Genuine. That is what comes to mind when I think of Jennifer Gaige-Stirrup.

She has such a big heart and a love for animals, especially pit bulls. Jennifer adopted a pit bull puppy that I was fostering, and that was the beginning of our meaningful relationship.

Our families connected immediately, and we are still close today. One thing I admire about Jennifer is how important quality family time is to her. She is always creating memories and has a unique way of making you feel special even if it is through a simple text message. There is so much that can be said about her.

Here is her view of beauty.


Q: WHAT IS BEAUTY TO YOU?

Confidence. A confident person doesn’t worry about what others think of them. They love and respect themselves so much that they want to spread that feeling to others. 

Q: WHAT ABOUT YOURSELF DO YOU NOT LIKE? 

There is not much about my physical appearance that I like. I am very critical of myself. I would like to say that’s improving with age, but I’d be lying! Maybe, that’s why I find confidence so beautiful in others.

Q:WHAT ABOUT YOURSELF DO YOU LOVE?


My compassion and empathy for animals. My grandmother and aunt were always working hard to help animals. I don’t hold a candle to them, but I am going to keep their compassionate spirit alive. 

Q:WHO DO YOU ADMIRE MOST IN THIS WORLD? HOW DO THEY INSPIRE YOU?

My husband Russell. He had every reason in this life to not succeed, but he overcame his start in life. He is such a hard working provider. Russell is the kind of husband that still sends flowers just because and surprises me with romantic gestures. 

Q: WHAT DO YOU ADMIRE MOST ABOUT OTHER WOMEN?

I admire other women who aren’t afraid to make their dreams come true. Women who build others up rather that tear them down. I admire women who are strong but kind.

Q: VOICES COME IN MANY FORMS. WHAT DO YOU WANT THE WORLD TO HEAR AND SEE WHEN WITNESSING YOUR BEAUTIFUL VOICE?

I want my voice to be heard when it comes to Pit Bulls. They have been my passion for 20 years. They are so misunderstood. 


She is gorgeous, she’s radiant, & she’s lovely.
Beauty comes in all forms, shades, & sizes.
