While working as a health coach at a local university, Tanya Macdonald met many women who struggled with body image issues and realized a lot of them carried those from their youth and teenage years. She wanted to find a unique way to reach teen girls before they started developing things like physical insecurities or body shame. She organized her 'Embrace You' event to give a place for teenagers to have meaningful discussions and uplifting experiences about positive body image.

I was so impressed with Tanya's desire to act on the thoughts she had about wanting to make a difference with this event. And I loved hearing all the good suggestions she gave for anyone wanting to start discussions or create teaching moments about body image.
