Maggie Rawlins on Knowing Herself and Sharing Wisdom

Maggie Rawlins made her Sports Illustrated Swimsuit debut in 2021 when she was photographed in Hollywood, FL by James Macari. A registered nurse-turned-fashion model from South Carolina, Rawlins appeared in the pages of Love Magazine and on the cover of Elle Croatia before the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

During the pandemic, she volunteered in New York City hospitals and as a OneWorld Health Ambassador, bringing affordable, high-quality healthcare to underserved communities.

Rawlins is a strong advocate for self-love and preaching kindness. She told Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, "I just want to be able to speak a positive light to younger generations. I think of my niece and growing up in a social media world where women are looked at in negative lights and talked about in a negative way, and every part of their body is scrutinized, when it just should be celebrated."

Take a look back at eight of her most breathtaking images from the neon-filled photo shoot.
