Rion chatted candidly about something we're passionate about at Crown of Beauty. We asked her the age old question, "Have you ever struggled personally with trying to feel beautiful or being accepted by the world?"
“I think it's something that every girl runs into, especially for me having a difference and looking different on the outside. I think it's definitely something I've had to accept, 'cause I think that true beauty honestly is whenever you go and accept who you are. You can go screaming to the world who you are, chant it everywhere you go because everyone has something to offer and bring to the table! Even if you're struggling with that on a day-to-day basis, you always have to know that you're different, you're valued in someone's eyes, and you're always going to be who you want to be, because you're gonna strive for it and you're gonna want it.
Whenever you have a hard time accepting yourself as a person, and you get looking at magazine covers or TV or anything that may cause you to think, 'Oh I want to look like that,' you always have to keep in mind that there are things you have to evaluate yourself with. For instance, you have to make sure that you find what you love about yourself and cherish it, and walk around with confidence.
Because confidence is something that a lot of people lack, whenever they feel that way. I know that I have before, but you have to be true to you, and up your confidence even when you are feeling that way, because confidence is radiant and glows about a room. It comes from the inside out, not the outside in.”
