Today’s Pass The Tiny Mic guest, @marielle.or.something is truly AMAZING! This episode is so close to my heart, y’all... If you’ve ever looked at yourself in a mirror and felt something negative well up inside of you then today’s pass the tiny mic is for you- Mar’s wisdom👏is👏for👏you. Honestly, it’s for everyone!
This conversation hits! As someone who grew up with nicknames like ‘Shamu’ and ‘fat girl’, I internalized everything I was learning about what was deserving of love and acceptance so I became someone that chased an ideal or a standard instead of someone that embraced my own worth and value. Mar comes through with so much wisdom and advise on ways to celebrate the bodies we’re in now and love what they do for us🎉🙏❤️
It takes awareness and A LOT of sustained effort to unlearn untruths. Untruths like: “I’m only worthy of love and acceptance if I look a certain way”.
Like everything we talk about on Tiny Mic Micro News it takes awareness and sustained effort to unlearn untruths and it all starts with us.
“Self acceptance is what leads to the acceptance of others.” -Marielle LaCosse
