Counselor Ashlee Bennett created this Instagram account as a way to get her teachings out into the world. Can't book an online appointment with her? Her feed is a great starting point to begin embracing body positive beliefs. One of her quotes we love: "Body size isn't an achievement."

@radhikasanghani
Journalist Radhika Sanghani launched a body positive initiative/hashtag called #sideprofileselfie to highlight "imperfections," like "my nose," she once said. Since starting it, Sanghani has received messages from followers who are thankful to the writer for being so open about her insecurities. "Slowly I'm falling in love my big, crooked nose," Sanghani previously told ES Magazine of starting the campaign.
