What would you say for you as being one of your like proudest moments

or greatest achievements or something that you really feel like?

And internally, I mean, for the basis of our conversation,

like something that really brings you joy internally when you think about it or when you had it.

Like I said, I look back and the things that I've accomplished,

just even my job.

Like I think I really at one point

when I was younger decided I want to be a model and this is what I want to do.

And the fact that I executed,

because we talk about that determination,

I was 14 years old when I kind of made that decision and was like,

this is what I want to do.

And I went to my mom and I was like,

please help me do this.

And I didn't stop until I was 24,

that I was like, okay,

I think I need to take it back a notch,

which we can also get into,

because that's a very dramatic story.

But I just knew, and I think I'm proud of myself

for being that kid and being determined to do that

and then executing and doing it to the level that I had done it and that I guess I still do.

But I also am proud of,

I think, more so the self work that I've done within that process.

Because there was a long period of time,

I'd say the core five years of it,

that I was extremely overworked,

not my happiest, not because I wasn't doing what I loved,

but just because I was overwhelmed and I was,

I felt like I was saying yes to everything because I felt really,

really grateful and really honored to be in the position that I was in.

So I was always saying yes.

And it just took a lot out of me to the point where I just wasn't happy anymore.

And so I had to set those boundaries for myself when I was about 23,

24, I'd say like what,

a year before the pandemic.

So yeah, I was probably 23.

I really set boundaries for myself and I was like,

I want to continue to do this because this is what I love.

But I need to start saying no when I can and prioritizing me and prioritizing like,

you know, my happiness and my well-being.

And it has done wonders for me.

Like, I feel like I can show up better for myself

and I can show up a better person for the people that get to be around me that day.

And, you know, that I work with on that day. So, yeah.

That's what I'm proud of.

Sorry to give you a long answer to your question.

That's amazing.

I won't say I was hoping for that because I'm always open to wherever anyone's life experience goes,

but there's a part of me that loves hearing that.

I really appreciate hearing that because when you've achieved so many incredible things in your career,

which you have, to then say,

well, this is the part,

knowing how to navigate it or making the right choices at the right time.

Healthy balance.

The healthy balance.

It's so important.

It's important for all of us.

yeah like we have to this is what we're prioritizing you know yeah

so how did you find the courage to do

that at the 23 mark as you're saying you're in a

competitive industry as you said it was overworking it's fast paced i'm guessing there's comparison in

that industry there's competition in

that industry it's not an easy space to be you're of

course you know you're in the top 0.01 percent in your industry

so it's hard and the reason i ask this is because I work with so many people in this space,

and to have the courage to say,

no, I know that if I sort this out,

then all of this is going to be just fine.

That actually takes more courage than we recognize.

We realize that when you have nothing,

then there's nothing to lose.

You can actually have a lot of courage.

But when you have everything and there's everything to lose,

and a lot of the time,

at least what I've heard in town is,

you know, older managers and agents,

and I'm not saying you have any of this,

but people that I know will be told,

well, hey, if you don't do this,

like you'll be forgotten next year,

or, you know, your career is only going to last another six months.

how did you have

that courage to say no no no I need to do this like where did

that come from and I think that it's interesting like I've never thought about it

that way to be completely honest with you I just knew

that if I had gone any further

that I was going to lose myself I was at

that very I was on the teeter-totter edge of

that point where had I gone any further I was probably not going to be great.

It was so important to me to feel good that I just knew that it was something that I had to do.

And I can't say like, you're absolutely right.

Like there were so many people around me that had told me not to say no and told or told me,

yeah, told me not to say no,

told me not to stop.

I fought my way out of it a little bit because there were people that had worked for me that,

you know, didn't want me to stop because it might have benefited them.

But I got to that point and I just knew I had to do it.

And I just I don't know.

100

I don't know how to explain it, I guess.

101

It was just such an unbelievable sensation that I had where I knew that if I do this,

102

I'm going to be better for everyone and I'm going to be better for myself,

103

which means I'm going to be better for the people around me and I have to do this.

104

And so it wasn't really,

105

I want to be able to live with happiness.

106

God forbid any of this ever went away.

107

And I think that that was a big moment for me of being like,

108

I'm going to be okay if I don't get this job tomorrow.

109

And I'm going to be okay if I don't get that job in a month.

110

If I have to take this time to do whatever,

111

things will come, everything's going to work out the way it's supposed to.

112

And I had to trust that.

113

Yeah.

114

Well, to me, from the outside,

115

and it's beautiful that you didn't see it in yourself because

116

that makes it even more wonderful but the idea

117

that to me from the outset that's a lot of courage

118

yeah it takes a lot of courage it takes a lot of vulnerability

119

and openness and

120

and it takes courage at every level whether someone's thinking about quitting their job to do something they love

121

or whether someone's trying to relocate their family and doesn't know how

122

or whether someone like you is feeling success

123

but then going well wait a minute

124

and i think in the past few years we've seen athletes

125

and musicians and actors and people in all creative industries step back

126

and say well i need to put me first yeah

127

and i think that that's empowering

128

because i think we hear about burnout in work culture

129

and corporate so often for sure so what what was it

130

that you started to do with that newfound time at

131

that time like where was is that where the curio was the curiosity always there

132

and now you could actually follow it it was it was it was always there

133

and i had had a lot of people coming to me telling me about meditation

134

and how it changed their life and therapy and so many different things.

135

And I was a bit overwhelmed because I was like,

136

oh my God, what if this is going to suit me?

137

I think it's a very personal experience.

138

I think everybody has a very different version of all of that stuff.

139

And so it was a little overwhelming.

140

So I think I really just took the time to be off for a second.

141

It was even the little things it was like being able to go to my friend's birthday party

142

which i wouldn't have been able to go to before

143

because i was working a lot i i love hearing that

144

because i think it is those simple things like you know giving yourself

145

that space whatever it is that you needed to do yeah

146

when you needed it and and like you said sometimes it's like that's

147

when all the subscribe buttons come up in front of you

148

and it's like try this and try this and it's like well no no no let me just take my time.

149

It was also now that I think about it.

150

Yeah.

151

23. I'm 26.

152

I've had my horse for,

153

so around that time is when I bought the horse that I have now,

154

who is my, like I,

155

I jump her and I like how I,

156

I have two other horses, but they're like retired.

157

So I don't really ride them the same way I ride her.

158

So yeah, I guess it was around that time too,

159

that I was like, I'm going to do this because I love this.

160

And like, I want to get back into it.

161

And this is what I've loved my whole life so

162

so it was around that time that i feel like all of

163

that started happening and i bought my horse

164

and i like started taking more time for things

165

that made me really happy yeah what i what i'm noticing in you and observing

166

or at least from just oh god no in a good

167

way i was just saying it's like it feels like no

168

matter what's happening in your orbit there's this pillar of belief

169

that it's important to be happy yeah like you know that's

170

like this core center belief in your life where it's important to be happy it's important to be happy it's

171

that has to be the goal for sure

172

and you know it's not always easy we live in such an interesting industry

173

and in such an interesting time with social media

174

that it can be very hard sometimes you can fall victim to

175

so many things that don't serve you and that don't make you happy

176

if your happiness depends on the actions of others you know you're at mercy of things

177

that you can't control and that's never where I want to be

178

so I always want to live in like me

179

and my therapist talk about like my higher goddess my higher self like I always want to live there knowing

180

that you know when I'm there you can't take

181

that away from me that that's mine

182

and no matter what you can disagree with me you can

183

agree with me that's not going my i'm not changing i'm not shifting i'm here i'm in my higher goddess

184

so i kind of i always live by like

185

keep holding my happiness and not letting anyone else affect it

186

and though i fall victim to it at times of course

187

we as we all probably do absolutely i um i strive every day to live in that place so

188

What are some of the qualities of your higher goddess?

189

So that kind of avatar?

190

She's awesome.

191

Like I said, I don't love a pity party.

192

I also like, you know,

193

sometimes it feels weird to like say good things about yourself.

194

But I've also learned a lot about talking to myself

195

and a lot about looking in the mirror and being like, you're great.

196

You're gorgeous.

197

You're amazing.

198

You're loyal.

199

You're positive.

200

You're so many, like I love words of affirmation.

201

I love just sitting there and reassuring myself of who I am,

202

because that's another thing for me.

203

You know, there's so many false narratives about me,

204

about all of us, I'm sure.

205

Like so many people think they have you figured out when they don't even know the half of it.

206

So sitting there and being like,

207

you know, you get frustrated sometimes.

208

It could feel really unfair.

209

You could be reading something that someone is saying about you or hearing something that someone's saying about you and being like,

210

that is so unfair because that's not who I am.

211

And that really gets to me sometimes and that really sucks.

212

But then looking at myself in the mirror and being like,

213

but I know who I am.

214

And that's all.

215

Why does anything else matter?

216

And my friends know who I am and my family knows who I am.

217

My dog knows who I am.

218

My horse knows who I am who I am like why

219

does any of everything else is just noise I do this exercise I don't think I've shared this before

220

but I do this exercise with some of my clients where we'll go on a walk

221

and we'll be on a hike wherever we are

222

and I'll ask them what they think a piece of you know maybe there's a little leaf

223

or maybe there's some a flower or something

224

that looks a little unique on the path

225

and I'll say what do you think that feels like

226

and what do you think it would feel like

227

if you picked it up in your hand

228

and they'll be like oh it looks really rough

229

and like it might scratch me

230

and like it looks like a bit you know like uneven

231

or whatever and it looks kind of hard and strong

232

and then i'll ask them to pick it up

233

and nine times out of ten it's completely different like they'll pick it up

234

and it'll just dissolve in their hands or they'll turn it over

235

and the color's really soft and sorry the shape the shape's really soft and the color's totally different on the other side.

236

And I do that exercise to help us realize just how multifaceted humans are.

237

Today I've got to meet you and obviously we're spending a lot of deep,

238

intimate, vulnerable time together.

239

So you learn faster about someone,

240

but if someone only follows someone on social media or only sees someone at an event or only sees one interview,

241

it's so easy to create such a singular view of someone.

242

And I think, and I want to say this

243

because I really think we all feel it i don't think anyone wants to be seen in a singular way

244

if you had to choose one word

245

that had to be you for the rest of your life i don't think anyone wants

246

that i think we all know that we're messy and complex

247

and different of course but we like to put someone else in a box whoever

248

that may be because it's easier than to live life and say okay well that's persons a b

249

right yeah so there's this beautiful piece of wisdom that i always share from

250

charles horton cooley and he wrote this in 1890 i think it was

251

which just shows how true this has been for such a long time

252

and obviously long before that as well

253

and he said the challenge today is i'm not what i

254

think i am i'm not what you think i am i am what i think you think i am

255

and we'll let that blow everyone's mind it gives me chills every time i say it

256

yeah charles holton cooley said the challenge today is i'm not

257

what i think i am i'm not what you think i

258

am i am what i think you think i am

259

and what he's trying to say is

260

that we live in a perception of a perception of ourselves

261

so if i think you think i'm smart then i allow myself to feel smart right it's like we need

262

that validation we need that validation or if i think you think I'm not smart,

263

then I feel hurt.

264

And the challenge is, I don't know what you're thinking at all,

265

especially outside in the world.

266

And so I find that what you're saying around like,

267

well, what do I think about myself?

268

Like, how do I feel about myself?

269

How do the people that actually know me feel about me?

270

I think that's really empowering.

271

If you love this episode,

272

you will also love my interview with Kendall Jenner on setting boundaries to increase happiness and healing your inner child.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
