#iwentfirst: Wild and Free

Alone, I love seeing my body in the mirror.

My hair grows as it will. I wonder why I still worry about what the woman at Aldi’s thinks as I reach up for the chips on the top shelf in my Han Solo tank top. But as I keep prioritizing my own thoughts and feelings over the perceived judgements of others, I become the woman I see in the mirror- wild and free.

#iwentfirst is a collection of photos and captions from women who stood in the power of their own contagious courage, and decided to “go first” by telling the world what it means for them to take up space.

Have your own story of contagious courage?
