Hey there, It’s Coach Stephanie. Over the past few weeks, we’ve asked the question, “Why are we even talking about body confidence?” We’re talking about it because it provides true freedom for you in all areas of your life! And we are very excited to see that someone in the fashion world truly embracing and promoting body confidence! ======================r WHAT HAPPENED? ====================== Fashion designer Michael Kors recently included a plus-size model (meaning a model beyond size 12) in his runway show! He also made some great comments about body confidence for women of all body types. From the Huffington Post, Kors said: “I don’t like it when the models all look the same,” he said at the time. “To me it’s so incredibly boring to turn them into mannequins; it’s so much more interesting if we have different ages, ethnicities, body types, heights.” “The show was about strength and sensuality, and also about the diversity that we see here in New York that has inspired me my whole life,” he said. “There were models in their 20s, 30s, and 40s, models who are petite, tall, and curvy, models who are tomboys and others who are bombshells. My whole career, I’ve dressed a huge variety of people, because my job is to make everyone look great and feel more confident.” How wonderful it was to see so many different body types gracefully moving down the runway. We hope this is the beginning to giving all body types the confidence to see themselves reflected in models who represent “their” body! Bravo Michael Kors for refusing to perpetuate the unhealthy eating disorder culture of modeling! He chose to promote the beauty of the diversity of various body types! ======================r NOW…..WHAT ABOUT YOU? ====================== My friend your unique body confidence matters. And I want to help you. Why not start with my 2nd edition eBook, Five Easy Steps to a Better Body Image.

It’s time to take control, take charge of becoming the confident woman our body wants us to be. To your freedom, Stephanie_Wood Coach Stephanie
