"she was tall, she was slim, she was beautiful. the minute they announced my name, she rushed off the stage. you could hear her literally backstage, like, I lost to a fat girl."
phaith montoya, a plus-size fashion icon, turned these hurtful words into fuel for her rise. phaith could have let these words break her—but regardless, she chose to rise and we love her for it.
now a powerful voice in fashion with millions of followers, she’s redefining beauty standards and challenging body image norms. phaith is also a mental health advocate with NAMI, breaking the stigma surrounding mental illness.
this episode is a reminder that facing judgement & rejection is inevitable - whether it's coming from the outside world or from ourselves. but we always have a choice in the matter - to let those comments break us or work through the emotions & rise above.
regardless, we'd rather grow. x
