I think it’s important for girls and women to find their passion because it can lead to so many different career choices and creative possibilities. I believe that developing and devoting a little bit of time to your passion whenever you can adds to personal happiness and feeling fulfilled.”- Monique

Why do you believe in Healthy is the New Skinny? I believe in Healthy is the New Skinny because it is positive, motivational and inspirational. HNS urges everyone to cherish inner beauty as well as loving the natural and healthy you. Â We want to know why you feel this movement is important and why you want to be a part of this change. I feel this movement is important because it helps all people, especially girls and women, to think in a more realistic, positive and healthy manner when it comes to their bodies. I want to be a part of this change because I used to have very low self esteem and poor body image and would love to help educate and connect with women and girls to help them understand the value of self confidence and self love.

You are amazing and you are destined for greatness.”
When you think about the word "happiness" what does it look like? The word “happiness” to me looks like a smile. If you could go back in time to bring a message to your high school self.... what would you tell her and why? I would tell my high school self, “You can do it. You are beautiful. You are amazing and you are destined for greatness.” Do you think change is possible? I think any type of change is possible, but that an individual has to be self-motivated to change indefinitely.
What makes you laugh so hard you cry? My feet being tickled. What do you love most about being a girl? Being able to relate to other women. What do you want girls to know? I want girls to know that anything in life is possible and beauty starts from within. What changes would you like to see for your generation and the next generations to come. I would love to see everyone be more loving and tolerant of each other’s differences.
Think of your favorite picture of you as a child.... if you could go back to that day and give yourself a message, what would that be? You are beautiful and you are loved.
When you are alone and left with only your thoughts and dreams, what do you wish for? I wish for eternal happiness and peace. What does being healthy mean to you? Being healthy, to me, means being comfortable and completely accepting of the person I see when I look in the mirror. Being healthy means loving the real me.

If your inner beauty sparkled, what color would it be and why? It would be FUCHSIA because it is vibrant and warm.
