Finding Strength by Embracing Discomfort with EIC of ELLE UK, Farrah Storr

This week, editor in Chief of Elle UK, Farrah Storr, joins me from London! Farrah and I talk about her experience as a journalist in the fashion world, where she finds compelling and transformative stories and tells them beautifully using the UK’s top fashion magazines—like when she put me on the cover of Cosmopolitan UK! We spoke about how Farrah’s editorial work grew out of her background as a writer, and why she believes that using fashion to tell stories is a powerful tool for creating social change. Farrah doesn’t aim to be controversial, but she definitely doesn’t shy away from the difficult conversations happening on social media and beyond—learn about her perspective and how to broaden your own with me in this episode!
