From growing up a wealthy ballerina to living in a van without a shower, Mary shares the wisdom she’s learned from both sides of the coin. She is transparent about body image issues and how she freed herself from physical limitations. Through distilling her life to the essentials, she discovered where she finds her worth, how she can authentically  express herself, and created a community that reminds her why she’s beautiful.
