ABOUT OUR PROGRAM
Magali and Claire first met when Claire was the director of the American Anorexia Bulimia Association and Magali was a top model who was ready to talk about her personal experience with bulimia. Their collaboration resulted in a unique outreach program, which they continue to bring to high schools, colleges and conferences nationwide. Combining personal stories with real examples of photo retouching, this innovative presentation has encouraged audiences to look critically at our culture’s messages about beauty. They are also the creators of 5 Resolutions, a popular blog aimed at promoting healthy beauty.
Magali Amadei has appeared on the pages and covers of virtually every fashion magazine in the world, including Vogue, Glamour, Cosmopolitan, Elle, and Harper’s Bazaar. As a result of her own battle with and victory over bulimia, Magali became the world’s first top female model to step forward and tell her story on behalf of an eating disorders organization.
