Speeches

Speeches 

Sometimes I give speeches about my program.  I am sharing these because they are special to me!  Most recently, I was a speaker at the Virtual Closing Ceremony for the Kirsten Haglund Foundation Freedum Walk and spoke about how I started the program and also the truth about being a positive body and self image mentor.

This next one, I gave in 2015.  It was when I was just starting to learn more about the importance of positive body and self image.  I had just turned 12 when I did this one!  Yes I look like a baby!

This last one, I gave in 2016.  This one was after I had officially named Self-ValYOU and I had worked on all my tools, and had my presentation, and was designing the materials I give out!  In this video it was November 2016 and I won a national award for my speech.  The first time I gave it was in June of that year.  I was 13 in this video.  

I love watching these because no matter what, sometimes life is hard.  It is impossible to be perfect and positive 100% of the time, and everyone has good and bad days.  When I watch these it reminds me that in the big picture I have come so far, and there is so much more I want to do!  I have been working on this program for a long time and I will work on it for a long time in the future.
