To say I’m not affected by so much focus on the body would be a lie. I am. But I really do push against it the best I can. And how do I do that

I start by thanking God for my body and thinking about my abilities in both mind

and body… My ability to surf. To serve my family. To grow and birth children( I could go on and

on about this one!). To love others. To bring hope to a hurting, fearful, and challenged

world.

I also focus on my health. I eat nourishing food, I get movement in my day (yet not

overdoing it), and I make sleep a priority. I also use natural skin care and avoid anything

toxic. Good health will set us up for natural beauty and for a healthy mind too.

I pray for my worries and struggles. I breathe and rest and do my best to avoid

overloading my plate to minimize stress and overwhelm.

I also focus on where my identity lies. I trust that I’m loved and accepted by God.

Life is so much more than the perfect body and to those of you out there really

struggling, I feel for you, and fully acknowledge the cultural pressure is real.

Please know that you are not alone and there are ways to free yourself from this struggle.

So today, I encourage you to say no to self abuse. Say no to eating disorders. Say no to

accepting the pressure and the lies. I encourage you to spend less time on social media

(yes, get off this place!) and more time with those who love you, and more time doing

things you love. Spend more time in nature! You can also start learning about healthy

living.

You can choose to celebrate your true beauty and know you are loved. You have

purpose in this life. You can focus a little less on yourself and instead look for ways to

help and love on others. You can shine in so many meaningful ways. You can bring hope

and light by being real and honest.

Be brave enough to say no to the lies and instead be beautiful YOU. Be persistent for as

long as it takes to overcome. And finally I encourage you to talk with someone you trust.

And be honest!

No pressure of course, but if you are really struggling and don’t know where to start

check out my online courses: “Anchor Your Identity” with Tim Tebow, and “Let Go of

Comparison” with Arielle Estoria, or “Optimize Your Health” with Dr. Dustin Dillberg. I

developed these courses because I believe in these topics and want to give you tools to

be Unstoppable in your own beautiful life!

This is just the tip of the iceberg, but I hope you are encouraged and consider this a

heartfelt pep-talk from me to you!

Lots of love Font
