Whilst modelling as a teenager, Sophie Hughes was also working on her degree in psychology, focussing on resilience, positive psychology, and wellbeing. After graduating, she moved to Australia and began working for some of the world’s biggest brands. But something would soon call her home.

She found out that her 6-month-old nephew desperately needed a liver transplant. Sophie found out she was a match and flew straight back to the UK to have the gruelling eight hour operation. Whilst the surgery was a success, it left her with a seven-inch scar across her stomach, and she was in recovery for another three months. During this time she jumped four dress sizes, and she knew this change would make her modelling career all the more difficult.

But the scar would actually be the catalyst for her new career. She became determined to help others with their confidence, and to promote the importance of mid-size representation in the industry.
