Be your own hype woman

I am so serious about this. No one can hype you up like yourself. You’re the only one who can truly love every part of you.

With that being said I’ve had a few conversations this week with friends and others that are literally picking their bodies apart, not giving themselves enough credit, and finding any excuse to hide themselves.

Come on, you need a little self love. It‘s my biggest form of love these days. If I don’t love myself, how is someone else truly going to love me?

I’m talking bathing suits, eating that piece of cake, not feeling bad because you’re having a rough day mentally or physically.

Let’s deal with it. The good. The bad. The ugly. Every single bit of it.

It is really hard to see my body as beautiful some days, I totally get it. I never wanted to have any of these surgeries because I was ashamed of what other people would think about my scars. Isn’t that insane? Surgery to give me a better quality of life and I didn’t want to do it because a few battle wounds that people were going to be able to see?

Now, I embrace every inch of them. I want to show them off. They’re conversation starters. It’s helping me lead to a whole new world of kind people who genuinely care about my story and I never thought that would happen.

So go put on that damn bikini and rock it girl. Remember those who matter, don’t mind and those who mind, don’t matter.
