It was a big issue for me too. I had a very difficult teen period concerning my body and started to feel really bad and self conscious about it. Also I looked pretty from afar but not great from close, so I was always scared to see the disappointed reactions of people coming close. I think It wasn't just my appearance, but I've realized it was deeper and also about who I was in general. It made me keep people far away from me. And now I'm starting to open up little by little. I love my body a little more everyday what everything it does for me and helps me do in this life. I don't shame people who do surgery, I really honour their choice, and a part of me always wanted to change things (if I could just snap my fingers magically and change it ^^), but at the same time, since very young, I've always thought "no I want to love myself without changing. I know I can love myself the way I am", and that even though it is a challenge with the very very low self confidence I had, I still had something within telling me that "I am enough". I don't need to be something else to be loved and to have my place in this universe. There's still days when I feel meh ^^ but I feel more and more love, loved and loving toward others and the world =) This type of video is great as well. It was a good reminder!
I've been watching you for almost 4 years. I love your videos, especially your photography, you're literally my favorite photographer. You inspire me in this way of shooting❤. And seeing you talking about those topics is so inspirational. Please post more often❤
such a beautiful video! In gerneral all your videos are so calming. I have watched your videos for about 4/5 years now and still often rewatch them because they/ you are just so comforting and amazing!
Brilliant! Very helpful! So nice to hear your conversation with Meg, especially about inspiring her daughters to see more than appearance. Lately, I’ve tried to have the feeling of gratitude about what my body is capable. I have a chronic illness that can leave me completely incapacitated in pain. So on days that I’m ok, I thank my legs for being able to stand and walk. Also, thinking if I was saying to someone else the things I think about myself often stops me from negative self-talk. Thank you for sharing this important topic! (Btw, is the 💍 👀 new?)
Being thankful for your body is so important and the hardest part is to do it when it's in pain, I really admire you for that. Yes the ring is new haha good catch!
Hi Andrea! First of all, it's great that you're ready to speak about body acceptance, but there's one minor detail that shows you are not taking the best approach. You uploaded this video (in which you are having "broad" shoulders) only because you've explained to the audience that you are not fat and that camera angle makes you so. The best message would be if you're thinking "hey, it's the angle, who cares" or even better "that is not important even if I am fat" and than upload the video without mentioning camera lenses. I'm writing you this message in good intentions, hope you will not think of it as intrusive. All the best to you
Oh I totally understand what you mean. I almost deleted that part to be honest. It's not that I found myself fat, it was more to explain that angles are not always your friend, but I probably didn't express myself in a good way..
