Rachel Farnsworth is a food blogger otherwise known as “The Stay at Home Chef.”
On her blog, Rachel shares “restaurant-quality recipes” that can easily be made and served at home.
Of course, anyone who has a virtual presence online knows that where there are awesome audience members who embrace your vision, there’s always someone who has to rain on the parade.
For Rachel, it was a commenter who called her an “old hag” for having gray hair.
In a video that has now gone viral, The Stay at Home Chef acknowledges that she doesn’t typically respond to negativity, but this particular comment struck a cord. On her website, Rachel opens up about a personal battle with Addison’s Disease. In the video she explains that she never may live to be 70 years old. Her gray hair is a beautiful reminder that this wife and mother of two is still living.
Her response is the body-positive smackdown that serves as a powerful reminder of what’s really important—and it has the internet applauding her bold proclamation of truth.
