Reframing Adversity into Opportunities - Disability/Beauty Advocate Xian Horn

Xian Horn is a joyful woman with Cerebral Palsy serving as a writer, mentor, teacher, and positivity activist. Her vision is to expand the world's concept and representation of beauty: to celebrate new faces and new bodies. With her personal stories and on-going mentoring work, Xian is invested in contributing positively to self-esteem and the collective self-image, especially for women. Starting in 2010 with a popular YouTube video, she has called for the inclusion of people with disabilities in various beauty campaigns.

Xian has on-going programs with NYU’s Initiative for Women with Disabilities' Young Women's Program, where she leads a workshop she created, called Give Beauty Wings, also the name of her organization. She is also a blogger for Positively Positive. Visit http://xianhorn.weebly.com/press.html and http://www.positivelypositive.com/author/xianhorn.
