“A #STUKGIRL is a multidimensional woman of substance. She wears many entrepreneurial hats in this life, embraces her own creativity and self love to the fullest. She does what she loves and inspires others while doing it.” – STUK Designs LLC.

Britt is something like the real life "Being Mary Jane" (a TV series about a power woman news anchor played by Gab Union). Her success story is beyond motivating! The most inspiring story to us was when Britt packed up all her things and moved to Louisiana to be fulfill her dreams as a news anchor! She moved alone and it was a complete leap of faith! She found success there, but then again packed up all her things and moved back to LA when she felt a male boss as being inappropriate! With each leap of faith she encountered more success, and the universe blessed her with more abundance! She is now at the top of her game (pun intended)! We hope this bad ass sports broadcasters story inspires you as much as it inspires us! 

Your Name: BRITT JOHNSON

Your Zodiac Sign: PISCES

Where are you from? Los Angeles, CA

What’s your focus, purpose, passion, and contribution to the world?

MY FOCUS IS DEFINITELY ON LEAVING THIS WORLD BETTER THAN IT WAS WHEN I GOT HERE; EVEN IF ITS JUST TO CHANGE ONE PERSONS DAY OR LIFE IN A POSITIVE WAY. I THINK EMPATHY IS THE CURE TO A LOT OF THINGS, SO I TRY MY BEST TO BE EMPATHIC TOWARDS OTHERS. I CURRENTLY DON’T HAVE ANY CHILDREN, BUT WHEN I DO BECOME A MOTHER I HOPE TO CREATE AND RAISE AMAZING HUMAN BEINGS THAT WILL MAKE A POSITIVE IMPACT!

How do you do it and who do you do it with?

MY CAREER IS BEING A SPORTS HOST, BUT I DON'T LET MY JOB DEFINE WHO I AM. I BELIEVE WHATS MOST IMPORTANT IN LIFE ARE THE THINGS YOU DON'T GET PAID TO DO - LIKE VOLUNTEERING, OR BEING A VOICE FOR PEOPLE WHO CAN'T! LIVING IN LOS ANGELES IS AMAZING BECAUSE THERE ARE SO MANY OTHER LIKE MINDED INDIVIDUALS WHO TAKE STANDS FOR THE THINGS THEY BELIEVE IN. THAT IS POWERFUL!

What are your special talents?

MY SPECIAL TALENT WOULD PROBABLY BE STORY TELLING. I THINK THATS WHY I LOVE MY CAREER. IN SPORTS PEOPLE FOCUS SO MUCH ON THE SCORES AND STATS, AND TO ME THAT’S NOT IMPORTANT. I LIKE TO TELL THE STORIES OF THE ATHLETES UNDERNEATH THE JERSEY. WHY DO THEY DO WHAT THEY DO? WHY IS THIS WIN SO IMPORTANT TO THEM? I LIKE TO FILL THE GAPS OF THE ATHLETES AND THE FANS BY MAKING THESE "SUPERHERO" ATHLETES RELATABLE!

What are you working on at the moment?

IT’S WORLD CUP TIME! AT THE MOMENT I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON SOME VIDEOS FOR FOX SPORTS. I ALSO HAVE BEEN WORKING ON MY PERSONAL YOUTUBE CHANNEL TO HELP BUILD UP MY BRAND! :)

What does your art mean to you?

TALKING ON CAMARA ISN'T AS IMPORTANT TO ME AS CREATING. MY FAVORITE THING ABOUT MY CAREER IS BEING ABLE TO CREATE SOMETHING. HAVING A CONCEPT IN YOUR HEAD AND THEN WRITING A SCRIPT FOR IT, SHOOTING IT, EDITING IT AND BROADCASTING IT FOR PEOPLE TO ENJOY. LIKE I SAID I DON'T HAVE KIDS YET SO I FEEL LIKE THE PROJECTS I DO ARE KIND OF LIKE MY BABIES. TO SEE THEM GO FROM JUST A THOUGHT TO SOMETHING I CAN WATCH AND SHARE IS PRICELESS!

What does love mean to you?

LOVE IS EVERYTHING. I DON'T THINK ANYTHING THRIVES OR EVEN SURVIVES WITHOUT LOVE. LOVE IS GOD AND GOD IS LOVE!

How does your zodiac sign impact the way you love?

WHERE DO I EVEN START! I'M A PISCES, SO I’M A SUPER SENSITIVE PERSON. I LOVE QUICKLY AND LOVE HARD, HOWEVER, BECAUSE I AM A SENSITIVE PERSON ONCE SOMEONE DOES SOMETHING TOXIC THEN, I’M OVER THEM. I MAY STILL TALK TO YOU, BUT THAT FEELING WILL NEVER BE THERE FOR ME AGAIN. I’M ALSO NOT LOGICAL AT ALL. I BASE EVERYTHING OFF EMOTIONS AND HOW I FEEL. THINGS DON'T HAVE TO MAKE LOGICAL SENSE FOR ME, OFTEN IN LOVE THERE IS NOT LOGIC. LOVE IS A FEELING AND A STATE OF BEING. IT’S ALL ABOUT VIBES!

What does God mean to you?

GOD IS EVERYTHING. I SOMETIMES FEEL LIKE PEOPLE GIVE GOD TOO MANY HUMAN CHARACTERISTICS. GOD IS A SPIRIT NOT A BEING. I TALK TO GOD DAILY. I FEEL GOD ALL AROUND ME. LIKE I SAID GOD IS LOVE.

When did you learn self-love & how has practicing self-love changed your life?

SELF LOVE IS SOMETHING I AM CONTINUING TO LEARN EVERY DAY. I AM ALWAYS CHANGING AND GROWING. SOMETIMES I CHANGE INTO THINGS I DON’T LIKE, SO IT’S FOREVER A BATTLE TO LOVE NEW VERSIONS OF MYSELF! I THINK TRUE SELF LOVE COMES WITH LOVING CHANGE AND GROWTH AND UNDERSTANDING THAT IF YOU AREN’T GROWING YOU ARE DYING. SOMETIMES YOUR FLOWER GETS STOMPED ON AND COMPLETELY DESTROYED, BUT THATS WHERE STRONG ROOTS COME IN. YOU HAVE TO BUILD UP YOUR ROOTS IN THE DARK AND IN A COLD PLACE AND SOMETIMES YOU BLOOM A BEAUTIFUL FLOWER - OTHER TIMES IT’S NOT YOUR SEASON. SO YOU HAVE TO BE ABLE TO LOVE BOTH SIDES OF THAT! EVERYTHING HAPPENS WITH A PURPOSE!

What is your philosophy of life?

I’M STILL WORKING THIS ONE OUT BUT I THINK IT’S JUST TO BELIEVE THAT WE AREN'T WHAT HAPPENS TO US. WE AREN'T ALL GIVEN EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES, BUT EVERYONE IS GIVEN AN OPPORTUNITY IN LIFE AND YOU JUST NEED TO BE PREPARED FOR WHEN YOURS COMES!

What advice would you give someone who is attempting to make a dream into a career?

I HAVE ALWAYS HEARD THAT YOU SHOULD FIND SOMETHING YOU LOVE TO DO AND YOU WILL NEVER WORK ANOTHER DAY IN YOUR LIFE. ITS TRUE! BUT YOU HAVE TO MAKE ROOM FOR YOUR BLESSINGS. SEVERAL YEARS AGO, I WAS BARTENDING AND MAKING PRETTY GOOD MONEY. I WOULD STILL HOST AND DO SPORTS STUFF, BUT I DIDN'T HAVE IT AS A CAREER YET. SO, WHAT I DID WAS TOOK A BLIND LEAP OF FAITH. I QUIT MY JOB BARTENDING AND LITERALLY JUST PUT ALL MY ENERGY INTO TRYING TO GET MY CAREER. LESS THEN A MONTH LATER, A NEWS DIRECTOR REACHED OUT TO ME ABOUT A JOB THAT I DIDN'T EVEN APPLY FOR. HE SAW MY REEL ONLINE AND HIRED ME FOR THE JOB! I WILL ALWAYS BELIEVE THIS HAPPENED BECAUSE I MADE ROOM FOR MY BLESSINGS.

Nobody knows I am... A FIRM BELIEVER IN SPEAKING THINGS INTO EXISTENCE. 

I wish I could stop... BEING SO SENSITIVE AND EMOTIONAL... BALANCE IS KEY LOL!

Self love means... TAKING CARE OF YOURSELF EMOTIONALLY, PHYSICALLY, MENTALLY AND SPIRITUALLY!

I find true beauty iN... LOVE AND EMPATHY!

I want to teach my child or children that... GOD GAVE US ALL DIFFERENT GIFTS. NEVER FOCUS ON WHAT YOU SEE IN OTHERS THAT YOU MAY THINK YOU LACK, BECAUSE SOMEONE SEES AMAZING THINGS IN YOU TOO! AND HERE WE ARE AGAIN WITH THE THEMES OF EMPATHY AND LOVE. I WANT MY KIDS TO LOVE THEMSELVES AND OTHERS!
