Episode 32: Actor & Plus Size Project Runway Model Lauren Karaman on Unshakable Confidence, Body Positivity, & the Magic of Her Big Break

Lauren Karaman is an absolute joy. She's also an actor, a plus size model, a Project Runway alum, and the founder and creative director of the 36-24-36 Project. In this episode, Lauren tells the story of why she decided to pursue a career in the arts, the toxic diet culture implicit in so many theatre programs, and how leaning into who she is (instead of disowning it) paved the way for her big break as one of the first curve models on Project Runway. Lauren talks about that big break leading directly to path she's always wanted to take and her advice for anyone who feels they have to change themselves to get ahead.
