STARMIA was founded by Professional basketball player Mia Hopkins. Mia has had quite the journey as a professional athlete and is still writing her story. She has played in the Czech Republic, Ireland, Greece, and Brazil. As well as, two seasons for the World Famous Harlem Globetrotters.
She started the idea of creating this brand in 2019 when she had an injury while playing in Greece. During this time of darkness, she turned inward and realized she was always a star. She knew she held the power to shine through any darkness, realizing, all darkness brings you closer to your inner self, igniting your star power.
Every person has authentic and unique power. Believe you are an infinitely powerful star. Regardless of whatever challenges and darkness life reveals, you are still a star. The overcoming of the dark leads you to shine brighter, it is the perfect balance of contrast. Let it push you closer to your powerful truth. Never stop reaching and believing in your power to shine because it is always there.
Be the STAR!
