Laurel thinks confidence is the best accessory

A Fresh Story Podcast, season 9, episode 3

In this episode, we sit down with Laurel (@laurelladeville) to explore the world of content creation and fashion videos. Laurel shares her creative process, from selecting timeless pieces that reflect her unique style to collaborating with brands. She emphasizes the importance of embracing body confidence and accepting our ever-changing bodies, rather than striving for an idealized version of ourselves. Laurel's approach to fashion is all about celebrating individuality and staying true to personal style, regardless of trends.

Laurel also opens up about the challenges of dealing with negative comments and criticism in the online world. She stresses the importance of maintaining a safe and positive online space and shares how she's built thick skin over the years. Additionally, she talks about the privilege of aging, rejecting societal beauty standards, and the supportive role her husband plays in her life. Laurel is passionate about advocating for body positivity and supporting small businesses, making her a strong voice in the online community.

Listeners will come away with valuable insights into creating fashion content, the significance of embracing body changes, and the power of surrounding oneself with positive influences. Laurel's journey serves as a reminder that trends should never dictate personal style, and that a supportive network is essential for navigating the complexities of an online career.
