Book Hero thinking about your next read

When Olivia Molly Rogers was crowned Miss Universe Australia, she knew exactly what she wanted to shine a light on: her struggles with disordered eating and anxiety.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

While many of her Instagram followers are eager for her fashion, art, and insanely cute dog content, the heart of Olivia's audience is there for her refreshingly honest voice on body positivity and mental health.

In Find Your Light, Olivia reveals more of her story – from growing up as a shy child using food as comfort, to the pressures of modelling life, to finally finding the confidence, courage, and self-belief to compete on the world stage. Olivia also shares the helpful mantras, tips, and tools she's used to heal, have a healthy relationship with food, and embrace her body.

This is a book for anyone who wants to practise self-love, feel more confident inside and out, and overcome the challenges that can hold us all back from finding our light.

About the Author

Olivia Molly Rogers was crowned Miss Universe Australia in 2017 - and quickly won millions of hearts with her infectious smile, kindness, charm and professional attitude.

Born in South Australia, Olivia has worked as a model and speech pathologist. Since her time as Miss Universe Australia, Olivia's profile has continued to grow, headlining national campaigns for the likes of Priceline Australia, Victoria Racing Club, and Diamond Exchange. She has also worked closely with nationally recognised brands, including Honda Australia, Essie, Sportsgirl, Bioderma, Bunnings, La Roche Posay, Seed Heritage, Bailey Nelson, Chadstone, City of Melbourne, Uniqlo and TOAST Society, and secured numerous hosting jobs for organisations such as David Jones, Intimina, Keep It Cleaner, SA Racing, Liptember and UN Women's Rights.


During her time as Miss Universe Australia, Olivia opened up about her experiences with anxiety, depression and eating disorders. Four years on, Olivia continues to use her platform to facilitate discussions about mental-health issues with the hope that it will help to reduce stigma and encourage other young Australians to speak up and seek support.
