Steph Claire Smith isn’t your average model turned fitness influencer. 
Boasting over one million followers on social media, the 27-year-old uses her platform to champion how healthy doesn't need to be hard, which inspired the business empire she co-founded with her best friend Laura Henshaw, Keep It Cleaner.

 

She's also navigating becoming a new mum through the pandemic, showing the raw and realistic sides of the journey with her followers as she embraces imperfections and celebrates flaws. 

 

Jamila Rizvi sits down with Steph to talk about her business ventures, motherhood, the trappings of the modelling and fitness industries and the pressures they put on young women.
