Viola Davis has proved once again that she is a goddess among women. In her acceptance speech for the #SEEHER award, she perfectly articulates feelings that every woman has had at one point in her life.

Losing weight and feeling sexy are things that we all worry about, but why? Why do we think that being skinny or losing "a belly" are requirements? Why does a Juilliard-trained, Tony Award-winning, Oscar-nominated actress still get feelings of inferiority?

The simple answer: these ideas have been hard-wired into our brains from advertising, mass media and companies who make money off our insecurities.

Who we are doesn't cut it for them anymore.

We're better than that. We're better than the people that try and make us feel bad about ourselves and we all deserve the privilege of being comfortable in our own skin.

All of us.

People are coming into our world, not the other way around. They sit with us- our size, our age, our race, our everything. Because we don't all have to artists to understand our own power, people can choose to experience us or choose not to. But we have the power to question our world, our preconceived notions and everything that surrounds us.

We have that power. The question is; are we going to use it?
