Problem
The BMI gives Black women a warped view of their body image

Society puts a lot of value on a woman’s weight. Every inch and curve is critiqued while the media amplifies these negative perceptions. That coupled with a medical system clearly not created for Black people - it’s no wonder Black women don’t feel at home in their own bodies.

Opportunity
Start conversations that shed light on these disparities and challenges the norm society is complacent with. 

Our goal is to provide a space where women can retreat to and be surrounded with compassion. Healthy bodies start with healthy relationships - and that’s what we’re aiming to fix.

Solution
Launch a platform in the response to the unfair use of the BMI chart that police’s Black women’s bodies and create a space for women to relearn how to love their bodies.

32 Plus will be launched by Ethel’s Club - a black owned safe social and wellness platform created for people of color to feel included, considered, and not discriminated against.
