Dear Readers,This issue is a celebration of truth-tellers, boundary-breakers, and those daring enough to redefine the spaces they inhabit. At a time when perfection is curated and vulnerability is often filtered out, we are proud to present stories that go deeper%u2014stories that reveal what strength, beauty, and leadership really look like when stripped of performance.Our cover star, Nicole Pedra, embodies this spirit with radical honesty and grace. A model, actress, and advocate for those living with chronic illness, Nicole challenges the outdated narratives that still dominate fashion and wellness. Her life with MS is not a side note%u2014it%u2019s the lens through which she%u2019s building a more inclusive and honest industry. Her story reminds us that visibility is power, and that sometimes the most beautiful thing you can be is real.You%u2019ll also meet Sofia Yepes, a multi-hyphenate creator whose work across film, theater, and podcasting puts the spotlight on underrepresented voices. Her bold storytelling and fierce advocacy for Latina and Indigenous narratives are shaping the next era of entertainment%u2014one rooted in authenticity and equity.Then there%u2019s Chris %u201cBulldog%u201d Collins, whose latest book I Am Leader isn%u2019t just about business%u2014it%u2019s about inner work, creative risk, and confronting our deepest assumptions about what leadership really means. Through his art, writing, and think tank Syndicate X, he%u2019s giving new language to the leadership conversation%u2014one that%u2019s less about titles, and more about truth.Photographers like Jaime Lim and Leonardo Curatella round out this issue with work that transforms fashion photography into something far more profound. Their lenses don%u2019t just capture style%u2014they capture story, soul, and the subtle, electric moments that turn image into art.Each of these features shares a common thread: a refusal to play small. Whether it%u2019s through advocacy, image-making, or innovation, our subjects are carving space for truth in places that have long preferred silence.As always, we hope these pages inspire you%u2014not to emulate, but to express. Not to perfect, but to participate. This is your invitation to redefine what beauty, success, and leadership mean to you.Enjoy this issue!Warm regards,MOST TeamMOSTMAG.COM (DIGITAL)WWW.MAGCLOUD.COM/USER/MOSTMAGAZINE (PRINT)INSTAGRAM.COM/MOSTMAGAZINEFACEBOOK.COM/MOSTMAGAZINETWITTER.COM/MOSTMAGAZINEPINTEREST.COM/MOSTMAGAZINE MOSTMAG.TUMBLR.COMISSUU.COM/FASHIONMOSTMAGAZINEMOST MAGAZINE - ISSUE 8009
