HOW BODY CONFIDENCE HELPS YOU TAKE UP SPACE
KELSEY JONES | @KBTHEWANNAB
Kelsey Jones, alt fat baddie with a passion for makeup and helping others love the skin they're in by showing off her own with no apologies, tells us how to have body confidence so we can take up space and love ourselves no matter what we look like!
Kelsey Says...
"In the self-love journey, no step is too small, as long as it's going in the right direction."
Before Kelsey was an alt fat baddie sharing drool-worthy makeup and fashion on TikTok and Instagram she was following all the "rules" we all so easily fall in line with. That is until she boldly decided to face the fear of the unknown, leave nursing school and begin her self-love and body confidence journey. She's learned that we can't live our lives trying to please others and that self-love and body confidence comes from carving our own path and taking up space as our most powerful, badass selves. In this episode, we talk about,
- Why we can't make ourselves miserable living to please other people
- If people in marginalized bodies are conditioned to live their lives for other people
- Waking up and realizing we don't have any sense of who we are and what we want
- When we question whether we're taking up space or seeking attention
- Who's voicing the bully in our heads that's telling us taking up space isn't ok
- The feeling that comes from wearing what we want and knowing it helps other folks in bigger bodies do the same
- That trolls don't matter; it's about the people who feel better about themselves because of our content
