1
Oh, the mug has the little apple.
2
I love that.
3
It's all details here now, you see.
4
Very sweet.
5
I know.
6
After 10 years, we finally got ourselves into shape.
7
It's about time.
8
Very apple.
9
Any and every opportunity to see you, to say hello to you, to find out how your spirit is.
10
I'm so glad that all of the above is happening in real time.
11
How are you?
12
Thank you.
13
I feel the same way.
14
As I was walking in, I was thinking I'd talk to you definitely more than some of my family members.
15
In the sweetest way, just because you have been so wonderful and you've seen me through a lot.
16
And it's been wonderful to see all of this happen for you.
17
Thank you.
18
I'm just, yeah, I'm in a really good place and I'm excited about what's happening.
19
We're going to talk about that.
20
And I just want to get this out of the way because it deserves to be honored and acknowledged.
21
Congratulations on finding, you know, happiness with someone in your life.
22
You get to share your experiences with.
23
And I'm sure that it was a wonderful occasion, but doesn't it just get better in the days that follow,
24
in the months and the years that will follow?
25
I definitely can agree to that.
26
It has been such a dream so far.
27
And I know it'll come with ebbs and flows, but it's the most beautiful person that I could do that with.
28
Yeah.
29
Congratulations to both of you.
30
I feel like when we first started speaking, you'd lived so much life already.
31
And so it was actually pretty natural, I think, for the two of us who are curious about what goes on behind the music
32
and is going on in the spirit of the human being to fall into a deeper place pretty quick.
33
That being said, you have honored that work with increasing dedication in the years that have followed.
34
I think about the last 10 years even
35
And all the changes that went on When you put out
36
Revival And the anniversary that's upon you
37
And how much you've done for others
38
Not just for yourself in that time I guess my question, Selena Is that when anniversaries come back around
39
Do you allow yourself the grace
40
To be able to acknowledge how far you've traveled?
41
Definitely It doesn't mean that it's easy to Because sometimes
42
You can get stuck in a place and I'm just finally happy to say that I don't feel stuck.
43
It feels so beautiful and it feels wonderful
44
and I think that's what I want to be now is everything
45
and more of what I've been given in the past three years have been such a blessing.
46
Does that change the way that you go about doing your work around
47
Rare Impact Fund, helping others, non -profit organizations to increase awareness around mental health,
48
when you're able to take a step back and have done the work, have better tools to help yourself,
49
does it alter the way that you approach the work for others than it did
50
when you were in it learning and contributing at the same time?
51
I think when you have experienced something that another person has maybe felt in a different way,
52
there's naturally this connection that you're able to connect with someone on a level of maybe it's trauma or,
53
you know, codependency or whatever it feels like you, you can walk through that with someone, but it's never good to lean on someone.
54
So it's always important to find, you know, the point of all of this, which is I'm grateful rare exists,
55
you know, rare beauty has changed my life and I'm so grateful.
56
But before we sold a single product, we made a promise that 1 % of sales will go directly to the Rare Impact Fund,
57
which our goal is to raise $100 million in 10 years for mental health for youth all over the world.
58
So we're already global, and we reach over 2 million people, and we have already seen the groundwork.
59
We've seen what's been going on, and to know that behind every product that's going on is the biggest gift.
60
Yeah, it's interesting, you know, the idea of Rare being helping people to discover, you know, to enhance their own external beauty,
61
but also using it to contribute to that really important part of the equation, which is how do I feel about myself on the inside?
62
Right.
63
I think that was the whole reason
64
Rare Beauty was created because I'm not gonna lie, I'm not sure I was really sure what would happen to me in the beauty space.
65
I'm very comfortable in my lane with music and film and TV.
66
But I thought it would be interesting to give it a go as someone who has never had real experience.
67
I'm not that great.
68
You know, I made people do this.
69
So I feel like it's more so relatable.
70
I wanted people to feel like they were able to tangibly do something because I'm not skilled in it.
71
And then at the same time, you know, even our products have designs that are uniquely for people who have dexterity issues like myself.
72
So arthritis or any sort of, you know, immune system, it kind of all helps.
73
It's all a part of it.
74
It's a brilliant balance between the aspiration of something like that, but also the acknowledgement that, you know, everybody's experience is going to be different.
75
You talked about relatability.
76
I think that comes from people recognizing that you've always been very unfailingly honest at where you are in your life.
77
And I haven't had a chance to talk to you about
78
what it is for people to look up to you even
79
when you can't really look at yourself at that moment in time.
80
And being happy now on some of those times when you were trying to establish a relationship with people and inspire people,
81
but perhaps you weren't feeling particularly inspired yourself.
82
In a way, yeah.
83
That's why they say giving back actually in a way fulfills a need in you.
84
I think when I was younger, the idea of being someone someone looked up to, it was way too much pressure.
85
And now I just want to feel like I'm not someone to necessarily always look up to.
86
It's more that I just have a mission.
87
I have a purpose and behind everything that I do,
88
there's always going to be a purpose from the projects I choose to the music I release.
89
There's always a reason.
90
There's always a meaning for me.
91
At that moment in time.
92
Yes.
93
Yeah.
94
That's exactly where I can, what I can offer is where I'm at, who I am in that moment,
95
whether that's complicated or not, I've always been honest.
96
What's your relationship like with an album like
97
Revival, taking that honesty into account?
98
because like we said 10 years on what a beautiful life you have laid out for yourself now to enjoy
99
and to benefit from all that work
100
but there was you'd reached a crossroads from what i can
101
remember back in 2015 where you were leaving some stuff behind and making some new choices yeah
102
man it was fun i just remember feeling so liberated and however that that looked from good for you to
103
all of these other, you know, same old love, it felt like I had a whole new rebirth.
104
Yeah.
105
And I just look at that time fondly and I'm so happy to celebrate it.
106
What about like reflection in general though?
107
You've got so much to look forward to when someone tells you, hey, it's been 10 years since you put an album out.
108
You're just like, whoa, that's not on my bingo card right now.
109
I'm like, wait, why?
110
Wait, what?
111
How did this happen?
112
It's like, don't remind me of that.
113
What are you talking about? that makes me feel weird but
114
when you think about your music and what and
115
and you know do you do you leave it behind
116
when you've finished have you received what you need to get out of it
117
and you leave it to other people to enjoy
118
or do you like to reflect on your music after
119
it's put out yeah no I think I just say it
120
and leave it move on yeah I don't know
121
I don't really think too into a certain song being anything other than what it was to me
122
and I love how people have interpreted my music
123
and what it stands for i'm very proud of that
124
but i'm i'm also just i don't know i'm just equally as proud to do what i do every day
125
and it frees you up to enjoy music as a fan i hope
126
so you know and so let's talk a little bit about what
127
that experience is a few years back i had a pretty
128
sort of mind -blowing experience where something
129
i'd never really given my time to a sort of form
130
of modern ambient music presented itself to me yeah just showed up out of nowhere
131
and changed a lot of things for me.
132
I believe that.
133
Really did.
134
Like it put me on a path to starting a chill station here
135
and change the way I make music and listen to music.
136
And even how I heard heavy music,
137
all of a sudden I could hear the ambience in it and it just opened up a whole side of me.
138
So I'd love to know sort of how music shows up for you just in your life
139
and how you choose to use it and not just to have a good time, but I mean, is it a tool in other ways?
140
Is it a friend in other ways?
141
I think music is, is, it's just the language that you want to feel and speak.
142
Sometimes I'll listen to, I'm, I'm, everyone's different, right?
143
When you listen to a song, what do you listen to first?
144
I'm a lyrics girl.
145
So I always am enticed by the cleverness, by the sadness, by the, um, hidden meanings behind anything.
146
And that, that's thrilling because then I take it in as my version
147
and i just those are the songs i remember the most and they're usually associated with
148
some probably painful times but those are the best moments sometimes
149
when you want to cry that's why people say just put on you know for me yeah what's one of yours joji
150
Glimpse of Us, Joji, that one kills me every time.
151
I need a good cry.
152
Yeah.
153
I have playlists.
154
Oh, me too.
155
To cry to?
156
Yes.
157
Like one of them is called Not Gonna Lie, This Shit Is Really Sad.
158
That's what the name of my place is.
159
I'd actually be intrigued to listen to that, though.
160
Super honest, though.
161
I think mine just says sad.
162
That's it.
163
Happy.
164
Just super do it.
165
Only link positive.
166
I actually have a folder called Positive Music so if I want to only hear things that I can digest.
167
So back to your point, music plays a huge part into what happens, I think, mentally.
168
I was actually talking about it before we came in.
169
Not sure if this is true, so I might be totally making this up right now.
170
But there was a study about how they used three mice and they separated them and they had mazes, each of them.
171
And in one, they played a certain type of music and another they played death metal type of really fun,
172
but headbanging music, and then they did classical music.
173
It affected each of the mice differently
174
and how they went through the paths
175
and how they went through the mazes to get to their end point and all of them were different.
176
I don't know if that's true guys.
177
Well, all I know is there is something neurologically that you feel, it's visceral.
178
100%.
179
I see it with my mother who has advanced dementia.
180
We can't communicate conventionally anymore.
181
There's just no conversations.
182
Thanks, Lena.
183
And it's happening a lot with a lot of people I know.
184
So I only bring this up
185
because I think it could help people who were in a
186
similar situation to me where you sort of feel like you're lying to the person that knows you the best.
187
And when you're not able to communicate conventionally with someone who really knew when you were lying,
188
even as a kid, you feel like the biggest fraud of all time.
189
And so the only way I could truly communicate with her was I would play music
190
that she could relate to And boom, she'd be in the room
191
Right there Oh, that gave me chills
192
And, you know, I get an I love you back when music is playing
193
And so it's really
194
It's taught me a lot about the power of music and frequency
195
And the notes and the truth that comes out of that
196
And you feel that more than anyone when you make music
197
Oh, definitely Even
198
when I'm you know able to perform it live I feel it viscerally I feel the passion behind every word I say
199
Every beat every moment I can hit
200
It just makes it more satisfying because it comes from a place of honesty.
201
I Had no idea that that's really I'm really sorry
202
But it's really beautiful that you were able to find that and it is true
203
That is communicating there were studies being done to to look into that I believe it
204
Do you miss the cadence of performing live?
205
I got to ask it.
206
I know.
207
I just, I think the only thing I genuinely miss is probably the interaction.
208
I don't know about ever performing and I'm not going to say I would never again because who knows.
209
And I'm always saying I'll never and then I'm back.
210
So I'm fully aware of my tendencies.
211
Of all of ours.
212
Of all of our tendencies.
213
But I do feel the connection is so strong
214
when I'm on stage and I can actually feel the power of what my music stands for.
215
And I don't know about award shows or any sort of shows.
216
That's always very too vulnerable.
217
It's also just not everyone's there to support what you're doing.
218
There's a different feeling when you're on stage.
219
It's very performative.
220
It is.
221
And sometimes I'm not good at that.
222
I can I can act ish, but I'm also like not good at faking when I'm on stage that I'm you know,
223
I think I did one performance where I thought I looked like a pop star.
224
And I remember thinking, actually, all of that looks so awkward because it couldn't have been the opposite of, you know, who I am.
225
But it is it's performative.
226
And I'm not sure that's something
227
I'm willing to entertain again however the idea of doing I don't know an acoustic set
228
or some sort of soft version I would love to do
229
that I miss being with fans for sure I feel like you've been whether you realize it
230
or not I've been working really hard throughout a lot of your young adult
231
and adult life to shed that skin of being quote -unquote a pop star
232
or being something
233
that can put on the costume yeah i think i just maybe got a little tired of
234
that and i think what i get so much out of film
235
and tv or any sort of performative creativity that isn't music is actually really
236
It is another feeling that I can't really explain other than I connect with a character.
237
I connect with the character's pain or I connect with the character's joy or relationships and with, you know, mother or fathers.
238
And all of that's so interesting to me and I can dive into somebody else's world.
239
But when you put yourself out there and it's just you, it can be a bit more frightening.
240
And I think I was just a little tired of it.
241
We saw it in the documentary.
242
Totally.
243
The beginning of the documentary is really hard to watch.
244
I think the way you were describing it before about whether it's being in character
245
or being in an environment where it's you and just the songs, isn't it a form of getting lost?
246
Yeah.
247
Like in a healthy way that we're searching for? Of course.
248
I think that's the beauty of music too and film and TV at that is the escapism.
249
being able to drown in whatever feeling or whatever emotion entices,
250
you know, your brain in that moment.
251
It is very, it's interesting what it can feel like.
252
That's the closest thing to being present, I think.
253
I agree.
254
That's why I do this.
255
You're paying attention.
256
Yeah, that's why I do this.
257
No, I know, and you're very good at it.
258
Honestly, I don't need my therapy session later today.
259
But you know what I mean?
260
I mean, like I can only focus on what we're doing right now.
261
I'm only enthralled in this experience right now.
262
And so whatever's happening around is...
263
That's the best thing in the world.
264
And that's something I think I have to practice every day.
265
And it is a practice.
266
It is.
267
It's a real practice.
268
I'm very interested in, you know,
269
Rare Impact because I think that the conversation again in the last decade of what it is to be particularly young,
270
and experience mental health challenges, that there is a conversation that can be had now, which is kind of broad.
271
You can find people to have specific one -on -one conversations, but there's also macro help.
272
Yeah, of course.
273
Big funds, like you're involved with coming in and saying, we hear you, we understand it's really important.
274
When you think about purpose, even through all the challenges you've been through, can you sort of ladder it up to a greater purpose
275
that ultimately your generation and who you were as a young artist, everything you went through.
276
Is this your purpose in a strange way?
277
A thousand percent.
278
Just because I love being able to look at someone and say, I know, and not exactly your way, but I do know that feeling.
279
And it's really difficult.
280
One story that will forever be in my mind to the day I die was this young boy.
281
He was eight years old and he was in the hospital.
282
He had lupus and he was waiting to get, um, diagnosed and also for a transplant.
283
I had experienced both.
284
And when I walked into the room, he kept looking down and he was very nervous.
285
So I, I kept asking the mother, is it okay that I'm here?
286
Should I maybe just step out?
287
And, and they insisted that he, he'd like me to stay.
288
So I just kind of talked about the surroundings and tried to make him feel comfortable and, you know, didn't get in his space.
289
And all of a sudden, as I'm rambling on about the drawings on the wall, he, he just looks down and says,
290
is it true that you have lupus too?
291
And I looked at him and I said, yes.
292
And it was the first time that he looked up and he finally acknowledged me.
293
And I remember thinking that's really powerful.
294
That's really, that's something I register in my mind as that's why I went through it.
295
So I don't look back and feel, oh, how miserable and I can't believe I had to go through that.
296
I look back and say, all right, now how can I be there for someone else?
297
now what's going to happen to someone who feels the same way
298
and I don't think my life's any easier than it was
299
I just have a better understanding of where I'm trying to regulate my emotions
300
and what I need
301
so my mission is is simply based on history my life um
302
I'm grateful not at all sad my life wasn't easy
303
but it same as anyone it could be worse it could be better
304
I think everybody has their own life and their own experiences
305
but it should all be acknowledged for what it is to each individual
306
and I hope that's what I can do while I'm here on this earth
307
I'll try to do the things that make me happy but I'll equally try to do the things that
308
make me feel like I'm, I have a right to be here in a way.
309
You talk about it in the new song.
310
There's a brilliant line in the new song that reveals itself.
311
I think you know the one I'm talking about, like when you're low, I feel low.
312
And you could listen to that and you could feel like, oh, that's a personal statement towards someone you care about.
313
And it can be.
314
But I feel like it's more like what we're searching for
315
and what we're missing as people is this idea that it's all transferable.
316
And when you feel pain, how could I not feel pain?
317
I agree.
318
And I think that's something I really admire about the song.
319
Now, to go back on it, it was a song that was from a long time ago,
320
but it's become this gem that we've always kind of carried as eventually it'll have a home and then it did.
321
But yeah, that's what the ultimate meaning of that song is, is that you are exactly any sort of thing that you are walking through,
322
good or bad, I'm equally there.
323
And no, it's not about anything or any relationship.
324
It can be interpretive, but I genuinely think it is just a beautifully written song.
325
I agree.
326
And I had a great time, you know, working with everybody on it.
327
I love that you could have had that
328
and it meant something to you that was different in a way than how it feels now.
329
Like what is time really in relation to songs?
330
I don't know, but hopefully it just ages like fine wine.
331
Music is just the best.
332
You've had such a fascinating life today, and it's so wonderful hearing music come from you,
333
and it's a blessing to be able to talk to you intermittently about life and things like that.
334
And I don't want this to be too lofty a question, but in doing
335
Rare Impact Fund and in caring about the greater, and not just the individual, what do you what is one thing that you have
336
or are learning about the human experience
337
that you feel is a is a is a through line for all of us
338
that's something like rare impact fund is trying to highlight the lack of connection
339
I think I'm guilty I'm sure we all are of the fact
340
that our life is definitely you know ran by things that you social media and stuff all of that's given.
341
I don't need to talk about it.
342
But the lack of connection is real.
343
So yeah, of course, take your breaks from Instagram or whatever platform you're on.
344
But at the end of the day, these things are unavoidable.
345
And you either have to figure out how to live with it,
346
or just what I do sometimes just choose not to live with it for a while. But I miss it.
347
I find when I take a break I'm able to actually miss
348
and know and be curious about my friends and the world
349
and life you know I knew the important things happening it was just more
350
so how do I how do I find any more information
351
or what my friend was doing last week I think it's great to be able to find
352
that as a surprise and not just say oh I saw
353
that and just heart the thing you know I don't know it does
354
that makes sense it makes total sense
355
and it's interesting i was talking to your friend taylor about
356
the lyric in her new album where she talks about the era of careful discretion oh love
357
that that was when i began careful discretion
358
and i talked about how it feels like she's living a life less attached to careful discretion
359
and living a human life regardless of how people perceive
360
or read or comment or gossip that she's actively moving forward with her life and not being beholden to that.
361
Does that make sense?
362
Facts.
363
One of the things I love about it is
364
that I feel like we are now getting to see you enjoy being you
365
and not have to shield that because of fear.
366
That's accurate.
367
Oh, I'm still terrified every day of my life, but it's gotten a bit easier
368
when I just kind of let it go a bit you know i was working today this morning
369
and i was doing interviews with steve and martin short um
370
and i just they asked me one of the biggest lessons i could take away
371
and and i said it's honestly not to take yourself too seriously
372
but also don't give up on a joke until it doesn't land
373
because they will keep it going until it's so bad
374
that it's funny it is a gift they have
375
and that's something I cherish that's something
376
I feel deep down inside of how I look at life
377
now it must have been wonderful to have worked with them
378
and know that at
379
that point in their life as they've lived getting close to living a beautiful full life
380
that you can see like okay both of you have been exceptionally famous
381
and yet they just seem to move with the dance through it.
382
I'm telling you you would have the best time with them.
383
They are just a They're just the best people and I'm so lucky.
384
But I'm getting off track, sorry.
385
No, no, I don't even know what track we're on.
386
I just get any excuse to talk about Steve and Marty.
387
Yeah, to me it's all one big track, which is that, you know, it's the life you've built for yourself.
388
At the point of doing this interview as we near the end of this conversation, all too brief but beautiful nonetheless,
389
the gala is ahead of us.
390
You know, Jimmy Kimmel hosting it, the Marias performing at it, which is really cool because I love that band.
391
And just nice for you to be able to acknowledge even just in a single moment all the work
392
that happens left and right of that.
393
So every year, well, it's only been three years so far.
394
We're still pretty new.
395
We've thrown a gala.
396
And it's very traditional.
397
We have things to auction for hopefully people to come and donate.
398
And all the funds will go to the Rare Impact Fund.
399
It's grown every year.
400
But yeah, to have to have had
401
Jimmy Kimmel, the Marias, everyone who's involved is nothing but elevation from where we've been.
402
And I couldn't be more grateful because every year gets better and better.
403
And it wouldn't be possible unless I felt like we were doing
404
that work and I know and feel and can identify with
405
so many people and it's probably one of my favorite parts of the entire creation of my cosmetics brand.
406
Well, you know, ultimate respect to you for not just focusing on building a strong and powerful self -owned business,
407
which in itself is an incredible achievement, but to take the time to be able to share the rewards in an environment,
408
in an area, which again, I feel like we bonded on this at the start.
409
There was something to where we landed very quickly, which was it's bigger than just music.
410
Like if you'll allow me, let me try to, this is back in the day,
411
let me try to figure out a pathway for us to talk about the deeper stuff.
412
And you were unafraid back then, I feel like you still are.
413
Yeah, if anything, I'm carrying less and less in a good way.
414
That's good.
415
Thank you.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
