🖤 · Breakthrough Body Blueprint

🖤

I was the girl who wore a t-shirt in the swimming pool. The girl whose mom made her put on an entire bottle of sunscreen before I could so much as look out of the window. The girl who had glasses and asthma and lingering baby fat and freckles. I was the girl whose skinny blonde friends would make fun of her behind her back.

I carried the weight of that far beyond the playground. I grew into an adult who didn't see her own worth.

Then I became a mom of three little girls.

I looked at them and saw how perfect they were, and I thought about the fact that it would break my heart for any of them to think for one second that they weren't beautiful.

I realized that I have to value myself. I have to lead by example. I have to show them how to take care of and love themselves the way they deserve, by doing that for myself. Because they see me.

I challenge you to look in the mirror and try to see yourself the way someone who loves you sees you. Tell yourself that you are strong and capable. You are beautiful. You are worthy. You deserve to be the healthiest version of yourself for your own sake and for the sake of the people you love and who love you.
