Hi! I'm Jess. Skin warrior, writer and teacher. Redefining beauty and how you see yourself.
Two years ago, I almost lost my life. As a result of medical mistakes, I developed chronic issues and was told I would never get better.

Only worse. During this period, I developed a very severe skin condition from medication that made me very difficult to look at. On top of everything else, this created dark, deep shame, so I hid away. Until I realised I couldn’t bear the thought of what happened to me, to happen to another human being.

This lit a fire in me and a sense of urgency that helped me overcome my own shame. To hopefully, maybe, if even a small possibility, I could help others, it would mean it'd all be worth it.

So I started 'in the Ra'. Where I share stories, research and my own insights to help you love the skin they’re in and heal with whole foods.
