Kate Lindsay and Candice Lim are joined by Ingrid Nilsen , an OG beauty lifestyle YouTuber who you may know as “MissGlamorazzi,” to reflect on the 10-year anniversary of her most iconic video to date. Throughout the 2010s, YouTube was the platform of choice for “coming out” videos. During those years, the U.S. saw progress in LGBTQ+ acceptance and representation, including a SCOTUS decision legalizing gay marriage nationwide in 2015. A part of this growing acceptance online included prominent creators speaking up about their own sexuality, creating essentially, an entire genre of YouTube videos. Entering that genre in 2015 was Nilsen, whose coming out video has more than 18 million views, and became perhaps the most memorable coming out video from that era. Ten years later, Nilsen joins the show to talk about the moment before she hit upload, what she’s been up to since, and how the reaction — and backlash — to that video affected her coming out journey.

This week's episode with the delightful Ingrid Nilsen is all about embracing discomfort, sitting with pain, and finding the beauty in it all. Ingrid shares the challenges she's faced on her path and talks about a moment laying on the kitchen floor where she realized staying the same was scarier than making a change. It's a conversation about showing up as REAL, being who you are and claiming your story authentically. It requires slowing down to be with yourself, finding meaningful connections, and cultivating all parts of yourself. More from Ingrid on the 'gram @ingridnilsen and her podcast, One Step.

Ingrid Nilsen a New York City creative and an online video personality with over 8 million followers across her social media channels who's spent ten years pioneering an industry that has changed the way media and advertising is consumed. Ingrid uses her platform to challenge the beauty and wellness industry through informative content and interviews with some of the world's most influential people, including President Barack Obama and Bill Gates. Her CoverGirl ambassadorship was the first brand partnership of its kind between a traditional beauty brand and an online personality and she's gone on to do many partnerships with global brands like Amazon, Unilever and now Fresh. Ingrid was awarded the Digital Innovator Award by The Trevor Project, a Streamy Beauty Channel Award, was selected for Oprah's Super Soul One Hundred, and also named a UN Change Ambassador for gender equality. In her spare time, Ingrid hangs out in Brooklyn with her dog Tayto, watches French TV shows, and eats a lot of chocolate chip cookies. In this episode, we really get into Ingrid’s story and talk a lot about grief, which is a huge part of her story. She really lets us know that a lot of the beauty that has come into her life has been through dealing with tremendous loss and a lot of challenges that she has been so vulnerable about throughout the years.

Welcome to One Step, a podcast about the arc of change and transformation hosted by YouTube personality Ingrid Nilsen. This is what you can expect from the show.

In this episode, I interview Ingrid Nilsen and cover a wide range of topics including her journey with YouTube, her relationship with makeup and acne, to exploring her sexuality and coming out online. We talk about the small but growing trend in media and advertising away from Photoshop and using only one body type, and the excitement and importance of this shift. An area she has recently become very interested in is body hair and I loved exploring this topic with her. I find it mind-boggling that we (myself included) have been trained to find this naturally occurring part of our humanity as gross and unfeminine. Other topics we cover: Female Periods Perfectionism Curiosity and Judgement I think you will love it! Find Ingrid: Instagram YouTube Find Cara: Instagram Website
