Breaking Stereotypes: Celebrating the Beauty of Plus-Size Women
Manage episode 386646675 series 3339063
In a world where people often think there's only one way to be beautiful, it's really important that we try to change these ideas. Today, we want to celebrate how wonderful plus-size women are. We believe that beauty is not just about how big or small someone is, and everyone should be admired and appreciated. This new way of thinking challenges the old ideas and tells us to accept that people can look different and still be amazing. We want you to join us as we explore the inspiring world of plus-size women.
In this episode, I am joined by Hayley, a plus-sized woman and the Founder of Hayley Joy, a size-inclusive fashion brand specializing in Odd and REAL Plus sizes. Her mission is to make every plus-sized woman look beautiful and feel good about their body. Hayley shares her greatest motivator for helping plus-sized women, why people are so uncomfortable with women in bigger bodies, and how it feels to be in a position to help other women feel good about themselves. She also talks about the benefits of building genuine business relationships with workers and clients. Tune in to learn more about this and other exciting topics!
