I am currently a junior at The Ohio State University studying strategic communications with a minor in business and professional writing. During my first year in college, I was quite uncertain what I wanted to do with my life. I explored numerous options but there wasn’t one particular career that gave me excitement the way I thought it should. I thought about what I loved to do and the talents I considered myself to acquire. It came down to writing. Ever since I was younger, I enjoyed placing words together to create meaning and express the way I felt. It was my own type of therapy. Now years later, I’m in my early 20s with the realization that my passion for writing can inspire others and lead me well on my way to a satisfactory career. Although my degree isn’t all about pen and paper, my interests introduced me to the possibility of pursuing something I absolutely love.
I heard about Self Love Beauty through an organization I am involved in at the university, PRSSA, and was immediately interested. Throughout high school, I struggled to maintain love for myself as I was filled with self-doubt and negativity. On my personal path of finding who I am, I realized I want to show young girls and women their importance. I want to eliminate the thoughts of “I’m not enough”, “I’m not beautiful”, “I can’t do it”, etc. and encourage positivity into their mind and soul. Every single person deserves happiness, deserves to feel loved, and deserves to believe in himself or herself and I desire to spread that message. In addition, I consider it very important to indulge in the simple pleasures in life-laughing with friends, seeing new places, making someone smile. I hope to portray that through my writing and embolden others to appreciate their life as it is.
It’s such an amazing opportunity to write for this blog and I appreciate you taking the time to read why I chose to be a part of it.
With love,
Heather
