  • “I want my outside to reflect how colorful I feel on the inside,” Stacy Barthe, the singer-songwriter of our new What’s Underneath episode tells us. After a suicide attempt caused by a lifetime of hating her body and feeling marginalized by men due to her size, Stacy can now say, “I used to only recognize beauty in other things, but now I acknowledge the beauty in me.
    To see Stacy’s entire journey from feeling less-than to feeling dope, watch her video, like it, then share it with your friends!

    Best quote by far: "Losing weight is an easy thing. It's the mental weight that's the hard thing."

    I feel like this type of forum should be introduced into school where students can tell their stories

    • @MrLumipigo
      @MrLumipigo Před 9 lety +24

      ***** I agree. If we showed some of these stories to kids, and encouraged them to try and tell theirs so far, maybe they would feel lighter about their issues and grow up a lot warmer and nicer. Society created so many unattainable values, just for the sake of commercialism, idealism and religious morals, that we tend to forget the most beautiful thing in the world is being actually being alive and living, not just surviving!

      +Char Doll I tried doing a version of this through photography after seeing Leonard Nimoy's "Secret Self Project" (it's a lot like this). It was really interesting, and if anyone out there likes photography, they should really try to do it. I'm not popular by any means, so I didn't expect a lot of participation... but we got around twenty people (including teachers) to come in with something that represented a part of themselves that was little-to-unknown. One student brought in her violin and blew away the few people who had come in to watch.The Bible teacher dressed up like Jesus because he wanted to be more Godly. Two other teachers brought in guitars because they had a secret dream or fantasy to be a musician. Seriously, you're right. Every school should do something like this... because it's really awesome.

    I witnessed a girl go through the same thing with a rollercoaster. She couldn't fit, and the man told her to get off. I could see how mortified she was, and I was standing in line and walked out of line and told her how she was so beautiful. She really was.. I really hope she didn't let that get to her.

    I don't like how you can hear her sadness in her voice. She's so beautiful I'll never understand why people have to be so hurtful to each other and to themselves. I wish from a young age we where taught to love ourselves.

  • @bibaa.9246
    @bibaa.9246 Před 9 lety +24

    You inspired this:
    I'm feeling so raw right now. Hearing my story coming from the lips of another, vocalizing my shames and pain and stripping down for the world brought on an immediate surge and release of buried emotions.
    This is a reminder that my story is someone else's story is someone else's story is someone else's story. Sharing this journey, this healing, brings about healing for others.
    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you so much, Stacy! You are an amazing flawed beautiful creature. :-) I am listening to your music now and I absolutely love everything I've heard! Totally a new fan and looking forward to seeing you live. Peace and continued blessings.

    She is beautiful inside and out and I don’t even want to say that because so many things nowadays are about being beautiful, but what really matters is being different being interesting being yourself and this woman is all of those things! Be strong and enjoy being you, because that is the most beautiful thing to be!
