Dame Clarissa Burt

Clarissa Burt is a woman who has lived many lives — from international runway and screens to the quiet, brutal work of rebuilding herself from the inside out. Raised in a strict Irish Catholic family, she left home at eighteen, survived abuse, found refuge in self-help, and eventually wrote the book she once needed herself. Clarissa is the author of The Self-Esteem Regime and the founder of In the Limelight Media. Today, her work is less about polish and more about steadiness, self-respect, and learning how to receive the life you’ve fought for.
