S2 E11 Sandra Laurens: Model in Paris – Alaïa, Size Zero Pressure & the Reality Behind the Glamour

From Vienna to Paris – and suddenly in the midst of the world of Cartier, Alaïa and haute couture. Sandra Laurens was personally scouted by Azzedine Alaïa, has worked for international brands and knows the modelling life between castings, catwalks and content creation. In conversation with Marco, she talks about how she found her place in an industry that thrives on beauty, pressure and discipline – and why the price of success often remains invisible.

We talk about body image, eating disorders and mental health, about self-promotion, ambition and boundaries. Sandra also reveals that she is now starting a new chapter: as an actress – just one week before shooting her first film. A conversation about change, courage and the art of staying true to yourself in Paris when everything screams for perfection.
