Taryn Brumfitt rose to fame after posting a before and after photo with a difference that went viral and triggered a global movement. Taryn used her platform to educate and inform the world about self-love and body positivity. She was recently named Australian of the Year and has sparked a national conversation about body image. Although some of the commentary surrounding her award would suggest there's still some confusion about the serious nature of these issues, particularly from a few middle-aged men in the media.
