Girls Night Out – Embrace: One Woman’s Journey to Inspire every Body
Mon., Sept. 26th at 7:30pm at the Edwards Grand Palace Stadium 6 in Calabasas
I saw the preview(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__2AayArYfs) and instantly knew that I had to find a way to share it and help start a conversation that is long overdue. Luckily, Alison Ross & Dena Mesler Klotz had the same vision. Together, we are determined to share with other the extremely important message that this film holds. It shows the importance behind acceptance, the meaning behind working hard and overall, being able to finally embrace one’s self…something that even at age 45, I am still struggling with, on a daily, perhaps hourly basis. Join this global movement of body love and self acceptance. Taryn Brumfitt made international headlines when she posted the “after” picture of her body when she gained back the weight back after an extreme diet. She announced to the world that life was simply better in her “after” body. She made this film to inspire women to live more peacefully in their bodies and dedicates it to her young daughter who she hopes will never suffer body image problems. Reserve your tickets at https://gathr.us/screening/16901ASAP. No tickets at the door. Together we CAN make a difference.
