“Being real is being honest with yourself. I’ve grown up in a community where your feelings don’t get discussed, or are seen as a weakness. It was perceived as being ‘strong’ when you hid and put on a face like an actress. But I’ve realised these past two pandemic years it's my personal mental health’s greatest adversary and weakness; faking it. I’m learning to find peace in saying ‘no’ to things. And finding beauty in simplicity." Cristina, Unreal P. champion of #letsbereal
An open, raw and real reflection and so relatable. We are privileged to have a beautiful community of Unreal P. champions sharing what being real means to them in a personal way. An encouragement for each of us not to fake it. Strength comes from exercising more of your true self.
