We’d love for you to share your journey to feeling beautiful in your own skin. Not the perfectly crafted story. Not the “I’ve got it all figured out” story. Give us your raw and your real—that’s what resonates with others.
We will continually be selecting pieces to publish on our platform so we hope your voice is in the pile soon.
How do you interpret beauty?
What makes you feel beautiful?
What has your journey to believing in your own beauty looked like?
Do you feel represented in the media? Why or why not?
How would it make you feel to see yourself / your struggles / your experiences represented in society?
What would you tell a younger version of yourself?
Can you recall a time when you felt the most beautiful/ less beautiful?
What sorts of things affect your perception of beauty? What causes you to think that a certain thing is “beautiful”?
What would it take for you to confidently know just how beautiful you are?
What was the first moment you remember feeling like you weren’t beautiful enough, just as you are? How old were you?
Why is it important to you to feel beautiful?
You can either record a 3-5 minute video or write a 600-900 word piece (it’s okay if you find yourself going longer though… good stories take time). Remember: the best thing you can be is vulnerable. Your story is enough and nothing should hold you back from telling it. Even if you are in process, we need what you offer.
Record in an area with lots of natural light. Keep the background simple.
Familiarize yourself with the storytelling on our website and social media platforms before hitting “send.”
Be conversational. There’s no need to be scripted or feel like the video has to be perfect. We love the videos that feel raw, honest, and like you’re sitting down to chat with a close girlfriend.
The best thing about your story is that it’s yours! No one can duplicate it. We love details that feel unique and specific to you.
