We live in a world where beauty is everything. Society tells us that if we just looked a certain way, if we had the right products, if we were skinny enough, then we would be enough we would have value. Society is wrong, but it took Katie H. Willcox years to understand this: Over the course of my 30 short years, I have both worked as a professional model and been the exact opposite of our cultures beauty ideal. I have struggled with my weight and felt like I didnt and never would fit in. Then I had a powerful realization: my misery and self-loathing didnt change with my weight or how pretty society thought I was, so my looks werent the source of happiness and worth that I had believed them to be. But then, what was? And how had I come to invest so much of myself in beliefs that were so untrue? In these pages, Katie shares the lessons she learned in her journey to find the answers to these questions. She reveals who gains from our feeling small and why we need to examine the messages we receive from our culture and our families. She explains how we can redefine beauty, make healthy the new skinny, and harness the power of our thoughts to choose self-love. Katie encourages us to discover our true magnificent selves, find our purpose, and pursue our dreams and help others to do the same. Join the movement!

Contents

I know what you might be thinking... Oh, another book by a model telling me to love myself exactly as I am. Easy for her to say! Im sure its easy to feel beautiful inside when youre also beautiful on the outside! And Im not saying your eye roll isnt justified. That is the world we live in. A world where looks are everything, and we are judged and valued based on how closely we match our societys beauty ideal.

Well, Id like to show you where society has gone wrong, how we have bought into a collective belief that is astonishingly untrue, how it is possible to love yourselftrulyexactly as you are right now, and why that is actually the best possible thing you could do... for yourself and for the world.

Hear me out. I promise not to patronize you or tell you anything that I dont believe is 100 percent true. I have been on both sides of the beauty fence. Over the course of my 30 short years, I have both worked as a professional model and been the exact opposite of our cultures ideal of what is beautiful. I, too, have struggled with my weight. I have been on the seesaw of gaining and shedding dozens and dozens of pounds. As I describe it, I have been the big girl in a skinny world, feeling like I didnt and never would fit in.

Then I had a powerful realization: I was miserable no matter which end of the weight spectrum I was on. My self-loathing didnt change with my weight or how pretty society thought I was, so my looks werent the source of happiness and self-worth that I had believed them to be. But if it wasnt my looks, then what was it? And, equally important, how had I come to invest so much of myself in a belief that was so untrue? How had I gotten so far off track?
