The Birth of Naked Sundays
Samantha Brett's journey from a TV news reporter to the founder of Naked Sundays was sparked by alarming observations of skin cancer cases among colleagues in her newsroom. This experience prompted her to reflect on her own sunscreen habits while working long hours outdoors under bright lights.
