I think this would be a great step in my journey in learning to love myself; including my body, and embrace my differences. I want to feel beautiful, sexy, and brave.
I am a social worker, specialize in substance abuse. I have been married for 4 years, but have been with my husband for 12 years. We have two cats. We struggle with knowing if we want children or not. My family is very important to me. I value my time with my family as I am close to my parents and siblings. I am both an introvert and extrovert, I enjoy going out and doing things but then need a day to myself to recoup. Spending time with friends and family makes me happy.
My lack of confidence causes me to not advocate for myself at times, or speak up to others when I should. I avoid confrontation, and rather sweep things under the rug.
I have never don’t a session like this before.
I want these images to feel powerful, beautiful, and courageous.
Amazes me about my body: i like my soft skin, long eye lashes and long hair. Amazes me about myself: I am resilent. Any struggle I may have, I continue to get up and keep going.
When I am with my parents/family I feel full of purpose and contentment. I feel confident when I take the time to get dressed up.
