Masterclass with Lizzo

I recently had the amazing experience of rocking out to Lizzo this past Saturday with 7 of my awesome friends! She full-on gave us a masterclass in love and confidence. Therefore this blog post is dedicated to the one and only #Lizzo! 

In a world that often scrutinizes our looks, Lizzo stands as a beacon of self-love, body positivity, and unapologetic confidence. With her empowering music, infectious energy, and bold personality, Lizzo has become an icon, inspiring millions to embrace their true selves and celebrate their uniqueness. I truly believe each one of us was uniquely made for a reason, so why do we conform? 

Here are my top 5 mic drop lessons learned from Lizzo! 

1. Embrace Self-Love:

Lizzo's journey toward self-acceptance and self-love has been an inspiration to me and so many others. She encourages us to embrace our bodies, flaws and all, and appreciate ourselves for who we are. I danced the entire time she performed and was grateful to have a body that could move to the music all night long. Lizzo teaches us that confidence starts from within and that loving ourselves unconditionally is a powerful tool for personal growth.

2. Challenge Beauty Standards:

Lizzo's message of body positivity extends beyond mere self-acceptance. She challenges society's narrow definition of beauty and encourages us to redefine beauty on our own terms. She encourages each one of us to embrace whatever makes us unique. For me, that means swinging my amazing hair and shaking my booty! 

3. Embrace Your Voice:

Lizzo is known for her powerful voice and empowering lyrics. She truly wants each one of us to find and embrace our own voices. She encourages us to speak up, be heard, and share our stories with the world. Whether through music, art, or other means of expression, Lizzo teaches us that our voices have the power to inspire, uplift, and make a difference.

4. Overcome Obstacles with Resilience:

Have you watched the documentary about Lizzo? Her rise to become an international superstar didn’t come without some serious challenges. I loved learning about her personal experiences of overcoming adversity and the importance of resilience. She encourages us to face setbacks head-on, learn from them, and use them as stepping stones to success. Lizzo teaches us that setbacks do not define us; it is how we respond to them that matters. With her infectious optimism, she inspires us to keep going, even when the road gets tough.

5. Kindness Matters:

Lizzo's message goes beyond self-love. She believes in spreading love, kindness, and positivity to others. If you could have felt the energy in that arena, you would have been blown away. We were all vibrating on high and feeding off of the energy of others, especially Lizzo. I have to believe that if she sat down with me she would indeed say, “Kara, you are special, so very special. Go spread that specialness all over the world with love and kindness for others.” 

Lizzo's empowering message transcends the boundaries of music and resonates with people from all walks of life. Through her journey, Lizzo reminds us that confidence is not about conforming to societal expectations but about embracing our authentic selves and celebrating our uniqueness. So let's take inspiration from Lizzo and unleash our inner confidence, spreading love, and positivity wherever we go.

Love and light my friends,

Kara
