In this episode we are joined by the lovely Rachel Sherlock! Rachel has been a portrait photographer for over a decade. During her time in the industry she noticed how the role she played as a photographer has contributed to the insecurities many of us have been fed surrounding unrealistic beauty standards. Rachel has gone on a journey which resulted in her changing her portfolio to now include a very diverse range of models, not just the traditional slim white fashion model we are bombarded with in the media.Have you ever wondered how much editing and processing actually goes into the marketing images you see every single day? Well this interview reveals just that, and you will be left feeling shocked and empowered. As you discover no one actually looks like what you see in the glossy editorials. We also discuss how you should always use your craft to do good in the world and how more people in the media industry need to demand a change to diversify the representation we are repeatedly shown in films, tv, magazines, branding, and social media.Some of the amazing people we mention in the episode:@rachelanthiasherlock@thesharanproject@sukkisingapora@georgiarosehardy@jess_megan_@theslumflowerTo start your own therapy journey, with 10% OFF YOUR FIRST MONTH, head to our sponsor  betterhelp.com/findingyourfeetWatch this episode on our Youtube ChannelCheck out our brand new website! findingyourfeetpodcast.comShop positive affirmationsSign up to receive a positive Monday morning email from us once a weekJoin our community on instagram: @findingyourfeetpodcast
