Nicola Correia Damude Instagram – “No one can shame you if you are not ashamed of yourself.” To all the Women and Girls like me who were told their whole lives that they were too fat or too “ethnic” or too tall or too “crazy” or too much and also somehow not enough…Don’t let them make you trade your self-esteem for work, or opportunities or some twisted version of acceptance. In the words of one of my great mentors @wgorling “No one can shame you if you are not ashamed of yourself.” So focus on that. On you. And someday those same people who tried to make you small will want to shine their light on you…and you won’t need it anymore. Because you will have your own.❤️ @actradiversityto @actranational @actratoronto @i_weigh @jameelajamilofficial #bodypositivity #bipoc @shadowhunterstv #representation @cbcq @huffpostcanada #womensupportingwomen #actra #womenempowerment @_support_women #measureyourpowernotyourdresssize 🎉🌞❤️ #bodypositivity #bodypositive #bodypositivemovement #womenempoweringwomen #shadowhunters @shadowhunterstv @coronercbc @nbcnurses @dieinagunfight @cwrepublicsarah #fitness #fitnessmotivation @brookermuir #motherofsons #childrenarethefuture #womenwholift #womensupportingwomen #womensstrength #powerfulwomen
