage Envy Spa Scholarship Winner, credits his decision to pursue a career in massage therapy to his father. After decades of being bound to a wheelchair due to post-polio syndrome and a recent colon cancer surgery.
Stephen remembers massaging his fathers neck and shoulders. Knowing the positive benefits to massage therapy himself, Stephen wanted to share those benefits with this father, and to this day still gives him a massage.
This drive and motivation to affect others in a positive way, will most certainly lead Stephen to a long and successful career.
