Book excerpt: “Evocative.” — The Cut One of the most outspoken voices gracing the cover of magazines today encourages women to be their most confident selves, recognize their personal beauty, and reach for their highest dreams in this wise, warm, and inspiring memoir. Voluptuous beauty Ashley Graham has been modeling professionally since the age of thirteen. Discovered at a shopping mall in Nebraska, her stunning face and sexy curves have graced the covers of top magazines, including Cosmopolitan and British Vogue, and she was the first size 14 model to appear on the front of the wildly popular Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. The face of brands such as H&M Studio, she is also a judge for the latest season of America’s Next Top Model. And that’s only the beginning for this extraordinary talent. Ashley is leading a new generation of women breaking ground and demolishing stereotypes, transforming our ideals about body image and what is fashionable and beautiful. A woman who proves that when it comes to beauty, size is just a number, she is the voice for the body positivity movement today and a role model for all women—no matter their individual body type, shape, or weight. In this collection of insightful, provocative essays illustrated with a dozen photos, Ashley shares her perspective on how ideas around body image are evolving—and how we still have work to do; the fun—and stress—of a career in the fashion world; her life before modeling; and her path to accepting her size without limiting her dreams—defying rigid industry standards and naysayers who told her it couldn’t be done. As she talks about her successes and setbacks, Ashley offers support for every woman coming to terms with who she is, bolster her self-confidence, and motivates her to be her strongest, healthiest, and most beautiful self.

Book excerpt: Are you ready for change?Are you tired of soul-crushing rejection, hook-up artists, and assuming quality men will not like you because of your clothing size? The guy that you liked, didn't like you back. Now you have settled into the Friday night routine of the catching up on your shows, surrounded by take-out and a carton of ice cream, in tears. The "not your type" guys are creeping on you, waiting for you to give in. Self-defeating negative thoughts plague you, tempting you to believe that nothing will ever change, and that you are just not enough? I get it, I know what it's like.If any of this feels familiar, then you have picked up the right book. Hi, I'm Daisy. I've been married for 11 years. I dated online and in person as a curvy, plus-sized woman, and met my husband as a curvy, plus-sized woman. During these years I have spent countless hours listening to, and talking with women about their dating lives. It was not until I started wellness coaching that the pieces started coming together. This happened by accident. I was just trying to get healthy myself, and then I chronicled my journey online, and eventually I had a following. Through this journey I met several single women who sincerely wanted to get healthy. However, there was a deeper cry, they wanted the love of their lives even more than a smaller jean size. S0, I decided it was time to tell my story. When I processed my story, I found that there were three non-negotiables. To have the relationship that I truly desired. These three attributes had to be in place: God-Centered, Authentic, and Committed. God-Centered: A foundation in Jesus for a healthy relationship. Authentic: Be authentically you and find someone who is authentically themselves, because putting up a facade is exhausting, and will have the opposite of it's intended effect. Committed: a relationship with someone who will be there through the good days and bad days, not looking for a way out whenever it is convenient for them.It's time to press delete on limiting beliefs, negative past experiences, and people who have rejected you and let you down. If you are ready to be the best version of yourself, take the necessary steps, and let yourself be seen for the beautiful amazing woman that you are, this is for you.
