Right now, there is a fabulous campaign taking place involving makeup master Bobbi Brown. Luckily, I’ve been tapped to help spread the word about this empowering campaign for women across the world. The idea is for women to explore what makes them feel powerful–what gives them confidence. I’ve decided to write a little about my mom as my source of pretty powerful<\/a> inspiration.<\/p>\n

My mom has been an overwhelming support system for me throughout my entire life. She would literally do anything for me! Though sometimes we bicker, as mothers and daughters tend to do, I know she’s always on my side and my #1 fan through the good and the bad.<\/p>\n

My mom has taught me to be savvy, kind, thrifty, and to always remember to laugh. Basically, she has taught me to be PRETTY POWERFUL<\/strong> on a day to day basis, and to always remember that we are stronger than we may realize. I’ve been blessed to have a mother who truly cares about the well-being of people and animals alike, and who speaks her mind. For these reasons, and many more, my mother instilled the pretty powerful traits that I try to exemplify today.<\/p>\n

Get Involved!<\/span><\/p>\n

NOW, it’s your turn<\/em><\/strong>. Who or what makes you feel powerful? It can be anyone, from a family member to a friend, to someone you feel connected to and may not personally know.

\"\"<\/a>Remember, it’s not about your makeup, your clothes, or what you have on the outside. Being pretty powerful means you’ve embraced who you are on the inside…and that kind of pretty is the best<\/em><\/strong> kind of pretty! Use you makeup to accentuate<\/em><\/strong> who you are, not hide it. You are all beautiful–now who taught you to be that way? \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
