What is the one piece of advice that transformed your relationship with your mental health?

It’s OK to not be OK. It helped me realise that I can give myself the space to work through things and struggle, but it’s going to be OK.

What is one thing we’re still getting wrong in our conversations about mental health?

I think there’s so much great work being done, but we’re just getting started. I truly believe mental health is as important as physical health, which is why I’m pushing for more education in schools. We need to continue to have these conversations in learning atmospheres that destigmatise mental health and empower those around us to share their stories.

How does the Make a Rare Impact campaign help to support the Rare Impact Fund’s mission, and how does Sephora support the initiative ?

I am so honoured to partner with Sephora for the second year in a row on Make a Rare Impact for World Mental Health Day. On [10 October], 100% of Rare Beauty sales at Sephora will be donated to the Rare Impact Fund. Key partners like Sephora allow us to make the biggest impact and reach more young people in communities around the world.
