Iskra Lawrence: From Supermodel to Saltair CEO

This week, I sit down with the unstoppable Iskra Lawrence – model, entrepreneur, and advocate for body acceptance – to explore how she transformed the fashion and beauty landscape. Iskra shares how she broke into modelling, weathered rejection in a ruthless industry, battled body dysmorphia and eating disorders, and redefined her self-worth on her own terms. We discuss the realities of performative inclusivity, why brands get it wrong - and how her own beauty company, Saltair, is fighting to make everyone feel welcome, and worthy. Iskra opens up about postpartum experience, finding the power to pivot when doors slam shut, and how self-care can be simple yet truly transformative. If you’ve ever felt ‘not enough’ in a world obsessed with size, or wondered how to bounce back from rejection, this conversation will spark hope and practical wisdom. Don’t forget to subscribe, share, and keep being unapologetically you!
