Fearless is a boudoir portrait series that features 40 women over the age of 30, where they share their tales of courage. The women who participate in the series share their struggles that they have overcome and now they’re celebrating, sharing, and inspiring their stories for those who are currently going through a struggle of their own to show that there is light on the other side. Here’s a participant who shares her story in her own words.
What fearless means to me is essentially having no fear. Not letting your obstacles stand in front of you and going out and trapping everything that’s holding you back. Just going and conquering it.
There’s so many reasons why I wanted to do this photo shoot. One, of course I’m just like every other woman in the world and I’m always so afraid of (people) body shaming me. I’m always like, “Oh! 10 more pounds, 15 more pounds, let me go get my hair done first.” and this time I decided to listen to my kids. My little girl who is so proud of my “tiger stripes” has shown me that, regardless, I am beautiful and I need to just go for everything. I decided it was time to put myself first for once in my life and I did it and it was amazing!
Stop listening to yourselves to push past the fear. Get out of your own way and think about the version that you once were when you were 7. Or when you were 8 and you didn’t know that fear. When you thought that anything was possible. When we were our own superheroes, our own Shera, our own Rainbow Brite. Become that little girl. Become someone that you can be proud of. Be the mom or the woman that you always knew you were and just do it one step at a time. Go for it!
