The Real Beauty Is Truth

ChastityPurityModesty You would think these would be things that every young woman would aspire to. Yet as we know, in todays world, young women often use the messages they receive from the media and their peers to determine how they are going to model their lives.

It is during times exactly like these that they need someone they can relate to, someone whos walked in their shoes to show them theres another way.

Fortunately for young women today, one young woman found her way through all the lies the media told her about what a woman should be – and took the great models of womanhoodthe saints in heavento heart. And shes here to share her story.

In her DVD, From Top Model to Role Model, fashion model and Catholic revert Leah Darrow offers her own story of sin and redemption as a case study in how damaging the current culture can be to women.

Launching her career as a cast member of the TV reality show Americas Next Top Model, Leah plunged headfirst into the modeling business. She can give you a behind the scenes look at the high-pressure world of high fashion in a way only someone who has been there can.

Today, recovering from that ordeal and having returned to the Catholic Church of her childhood, Leah speaks to young people, in particular young women, about the importance of maintaining their dignity and their relationship with God.

Using humor and heartfelt stories from her own life, Leah shares with young people the facts about:

the false promises of Hollywood, high fashion, and celebrity culture,
how modesty, purity, and true love are connected,
why its important to define your worth not by the worlds standards, but by Gods,
the role that parents play as (sometimes) secret allies,
how a persons outward image reflects the interior state, and how prayer affects both,
why offering virginity outside of marriage as a sign of true love is a mistake,
why celebrating womanhood through fashion makes no sense, and why immodesty cheapens womanhood.
From Americas Next Top Model to Catholic speaker, Leah Darrows journey in faith has been a battle at times. Even in the years prior to her reality-TV fame, her Catholic faith took a backseat role. That all changed during one special photo shoot in which God allowed her to see her soul in its current state. This extraordinary and supernatural grace gave her the courage to change every aspect of her life: her friends, her beliefs, her clothes, and her opinion of the world and herself. Approx. 60 minutes.
