Find Your Focus:"I'm really excited to have the opportunity to be a celebrity mentor this year," says singer Demi Lovato. "Empowering teens to reach for their dreams is important to me because having big goals will keep you focused and on the right path. In the face of challenges or pressure, having the motivation to achieve something great gives you a purpose."
Know Anything is Possible: "No dream is too small," says celebrity mentor Joe Jonas. "You have to believe in yourself first and know that anything is possible. When you're young, it's a time to explore your dreams and find a way to make them a reality."
Be True to Yourself:"I've been lucky to have a lot of support in my life from family and friends, but as an actor there's always pressure about what you look like and what you do, which can be a challenge," says celebrity mentor Tyler Blackburn. "As a mentor, I want to be able to share that throughout your journey, it's about really knowing who you are. Surround yourself with people who truly like you for you and don't compromise yourself for anyone."
Hard Work Pays Off:"Last year I was a mentor to a fellow runner," says celebrity mentor Allyson Felix, "and I was excited to share the ups and downs of my journey with him so that he would understand how hard work pays off. He taught me a lesson as well; every up and down gives you an opportunity to improve, every grueling practice a chance to overcome. It was amazing how we both inspired each other to be better."
Confidence Comes From Within:"Growing up in the front of the camera, I learned firsthand that confidence is found within," says celebrity mentor Meaghan Martin. "With all the success! es and c hallenges that come with growing up, I'm inspired by all these teens out there that have such unique, wonderful dreams. I'm excited to share a message of confidence, reminding them that it is what's inside that will drive them to succeed."
