Beautiful As I Am

A few weeks ago,  I was talking to a young lady who was one of the most beautiful young ladies that I had ever seen and had a  beautiful heart to back it up. But deep down inside, she hated herself.  My job allows me to see insecurities that a lot of people are able to hide from the world. We post pictures and status about the things that we want people to see, but rarely do we show the "other" side of ourselves. We post the best picture out of 45 pictures taken, only after we have placed a filter or two on it.  

It bothered me that she wanted to look as perfect and flawless as the girls in the magazines, while she was naturally beautiful just as she was. I wish I could show young ladies the before and after pictures in magazine. Retouching power is amazing. This is what motivated my Beautiful As I Am Campaign. As a woman,who has scars and a curvy physique, I have often times dreamed of being someone else. I wanted to be skinner and prettier, taller and have longer hair, but I finally grew to love the skin that I'm in. I'm beautiful just as I am! 

After spending time with some beautiful young ladies, I realized it's time for me to make some beautiful ladies feel beautiful! This is where I need YOUR help. Send me a short bio with a picture of an amazing, beautiful young lady that you know that needs that pick-me-up or confidence builder. 

And don't forget… YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!
