Michelle Elman: Transforming Scars into Strength

I'm always reminded of those moments now that I have body confidence when, like, I, get an invite for a hot tub party- like- obviously not This Year, not in a pandemic, but like every year my friend throws a hot tub party and every time I go, I'm like I would have never said yes to This A Few Years Ago and like I would instead be sitting at home staring at these pictures on instagram and feeling really sad.
What happens when life throws you more challenges than you think you can handle? For Michelle Elman, founder of 'Scarred Not Scared', it meant enduring 15 surgeries before she turned 20. In this heartfelt episode of 'The Moments That Made Me', Roxie Nafousi sits down with Michelle to explore the pivotal moments that shaped her journey towards becoming a body confidence advocate.
Michelle opens up about facing her PTSD head-on and how she transformed her scars into symbols of strength and resilience. One of her key moments includes the brave decision to wear a bikini for the first time, challenging societal norms and her own insecurities. She emphasizes the importance of therapy and open communication in managing mental health issues. Through books and education, Michelle promotes body positivity and diversity, encouraging everyone to embrace their true selves.
If you've ever struggled with body image or mental health, Michelle's story offers hope and practical advice on unlocking your potential through self-love and manifesting the life you dream of. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that celebrates courage, resilience, and the power of saying yes to opportunities.
