Body Image and Toxic Comparison on Social Media with Supermodel and Advocate, Emme

Body Image and Toxic Comparison on Social Media with Supermodel and Advocate, Emme

By Dear Media, Whitney Port

I had the best time talking to Emme. I went into the conversation feeling a little all over the place (it was the launch day of my A Snug Autumn Collection with COZeCO!), but walked away feeling calmer and validated. Recognized globally as an advocate for women’s empowerment and body positivity, Emme is the iconic American model who fights for fairness and inclusivity in the fashion and beauty industries. During our chat we discussed toxic compassion on social media and beyond, how your body can be your biggest advocate, and the beauty of leaning on others in times of need. In her work as a brand spokesperson, television personality, podcast host, author, the first full-figured Revlon spokeswoman, keynote speaker, and creative director of her eponymous clothing lines, Emme’s message remains clear – self-esteem should not be decided by the number on the scale.
