Middle schoolers are fearless 😂 They had me CRYING laughing guessing my age, asking me to sign their wrists for good luck at their track meet, and reminding me why I love doing this. Thank you to the amazing 6th graders at Shepard Middle in Naperville for making my day (all 150 of you 🫶). And huge shoutout to @andrea_trudeau1 for bringing me in 🥹 these kids are so lucky to have you! 💕 #bookstagram #TakeUpSpaceYall
✨ Honored to have been the Keynote Speaker at @teenvogue 💕 I got to share about my upcoming book Take Up Space Y’all, the power of using your voice, and answer incredible questions from the next generation of creatives. The energy in that room was unmatched, and I’m still so grateful to have been part of it. Thank you @versharma for creating such a beautiful space for us all. Now, I hate that I even have to say this, but I’ve seen the comments: yes, my body has changed. Bodies change- for countless reasons. What I find frustrating is that instead of centering the conversation on what I said and the work I’m doing, people still want to reduce me to how I look. I am more than my body. I am my voice, my work, my motherhood, my community, my love for showing up in the world exactly as I am. That is what should matter most. At the end of the day, I hope my presence reminds someone out there-teen, adult, whoever- that you are worthy, right now, in the body you have. And that taking up space, in every sense of the word, is powerful. 💖 #effyourbeautystandards Glam by my babies @makeupartistmichael @angelinapanelli Nails @puttheminacoffin

I can finally share with y’all that my @TEDxLausanneWomen talk is live! You’ll see that I was overcome with emotion—because this moment meant everything. I was the first speaker of the day, looking out at faces of people who traveled all the way to Switzerland just to hear me speak. All I wanted was to make us proud. (& I think I did 🥹) Standing on that stage, sharing my story, was a dream come true. A dream that started with an idea—#EffYourBeautyStandards—that changed my life forever. What began as a simple message of defiance became a movement, a community, and proof that when we take up space, we create space for others too. Now more than ever, the world needs us to show up as we are, to tell our stories, and to take up space—boldly, unapologetically, and without shrinking ourselves to fit where we were never meant to. I ended my talk on that very note, and I can’t wait to share that message in ‘Take Up Space, Y’all’, my upcoming book for tweens and teens🥹 Watch the full TEDx talk now—linked in bio! Thank you to my amazing team at @intention.team for always believing in me, y’all are the best! @the_puckett_list_ and your amazing TEDx team for hosting me- I love y’all! To @jlbeaverton for tailoring my dress and giving me one of my first modeling opportunities over a decade ago, @luxuryhair.ch for styling my hair, y’all killed it! @nailsbyraven @liltrublgrrrl1963 for taking such good care of Bowie, I’d be lost without y’all. @jesswins for listening to my speech 900 times, and lastly all of you for loving me fiercely. I wouldn’t be on that stage without y’all. ❤️ #TEDx #TakeUpSpace #EffYourBeautyStandards
