Learning to love your body just the way it is- with Jessica Wenger McPhaul, founder of Naked Rebellion

from unreazon · host Kelcy Valletta

What does the color nude really look like? Who's skin tone does it actually match? My guest this week was fired from a commercial job when she was unable to find bras to match the skin tones of all the talent on set. She saw a need and had one simple question... why aren't all women represented? And the idea for Naked Rebellion was born!Jessica got her start making costumes for a small youth theatre in Arizona when she was 16.  A few years later, she moved to LA to attend fashion school and has been working steadily in film/tv ever since. Starting out as an assistant costume designer, she quickly progressed to costume designer for films and tv. Projects have taken her to Seattle, New Orleans, New Mexico, Texas and Washington DC. Jessica has been in both the Costume Designers Guild and the Costumers Union for over a decade. Her work can also be seen on screens, in print, as well as digitally and she considers herself extremely lucky to be a part of the House Of Cards team that has received an Emmy Nomination and back to back Costume Designers Guild Award Nominations.  Jessicas tenure in the film industry opened her eyes to just how terribly exclusive the fashion industry was. She was appalled at lack of representation of all women in products, advertisements, choices- so she new she could do better. With the help of a local fashion incubator in Arizona, Jessica was able to launch Naked Rebellion in six short months. Naked Rebellion is an inclusive lingerie line with 9 shades of nude- a nude shade for EVERY woman on earth.In this episode we talk about:[1:44] First time she remembers feeling sexy[6:18] How the idea for Naked Rebellion was born[9:39] How working on Dancing With the Stars gave her the missing puzzle piece to producing lingerie [14:54] How she learned to pivot and contribute to the healthcare community in 2020[24:15] Being mindful in choosing the women who represent the brand and having inclusive messaging[27:47] SEXY[37:49] What sexy means to her now[38:24] How your clothing plays a role in feeling sexy[44:18] Where to follow Jessica and Naked RebellionCONNECT WITH JESSICA WENGER MCPHAUL & NAKED REBELLIONwww.jessicawenger.comInstagram: @jesswengermcpwww.nakedrebellion.comInstagram: @naked.rebellion                      CONNECT WITH KELCY AND FIND YOUR SEXY:www.findyoursexy.coInstagram: @kelcyvalletta
