Upstander: An individual, group, or institution that chooses to take a positive stand and act on behalf of themselves and others.

Being an upstander is about doing something. It's not just sitting around and listening and waiting for someone else to do it.

Beautiful

Such a moving video.  Unbelievably true.  We, as women, are all beautiful. The hard part is owning it.

It’s so easy to say someone else is prettier, or to criticize ourselves because we don’t want to seem egotistical.  Goodness knows I do it.  The problem is that these negative ideas and words become ingrained in our minds, leaving us with warped images of ourselves.  

I used to hate what I saw when I looked in the mirror.  All I could see were my flaws, and I’m sure a lot of you have experienced something similar.  But I’ve worked on seeing more than that.  I’ve worked to see the positives. And in time I’ve come to realize that natural beauty is more beautiful than anything else.  

So please hear me when I say: Your background doesn’t matter.  Your face shape doesn’t matter.  Your weight doesn’t matter.  Look in the mirror and know that you are beautiful.

Spread the Light Episode 1!!!!! Hope you all enjoy :) Give us your feedback and ideas in the comments! 

Spread the Light Series

Hi everyone!!!!

I’m so excited to announce that today at 4:30 pm PST my friend Carmen and I are going to be releasing our first “Spread the Light” video! What we are doing is traveling around to different charities and spending a day volunteering with them.  There are so many great organizations that don’t get nearly enough recognition for the work they do—and we want to shine a light on them.  

Let us know what your favorite charities are, and maybe we’ll visit that one next! We really want this to be interactive, so make sure you give us your ideas. I’m so excited to begin this journey with you all and I hope you are too :) 

Sooooo….WOOT WOOT today at 4:30 be there or be square!!!!! 

I love you all! Thank you for your constant support and kindness <3
