Design A Life That Lights You Up: Back2Basicsmode

My name is Shana Francesca.
Growing up, I watched the people around me and saw so much pressure to pretend.  Most people were scripting their lives from the dictations of their parents and society…here is how you become a female or male adult…do these things, don’t do these things…this is the life you ‘should’ be leading…what your life should look like…this is the life you want; this binary is the only acceptable way.

​In truth no one’s life around me actually looked like a life I wanted.  I saw women trying to make themselves smaller shoving themselves into control top panty hose, push up bra’s, tight clothes, not eating…judging each other’s eating, horrified by their own hunger…you’re not supposed to be hungry and you cannot take up space, you’re a woman…no you’re an object.
