POV you moved to DC to achieve your dream of being a lawyer at Howard so you do 4 years and 5 internships in pursuit of said dream. After you graduate you join Teach for America for two years to fund said dream. And suddenly you are a nurse, a therapist, mediator, a pseudo mother in a classroom and now you have an occasional panic attack all while studying for the LSAT. - A global pandemic happens and you realize that while you do believe in service, you don't believe in it at the expense of yourself. Instead you want to inspire people to show up as their best selves and be proof that black,curvy girls from the South West side of Houston, Texas don’t have to go into law, medicine, or the corporate world to be successful. - So you started posting consistently on Instagram and gained 20k followers in 3 months then you take the $23,000 you saved for law school and move to LA with a girl you met at a pre law program 3 years ago even though yall only really ever met twice. - But all of this is in hopes of becoming a signed model. And after a year and a half of modeling you never actually apply to any agencies because you have a deep rooted fear that all the good things in your life have happened by chance and are never the result of your hard work (even though you work hard af). Then you realize that the feeling of trying and failing is never as bad as doing nothing at all. And you rather live a life of “oh well” instead of “what if” so now in April 2022 you finally start to apply to dream agencies because what’s for you will be for you and the only thing that beats a fail is a try. - #thebtwnscout #wilheminamodels #naturalmodelsla #curvy #curvymodel #plussizemodels #plussizemodelsearch #bodypositivity #bodyposi #bodypositive #bodypos #effyourbeautystandards
