He asked me to look in a mirror and to say I’m beautiful

I’m so excited…and a little scared to share this win! This is one of the very first pictures I’m using and sharing from my very first model shoot.

As I crazily decided a few weeks before my 32nd birthday that I would start take up modelling.

And promptly I manifested my first photo shoot…like literally the very first photographer that I reached out to loved the ideas I had and was happy to collaborate!

Not only that but he ended up being the perfect first photographer to shoot with, as he helped me a lot with my own confidence and teaching me some basics…

Talk about the universe falling into alignment when you’re meant to do something!

But here’s one of the key reasons I think why this was SO easy for me to manifest!

I was so detached from the outcome…like so detached cause part of me was absolutely terrified of the idea!!!

Like guys literally just over 3 years ago I would hide any time a camera would come near me!

I hated the way I looked and the very first coach I worked with asked me to look in a mirror and to say I’m beautiful and I literally couldn’t do it! I choked and cried!

So as you can imagine, it’s such a big win for me to be able to have the confidence to say I’m gonna take up modelling.

It’s not that I want to become a full time model or anything but I feel called to push myself out of my comfort zone to learn the skill of modelling as I know it will enhance my art and ability to share my story…

I know there are so many women out there like me who don’t love themselves enough to see their true beauty…and having been on both sides I really believe especially as a women when we don’t see, feel and express our own unique beauty …it’s like there’s always something missing!

Anyways I wanted to share this cause also realised one of the easiest ways to learn manifesting is to start with something you want but are also scared of…the detachment of the outcome comes completely natural.

Since you’re here, you can do me a favor…! Please, buy a great cup of coffee if you like this story. Your small purchase will keep me composing cool stories.
