In this new episode Steven sits down with model, Toxic Shock Syndrome survivor and activist Lauren Wasser.
Lauren was born into a family of models and started modelling at just 2 months old. She was beginning to make a name for herself in the modelling industry when at 24 years old she contracted Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS) from a tampon. TSS is a life-threatening complication from bacterial infections, and due to infection both of Lauren’s legs were amputated. 3 years after being just 10 minutes from death, Lauren made her return to modelling at 27 years old in her now trademark golden legs. She now works to educate and raise awareness about the impact of TSS.
In this conversation Lauren and Steven discuss topics, such as:

The day that her life changed forever

How a tampon nearly killed her

Losing her leg at 24 years old

Her struggle with depression and suicidal thoughts

Finding her confidence again

Her return to modelling

How her golden legs became her statement piece

Finding her purpose in tackling Toxic Shock Syndrome
