Squarespace presents: What does it mean to “make it”?

Steph Claire Smith is incredibly passionate about healthy living and body confidence in young people from all corners of the globe.

Early in her career Steph became aware of the common misconceptions of what ‘healthy’ looks like, and saw an opportunity to embrace different body shapes and sizes and promote body positivity, as opposed to weight loss or fads. So, alongside her business partner and best friend, Laura Henshaw, Smith launched Keep it Cleaner. An app with a philosophy to empower society to be confident in their own skin, promoting self-acceptance and sustainable healthy choices.

Steph’s established and grown a number of businesses, has over 80 food products stocked in Australian supermarkets and pinches herself everyday for the experiences and inspirational people she’s had the pleasure to meet along the way.

Rachael Sarra is a multi-disciplinary artist, designer and businesswoman whose work is an extension of her being and experiences. As a mixed race, First Nations contemporary artist from Goreng Goreng Country, Rachael uses art as a powerful tool and outlet to explore themes she often grapples with and her work is often the resolution of such themes and conflict within herself.

Rachael’s work often challenges and explores the themes of society's perception of what Aboriginal art and identity is.
