Owning your condition

People don't like to think they have a condition. They don't want to be defined by it. And they certainly don't want to teased because of it.

But this is the position Ash Soto found herself in from the age of 12.

Ash has the skin condition Vitiligo which causes patches on the skin where pigmentation has been lost. She started getting teased for it as if it was something within her control or she'd made a conscious effort to have it.

Fed up with the idiots that teased her, she came up with a way to own her condition and rediscover the love for her skin and, ultimately, her body.

Those familiar to Instagram may know her by a different name - RadiantBambi.

She's an amazing girl and she's found a wonderful way to make her condition as beautiful as the rest of her.
