Time to update the beauty standards!

I used to feel so self-conscious about my back rolls and tummy rolls—especially when I moved, stretched, or bent down.

I’d see them in the mirror and feel embarrassed, thinking, *‘Is everyone noticing this?*’ I realized the only reason I developed this insecurity was from scrolling through perfectly posed photos on social media or hearing an offhand comment about these so-called ‘flaws.’

The reality is, these folds and rolls are a normal part of the human body. They’re the proof that we are alive, flexible, and real—not frozen in some curated moment.

Yet, so many women, myself included, pick themselves apart over the smallest details. We spend so much time criticizing the very things that make us human.

The truth is, these moments of softness, these lines and curves, are not flaws—they’re a reflection of strength and life. So, I’m choosing to embrace the way my body bends and folds. I’m learning to appreciate the way it moves, supports, and carries me through everything, flaws and all.

If you’ve ever felt like this, know you’re not alone. Your body is not meant to be perfect—it’s meant to be lived in and loved as it is.

So, let’s choose to be a little kinder to ourselves today. Let’s celebrate the way our bodies move and serve us, instead of trying to shrink or mold them to someone else’s standards.
