In this special episode, we interviewed 28-year-old identical twins, Nola and Nadine Hanson. Nadine is a cis-gender woman and Nola is gender nonconforming. From a young age, Nola never felt at home in their body, and was told by society that opting to cut their hair short and wear “boys” clothing was not ok. They were forced to repress their true identity to make others feel safe and comfortable. Nadine, being so close to Nola through their profound connection, felt Nola’s pain. Just as Nola was not allowed to feel comfortable in their body, Nadine didn’t feel comfortable in hers, leading to years and years of disordered eating. As Nola has come to own their identity and power, Nadine, too, has been able to heal her own issues around her body. They have both been freed from the box others put them in, and although they are starting to not look so identical, they feel right at home.

57-year-old Mariel Hemingway, an Academy Award-nominated actress, mother, and author, can still climb mountains, literally and figuratively. Growing up tall and blonde in a famous family plagued by mental health issues and very public suicides, she found comfort in controlling every aspect of her life, especially her body and food. After compulsively seeking help through different gurus and spiritual practices, the freeing moment came when she suddenly realized that she was her own teacher and ok to be happy, even if it meant leaving others behind.

Uzumaki Cepeda is not defined by the sexual abuse she experienced as a child. Instead, she channels her trauma into creating literal safe spaces and installations dedicated to helping heal herself and others. Growing up in a Dominican community, Uzumaki had to unlearn whitewashing and programming around what makes a woman beautiful. Through stripping to survive, she found a renewed sense of empowerment and love for her body. But when stripping took up too much of her time, she left that life and risked it all to follow her instincts and become an artist.

At age 64, Caprece Jackson uses her style as armor and her wigs as helmets in a war to open doors that have been closed to her because of the color of her skin. Everyday, she is on the frontlines fighting against oppression, and hopes to become a portal for other women of color to be free to just “be.” In this powerful episode, Caprece discusses reconnecting to her natural hair and takes a cathartic step towards self-acceptance by taking off her go-to wig, which has provided her entry to jobs and status, for the first time in public.

Sophia Hadjipanteli used to hide her bushy unibrow behind sunglasses when she walked down the street, but now she holds her head high as people stare. Incessantly bullied as a kid for her eclectic style, Sophia found comfort in the strength of her Greek immigrant father who had risked losing everything in the pursuit of living freely in America. Comfortable when it comes to feeling like an outsider, Sophia is finding success as a model disrupting beauty standards with her pronounced unibrow and urging the fashion industry to diversify representation from an authentic place.

At age 34, Beth Fairchild was told she only had 2 years to live. Through this diagnosis, she realized that her conventional beauty had never defined her. Letting go of identifying with being 5’10, with blonde hair and double D breasts, made her realize that she was always enough and had always been. Now, 6 years later, Beth is still confronted with her terminal diagnosis everyday but has found a strength and gratitude she never knew she had. In this time, Beth met her soulmate at a fundraising event for cancer and has become a leading voice for women with Metastatic Breast Cancer. “I have no control over my cancer, no control over what it’s gonna do to my body. But what I do have control over is how I live my life and what I do right now in this moment.” - Beth Fairchild in the latest episode of What’s Underneath.

We are thrilled to announce that The What’s Underneath Project is back! Our first episode kicks off with Ghanaian born Enam Asiama, a plus-size model who is paving the way for all fat bodies in an industry that has often only embraced a curvy, hour-glass shape. Despite being told throughout her life that she shouldn’t wear bright colors or patterns because of her size, she wears them all and with joyful confidence that says a big f* you to the world. Incessantly fat-shamed, sexualized and degraded, Enam’s weapon against it all is that she loves her body and is calling out to the fashion industry to address her hunger for the choices of clothing that smaller women enjoy. Don’t try to dim her light, for as Enam states, “I’m a divine energy coming to consume your space.” Thank you to Lunette, the convenient, ecological and economical menstrual cup, for making this episode possible! https://store.lunette.com/ #inclusivity #plussizemodel #empowering #bodyshaming#strongblackwomen#bodypositivity#identity#bodylove#individualandsociety #discrimination#whatsunderneath #stylelikeu#standingout#afro#blackgirlmagic If this story is transformative on your own journey towards acceptance, please consider becoming a member of StyleLikeU on Patreon so that we can build a world where everyone feels comfortable and safe in their skin.

In collaboration with Bluebella Lingerie, we interviewed four diverse women, May Simon, Ali Tate Cutler, Alex Bruni and Riya Hamid about how they define sensuality and sexuality on their own terms. No matter each of their respective struggles with gender, size, age or cultural identity, by reclaiming their bodies from limited beauty standards, the male gaze and its objectifying, diminishing stronghold over our self-image, they have each stepped into their personal power. As an act of irrefutable defiance, Riya Hamid states, “ I feel the sexiest now that I have ever felt... this is a beauty that I want to share with the world and what the world does with it is not any of my business.” Founded in 2005 by Emily Bendell, Bluebella is a lingerie brand with strength and modernity at its heart; designed to redefine sensuality.

Born in Mozambique and growing up in Maryland, where pretty was synonymous with white and skinny, curvy and brown-skinned Carmen spent most of her middle school days in the bathroom at school trying to “fix” herself in the mirror. Eventually, the homogeneity Carmen was surrounded by created so much self-hate that she turned to cutting herself in order to find relief from the alienation and sadness. It wasn’t until she came to New York City, where Carmen began to see her likeness, both on the streets and in other bigger sized role models in the media, that Carmen began to love her body. Recognizing that she felt the most insecure at her skinniest, today Carmen feels beautiful like a Renaissance painting, with her rolls, thick thighs, and overall “squishiness.” Feeling “not too fat for anything,” she is now smashing the status quo as a model herself and continuing the up and down journey of healing her wounds. #stylelikeu#gettingdressed#bodyimage #bodyacceptance#bodypositive#selfharmscars#relationships#model We’d like to extend a special thank you to sponsor, Mad Hippie, for supporting our movement and helping to bring this episode to life.

Living in a Van without Succumbing To The Man. For Artist, Activist, and Community Event Producer, Corinne Loperfido, it was the combination of a dad with the motto, “if it’s free it’s for me,” a friend who said, “who needs a man when you have a van?” and a teacher who asked her, “what are you willing to risk?” to protect the environment, that led to a life-changing “aha” moment. Two years ago, Corinne radically changed her existence when she moved into a van and began living a zero-waste lifestyle, buying essentially nothing that couldn’t be returned to the earth (besides the fuel that she uses as efficiently as possible). By wholeheartedly committing to the future of our planet, Corinne stepped onto a path to her most awakened, humble, empowered and stylish self. #stylelikeu#gettingdressed #zerowaste#closets #selfacceptance #wastefree #vanlife #iamwhatsunderneath #theselfacceptancerevolution #selflove #grwm We’d like to extend a special thank you to sponsor, Mad Hippie, for supporting our movement and helping to bring this episode to life.

This week’s installation of our new series, Getting Dressed: An Act of Self Love, brought to you by Mad Hippie, features WearYourHappy Fashion Designer and Sewing Tutor Karen Arthur. In her episode, Karen courageously shows us how a bout of depression, brought on by empty nest syndrome and menopause, gave birth to her most empowered, free self. At 57, Karen’s colorful hats, brogues and bespoke dresses and skirts, are a truly joyful reflection of her newfound understanding that only by confronting and embracing your whole self, shadows and all, can you lead a life that is “bonkers” good.

In this week’s 3rd installation of our new series, Getting Dressed: An Act of Self Love, brought to you by Mad Hippie, harpist, dancer, producer, singer and siren Elsz reveals the loss of self that they endured during an abusive relationship and how breaking free catalyzed a rebirth that has them reclaiming their body and resurrecting their spirit. Elsz’s transformation sparkles in the album they are releasing this year (which dives into their story of abuse and its cycles), their comfort in being alone, the relationships they’re now attracting that mirror the glory of their new-found self-worth, and in a self-expression through style that honors their Sri Lankan roots while taking back a once-shackling colonial clothing and making it their own. Elsz is raising money for their album on Kickstarter.

We are excited to bring you the second installation of our new series, Getting Dressed: An Act of Self Love, created with Schmidt’s in honor of Pride. Getting Dressed marries our hero series, The What’s Underneath Project, with our original Closet Series, as we take our subjects to a new edge of self-discovery. Beginning in their underwear and getting dressed into their fullest self-expression, through intimate interviews in the mirror about self-image and identity, we learn how each person's style has become an act of claiming and celebrating who they are. In our second episode, two months after top surgery, Ellen Ford is breathing a huge sigh of relief. The hero of their own story, Ellen takes us on a journey from having unrelenting tantrums as a six-year-old over having to wear frilly dresses and skimpy bikinis, to stepping into their most powerful energy today in suits and swimming trunks. Living outside of the gender binary, today Ellen is accepting the multifaceted layers of themselves and infectiously beaming with pride as a result.

Their own hero, Janaya’s all-black uniform can be packed in 7 minutes flat in case they are called to the front lines as an activist and organizer, where they have the responsibility of redirecting rage and rallying community around politically and socially charged moments. You will also find them wearing black in the boxing ring, where they have learned to punch without apology and where they have found refuge as a black, queer, non-binary person in an inclusive space. Janaya’s heroic qualities are also pronounced by their title of Futurist, which was given to them by members of the Black Lives Matter chapter in Toronto (which they co-created). Janaya speaks to communities around the world about the need to communicate and listen to one another despite the insidious Racism, Bigotry, Transphobia, and Islamophobia that runs rampant in our society. Without communication, they believe we will stay in the same cycles of separation and segregation. Despite a traumatic childhood, or perhaps because of it, living to bridge differences and create more understanding between people of all walks of life is perhaps what most makes Janaya the superhero that they are.

Jacob Tobia is the Marie Kondo of gender. #stylelikeu #iamwhatsunderneath #selfacceptance None of us are meant to be cookie cutter and Jacob Tobia wants to make sure you know it. The writer, producer, and author, has come to their glam meets cow-girl meets urban street style by way of growing up exploring their gender creativity in a binary world that wanted them conform. Giving themselves permission to cherry pick their gender-style preferences, like not shaving their body hair and wearing heels, has birthed the idea that at our essence we are each multifaceted selves and Jacob wants that brilliance to shine for everyone! “I'm the Marie Kondo of gender. I want to walk through everybody's metaphorical gender house and be like, ‘Hold all these different aspects of your identity to your chest, decide if they spark joy for you. If they spark joy, I'll teach you how to fold them and keep them, store them nicely, honor them and display them how you want. And if they don't spark joy, get rid of it.’” For Jacob’s entire life and style story, listen to their episode of our podcast, What’s Underneath, on iTunes (http://bit.ly/WUStyleA), Spotify (https://spoti.fi/2l894E9) or Stitcher (https://bit.ly/2HNthb1).

#stylelikeu #iamwhatsunderneath #selfacceptance Stepping into her queer colors. This week we look inside the Closet of this week’s podcast star, co-creator, writer and director of HBO’s High Maintenance, Katja Blichfeld. In her video, Katja busts binaries and revels in the freedom that claiming her queerness at 40 has brought her. No longer concerned with the male gaze, form fitting clothes, makeup or the dark colors that kept her in hiding, Katja is proving to herself and the world of television that being comfortable in your skin is what’s “pretty,” not conforming to fit into a made-up, patriarchal ideal of beauty. For Katja’s full life and style story, listen to her episode of our podcast, What’s Underneath, on iTunes (http://bit.ly/WUStyleA), Spotify (https://spoti.fi/2l894E9) or Stitcher (https://bit.ly/2HNthb1).

#iamwhatsunderneath #selfacceptance #stylelikeu Never too bold or too loud! In a world that is quick to judge and fear the other, Lebanese filmmaker Pam Nasr doesn’t want to overlook the many ways we can communicate and seek bonds without words, whether it be through the food we share or how we dress. When she walks down the street in bold colors or flaunting her strong legs, Pam’s style screams, “I love life” and “I want to connect.” Growing up in Dubai with a dad who gave her the space to push boundaries and wear mini-skirts in a country that is more conservative due to its tradition has given Pam the grit needed to take risks. “Growing up, it was always a question of what is too much skin or what is being too loud? What is attracting too much attention because that's something I constantly heard around me. But that's not something that I ever questioned because for me, too much skin wasn't problematic. It's about how you carry yourself in what you're wearing. I don’t allow room for someone to put me in a box. I put myself in the box that I want to be put in.” For Pam’s full life and style story, listen to her episode of our podcast, What’s Underneath, on iTunes http://bit.ly/WUStyleA, Spotify https://spoti.fi/2l894E9 or Stitcher (https://bit.ly/2HNthb1 If these stories are transformative on your own journey towards acceptance, please consider becoming a member of StyleLikeU on Patreon so that we can build a world where everyone feels comfortable and safe in their skin.

Emma began changing their hair color when they first went public about being a rape survivor. We have admired Emma for a long time, ever since we became aware of The Mattress Performance, Emma’s brave response to Columbia University’s failure to take action after Emma and a handful of other students reported cases of assault by the same Columbia classmate. In 2014-2015, Emma walked around campus every day of the school year carrying a mattress in order to "make sure that rape didn't happen anymore." In this video, Emma shares how changing the color of their hair has been part of their journey from fitting in to standing out, and an important step in releasing their shame and reclaiming their body.

Watch more: https://bit.ly/2JUwTxf Last week we spoke with Damien Echols who was incarcerated on death row for more than 18 years for murders that he did not commit. It became crystal clear during that interview that the heroism of his story was as much to do with him as it was his wife, Lorri, the heroine of this truly incredible love story. Lorri was a successful architect working in New York when she saw the first Paradise Lost film (which documented the circus of Damien’s first trial) at the Museum of Modern Art in 1996. She was so overcome with emotion after seeing it that she sat down and wrote what would become the first of over three thousand letters that Lorri and Damien exchanged throughout his time in prison, which included 10 years in solitary confinement. Within two years Lorri had quit her job and moved to Arkansas where she married Damien and spent the next twelve years fighting for his release, as project manager of the extraordinary amount of efforts that were needed to give Damien the freedom that he so deserved. “The minute I saw him I just loved him. I just was so struck by seeing him in person. We had glass between us, I couldn't touch him. And it was so emotional and tough and painful because that's when you come in real contact with the suffering.” Follow StyleLikeU: Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/9wJ_b Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stylelikeu/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stylelikeu Twitter: https://twitter.com/StyleLikeU

Jeanne has seen this exploitation from two angles: first through the objectification of her body as a model, and later at a factory worker protest in Nepal. This led to an “Aha” moment when she met an older Nepali woman while traveling, who told her, "your eyes look like a celebration, but your outfit says ‘No.’” At that moment, Jeanne traded in modeling, the Berlin party scene, and her all black wardrobe to create Zazi Vintage. Through her company, she is bringing the soul and stories of colorful, vintage, and handmade garments to the world, choosing to collaborate with women from Uzbekistan, Mongolia, Afghanistan and India, giving them the fair compensation they deserve.

Kornelius Werhahn-Mees forgoes both, transacting in trust and love instead. Status in the form of a Goldman Sachs business card was not the life for heavily tatted Kornelius, who had enough of the banking world after just a year in finance. From the plethora of pornographic images being passed around to the worship of luxury cars and expensive champagne, the dreams of his coworkers were not his. Instead, he opened a shop in Berlin called Soul Objects, where banks and their paraphernalia (i.e. credit cards) are not accepted and his clients can leave with an item and pay him later. In the 4 years he has been open, no one has reneged on their promise. Similarly, his marriage is bound by a deep love and desire to commit, not by flashy rings, lavish ceremonies, and the bureaucracy society would have you believe is a necessity. He believes that “you start with 100% trust. It's a matter of respect, it's a matter of saying hey, you are trustworthy. It's a good feeling. Our world works exactly the opposite.” Watch Kornelius’ full episode and melt a little over his perspective on fatherhood, marriage and camouflage clothing. ________ FOLLOW STYLELIKEU: Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/9wJ_b Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stylelikeu/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stylelikeu Shot in Berlin and Paris Founded by mother-daughter duo, Elisa Goodkind and Lily Mandelbaum, StyleLikeU is a movement for acceptance rooted in radically honest docu-style videos that give voice to role models of all races, ages, genders, and body types who stand proudly outside of norms and are comfortable in their own skin.

As fundamental to Agathe as her tomboy layers is brutal honesty around her struggles. From the destabilizing fear of abandonment to dressing to avoid the invasion of the male gaze, Agathe’s journey from darkness to truth has grounded her in healthy communication with her partner, who committed to sobriety when she found it in herself to give him an ultimatum. Agathe may know pain, but her refusal to be ashamed of it has given way to a fuller self with no tolerance for being a model and wearing someone else’s style, or for love that is selfish. ________ FOLLOW STYLELIKEU: Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/9wJ_b Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stylelikeu/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stylelikeu Shot in Berlin and Paris Founded by mother-daughter duo, Elisa Goodkind and Lily Mandelbaum, StyleLikeU is a movement for acceptance rooted in radically honest docu-style videos that give voice to role models of all races, ages, genders, and body types who stand proudly outside of norms and are comfortable in their own skin.

Instead of ‘numbing’ our pain, acknowledge it. Fannie herself is unstoppable in her own healing process with her no holds barred honesty about the pain she has endured being an afro-diasporic woman in the face of the white colonial gaze. Her acute awareness has given her the rare wisdom to understand that she feels the most beautiful, not because of how toned she is in a selfie, her job or who she is sitting next to, but because of the intrinsic value of being herself. This and more truths that need exposing for the injustices that they are: scruffy-chic style and the time and vehicles for healing are privileges of the white, skinny and wealthy in Fannie’s full episode. ______ FOLLOW STYLELIKEU: Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/9wJ_b Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stylelikeu/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stylelikeu Shot in Berlin and Paris Founded by mother-daughter duo, Elisa Goodkind and Lily Mandelbaum, StyleLikeU is a movement for acceptance rooted in radically honest docu-style videos that give voice to role models of all races, ages, genders, and body types who stand proudly outside of norms and are comfortable in their own skin.

Shot in Paris and Berlin. First, we have Lauren Bastide. Blonde and stereotypically pretty, Lauren was constantly told she should be a model growing up: “society’s ultimate power position for a woman.” Instead, she became a journalist and landed her dream job at Elle magazine. Over the decade she spent there, Lauren witnessed the industry she once idolized morph beyond recognition: advertising’s perverse influence over journalism was staggering. The final straw was when a furry Fendi keychain advertorial took editorial precedence over her feature on a case of police brutality. “At some point you have to listen to your guts, I guess, and my guts told me to get out of there,” said Lauren. The vintage-layered mother of two walked out and never looked back. This, and lots more radical realness, like dispelling the myth that pregnancy and motherhood is always a bohemian dream, in Lauren’s episode. Today you can find Lauren doing it her way on “La Poudre,” an unfiltered, empowering podcast for women. https://bit.ly/2m2n4k4 --- FOLLOW STYLELIKEU: Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/9wJ_b Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stylelikeu/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stylelikeu Shot in Berlin and Paris Founded by mother-daughter duo, Elisa Goodkind and Lily Mandelbaum, StyleLikeU is a movement for acceptance rooted in radically honest docu-style videos that give voice to role models of all races, ages, genders, and body types who stand proudly outside of norms and are comfortable in their own skin.

Gaby Dunn Says Goodbye To Empty Markers Of Achievement And Embraces Life's Weaving Journey | Subscribe: http://bit.ly/2pOUenx Buy Our Latest Book: https://goo.gl/71nAnU For YouTuber Gaby Dunn, the pressure to be successful at a young age had her pushing herself to work around the clock. Growing up with an alcoholic parent and shouldering responsibility for her younger sister, accomplishments became a cry for attention. “I had my first article in The New York Times Magazine when I was twenty-three, and I was obsessed with that. I’d just walk around and be like, ‘I’m only twenty-three and I wrote for the Times.’ I didn’t even remember what it was about,” she admits. No longer chasing empty markers of achievement, Gaby is embracing the winding journey of her life, including in her partnership with bestie Just Between Us co-star Allison Raskin, an open relationship with her boyfriend and taking the time to slow down and eat lunch despite her robust and demanding career. Filmed in 2016 and previously hosted exclusively on Fullscreen’s subscription platform, this fall we are thrilled to re-release eight episodes of The What’s Underneath Project on our YouTube channel, free and accessible to all. -- Follow StyleLikeU: Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/9wJ_b Instagram: https://instagram.com/stylelikeu/ Facebook: https://facebook.com/stylelikeu Twitter: https://twitter.com/StyleLikeU Tumblr: http://stylelikeu.tumblr.com/ Watch More StyleLikeU: Popular Videos: https://youtube.com/watch?v=e1E_W5Vf5...

I don't hear a woman actually talking, saying a passage in the Bible.’ [The priest] couldn't answer that.” In her episode of The What’s Underneath Project, actress and founder of ‘Free The Nipple,’ Lina Esco, shares the journey from her religiously confining youth, to running away from home and suffering drug addiction and homelessness, to hitting rock bottom and attempting suicide after a breakup, to forging the path to her own liberation, by liberating all women. “If a man is topless, a woman can be topless. I want something in the constitution - an amendment that says that men and women are equal. It’s about changing the world. When I'm around that energy, I feel beautiful.” Filmed in 2016 and previously hosted exclusively on Fullscreen’s subscription platform, this fall we are thrilled to re-release eight episodes of The What’s Underneath Project on our YouTube channel, free and accessible to all. -- Follow StyleLikeU: Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/9wJ_b Instagram: https://instagram.com/stylelikeu/ Facebook: https://facebook.com/stylelikeu Twitter: https://twitter.com/StyleLikeU Tumblr: http://stylelikeu.tumblr.com/ Watch More StyleLikeU: Popular Videos: https://youtube.com/watch?v=e1E_W5Vf5...

I still love myself,’ that is so empowering, and that itself is activism.” In her episode of The What’s Underneath Project, Crystal Valentine boldly unravels her journey from being an insecure teen striving to conform to the flowy hair, skinny jeans beauty norms of high school, to becoming an irrepressible spoken word poet and a force for truth that can’t be silenced.

Beautifully Handsome: Grace Dunham Realizes They Don’t Have To Check a Gender Box To Be Free | Subscribe: http://bit.ly/2pOUenx Buy Our Latest Book: https://amazon.com/True-Style-Whats-Underneath-Self-Acceptance/dp/0789332868 Grace Dunham redefines the beautifully handsome grey space of being transgender. Growing up, Grace agonized over fitting into the box of 'perfect femme lesbian.' Surrounded by traditionally successful family members, Grace struggled with feelings of shame and felt they needed to compensate for their sexuality by being the ‘perfect girl’ in every other way. When their friendship with trans activist Reina Gossett opened them up to infinite possibilities of gender identity, Grace began to question why we associate body parts with a way of being in the world, and felt liberated to pursue a journey that defies simplistic categorization. "I don’t know if I want to be a man, if I want to take hormones, get top surgery, if I’m a woman. When am I going to fucking figure it out? Maybe just accepting that I don't have a name for myself and accepting that uncertainty is a more accurate reflection and a more freeing reflection of who I want to be, than trying to just figure out which box is best. [...] I think self acceptance and self love is a process that might not ever come to an end.” Filmed in 2016 and previously hosted exclusively on Fullscreen’s subscription platform, this fall we are thrilled to re-release eight episodes of The What’s Underneath Project on our YouTube channel, free and accessible to all. -- Follow StyleLikeU: Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/9wJ_b Instagram: https://instagram.com/stylelikeu/ Facebook: https://facebook.com/stylelikeu Twitter: https://twitter.com/StyleLikeU Tumblr: http://stylelikeu.tumblr.com/ Watch More StyleLikeU: Popular Videos: https://youtube.com/watch?v=e1E_W5Vf5...

How Overcoming Bulimia Taught Jessie Kahnweiler What It Means To Be A Woman | Subscribe: http://bit.ly/2pOUenx Buy Our Latest Book: https://amazon.com/True-Style-Whats-Underneath-Self-Acceptance/dp/0789332868 As a teen, the uncut writer and director of 'The Skinny' Jessie Kahnweiler was nearly destroyed by the feeling that her emotional intensity and her curvy body were “too much.” In a culture where young women are conditioned to diminish themselves, Jessie told us, “I remember looking at Delia’s catalogues, you know? No, no, no, American Girl catalogues — sweet, pretty girls. I wanted to be fucking Minnie Mouse. I wanted to be adorable.” She turned to bulimia as a way to make herself smaller and empty herself of the bad feelings, a coping mechanism she struggled with for a decade until she hit rock bottom and found sharing her story as a road to her recovery. Creating autobiographical videos about everything from bulimia to sexual assault, Jessie tackles the stories that terrify her most with an honesty you can’t help but see your most vulnerable and powerful self in.

Life doesn't end at 50: Felicia and Edmundo's Unlikely Love Story Spans a Century Subscribe: http://bit.ly/2pOUenx | IG: https://instagram.com/stylelikeu/ | Buy Our Latest Book: https://www.amazon.com/True-Style-Whats-Underneath-Self-Acceptance/dp/0789332868 Fleeing the Nazi regime in Europe with her family in a treacherous escape to Cuba, Felicia met Edmundo at a dance in Havana at age sixteen, where they fell in love. He stayed in Cuba to fight in the revolution and become a legendary writer, and she left Cuba for New York and started a family with another man. But everything came full circle decades later when Felicia attended a film screening based on Edmundo’s book in New York. As she reveals, “There was a scene in the film, a flashback about us. Suddenly I saw myself the way I had been when I was young up on the screen. It brought everything back for me.” Forty-five years after their first meeting, they reunited and turned their intense attraction into a lifelong commitment. In a profit-driven culture that encourages fixation on youth and devalues the beauty of life’s journey, Felicia and Edmundo, now in their late 80’s, reveal what real cool is - the messy, no bullshit, enchanting truth of love and aging. As Felicia explains, “If I lived my life over again, I don’t think I would live it all that differently. I’ve learned a few things, but I’m not sure I would even apply what I’ve learned. I think I’d make the same mistakes all over again. In a way, I feel as if the whole world is inside of me by now.” -- Follow StyleLikeU: Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/9wJ_b Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stylelikeu/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stylelikeu Twitter: https://twitter.com/StyleLikeU Tumblr: http://stylelikeu.tumblr.com/ Watch More StyleLikeU: Popular Videos: https://youtube.com/watch?v=e1E_W5Vf5...

Lauren Wasser: How One Model Lost Her Leg to Toxic Shock Syndrome and Found her Life’s Purpose Subscribe: http://bit.ly/2pOUenx | IG: https://instagram.com/stylelikeu/ Lost in a superficial world of ‘cool girls,’ model Lauren Wasser abruptly went from getting into every club to fighting for her life due to Toxic Shock Syndrome. Her painful, intensive struggle to cope with her amputated leg left her feeling robbed of her freedom and independence. But Lauren says, “As much as I wanted to kill myself and end the misery, knowing that my little brother would come home and be the one to find me — I didn’t want him living with that. I realized that I had a purpose.” With a herculean strength that will make you feel as if you can surmount anything, she left behind the mindset that superficial looks equal value and became unafraid to pursue a life rich in a purpose outside of herself. The take-no-shit model is championing the fight to teach women about the risks of TSS. “I wake up and I wish I could go outside and fucking run a marathon. I can’t think about what I had. I’m moving forward. I don’t think I would trade my experiences. My heart wouldn’t be full and I wouldn’t feel like I’m doing good.” Filmed in 2016 and previously hosted exclusively on @Fullscreen’s subscription platform, this fall we are thrilled to re-release eight episodes of The What’s Underneath Project on our YouTube channel, free and accessible to all. -- Follow StyleLikeU: Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/9wJ_b Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stylelikeu/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/stylelikeu Twitter: https://twitter.com/StyleLikeU Tumblr: http://stylelikeu.tumblr.com/ Watch More StyleLikeU: Popular Videos: https://youtube.com/watch?v=e1E_W5Vf5jU&list=PL_jxFaykzU8CNN6LlyNobxhhRntyQ7Vne The What's Underneath Project: https://youtube.com/watch?v=pOKp5BN05yQ&list=PL_jxFaykzU8CSjCdSJamAv6Yh_S48prrm The What's Underneath Open Call: https://youtube.com/watch?v=vTvG79W9TBw&list=PL_jxFaykzU8CT8n4yCGKwC1Ud4-UG-6hw Dispelling Beauty Myths | StyleLikeU X Allure: https://youtube.com/watch?v=O5gtSoB463g&list=PL_jxFaykzU8CXkSL1o7pNpiA0n4d_yreq Business Inquiries: info@stylelikeu.com ----------- StyleLikeU is led by mother-daughter duo Elisa Goodkind and Lily Mandelbaum, who are on a mission to inspire acceptance by revealing what’s underneath personal style.

First up is Self Evident Truths’ founder iO Tillett Wright. At the age of 6, iO declared himself a boy in order to play soccer, and his journey as a gender revolutionary is honest, hilarious, brave, and absolutely inspiring. From inexplicably awkward sleepovers as an adolescent to boarding-school romance as a teen, the ease with which iO embraces his transgenderism -- “that physical in-between place” -- has made his compassion limitless and given him a brilliant understanding that each person has their unique process of self-discovery.
