Big congratulations to Stella Kikoyo!
We’re thrilled to announce a powerful moment in the journey of Stella Kikoyo, Founder and Chief Editor of Stellar Woman Magazine, and the visionary behind Stellar Woman Academy.
At the prestigious 2025 Women Changing the World Global Awards, Stella was officially recognised as:
🏆 Winner (3rd Place) of the Gender Empowerment Award
🏅 Finalist for Coach of the Year
Hosted in London, these awards celebrate women creating meaningful impact across the globe. Inspired by world changers like Dr. Tererai Trent and Sarah, Duchess of York, the Women Changing the World Awards honour those who are lifting others through their leadership, purpose, and unwavering belief in the power of women.
“When women awaken their sacred dreams, the world can heal.” Dr. Tererai Trent
“Our aim is to give voice to silent whispers.” Sarah, Duchess of York
Among thousands of nominees from across the world, Stella’s work stood out. Her leadership in creating a platform that amplifies women’s voices, builds confidence, and drives purpose-led transformation was recognised by the international panel of judges.
This recognition is more than a personal milestone, it is a testament to the vision that fuels Stellar Woman: that when one woman rises, she lifts many with her.
A Message from Stella
“I’m deeply honoured to receive this recognition. I do this work because I believe in it. I believe in the women we serve, and I believe in the ripple effect that happens when one woman decides to take up space, to lead, to rise. Thank you to the incredible community that surrounds this mission, this award belongs to all of us.”
Thank You to Our Community
To every woman who has joined a workshop, subscribed to our magazine, enrolled in our academy, or shared their story, this is your win, too.
We’re excited for what’s next and grateful to the Women Changing the World Awards for celebrating Stella’s work and the global sisterhood we’re building.
