There’s something rather refreshing about seeing influencers encouraging and supporting others when it comes to the body-positive movement, rather than seeing them promoting diet ads or skinny teas that will instantly *so call* help you lose weight.
It feels like the world is moving toward a new normal that is evolving to create a more diverse environment and allowing us to normalise the reality of being human through all our glorious moments in life. There is so much more that can be done, but thankfully we’ve seen a handful of influencers challenging the status quo and building a community through social media to celebrate each and every one of us at our rawest moments.
The body-positive movement has become a lifestyle and reminds us that bodies should be celebrated no matter what they naturally look like (and not necessarily because it’s something cool and everyone’s doing it on IG.)
