In a world where authenticity becomes the most valuable currency, Artur Biernat gains recognition through his image and honesty, knowledge, and constant willingness to share what shapes a human being – from the inside and the outside.

Artur’s nomination in the Inspiration Star category is no coincidence but a natural consequence of his work and his impact on thousands of people through his presence on social media. His activity on YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram is not just about aesthetic frames – it is reliable education in skincare, product testing, and conscious lifestyle.

Artur doesn’t just talk about how to take care of yourself – he teaches that it’s worth doing it with care and respect.

His path to recognition was not accidental. Participation in the Top Model show opened new opportunities for him, which he embraced with passion and thoughtfulness. Today, he is an influencer and a mentor – helping others build their brand, take care of their image, and discover their style. His radio show "Na Fali Estetyki z Arturem" (On the Aesthetic Wave with Artur) was a space where topics related to beauty and self-acceptance gained new depth and meaning.

Artur has collaborated with renowned brands such as Revolution Men and Apple & Bears, combining professionalism with authenticity. As a personal shopper and image expert, he shows that fashion and skincare are not vanity but a form of self-expression and care for well-being.

His most outstanding achievement, however, remains something that cannot be measured with awards – the trust and gratitude of people who, thanks to him, dared to take care of themselves and look at their reflections with more incredible tenderness.

Artur Biernat is not just the voice of a generation of conscious consumers – he is the face of change that inspires people to live beautifully, wisely, and in harmony with themselves.

For many years, Katarzyna Lakomska Haracz has been actively involved in informational, social, and community-focused initiatives in the UK, particularly in the Greater Manchester area.

Her work is primarily practical. For over 15 years, she has independently managed thematic groups and Facebook pages as an information hub for the Polish community. Katarzyna shares content on everyday life, local organizations, cultural events, and current issues important to the immigrant community. In an age of information overload, her efforts help many people quickly access helpful resources and guidance.

Katarzyna is also the founder of the Polish community newspaper "Nasz Manchester," a media project for this part of the UK. The newspaper has been operating continuously for 8 years and is solely managed by Katarzyna. She creates content, plans publications, promotes local businesses, and handles distribution's technical and logistical aspects. Despite limited resources, the project has endured and continues to play an essential role in the local media landscape.

In recent years, Katarzyna has also supported other social initiatives, including co-organizing local editions of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity (WOŚP) in Manchester, creating a space for community integration and joint action around these events.

Without external support or an editorial team, she has managed to maintain the continuity of her projects while balancing her everyday professional and personal responsibilities.

These initiatives endure, driven by a determination and a consistency.

Katarzyna’s nomination for the Stars Night Awards recognizes long-term grassroots work—often less visible but deeply essential. Leadership doesn’t always mean big stages and speeches, but it is consistent and dedicated to specific causes and people.

Wioletta Kubicka | Liverpool / UK – from dreams to reality. A Polish woman in the service of public safety in the United Kingdom.

This story inspires, moves, and proves that nothing is impossible.

Wioletta Kubicka – now a Fire Safety Officer and Building Safety Regulator at Merseyside Fire & Rescue Service – has been nominated in the prestigious Stars Night Awards 2025 in the INSPIRATION STAR category. And it’s no surprise – her life path is a story of determination, courage, passion, and breaking stereotypes.

It started in a small town with a big dream.

Wioletta grew up in a small town in Poland. As a young girl, she was involved in scouting activities and collaborated with the local fire station. Then, a spark ignited in her heart—a passion for service, helping others, and fire safety. Unfortunately, as she recalls, at that time, opportunities for women to grow in the fire service in Poland were minimal.

But instead of giving up, she chose a completely different path.

At age 20, she set off into the unknown, with basic English and great faith.

She moved to the United Kingdom, hoping for a better future, knowing only the basics of the English language. She worked in hotels and restaurants, often starting her day before dawn and finishing late at night. But deep down, she never gave up on her dream.

She excelled in science-related subjects and decided to try something more significant. When she happened to come across the University of Central Lancashire Fire Engineering course, she didn’t hesitate—she applied and was accepted.

That was a turning point.

Fire engineering and a new beginning

In 2015, after three years of intensive technical vocabulary learning in a foreign language, Wioletta graduated with a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) in Fire Engineering. At that time, she was 27 and decided to focus on her family, putting her professional ambitions on hold for a few years to raise her children.

But life tends to reward those who are patient and don’t give up on their dreams.

In 2023, when her youngest child started school, Merseyside Fire & Rescue Service opened recruitment for the Building Safety Regulator team. Wioletta not only fit the requirements perfectly—she was practically made for this role.

Today she is a guardian of safety, protecting thousands of people.

Since May 2023, Wioletta has worked as a Fire Safety Officer and Building Safety Regulator. Her work is crucial for the life and health of residents of Liverpool and the entire region. She carries out inspections of commercial, residential, and industrial buildings, checking compliance with regulations, identifying risks, providing recommendations, and ensuring that high-rise buildings meet strict fire safety standards.

People’s safety lies in her hands.

Her work on so-called Safety Case Reports is especially important. These reports are for buildings over 18 meters in height, where the key is to anticipate risks before a tragedy occurs.

She says, "Working in the fire service is not just a job for me – it’s a way of life.”

Wioletta wears her uniform with pride, participates in community events, educates, and inspires. Her personality—full of energy, passion, and authenticity—draws people in. While many are often surprised by her strong European accent and blonde curls, it is exactly that contrast that has become her trademark. It’s her brand.

Strength, courage, knowledge – a woman who breaks patterns

When asked what qualities are key in her profession, she answers without hesitation:

* technical knowledge,

* attention to detail,

* quick decision-making,

* problem-solving.

But what truly makes a difference is her story. It shows women—especially young ones searching for their path—that you can start from scratch and go far.

In her message to other women, she emphasizes:

Step out of your comfort zone – that’s where growth happens.

Be financially independent – have control over your future.

Believe in yourself – that’s your strength.

Wioletta Kubicka proves that strength of character, passion, and courage can take you further than the best plan.

Her story touches and motivates—it bridges what seems unreachable with what can be achieved if you don’t give up.

That is why the INSPIRATION STAR 2025 award nomination is not just a token of recognition – it is also a call to the world to notice those quiet heroes who impact reality daily.

Perhaps, thanks to women like Wioletta, more girls in Poland, the United Kingdom, and around the world will believe that they can be whoever they want to be.

All it takes is the will and action.

Nina Łuczak-Davey | Normanton / UK

In times when the world needs inspiring people more than ever before, some manage to brighten reality not only with their presence but with their actions. One of these people is Nina Łuczak-Davey – a leader, mentor, activist, and ambassador of living in harmony with oneself. Her name appears among the nominees for the INSPIRATION STAR award at the prestigious Stars Night Awards 2025 – and it’s no surprise.

She built a community that radiates goodness.

Nina stands behind the phenomenon of "Pozytywni. Pl" – a space that chooses authenticity, kindness, and everyday optimism in a world of fear, hate, and anxiety. Today, this online group is much more than just a forum—it’s a community that supports one another on the path to a more fulfilling life. People share their stories, inspire others to change, and find a sense of belonging. And all of it stems from one woman's vision and tireless energy.

A mentor of life transformations – Certified IKIGAI Coach

As a certified IKIGAI Coach, Nina helps people discover their “why” – the deep sense of existence that connects passion, mission, and vocation. Her method is based on a personal approach, empathy, and the power of mindfulness. She supports people in overcoming inner barriers, regaining self-belief, and building a life aligned with their values. Thanks to her support, thousands admit they took their first step toward meaningful change.

Nina also created the Ecomishmash platform, where she passionately promotes an eco-friendly lifestyle. She teaches how simple steps can lead to more conscious living without harming the planet – from reducing plastic use to creating spaces rooted in slow living. Her content is practical, aesthetically pleasing, and inspiring – blending creativity with responsibility. Thanks to her, many people began to see ecology not as a burden, but as a way of life.

Motivator, speaker, woman of action

In person, during workshops and events, Nina radiates the same warmth that shines online. She organizes personal development meetings, supports community projects, and openly speaks about the importance of mental health. Her talks are not just words – sparks that ignite people’s strength to take action, fight for their dreams, and not fear failure.

Handicrafts, art, DIY—Nina is an artistic soul. She combines colors, shapes, and emotions into small creations that often become tools for change. Her mission is not just to inspire but to provide real tools for transformation.

Nina shows that you can be yourself and change the world with that authenticity. That positivity is not an escape from problems, but a decision to move forward despite them. That femininity, strength, and sensitivity can coexist.

Her nomination recognizes a movement that draws people in like a magnet—because in a world of chaos and rush, "Pozytywni.Pl" offers something that money can’t buy: hope.

Inspiration is not just a word. It’s an action – and a heart that beats for others.

Tomasz Putynkowski | Stoke-On-Trent, UK

A man who put everything on the line and built a life many would call impossible.

Some people build businesses, and some rebuild… themselves.

Tomasz Putynkowski did both.

His story reads like a film script from the “hard to believe” category.

Eight years ago, Tomasz was in a serious car accident.

He was hospitalised and given a diagnosis that, for many, would mark the end of the road: no ability to walk, chronic pain… and every reason to give up.

But giving up was never part of his vocabulary.

While others were relearning how to walk, Tomasz was learning how to rebuild a life to survive and create value.

No complaints. No self-pity. Just a purpose.

That purpose led to a dream, and that dream became JMT Accountancy.

A firm that doesn’t look like a cold corporate office, but a space where clients are seen as people, not just lines on a spreadsheet.

Today, over 110 clients trust him with their numbers, growth, challenges, and dreams.

His first business had to close due to COVID and Brexit. For many, it would have been a breaking point. For Tomasz, it's just another bend in the road to navigate.

Most recently, he faced yet another test: hospitalisation, a suspected bowel cancer, and a small brain haemorrhage.

And what did he do next?

He walked out of the hospital… and went back to work.

Because clients. Because projects. Because mission.

However, Tomasz's success is not measured by numbers alone.

His heart is just as active as his mind.

He serves on the Advisory Council of the Chamber of Commerce, shaping policies that support local businesses.

He supports people with disabilities by donating his time, knowledge, and resources to organisations like CIC (assisted living) and the Adult Autistic Society – because he knows what it’s like to live “on the other side.”

He’s also a mentor in the Be-Inspired program at Staffordshire University, guiding young entrepreneurs with real experience and an honest heart – because he knows that true success starts where fear ends.

Tomasz Putynkowski is not just a businessman.

He symbolises resilience, a real-life example of someone who fell and rose higher than most of us ever will.

He has been nominated for the Business Star award at the Stars Night Awards 2025 for his extraordinary journey, unwavering professionalism, community involvement, and lasting impact.

Tomasz Putynkowski | Stoke-On-Trent / UK

Człowiek, który postawił wszystko na jedną kartę – i wygrał życie, które wielu nazywa niemożliwym.

Są ludzie, którzy budują biznesy. I są tacy, którzy budują… siebie.

Tomasz Putynkowski zrobił jedno i drugie. A jego historia to gotowy scenariusz filmowy z serii „trudne do uwierzenia”.

Osiem lat temu, w wyniku poważnego wypadku samochodowego, Tomasz trafił do szpitala i otrzymał diagnozę, która dla wielu oznaczałaby koniec. Brak możliwości chodzenia. Ból. Rezygnacja? Nie w tym przypadku.

W czasie, gdy inni uczyliby się chodzić, Tomasz nauczył się… jak zbudować życie od nowa. Bez narzekania. Bez oczekiwań. Z jasnym celem: tworzyć wartość, nie tylko przetrwać.

Zaczęło się od marzenia o własnej firmie – i tak, z czasem, powstała JMT Accountancy Limited Bookkeeping and Payroll Services. Biuro, które nie przypomina zimnych korporacyjnych gabinetów, ale miejsce, w którym klienci są traktowani z czułością – a nie „pozycje w arkuszu”. Dziś obsługuje ponad 110 klientów, budując z nimi nie tylko strategie podatkowe, ale też relacje, zaufanie i wspólną drogę do rozwoju.

Pierwszy biznes, który zbudował, musiał zostać zamknięty przez COVID i Brexit. Dla wielu byłby to cios. Dla niego – kolejny zakręt, który po prostu trzeba przejechać.

Niedawno przeszedł kolejną próbę – hospitalizacja, podejrzenie nowotworu mikrokrwawienie w mózgu. I co zrobił?

Wyszedł ze szpitala i... wrócił do pracy. Bo klienci, bo projekty, bo misja.

Ale sukces Tomasza to nie tylko cyfry i paragon na siłę.

To też jego ogromne zaangażowanie społeczne.

Jest aktywnym członkiem rady doradczej w Izbie Gospodarczej, gdzie pomaga kształtować polityki wspierające lokalny biznes.

Wspiera też osoby z niepełnosprawnościami – działa na rzecz organizacji CIC (assisted living) i Adult Autistic Society, przekazując swój czas, wiedzę i zasoby. Bo wie, czym jest życie „po drugiej stronie”.

Jest też mentorem w programie Be-Inspired na Uniwersytecie Staffordshire, w którym dzieli się swoim doświadczeniem z młodymi przedsiębiorcami. I robi to z sercem, bez pozy – bo wie, że sukces zaczyna się tam, gdzie kończy się strach.

Tomasz Putynkowski to nie tylko przedsiębiorca.

To symbol odporności. Przykład człowieka, który – choć upadł – podniósł się wyżej, niż wielu z nas kiedykolwiek sięgnie.

Za swoją wyjątkową historię, profesjonalizm, działalność społeczną i wpływ na lokalną społeczność został nominowany w kategorii Business Star.
