If you’ve landed on my website, you probably know that photo — the before-and-after pic that went viral back in 2013. When I posted it, I was fed up with trying to have the perfect body, so I decided to embrace the one I’ve got. But when the photo spread across the globe at lightning speed and I started getting media calls from as far away as Russia, I realised I wasn’t alone.

I was so tired of living in body shame — so I challenged myself to unlearn the harmful messages the world tells us about our bodies, and start learning the truth about what happens when we embrace our bodies instead of hating them.

And you know what happened? I began feeling grateful for my body, instead of loathing it. I got off the sidelines of my life and started jumping into adventure. And things just kept getting better.

Since then, I’ve made two films, written five books, and delivered hundreds of keynote addresses about the joy of embracing my body. And the best part? Millions of people have realised they have a choice — they can embrace their body, too.

Embracing my body has been a beautiful and powerful experience. It’s changed my life, and I want to share that joy and freedom with everyone I meet. But it’s not enough to sing from the rooftop — people need to want it for themselves and be ready to take action.

And that’s exactly why I created the Embrace You program. I wanted to turn all the incredible experience and knowledge I’d gained into a deeply meaningful connection with those still living on the sidelines, worrying about their appearance.

I know taking that first step can be daunting. Especially when you’re feeling low, deciding to invest in yourself to go after your dreams can feel as impossible as walking on the moon.

But I want you to do it anyway. See a door of opportunity and think, “What have I got to lose?” as you step through it.

This isn’t a program to fix you — it’s a chance to unlearn body hate and rewrite your life story with joy, possibility, and love — a 12-month backstage pass to jump on this journey with me and hundreds of others on the same quest for a fuller life.

Even though we only launched a few weeks ago, Embrace You has already built an inspiring community of 300 people across 10 countries, sharing their real stories, challenges and triumphs.

One member recently shared that she “went to the beach, in bathers, and ALMOST didn’t give a sh*t … that’s a first and I feel proud and free … to the point of happy tears”.

That really summed up the power of this group to me: it’s REAL. There’s no miracle overnight change that will suddenly make you love your body. Embrace You isn’t about eternal body love — it's about the freedom and presence you unlock by feeling grateful for your body. ALMOST not giving a sh*t about being on the beach in bathers is a massive deal.

We all have individual lessons we want to unlearn, and personal experiences to move past. But doing it together, and cheering each other on, is what makes this journey incredible.

So, come and join us … take that one small step to something you’ll never forget.
