Description

Self-love and authenticity can be challenging, but sometimes changing our perspective and viewing ourselves as art helps us see the beauty within. Listen in as I talk to Steffie, an artist with a focus on body positivity and creating an authentic and accepting space for anyone who needs it. We blur the lines between art and life and talk about creating art, self-perception and body acceptance, and even relationships and being true to ourselves around others.
