"Pretty" is Just the Packaging...


As a so called "Instagram Influencer" Hannah's posts are followed by more than a half a million people. Mostly women, age 24 to 38 who come for the yoga.
But there are many girls in their teens who benefit tremendously from hearing some truth about self-care that goes beyond the health and fitness norm.
I’m proud of the kinds of missives Hannah delivers to young women.
Too many girls have grown up surrounded by the advertising and cultural brainwashing that pushes young women to become “pleasers”… to play some kind of a support role, more follower than leader.
That’s bullshit, of course.
So I love to see these messages that encourage her followers to become almost militant in their quest to become nothing less than their own, independent, best selves.
