Ready to feel awesome about yourself? And about all badass women in fact? Ashley Graham has the power.

She did it to us on the set of our July ‘The Body Issue’, when we asked her to tell us why she’s on a mission to combat the self-loathing we feel about our bodies for the magazine.

And she does it in the video below when she gives us her rules to body confidence. 

Over to you Ashley.
