Meet Heather, a boxer from Brooklyn. Heather is constantly told she’s “too pretty to fight” but her face has nothing to do with her boxing. Then there’s Jessica, who as a girl was told that only skinny girls could dress well. Today, she is a fashion icon and uses her blog to show that size doesn’t matter when it comes to style.

In the latest global research conducted by us, 7 out of 10 women agree that they get more comments at work about their appearance than their achievements.
