'I'd aspire to some aesthetic goal and I'd get there and it just wasn't enough.'
Desperate to go to castings in New York, model, Steph Claire Smith, then just 20, was told she needed to lose yet another inch.
She adds: ‘I felt like I was constantly needing to change more and set new goals and aspire to some aesthetic goal and I’d get there and it just wasn’t enough.’Kic aims to change peoples’ relationship with the often toxic ideas of what fitness and wellness means, instead encouraging users to feel good, rather than reaching aesthetic goals.
‘I was very specific with the food that was entering my mouth, restricting myself from foods that I had always eaten and loved,’ says Steph. ‘Even with food I had to be a lot more flexible and I think what I found through motherhood is, letting go of the routine has been incredibly healthy for me.’
