Embracing My ARM-azing Self

https://ift.tt/eLDuzv2

Hey there, lovelies! It’sss Amber! Some may know me by Amputee Amber, but most of you probably have no clue who I am. If that’s the case, Hi, I’m Amber. I am a something something year old that is currently living it up smack dab in the middle of the US. I was born with only one arm (well, 1.5 arms) due a congenital condition called Amniotic Band Syndrome. Today, I want to talk about something close to my heart: body confidence and self-acceptance. So grab that coffee, or wine (no judgment here), and let's dive into a real-talk session.

We all currently live in a world where beauty standards try to dictate how we should look, behave, and feel. It's like tiptoeing through a minefield of expectations set by people who probably wouldn't last a day in our shoes (and fabulous shoes they are 😉). But guess what? I've had enough of that noise. Amniotic Band Syndrome handed me a one-arm ticket to a life less ordinary. But did I let that define me? Heck no! I wasn't about to let society's rulebook dictate my story.

So, I decided to grab my confidence by the (or nub if you will 🤭) hand and give it a good ol' embrace. I started taking care of my body, inside and out. I tossed aside the idea of hiding my arm and started strutting my stuff like the fierce queen I am. And guess what? In just one month, I felt like a whole new me. It was like discovering a superpower I never knew I had.

At this point I decided to do something I have always thought was not an option for me. I decided to venture into the world of adult content creation on OnlyFans. Oh, the judgment, the whispers, the random jerks – they all came knocking. But honey, I've got more sass than I've got limbs, and I wasn't about to let anyone dim my shine.

I traded self-doubt for lingerie that made me feel like a goddess. I swapped insecurities for empowerment that radiated through every pose and every seductive snap. I traded timidity for an unapologetic and fierce presence. I traded self-consciousness for the radiant glow of self-love.

I changed my life. All by making the conscious decision to just love myself. Love my disability.

I know you are probably shaking your head or thinking of various reasons why this can’t be your experience. But you can! Just remind yourself self-love isn't a destination; it's a journey, and it's worth every step. It's about staring at your reflection and knowing that you're a masterpiece – quirks, edges, and all. It's about tossing aside the need for validation and owning your worth, all on your own.

Here's the tea: we're more than just bodies. We're stories, dreams, laughter, and all-around fabulousness. We're the stars of our show, and we don't need anyone's approval to shine. So raise those coffee mugs, wine glasses, or whatever tickles your fancy, and let's toast to this episode of our lives. Titled - The one where we kick insecurities to the curb, defy norms, and dance to our own confident beat.

What are you going to do TODAY to help boost your self-love?

-Amber
