56: Healthy is the New Skinny

Have you ever gotten down on yourself? Have you ever looked back at old photos from a year, 5, 10, or more years ago and thought "If I only looked like I did back then....?"    I get it, I was just there the other day after reliving my week competing at Mrs. America. I was getting down on myself, battling negative self-talk, and even on the verge of feeling like I was a complete failure: a failure as Mrs. Washington, a failure to my platform of health and wellness, as a stylist, and even a letdown to you, my audience.   Listen to today's episode where I share about my constant battle of self-acceptance and building back up my body image and dealing with my own negative self-talk. I hope you are able to find ways to encourage yourself after this open discussion.   This is your one stop shop for style, fashion, health and fitness. Deidra's passion is to help empower women.
