Ep. 283: From Facing 65 Years to Life To CEO of Glamazon Beauty - Kim Baker’s Breakthrough
Description
Today marks Kim Baker’s third visit to the show—because her story is one of resilience, reinvention, and transformation. From facing a chilling sentence of 65 years to life, Kim emerged to become a pioneering plus-size model with Wilhelmina, working alongside icons like Kevyn Aucoin and Way Bandy.
She went on to launch Glamazon Beauty, a brand that celebrates inclusive beauty. Now, her story is moving in front of the camera: she’s developing a major film about her journey—one that’s just as inspiring, hard-hitting, and cinematic as her life itself.
