You are Beautiful, inside and out

What can we do to raise self-esteem? Why do we feel a need to cover ourselves up with make-up and the latest trends to feel beautiful?

Helping raise awareness of the negative body image is important. It is important for women to understand that what you see in a magazine shouldn't be the standard you set to achieve. What one person may find attractive, another may not. So why set the bar to something unobtainable? Why not start to accept yourself instead?

Don't compare yourself to a magazine ad, to a model with airbrushed skin and an airbrushed body. Embrace who you are. Beauty is not skin deep, beauty is your intellect, your strength, your heart and your drive. Who are you driven to be?

Confidence is important. A confident woman is an attractive woman. Ask anyone, and I'm sure they would agree.
