Own It

Don't trade your authenticity for approval. Whatever it is you stand for OWN IT!

In this world of social media that we currently live in, it is easy to get sucked into all things beautiful and try to emulate the lives of those we follow. I think that social media is a great tool when used appropriately. If you follow someone who has made major health, body, positive lifestyle changes and he or she inspire you to do the same - great. If you follow the chef who inspires you to cook more interesting meals - awesome. If you follow the fashionista who inspires you to wear more of the clothes hanging out in the back of your closet - fabulous. If you follow the athlete who inspires you to run the extra mile - high five. 

But if you are on social media and emulating someone just to fit in then quit looking at their feed and stand out. The only approval you need is from yourself. If you can be a better version of yourself than you were yesterday, then you are doing a pretty damn good job. I can promise you the people I meet who embrace their authenticity - are cool AF! 

Be an individual. Be authentic. Stand out.
