Summary

In today’s episode, model & former Miss Arizona, Jordan Wessel, breaks down the truth about the modeling industry. From inclusivity, to unprofessionalism, inconsistency, and pay, we learn that the modeling industry isn’t so glamorous afterall. Jordan shares how modeling has affected her self-esteem, body image, and lack of privacy. She gets vulnerable about not fitting the “standard” size model - “too big for standard model, but too small for curve”, and the unhealthy tasks models are asked to perform just to book the job. Jordan reminds us that your worth should never be measured by your weight and shares her advocacy for confidence, body positivity, and empowerment through her podcast, I am More Than.
