About this listen

As a photographer, I’ve always seen beauty differently. Even as a kid, I was drawn to the kind of beauty that made you feel something,not just what was trendy, but what was powerful. Over time, I realized how much of our self-worth is shaped by what the world shows us. And too often, what we’re shown is one-dimensional, unrealistic, and exclusionary. That’s where this campaign was born—not just from pain, but from passion. From the urge to take the very tools that once made people feel less-than and flip the script. To use photography, fashion, and storytelling not to diminish,but to restoreRaquez Rouse Art

  • "I don't believe in 50/50 in a relationship. My love won't be split like a bill."
    Aug 4 2025

    In this episode of The Shape Campaign, Shy opens up about the pressure of growing up too fast, her close bond with her mother, and how traditional values shaped her beliefs about love. She challenges today’s “50/50” relationship narratives and unapologetically shares her vision of partnership — one rooted in provision, protection, and rest. With bold clarity and soft strength, Shy reminds us that embracing femininity, legacy, and standards doesn’t make you old-fashioned — it makes you self-aware. Her story is about choosing what feels right for you, even when it goes against modern noise.

  • "I suffered with anorexia and bulimia to the point where my heart shut down..."
    Jul 21 2025

    In this powerful episode, Moriah opens up about the complexities of identity, family, and the fight to reclaim her health. Raised in Wisconsin, she grew up with a quiet strength—one shaped by the divorce of her parents and her own struggle with multiple eating disorders, including anorexia, bulimia, and orthorexia. What’s even more unique? Her father also struggled with anorexia in his youth and now advocates for awareness—proving that healing is not just personal, but generational.
