As women we feel the pressures to be perfect, to be more than we are.
Now is the time to disrupt to start the Real Revolution.
Time to redefine beauty, by not looking at our bodies but asking how does your body feel?
Our bodies are not decorations they are machines that are strong and powerful.
In a world where we spend more on beauty than education, now is the time to call out on the manipulation, perfect illusions, Facetune, photoshop and filter.
Covering up is not how we fix the problem, education is. Self-love and care is vital to changing the mindset and stereotypes ingrained in our culture.
Now it the time to be real. And by real I mean being you, what you feel deep within your skin- your truth, your purpose, your passion.
Forget the labels with the numbers on them the only label you need to love is the one called “MY SIZE.”

Is it so we are quiet for the other 364 days of the year?
Respecting women, uplifting women, seeing women as equals, as leaders, as more than their sex, believing in us, appreciating who we are as HUMANS has to be the reality and making these changes every single day is how we move into the future.
One day is ceremonial, 364 days is revolutionary.

Dear Body,
To your bumps, scars and lumps, your story lines.
Lines on your face, strong skin, tough heart.
Heart, it beats loud and soft.
Softly your breathe sighs in and out searching for peace.

WHEN is it okay to say to a woman, “Women have a scent when they are on their period. You can just smell them and you know you have to steer clear of them”. Yes, a man said this to my face. In fact, he said it to my sister as well while we were waiting for our lunch order. Let’s say it turned me off my food and got me pretty revved up. I was so mad by the following conversation it has taken me a week to actually think about how to write this blog.
