I’m fat. I’m Black. I have dark skin and big curly hair that refuses to be tamed. I’ve got stretch marks and a ton of cellulite. I swear a LOT. I drink too much iced coffee and watch too much reality TV. I have never written a book. I don’t have an inspiring tale about how I overcame tremendous obstacles. And in spite of all of this, I have learned to love myself in a world that tells me that I’m not beautiful or worthy. I am extraordinarily ordinary, and yet overflowing with confidence. I believe that self-love is a revolutionary act of resistance. I have spent years doing social justice work in an effort to encourage people to embrace people who are different. What I realized that while we wait for society to become a more accepting place, people still deserve to feel love and joy for themselves.  I want to give keynotes that inspire people to stand proudly in their own skin.
