Speaker 1: I just need you guys to hear me out because
Speaker 1: I don't regret getting my nose off. I don't feel
Speaker 1: like it made me feel more like myself. Hi, guys,
Speaker 1: it is i Isy Armitage and welcome to hear me out.
Speaker 1: I've got my own buck. What the hell are you home?
Speaker 1: So I'm actually nervous, like I need a glass of wine.
Speaker 1: But we're gonna get through it together, guys. Obviously, it's
Speaker 1: such a different process to what I had before. You
Speaker 1: guys may know me from Just for Girls. It was
Speaker 1: a podcast I did with Sam for maybe two and
Speaker 1: a half years, which was huge, and it was fun
Speaker 1: and it was amazing and we learned so many things.
Speaker 1: But I think just as time went on, you know,
Speaker 1: things change. We're in different stages of our life, and
Speaker 1: we both thought, you know, why not make our own shows.
Speaker 1: So I guess that's what we're doing now. So this
Speaker 1: is my show. Hear me out. Some people may say
Speaker 1: I am a slightly opinionated person, and it's more just
Speaker 1: about being honest and open and hearing everyone's stories, hearing
Speaker 1: my stories. You guys are always so amazing on Just
Speaker 1: for Girls, submitting and giving us all your juicy gossip,
Speaker 1: and I just want to want everything to just be
Speaker 1: open and honest on here and like a best friend chat.
Speaker 1: And that's what we're doing today. And let's be real, guys,
Speaker 1: I love the gossip. If you don't like gossip, you're lying.
Speaker 1: So I just wanted to create a space where we
Speaker 1: could all chat and yap and gossip and hang out together.
Speaker 1: So that's what this is. I feel like I'm like
Speaker 1: shaking like a leaf, but you guys know me, and
Speaker 1: we'll get through it. I feel like first episode is
Speaker 1: always going to be a bit intimidating, but it will
Speaker 1: run what it's kind of going to be about. Obviously,
Speaker 1: I'll have guests on ideally, you know, maybe every second episode,
Speaker 1: so as you, guys, if you see someone that you
Speaker 1: want me to have on, please my dms always open.
Speaker 1: The dms on hear Me Out will always be open.
Speaker 1: The Instagram is called to hear me Out with Izzy,
Speaker 1: So get on there and submit everything. We'll be doing stories, dilemmas,
Speaker 1: all your submissions, secrets. We're gonna do a bunch of
Speaker 1: new different segments. It's gonna be fun and great and lighthearted. Obviously,
Speaker 1: I'm not a political genius or I don't know all
Speaker 1: the info in the world, so take everything I say
Speaker 1: with a grain of salt. It's just a bit of fun, guys.
Speaker 1: So where the name came from. Hear me out. In
Speaker 1: my mind, it's like a hot take. So it's like
Speaker 1: start of every episode, we're starting with a hear me out,
Speaker 1: a hot take. And as you guys know, I've just
Speaker 1: had a nose job. So I just need you guys
Speaker 1: to hear me out because I don't regret getting my
Speaker 1: nose job and don't feel like it made me feel
Speaker 1: more like myself. I've always been someone that is open
Speaker 1: and honest online about procedures or anything I get done.
Speaker 1: I feel like that is so important in today's day
Speaker 1: and age. I feel like it is so important to
Speaker 1: be honest when you have young viewers and everyone about
Speaker 1: things you're getting done. It's not a lie, but it's
Speaker 1: also not promoting doing it. And I feel like I've
Speaker 1: wanted it my whole life and I finally got it,
Speaker 1: and it makes me feel more confident, more like myself.
Speaker 1: You know. I just feel like my face now matches
Speaker 1: my vibe and that's what I wanted. So it's not about,
Speaker 1: you know, changing every nitpicking and you know, curating yourself
Speaker 1: to that perfect person. But if it makes you feel
Speaker 1: more like yourself and it makes you feel more confident,
Speaker 1: I am all for little changes to yourself with the
Speaker 1: nose job. There is a certain aspect of addressing it
Speaker 1: online that I do worry that it comes across as promoting.
Speaker 1: That's obviously not how I look at it and not
Speaker 1: my aim at all. Surgery is a huge deal, and
Speaker 1: it's something that I would never recommend doing unless it's
Speaker 1: for anyone but yourself. So just bear that in mind
Speaker 1: when I talk about it. I don't want young girls
Speaker 1: to be like, oh my god, she's gotten a nose
Speaker 1: job vibe. I want to go get a nose job.
Speaker 1: If it's something that feels right for you at that
Speaker 1: stage of your life and you're comfortable and you want
Speaker 1: to get it and you're excited for it and it's
Speaker 1: only for you, then absolutely, But I definitely don't want
Speaker 1: it to come across like I'm like, guys, my nose
Speaker 1: job and me, if you're really good, everyone go go,
Speaker 1: because that's not the case, and it actually is more
Speaker 1: I'd say it's more confronting than my boob job. I
Speaker 1: have my boobs on as well, Slagh. But it's definitely
Speaker 1: a different process because it's your face, and your face
Speaker 1: is something you look at every single day, many times
Speaker 1: a day. If you're a leo, I look at my
Speaker 1: face the fucking time, but it now looks slightly different.
Speaker 1: And I know a lot of people because I've been
Speaker 1: talking about those jobs and searching it up so much
Speaker 1: on my TikTok. It's pretty well like what my whole
Speaker 1: for You page is, and the amount of people that
Speaker 1: say the recovery process the hardest part about it was
Speaker 1: the fact that they had like three weeks where they
Speaker 1: just didn't feel like themselves because they didn't look like
Speaker 1: themselves and your nose, it will only get better with time.
Speaker 1: So I feel like, yes, I just got my cast
Speaker 1: off two days ago and I am pretty happy with
Speaker 1: how it looks, but it will change so much. But
Speaker 1: when I wake up in the morning, I'm like, what
Speaker 1: the fuck like? It is a very confronting situation because
Speaker 1: your face looks different to what you've always known it
Speaker 1: to look like. So it's not for the lighthearted or
Speaker 1: a quick, little spur of the moment decision. I would
Speaker 1: recommend anyone making so that's my hear me out guys.
Speaker 1: So as you guys know, your hear me outs and
Speaker 1: your opinions are very important to me, and we're gonna
Speaker 1: be listening to a lot of those throughout the episodes,
Speaker 1: and I'm going to be reacting to your biggest hot
Speaker 1: takes hear me out. So if you have interesting or
Speaker 1: controversial opinions on anything, just send them through because we're
Speaker 1: going to be running through a lot of those every
Speaker 1: episode and that will just be an open forum always.
Speaker 1: I want you guys to feel like anytime you have
Speaker 1: a story or a hear me out, send it on
Speaker 1: through and we'll read it out in the pod. Let's
Speaker 1: get into No's jobs. I've had so many questions. I've
Speaker 1: posted a couple of videos, but you guys are so
Speaker 1: curious on the ins and outs and the details on
Speaker 1: that procedure. So we're gonna talk about that. How it
Speaker 1: all went down. I have one of my nose down
Speaker 1: my whole life. A lot of people were like why, Like,
Speaker 1: my nose is fine, My nose was fine, Like there
Speaker 1: was nothing particularly horrible about it. It was I had
Speaker 1: a deviated septum. I couldn't breathe out of one side.
Speaker 1: I also got my turbinites reduced in one side because
Speaker 1: it's like a gland higher up in your nose and
Speaker 1: it was blocking my whole other nostril. The word nostril sick.
Speaker 1: So they straightened my septum and shrunk those so I
Speaker 1: can breathe and they at the same time. While obviously
Speaker 1: I'm in there, I had a favorite side and my
Speaker 1: other side because of the septum pushed outwards and kind
Speaker 1: of hooked over. I wanted that fixed, so they did
Speaker 1: shave it down a little bit. But everything, the swelling
Speaker 1: and everything will go down the tip well drop. But
Speaker 1: the process of one of my nose. Everyone asked how
Speaker 1: I picked the surgeon. I went to my GP and
Speaker 1: they recommended someone for me, and it was actually someone
Speaker 1: that one of my girlfriends had gotten their boobs done
Speaker 1: with him. But he's more renowned for rhino plastis and
Speaker 1: he was a bit of a one and done for me.
Speaker 1: That was the same with my boobs. I met with them.
Speaker 1: I think you just need to feel comfortable. I'd say
Speaker 1: a good way to pick a surgeon for rhino plastis
Speaker 1: if they're quite well versed in revision rhino plasties. It
Speaker 1: means they're usually quite good at the basic ones too,
Speaker 1: because if they can do the hard ones, they're really
Speaker 1: good at the easy ones. So his name was Andrew Greensmith.
Speaker 1: He was amazing. I would recommend him so highly. You know,
Speaker 1: I think what kind of hooked me is if anyone
Speaker 1: grew up in my like my age vibe Like do
Speaker 1: you know Trishna and Krishna they're conjoined twins.
Speaker 2: No, the ones that speak at the same time.
Speaker 1: No, they were like babies when we were growing up
Speaker 1: and they're like conjoined twins and they got separated when
Speaker 1: we were younger. But I remember hearing about it. He
Speaker 1: did like the first cut on them and was the
Speaker 1: like E and T on that surgery. No way, Yes,
Speaker 1: I'm like, he's good, So I went with him. He
Speaker 1: was amazing. I also didn't realize until when I was
Speaker 1: in my little hospital bed with my gown and cap on.
Speaker 1: He came over to talk to me. He does I
Speaker 1: think it's an ultrasonic rhinoplasty or something like that, And
Speaker 1: instead of using like hammer and chiesel vibes or they
Speaker 1: like break your nose, it's like a machine that vibrates
Speaker 1: high frequencies and that's the machine you used to shave
Speaker 1: the bone down, which I think is why I ended
Speaker 1: up with so little bruising and so little swelling is
Speaker 1: because it was a lot less traumatic to my face
Speaker 1: because of this new technology. So I'd say, if you
Speaker 1: can find someone that operates using that is a good time.
Speaker 1: I would obviously recommend going to a doctor first, a
Speaker 1: GP and talking to them about the procedure. They know
Speaker 1: people that are highly regarded, They can recommend it. They
Speaker 1: can also be like babe, talk you off the ledge sometimes.
Speaker 1: But it is now actually in new laws essential to
Speaker 1: get a referral from a GP before you do meet
Speaker 1: with a surgeon, so for a rhinoplasty, so just FYI
Speaker 1: it's something you're looking into, you do need to go
Speaker 1: to a doctor first. But I think it was a
Speaker 1: helpful part of process for me to be able to
Speaker 1: talk it out with someone versus just me being like, fuck, yeah,
Speaker 1: I want to get my nose done. Let's go look
Speaker 1: at a before and after. But so I met with
Speaker 1: the doctor and there was like they created this three
Speaker 1: D scan of my face. I didn't really go in
Speaker 1: with a lot of inspo because what's so important to
Speaker 1: know is you might want to Barbie little button nose,
Speaker 1: but that might not look best on your face. And
Speaker 1: I think I knew that those cute little noses like
Speaker 1: a Madison ber Nos or a Sydney kimberly Nos, like
Speaker 1: that's not going to look good on my face because
Speaker 1: I've got like quite prominent I've got like quite a
Speaker 1: round face. Anyway, I have a teeny little nose in
Speaker 1: the middle. It wouldn't look good like Sam's nose is
Speaker 1: the best nose ever. If that went on my face,
Speaker 1: I would look stupid, you know. So I kind of
Speaker 1: more just told him what I didn't like about my
Speaker 1: nose and things I liked about other people's noses, and
Speaker 1: he like used the computer program to kind of adjust
Speaker 1: my nose and show me a before and after, and
Speaker 1: it was so minimal in the photos. But I didn't
Speaker 1: ever want a huge change. And I think once all
Speaker 1: the swelling and everything goes down, people, oh, I don't
Speaker 1: see much of a difference. I didn't want much of
Speaker 1: a difference. I just wanted my little hook to be
Speaker 1: not a hook anymore. So anyway, everything's good. I found
Speaker 1: out I liked him, I was comfortable with him. And
Speaker 1: then I booked in the surgery and it was like,
Speaker 1: people ask how long you have to wait? I think
Speaker 1: mine was maybe three months. So my I would always
Speaker 1: recommend having a family member or someone there to look
Speaker 1: after you. My mum and sister were both away and
Speaker 1: I lived with my sister. And the reason I say
Speaker 1: my mum is because last time, when I got my
Speaker 1: boobs done, I moved in with my mum. But boobs
Speaker 1: is different because I couldn't lift my arm, so I
Speaker 1: couldn't even really get into bed on my own. I
Speaker 1: couldn't fluff my feelings, I couldn't cook, I couldn't do anything.
Speaker 1: I couldn't even brush my hair, so I needed to
Speaker 1: live with mom. I lived with Mum for two weeks.
Speaker 1: This time, my best friend legs older sister in Nushka.
Speaker 1: She was the one that drove me to and from
Speaker 1: the hospital. She basically just made me lunch like the
Speaker 1: day after and I froze it. And then from then
Speaker 1: on I really didn't have any help and I didn't
Speaker 1: need it, like she was obviously great and was offering
Speaker 1: me help. But you can do everything normally with your nose,
Speaker 1: like I wouldn't worry. I feel like everyone scares you online.
Speaker 1: I was a normal, functioning human being pretty well straight away.
Speaker 1: So I get to the hospital. The shit is fart
Speaker 1: about it for me is that you can't drink any water.
Speaker 1: My appointment was in the afternoon at like three, so
Speaker 1: I had to fast before from twelve from midnight the
Speaker 1: night before, so I just slept in and then when
Speaker 1: I woke up, I'm like, I need fucking water. But
Speaker 1: you can't drink water like you think. It doesn't make
Speaker 1: a bet, it's not gonna be a big deal, but
Speaker 1: it's about like when you're under you can't it could
Speaker 1: like run back up your throat and like you could
Speaker 1: toke on it or something. So basically, don't drink or
Speaker 1: eat if they tell you not to. I got to
Speaker 1: the hospital. They put me in a room and then
Speaker 1: I had about an hour. They changed me into my
Speaker 1: little gown, my compression socks, and my cap and then
Speaker 1: they wheeled me through the hospital, which was a humiliation
Speaker 1: ritually if I could ever, Like people were just walking
Speaker 1: through the hospital and I'm lying in bed being wheeled
Speaker 1: with a fucking shower cap on. It was hell. And
Speaker 1: then they took me into a room and it was
Speaker 1: actually so busy. There were all these different bays of
Speaker 1: people lying there who were obviously like prepping for surgery.
Speaker 1: And I was like, I like toe to toe in
Speaker 1: these beds, like staring right at this old man who
Speaker 1: was like trying to talk to me, and it was
Speaker 1: so fucking awkward. And I looked at the chick behind me,
Speaker 1: and I was like, can you move me ever so
Speaker 1: slightly because this is so awkward. She was like a
Speaker 1: young girl my age, and she was really nice, and
Speaker 1: she just like moved me around, wheeled me into a bay.
Speaker 1: You obviously don't have your phone, So I was twiddling
Speaker 1: my thumbs for like forty minutes. And then the anesthesiologist, anethetist,
Speaker 1: someone needs to confirm that for me, because I don't
Speaker 1: know the best way. I don't know how to what
Speaker 1: that's called. They came and spoke to me. Then the
Speaker 1: surgeon came and spoke to me, and then they injected
Speaker 1: me with something to calm me down. I get really,
Speaker 1: really sick on anesthesia, so I had to preface that.
Speaker 1: They gave me anti nausea meds and everything. That's honestly
Speaker 1: the worst part of the whole surgery for me is
Speaker 1: how sick I feel when I wake up, and yeah,
Speaker 1: this time was no fucking different. It was hell on
Speaker 1: a stick. So they wheeled me into the operating theater
Speaker 1: and this time I actually was like, oh, wake when
Speaker 1: they put me in the theater, and I was like
Speaker 1: talking to all the people around me, telling them about
Speaker 1: my fun little experience in America with the police and
Speaker 1: the guns and all that fun stuff. They're like, who
Speaker 1: is this fish? Shut the fuck up. They put the
Speaker 1: anesthesia over my mouth and knocked me out, and then
Speaker 1: it's so weird. I just like wake up a couple
Speaker 1: like seconds later, and I've got a new nose. But
Speaker 1: I remember how I felt after my boobs and I
Speaker 1: was so sick and I needed food like immediately. So
Speaker 1: when I woke up and I kind of gained my
Speaker 1: mind again, I was like, I need food. I need sandwiches.
Speaker 1: I need those homdwiches, sandwiches that they have at hospitals,
Speaker 1: like I need cubs now. And the lady's like, oh,
Speaker 1: we'll get your food when you get back to your room,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, when will that be? She goes about
Speaker 1: an hour an hour that will be the longest fucking
Speaker 1: hour of my life, and it was. She gave me
Speaker 1: a lie. I started crying Jamian icey bowl, a lemonade
Speaker 1: icey bowl, and I was sitting there with my bolster
Speaker 1: on and my cast on, crying while I was looking
Speaker 1: a little lemonade icy pole. And finally she brought me
Speaker 1: back to my room and I was still feeling so sick,
Speaker 1: and then I ate little halm and trees sandwiches, passed
Speaker 1: the fuck out, and then when I woke up, I
Speaker 1: just read Zodiac Academy until five am, and then I
Speaker 1: woke up the next time, I went home, and yeah,
Speaker 1: that was honestly. Being in the hospital and after waiting
Speaker 1: for the anesthesia to wear off was the worst part
Speaker 1: of the process for me. Pain levels pretty fucking low.
Speaker 1: Like I know, it seems really scary, but I wasn't
Speaker 1: in any pain pretty well the whole time, so it
Speaker 1: was good. I just had to clean it rest a lot.
Speaker 1: Sleeping was the hardest thing for me, because you have
Speaker 1: to sleep relatively upright for the first couple of days,
Speaker 1: and they don't recommend taking any sleeping meds because you're
Speaker 1: adjusting to breathing out of your mouth, and I know
Speaker 1: that's something that I struggled with like i'd wake myself up.
Speaker 1: I was realizing that, like I would just close my
Speaker 1: mouth and try and breathe out of my nose, and
Speaker 1: there's no airflow there, so you're basically dying. But yeah,
Speaker 1: sleeping was the shit as far and the anesthesia. Other
Speaker 1: than that, I think I had a pretty smooth recovery.
Speaker 1: I didn't really bruise, I didn't really swell. There are
Speaker 1: probably people looking at me that like had their eyes
Speaker 1: swollen shut going fuck you, super bitch. But I was
Speaker 1: really lucky so cast came off. I had mine on
Speaker 1: for fifteen days, which is quite long. A lot of
Speaker 1: people get those off after one week, but I actually,
Speaker 1: in the long run, I think I was glad because
Speaker 1: that meant the swelling was able to subside quite a lot,
Speaker 1: so it wasn't such a like, oh my god, my
Speaker 1: nose is so fat and ugly. When I took the
Speaker 1: cast off, it was like kind of calmed down a
Speaker 1: bit by then anyway, And yeah, it's an adjustment. It's
Speaker 1: crooked to one side, which is actually the other side
Speaker 1: that it was crooked too prior to the surgery, which
Speaker 1: is really fun. I have to do little nose exercises
Speaker 1: and like push my tip over. But yeah, I think
Speaker 1: it's just a waiting game now to get the spelling done.
Speaker 1: Everything but prices. A lot of you asked on my
Speaker 1: You always ask her my TikTok about prices. I just
Speaker 1: wasn't really comfortable putting it in. I don't know why.
Speaker 1: I feel like money is always just such a weird thing.
Speaker 1: I paid twenty two grand, but because I had a
Speaker 1: septoplasty and the terminite reduction that is covered under Medicare,
Speaker 1: so I will be getting money back, which takes a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks to come in, so right now, I'm
Speaker 1: not sure exactly how much out of pocket I will
Speaker 1: be at the end of it. I'll let you know
Speaker 1: once that money comes in. But yeah, it's it's expensive
Speaker 1: because he's renowned and he's great, and I think when
Speaker 1: it comes to plastic surgery, honestly, you'd rather just spend
Speaker 1: the money because it's your face and it's your body,
Speaker 1: and you'd rather it be done well. But so far,
Speaker 1: so good, Happy days. I'll update you of anything changes.
Speaker 1: I just can't wait for my spelling to subside and
Speaker 1: my notes will looks snatched and hot, So yeah, slay
Speaker 1: all right, guys, I opened up a question box on
Speaker 1: my story. I asked you guys to ask me some
Speaker 1: questions just because I feel like this episode is also
Speaker 1: about getting it reacquainted with me or if I have
Speaker 1: new listeners or anything like that. So I just got
Speaker 1: you guys to ask me some questions. I told you
Speaker 1: it was for a video, but it's for my secret podcast,
Speaker 1: so let's get into some of those. So, guys, we
Speaker 1: have Blakey, my producer. You guys, if you listen to
Speaker 1: Just for Girls, you will know him. He's gonna just
Speaker 1: ask me some of the questions. Oh, hi girl, congrats
Speaker 1: a thank you, welcome to hear me out.
Speaker 2: I'm going to jump straight into her, all right, how
Speaker 2: do I achieve the IDGAF is the effect?
Speaker 1: Oh? I feel like it's a fake it till you
Speaker 1: make it kind of thing, Guys, If I'm being honest,
Speaker 1: I definitely I'm sweet that you think that I did
Speaker 1: have that kind of attitude. But there's so much like
Speaker 1: I'm such an anxious person, and I feel like it's
Speaker 1: really challenging to fully have that kind of attitude. I
Speaker 1: just think what will be will be. I have the
Speaker 1: people around me that love me and know me, and
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to enjoy my young, twenty four year
Speaker 1: old life, and why should I let anyone get in
Speaker 1: the way of that. I just feel like you need
Speaker 1: to just see what makes you happy and fuck anyone
Speaker 1: that says anything different. It's just a bit of a
Speaker 1: Like this year, I actually said that this year is
Speaker 1: about myself and putting myself first, and I feel like
Speaker 1: it has totally changed my outlook on everything. If I
Speaker 1: don't want to do something, I'm not fucking doing it.
Speaker 1: So it's like, Oh, I have a prior commitment, I'm
Speaker 1: meant to go to dinner. Oh but I'm tired. Oh
Speaker 1: I'm going to cancel. And it might be rude, it
Speaker 1: might be, but I'm like, I'm putting myself first this
Speaker 1: year and doing things that make me happy and make
Speaker 1: me feel fulfilled. And I feel like it maybe has
Speaker 1: really helped me have that IDGAF boss vibe. So that's
Speaker 1: what you need to do. Just prioritize yourself.
Speaker 2: How did you get into social media slush influencing?
Speaker 1: It was never even something I considered. I'm so glad
Speaker 1: that my life has panned out the way it has,
Speaker 1: but I think I was just posting on TikTok for fun.
Speaker 1: This was twenty twenty maybe late twenty twenty two. I
Speaker 1: think it was November or December. I posted maybe four
Speaker 1: of five little videos of my friends, and then I
Speaker 1: had one video I was in Gold Coast with my friend.
Speaker 1: It was a transition video of me fake vomiting into
Speaker 1: a toilet and coming up with my makeup all did
Speaker 1: and it got like one point eight million views, and
Speaker 1: I was like, whoa, Like when you get that viral video, like,
Speaker 1: I'm sure there's some of you around that have had
Speaker 1: like a couple of those videos that do really well.
Speaker 1: It's like, oh my god, this is the best tay ever.
Speaker 1: But my manager, Claudia, i'd known her growing up through
Speaker 1: Actually the girl looked after me when I got my
Speaker 1: nose done Anushka. They were good friends, and so she
Speaker 1: reached out through and was like, hey, I've been looking
Speaker 1: at your social media. I then had a couple videos
Speaker 1: that got maybe thirty thousand views, and she was like,
Speaker 1: I know you. I feel like you'd be great in
Speaker 1: this industry. Would it be something you would consider coming
Speaker 1: in to have a meeting with me? And I actually,
Speaker 1: funnily enough, had had a really really big night. The
Speaker 1: night before that meeting was going to take place, and
Speaker 1: I had a bit of a meltdown about it. I
Speaker 1: was like, I don't want to I'm just enjoying social
Speaker 1: media right now. I don't want to make it serious.
Speaker 1: I don't want to make it work. I didn't want
Speaker 1: things to change, not that I was really posting much
Speaker 1: at all, but I just didn't really know I guess
Speaker 1: how the industry ran, or know if I'd be good
Speaker 1: for it, And with obviously the lingering anxiety, I was
Speaker 1: concerned that it would not be the right fit for me.
Speaker 1: And Mum was like, you got nothing to lose by
Speaker 1: just going in and meeting with her. I met with Claudia,
Speaker 1: my manager now and through the owner of One day Dream,
Speaker 1: and they just made me feel so relaxed and settled
Speaker 1: and were like, you really could be good at this,
Speaker 1: like your personality shines through and why not just give
Speaker 1: it a go. And I did and never looked back since.
Speaker 1: Now I've been doing social media full time for I
Speaker 1: think two years, and I couldn't be happier. Like I'm
Speaker 1: very grateful and very very lucky that I have so
Speaker 1: many beautiful people that love watching me and listening to
Speaker 1: me and can allow me to do that full time.
Speaker 1: So thank you.
Speaker 2: And the age old question. Do you find influencing to
Speaker 2: be hard?
Speaker 1: No, it's demanding mentally, but I would never compare it
Speaker 1: to a full time nine to five job in any
Speaker 1: aspect because even if I would have think, like when
Speaker 1: I worked full time at the call center, I did
Speaker 1: that for like two years. That was harder. It was
Speaker 1: still anxiety inducing. You still have to deal with lots
Speaker 1: of personalities, but you're going into an office and working
Speaker 1: full time and that was really challenging. And social media. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's not everything that it seems. It's not all sunshine
Speaker 1: and rainbows all the time, but it is. There are
Speaker 1: so many incredible benefits that I get out of it
Speaker 1: as well, And I'm choosing to put myself in this
Speaker 1: position and I'm grateful to be doing it and I
Speaker 1: love that I'm doing it. But from a demanding aspect
Speaker 1: of work, no, it's not hard. It's complicated and it
Speaker 1: can be challenging, but it's not a hard job if
Speaker 1: we're talking in the scheme of jobs.
Speaker 2: No, you mentioned the call center. Yeah, what were you
Speaker 2: doing before influencing and what did you want to be.
Speaker 1: Funnily enough, I always wanted to be a behavioral analysis
Speaker 1: because I loved criminal minds and that was like, and
Speaker 1: I love true crime, Like if you know me at all,
Speaker 1: I listened to true I've listened to True Crime to
Speaker 1: go to bed every single night for about four years now.
Speaker 1: And I think, now it's a bit of a it's
Speaker 1: a bit of an OCD sort of tick thing. I
Speaker 1: can't I don't feel like I could sleep without it,
Speaker 1: so I have to. But I wanted to do that.
Speaker 1: And then weirdly, weirdly enough, I had a I remember
Speaker 1: in you eight we were usd to like sit down
Speaker 1: and write what we viewed our life to be like
Speaker 1: in five ten years. And I wanted to be I
Speaker 1: wanted to be glam. I wanted to be hot, I
Speaker 1: wanted to have I didn't see myself doing an office job,
Speaker 1: you know. So and that was so confused at that
Speaker 1: point because I was like, all I've ever wanted to
Speaker 1: do is do something in crime or be a detective,
Speaker 1: or that is what I wanted to do my whole life.
Speaker 1: So then to sit down and actually write though what
Speaker 1: I've view you myself doing or how I viewed myself
Speaker 1: living in ten years, and it was totally opposite to that.
Speaker 1: I was a bit lost, and I think, honestly enough,
Speaker 1: that moment was when I was like, hang on, I
Speaker 1: actually don't know what I want to do anymore. Therefore,
Speaker 1: I never went to UNI until I was like, I'll
Speaker 1: figure it out. It will come to me. And because
Speaker 1: I hated school so much, so I was like, I
Speaker 1: didn't want to study and change out of it and
Speaker 1: feel like I'd wasted those six months and a course
Speaker 1: that I ended up moving out of. So I was like,
Speaker 1: I'll wait until it comes to me. I'm sure it will.
Speaker 1: It never did, not that that's comforting. I'm sure it
Speaker 1: would have. But then I got, obviously the call from Claudia,
Speaker 1: and I started doing what I'm doing now, which funnily enough,
Speaker 1: I think lines up pretty well to what I envisioned
Speaker 1: myself wanting to do when I was in year eight,
Speaker 1: So I'm very grateful. But I worked at macas, I
Speaker 1: was a cheerleading coach. I worked at a juice bar.
Speaker 1: My biggest longest job was that nine to five call
Speaker 1: center fucking shit show. So call centers don't recommend.
Speaker 2: Well good timing because also been tell us about your
Speaker 2: cheer history. I remember how good you were. I haven't
Speaker 2: heard enough film.
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm so excited. Really, so, I started cheerleading when
Speaker 1: I was in year five. Not to tear my own horn,
Speaker 1: I was pretty fucking good. I was in for anyone
Speaker 1: that like, this will only be relevant to people that
Speaker 1: care about cheerleading at all, but I was in level five.
Speaker 1: I was the point flyer, baby. I was on those
Speaker 1: people that got thrown up in the air. I was
Speaker 1: short as fuck at that point. I think I was
Speaker 1: like four n four foot nine at that point. So,
Speaker 1: uh yeah. I was also a tumbler because I've got
Speaker 1: my strong legs. We love strong legs on hear me out,
Speaker 1: So don't hate you strong legs. I used to hate them,
Speaker 1: but now I'm glad I have them. And so I
Speaker 1: was a tumbler and a flyer. And we actually traveled
Speaker 1: to compete in the American Nationals and CAA twice. So
Speaker 1: there's about sixty thousand people watching on those stages. So
Speaker 1: that was the scariest moment of my life to date.
Speaker 1: I reckon was performing there, but so much fun to
Speaker 1: be in Dallas with like a team of girls at
Speaker 1: such a young age. But I ended up I injured
Speaker 1: myself again and again and I just lost the love
Speaker 1: for it, and that's why I ended up quitting. But
Speaker 1: you know, it was such a fun part of my life.
Speaker 1: It literally consumed my world. I didn't watch TV. I
Speaker 1: watched cheerleading videos on YouTube. That was what I did
Speaker 1: for like six years. But yeah, if cheerleading was such
Speaker 1: a fun team sport. I had so many of the
Speaker 1: older girls that were like sisters to me. So if
Speaker 1: you ever think do I want to do it? Why not?
Speaker 1: It's really fun.
Speaker 2: So onto dating, Oh, at first, boyfriends over romanticized or
Speaker 2: not worth the hype.
Speaker 1: I love having a boyfriend, Honestly, I think over romanticize absolutely,
Speaker 1: and nine times out of ten they will end up
Speaker 1: breaking your fucking little heart. But I feel like you
Speaker 1: grow and learn something from every single relationship, So I
Speaker 1: don't regret any of my relationships. I definitely think, don't
Speaker 1: worry about it. If you're not in a relationship or
Speaker 1: you don't have a boyfriend, you're not missing out on anything,
Speaker 1: do you know what I mean? Like you you will
Speaker 1: learn eventually, you will find someone eventually. There's no point
Speaker 1: getting into a relationship for the sake of it, just
Speaker 1: because you feel like you're missing out. You're definitely not.
Speaker 1: But you know, sometimes it's fun to be think you're
Speaker 1: in love at a young little age, you know.
Speaker 2: And if your life was a movie, who would the
Speaker 2: viewers want you to be with?
Speaker 1: A nice fucking man that's not gonna cheat on me
Speaker 1: would be nice. I would like to know who, could
Speaker 1: you guys see me dating celebrities like I slided into.
Speaker 1: I want to know, like, tell me who I should date.
Speaker 1: You already know it, because I'm gonna then manifest it
Speaker 1: and make it happen and then I'll get back to
Speaker 1: you guys.
Speaker 2: Okay, so maybe we don't say it.
Speaker 1: Out we don't say it out loud. Tell me who
Speaker 1: you think i'd be really good with, and I'll fucking
Speaker 1: make it happen. Thanks onto the surgery chat. Yeah, which
Speaker 1: recovery was worse? Nose or breasts? Boobs? Breasts such a
Speaker 1: formal word. I don't know what to say. Boobs was
Speaker 1: worse because you had such more limited movement. You couldn't.
Speaker 1: Mum literally had to like come, I to be like,
Speaker 1: hey mom, I'm ready to get out of bed, and
Speaker 1: she had to like help me push myself up because
Speaker 1: you can't put weight on you know, how you'd like
Speaker 1: push yourself up out of bed. You can't do that.
Speaker 1: So it was just a lot more limiting and your muscle.
Speaker 1: It was definitely a lot more painfu it's a lot
Speaker 1: more life altering.
Speaker 2: Yeah, completely, okay, girl, Yeah, best ways to stop worrying
Speaker 2: about what people say about you.
Speaker 1: The people that like you and the people whose opinions
Speaker 1: that you care about will not make you feel that
Speaker 1: way and will not talk about you like that. So
Speaker 1: it's more just like, why worry about the opinions of
Speaker 1: people that either don't actually like you, don't have your
Speaker 1: best interests at heart, or don't know you. You know,
Speaker 1: it's irrelevant frankly, the people opinions of people that like you,
Speaker 1: don't know or don't like It's like, why would you
Speaker 1: let them affect how you feel? And you know, the
Speaker 1: opinions of your family and your friends and the people
Speaker 1: you love like they're the opinions you need to listen to.
Speaker 1: And everyone else it's like, not everyone's gonna like everyone,
Speaker 1: but you don't need to tailor make yourself to be
Speaker 1: likable to everyone in the whole world. So it's okay
Speaker 1: to have negative opinions about you sometimes, but as long
Speaker 1: as you don't dwell on them and just try and
Speaker 1: focus on the positives, because nine times out of ten
Speaker 1: there is so many more amazing comments, and I feel
Speaker 1: like we tend to dwell on the negative ones. So
Speaker 1: my thought process is just laugh and move on.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think these are parallel to each other.
Speaker 2: But how do you also deal with speculation and rumors
Speaker 2: about yourself?
Speaker 1: Sometimes it can be frustrating, but I find that my
Speaker 1: best way to go about it online is to not
Speaker 1: say anything. I feel like feeding into it makes it worse.
Speaker 1: Getting angry makes it worse. Everything dies down eventually. I
Speaker 1: think I'm quite lucky that I haven't had too much
Speaker 1: drama online for now. Hopefully that's how it continues. But
Speaker 1: I find I just tend to try not to pay
Speaker 1: it too much mind, and there is that's easier said
Speaker 1: than done. When I have been lucky not to have
Speaker 1: a lot of drama coming to me online, I can
Speaker 1: imagine how much more challenging that would be if it
Speaker 1: were in full force in your comments section at all times.
Speaker 1: But no one's out here saying you're not allowed to
Speaker 1: delete comments you're not a lot of band words. Whatever
Speaker 1: keeps your peace is what I think you should go with.
Speaker 2: And to finish what's next for missus?
Speaker 1: He what's next? Fuck? Guys, I don't know what do
Speaker 1: you want to see for me next? I think I
Speaker 1: just want to put a lot of effort into this.
Speaker 1: I want this to be a safe, comfortable, happy place
Speaker 1: for you, guys. I want it to be a good
Speaker 1: place for me. I'm really excited to be starting something
Speaker 1: on my own. I think I can be quite self
Speaker 1: deprecating and when it comes to the business side of things,
Speaker 1: because I can be lazy, and I can be unorganized,
Speaker 1: and sometimes I fear or worry like that I can't
Speaker 1: do these things. So to be able to start something
Speaker 1: on my own and curate it and hopefully have it
Speaker 1: be successful, that is what I'm going to be focusing
Speaker 1: on now. Because I also just want to prove to
Speaker 1: myself that I can that I can have like a
Speaker 1: successful business and podcasts and do something on my own.
Speaker 1: So it's about proving it to myself. So that's what
Speaker 1: I'm focusing on. So my dms and the podcast ms
Speaker 1: and everything is always open. Like I said, we're gonna
Speaker 1: call them hear me Out from here on out. But
Speaker 1: basically it's like a hot take and an interesting or
Speaker 1: controversial opinion. I want to hear them from you guys
Speaker 1: at all times because we're gonna be running through a
Speaker 1: couple every single episode and then follow along on the
Speaker 1: stories on hear Me Out with Izzy, which is the
Speaker 1: Instagram handle of this podcast, and we'll be asking for submissions,
Speaker 1: and I just want to hear everything from you guys,
Speaker 1: because I feel like this podcast isn't gonna be what
Speaker 1: I want it to be without the input of all
Speaker 1: of you guys as well, because you guys make it
Speaker 1: what it is and hopefully we can grow it together.
Speaker 1: There'll be links and everything in all the show notes
Speaker 1: for this episode, and in the bio. We're gonna try
Speaker 1: and create a sort of website where you can go
Speaker 1: to submit different types of submissions through a link in
Speaker 1: the bio of hear Me Out with Izzy, just so
Speaker 1: if something ever pops up, even if it's not something
Speaker 1: I've spoken about that episode, you can just chuck it
Speaker 1: in there and we can look at it for future episodes.
Speaker 1: But thanks for hearing me talk guys. This is so exciting,
Speaker 1: But I love you all, and I'm so excited for
Speaker 1: what the future will bring. Next week we will have
Speaker 1: a guest on, so stay tuned on the stories for
Speaker 1: what sort of submissions we're looking for for next week.
