“I think my mom has always been such a model of working on feeling good from the inside because I think there are people who are so exquisitely beautiful from the outside, who still feel so insecure and are in so much pain,” she tells PEOPLE. “So I think she fostered in all of us a real desire to just feel beautiful, feel sexy, feel embodied.”

For Willis, this has relevance to her own life growing up in the spotlight with parents Moore, 61, and dadBruce Willis.

“Of course, it’s a fishbowl with a lot of cameras," she adds, before stating that she has had to contend with “cameras throughout many awkward phases of life.”
