Operation Beautiful

So a few weeks ago, I was feeling kind of down in the dumps, a little self-conscious.. when I stumbled upon this website called Operation Beautiful.

Operation Beautiful is this amazing project started by a woman named Caitlin Boyle from North Carolina. One day when feeling just as bummed out as I was, she stuck a little Post-it note on a mirror that read "You are Beautiful!" Knowing that this Post-it could be found by any other woman and that it would surely make them feel good, lifted her spirits.

From that day forward Caitlin posted notes in many different public places, as well as broadcasting her new ventures on her blog. After finding her notes or reading her blog, thousands of women started doing the same and sending pictures & personal stories about why they posted or when they found a note. The simple act of kindness soon became a mission to end negative criticism towards self & others.

You are.. really... I swear.  :)


After reading several of these stories on her website, and compulsively going out and buying her book (to read while on the treadmill) I was completely inspired.


So without further adieu...

This weeks mission:

Operation Beautiful Post-its . . . time to sticky-note public places to make my global ladies feel good about themselves again!

Love.
