Ciara looks stunning in Givenchy on the cover of InStyle Magazine’s upcoming edition tagged “Woman of ambition on a mission“. In a sit-down interview with the magazine, she talks about her family, staying celibate before her marriage to Russell Wilson, her music and the viral #LevelUpChallenge.

On her music and launching a new label

On reclaiming her pre-baby waistline
I would wake up in the morning, breastfeed, eat a small meal, go train, come back home, pump, eat a small meal, breastfeed, eat lunch, and then go train again. I truly believe that self-love is key, and my definition of self-love is taking care of myself.
On abstaining while dating Russell
If you want to get somewhere in life, you’ve got to have a compass. You’ve got to know where you really want to get to. And my heart, soul, spirit, and mind just desired to be loved. To be truly loved the right way. I knew I didn’t want to cry tears of hurt anymore. I didn’t want to keep going around in circles.
On the viral #LevelUpChallenge
I would be lying to you if I said I didn’t wonder what the fans would think, being that I hadn’t released new music in a while. I was told that it wasn’t going to be very successful.
