Beauty of the Month - Heidi Clements

October 2025

How did you discover Beyond Beauty Project?

You discovered me.

How did you break out of the box of perfectionism?

I broke out of the box that the only acceptable life for a woman is married with children. I didn't plan on being single and childfree at 64 but I've never looked back with any kind of sorrow. My life is beautiful because I choose me every day - something we are taught is selfish.

What advice would you give your younger self about the pressure to be perfect? 

I would give my younger self advice to quit drinking much sooner and figure out why I was trying to drown out my problems.

How has your perception of beauty and success changed over the years?

My perception of beauty and success changed the minute I realized that how I felt on the inside affected how I look on the outside. Happiness is natures plastic surgeon.

What helps you live authentically?

Being honest about who I am.

How do you practice self-love?

I choose not to let other people define me and instead understand how beautiful it is to be a perfectly imperfect me.

What are ways you honor your body?

Walking, exercising, bike riding.
