are you tired of being sold a broken brand of beauty?
Let’s redefine beauty.
My name is Melissa L. Johnson and I want to help women find authentic beauty. The kind of beauty their heart and soul long for.
Beauty can be hard to define. As women we are expected to be beautiful, which usually means physically perfect. Aesthetically flawless. It seems we can never be enough or do enough. And, sometimes, in a world filled with brokenness and suffering, it feels like true beauty is hard to come by.
At times, beauty seems impossible.
But what if true beauty exists and it’s more brilliant than we ever imagined?

American beauty ideals promote shame and brokenness among females of all ages. These women’s stories demonstrate exactly why we need to redefine beauty.
Ellen Wildman decided she didn’t want to hate her body anymore. So, she set out on a journey to heal and change that relationship. Ellen holds an MA in Biblical and Theological Studies from Denver Seminary and is the author of Already Whole: 90 Devotions for Being at Home in the Body God Gave You.
In my time with Ellen, we discuss lies from beauty and diet culture that get in the way of partnering with our bodies, how we can shift from our bodies being a project or enemy to our partner, and what it means to be made in the image of God.
