Speaker 3: It's not for everyone, Like it doesn't resonate for everyone,

64
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 3: but I kind of like that, you know, like I

65

Speaker 3: would rather wear some thing that not everyone likes but

66
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 3: they're talking about, then just wear something boring that like

67

70
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 3: of like a pink thing on the real reel and

71
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,440

72
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,880

73
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 3: an honor because I'm like, I love that people like

74
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 3: really recognize my style. I will say sometimes like I

75
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 3: do have you know in my Instagram bio and obviously

76
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 3: I'm the queen of pink, but I wear every color.

77
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 3: I also can rock like an all black, So sometimes

78
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 3: people will be really intense, like if I'm wearing black,

79
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 3: They're like, where's your pink? Like sometimes people will get

80
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 3: like to attached to it, and I'm like, girl, we

81
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 3: do everything here, like it's okay, we can.

82
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: I don't know if I've ever seen you in and all,

83
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: I might be the same. I might be like, what's happening? No?

84
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 3: No, Sometimes people are like are you okay, and I'm like, no,

85
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 3: I'm just like kind of taking on a new personality today.

86
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 3: But yeah, but I feel like overall people respond to

87
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 3: it well. And I think even if people wouldn't wear

88
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 3: some of the stuff I wear, I think the whole

89
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 3: essence of my style too, is just inspiring people to

90
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,119
Speaker 3: kind of own what they like and wear what they

91
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 3: like and I think that resonates with people.

92
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 2: I also think to be a true fashion girl and

93
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:16,159
Speaker 2: to be an icon, you really have to have like

94
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 2: people can look at a picture and they'll be like,

95
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 2: that's so kim Ka's so yeah, that's oh, that's so her.

96
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 2: And I feel like that is the sign that you're

97
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 2: not just like melting into all totally totally.

98
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 1: That's a no.

99
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 3: I think it's a great sign. And yeah, and I

100
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 3: think like, you know, our the whole internet specifically, but

101
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 3: like the whole fashion world and especially this wave of

102
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 3: like fashion influencers that has you know, happened in the

103
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 3: past few years. It's so oversaturated and also like so

104
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 3: many of us are getting gifted the same things and

105
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 3: with so many like it's like so much of the

106
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 3: same thing. So it's just like, yeah, I really try

107
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 3: and you know, not fall into the I don't know,

108
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 3: you just you got to stand out and like, you know,

109
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 3: and you gotta do something different, because if you think about, yeah,

110
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 3: all the fashion icons of our time, they were all

111
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 3: doing something different. Like I always want to be the

112
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 3: inspo and not copying what other people are doing. I

113
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,359
Speaker 3: love that, Yeah, you're the insfo, not the followers exactly,

114
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 3: exactly exactly.

115
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 2: Is there a trend that you think people are doing

116
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,039
Speaker 2: because of social media, not because they like it? Like,

117
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 2: is there a fashion trend that you're like that is

118
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 2: so social media driven?

119
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 3: I feel like there are so many, Like I feel

120
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 3: like every month, Yeah, there's like a different one.

121
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: Like I'm trying, there's all these like little.

122
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 3: I'm trying to think of a specific one, but I

123
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 3: just think certain pieces or like vibes go viral, you know,

124
00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 3: like for a while, there was the whole like quiet

125
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:46,480
Speaker 3: luxury thing.

126
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 2: I was going to ask you next your thoughts on

127
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,720
Speaker 2: quiet think about it because you're the opposite, which I love.

128
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 3: I honestly I hate it, excuse my language. I have

129
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 3: always hated it. And I feel like now we're kind

130
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 3: of seeing in fashion this I feel like it's a

131
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 3: really it's a really fun, bright time in fashion. I

132
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 3: feel very inspired by what's going on in all the

133
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 3: cature house and all the big luxury houses and you know,

134
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 3: on the runways, Like there's so much freshness in the

135
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 3: fashion industry right now, and there's a lot more like

136
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,840
Speaker 3: color and boldness, and I think, you know, fashion is

137
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 3: such a reflection too of like what's going on in

138
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 3: the world. And I think our world is very heavy

139
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 3: and you know, dark right now in a lot of ways.

140
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,479
Speaker 3: And I think fashion is it can be this like

141
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:32,760
Speaker 3: beautiful escape.

142
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,000

255
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,160
Speaker 3: I can tell you I'm very inspired by going back

256
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 3: to Little Soko. I'm very inspired by my younger self

257
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 3: and past versions of myself too, like even like I'll

258
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,440

259
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,040
Speaker 3: that was really cool, like like you got to take

260
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 3: inspo from yourself. I think sometimes I get so much

261
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 3: inspo from people watching in like the cities that I love,

262
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 3: Like I prefer to get like I don't really get

263
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 3: inspired from the internet, Like I'm not like a big

264
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,440

265
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 3: you know, fabulous New York style girlies, but I try

266
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 3: not to get too much inspo from the internet because

267
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 3: once again, it's just like the coffee paste, Like I

268
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 3: just never want to be doing that. But I get

269
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,240
Speaker 3: so much inspo from people watching. I've always been obsessed

270
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 3: with people watching, especially in New York, like just at

271
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 3: the coffee shop, Like I'll sit on the bench and

272
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 3: just like watch people and I get inspired by like

273
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 3: super random things, like the way like a shoe and

274
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 3: salt combo that someone's wearing, or like a specific bag

275
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,679
Speaker 3: they're wearing. So I love the people watching in New

276
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 3: York and Paris. I know we'll talk about that obviously. Vintage.

277
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 3: Vintage is a huge source of inspiration for me. I

278
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 3: mean I would say, like you're the best, seventy percent

279
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:11,199
Speaker 3: seventy to eighty percent of my wardrobe is vintage. I

280
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 3: there there is no deeper flow state for me than

281
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,520
Speaker 3: being in a vintage store and like sifting through items

282
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,559
Speaker 3: like that, it gives me life in a way I

283
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 3: can't even explain, Like it's my It's my biggest source

284

338
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,320

339
00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 2: has nothing to do with buying anything, It has nothing

340
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:37,840
Speaker 2: to do with spending money. It just inspires you to

00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 3: what was I up to in twenty sixteen.

359
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, this is like the birth of style

360
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 1: with Soco. This is the time, this is.

361
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 3: The birth of my whole kind of thing. But I

362
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 3: started posting on Instagram. I started my style page style

363
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 3: with Soco when I was a senior in high school,

364
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 3: which was like ten years ago. At this point, I'm twenty.

365
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 1: Seventeen or in high school in twenty sixteen.

366
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 3: I was.

367
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 1: I graduated high school in twenty sixteen. Oh my god,

368
00:16:57,840 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 1: I was graduating.

369
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 3: College and started college. But yeah, when I was a

370
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:05,080
Speaker 3: senior in high school, after I'd gotten into college, I

371
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:08,000
Speaker 3: had I've always, like I said, like style, it's just

372
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,360
Speaker 3: always been my thing. But I didn't realize I think

373
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,520
Speaker 3: when I was younger that like fashion could be a career,

374
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:16,400
Speaker 3: and I was like very invested in like school. When

375
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 3: I was like, I was like straight a student, like thoughts,

376
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 3: careers were very different back.

377
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:21,800
Speaker 1: It was very different.

378
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:23,159
Speaker 3: I just was like, oh, and then I you know,

379
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,440
Speaker 3: I actually started my page when I was in high

380
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 3: school because also, you know, Seattle, there's not much style there.

381
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 3: At my high school, everyone was wearing Lula lemon leggings

382
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 3: and ugs, and I would show up in these outfits

383
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 3: and sweatsuits yeah north face, yeah north face. So I

384
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 3: would show up in these outfits and I was like,

385
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 3: you know what, I'm going to just start like documenting

386
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 3: them for myself. So I started my page in high

387
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 3: school just for fun, and me and my mom too

388
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,400
Speaker 3: were always kind of like the style people in Seattle

389
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 3: like all of my friends would go to you know,

390
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,160
Speaker 3: love to go shopping with us, and we were always

391
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,399
Speaker 3: doing high low, Like my mom was taking me into vintage

392
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 3: stores in twenty sixteen and TJ Max and Target. We

393
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 3: were finding cool shit it. But so I started, you know,

394
00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,919
Speaker 3: on Instagram, but obviously I had like fifty followers. And

395
00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 3: then I went to college at Tulane. And when I

396
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,360
Speaker 3: got to Tulane, I was kind of like, okay. It

397
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,399
Speaker 3: really helped me come out of my shell too, and

398
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:15,760
Speaker 3: I was like, this is what I want to do

399
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,480
Speaker 3: for a living. I want to work in fashion. So

400
00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 3: I got fashion internships like every summer. And at the

401
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 3: same time, I kept up with the Instagram page like

402
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 3: I you know, I kept making it a part of

403
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,880
Speaker 3: my brand. I would you know, post random outfits whatever,

404
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:30,959
Speaker 3: not making any money, and it was kind of before

405
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:32,920
Speaker 3: the age of like it making It was like the

406
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,640
Speaker 3: oh no, I wasn't making I was not any money,

407
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 3: was making money. It wasn't the og bloggers. But yeah,

408
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 3: I had like a blog. I just like I don't know,

409
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 3: I just never gave up on it was my thing.

410
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,199
Speaker 3: And in college, I like wrote for a mac. I

411
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,959
Speaker 3: just like did all of these things, and then I

412
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 3: ended up fast forward.

413
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:49,920
Speaker 1: I had a bunch of fashion internships.

414
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,360
Speaker 3: I ended up starting my career at Bloomingdale's, going through

415
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,320
Speaker 3: the buying program, which was amazing. I'm so happy that

416
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 3: I worked a corporate job because I think it was

417
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 3: such valuable experience. But when I moved to New York

418
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty, which was like a weird time, like

419
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 3: summer of twenty twenty, so the city was kind of

420
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,919
Speaker 3: like half closed, but it was twenty twenty was the

421
00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,120
Speaker 3: time when like TikTok became a thing. And at first

422
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 3: TikTok was just like Charlie Demilio and like the dances

423
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,160
Speaker 3: and all of that. But then right when I moved

424
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 3: to New York, it started to become more niche of

425
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 3: like fashion, food, lifestyle. So I just started posting. And

426
00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:28,440
Speaker 3: it's so funny because I remember I was in college.

427
00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:31,400
Speaker 3: The world was about to shut down, and like TikTok

428
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,199
Speaker 3: was just starting, and I told my dad, I was like,

429
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:35,960
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go viral on TikTok, like I'm gonna do it,

430
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 3: Like that's what I'm gonna do. But yeah, so I

431
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 3: just I started posting about my journey moving to New

432
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 3: York on TikTok. I had one video like go viral

433
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,800
Speaker 3: that when I first moved to New York and I

434
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 3: just kind of like never gave up on it. I

435
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 3: kept going with it, and at that time in twenty twenty,

436
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,120
Speaker 3: it's kind of when all of the New York City

437
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 3: TikTokers were coming up. So I kind of got And

438
00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 3: then there were months and months of just posting like elf,

439
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 3: I talked a lot about fashion, career stuff and whatever.

440
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 3: I just never stopped. But still at this when I started,

441
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 3: I was like, I never I never thought I would

442
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:11,640
Speaker 3: do it as a full time job. I always wanted

443
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 3: to stay in corporate fashion. But it then the city

444
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,879
Speaker 3: opened up. I started going to all these events. You know,

445
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,439
Speaker 3: I was working at Bloomingdale's and then every night I

446
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 3: was going out, I was meeting a million people. I

447
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:27,960
Speaker 3: said yes to everything.

448
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:29,879
Speaker 2: You're another one of those girls that I know that

449
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 2: just like I just out there, I see you.

450
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 1: Yeah there, I'm out there.

451
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:37,359
Speaker 3: I've been out there yeah for years, but like especially

452
00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:39,439
Speaker 3: at that time, like I was just like this is

453
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 3: so cool, this is so fun. Like I moved to

454
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,160
Speaker 3: New York, I'm getting invited to these events. And at

455
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,159
Speaker 3: the time they were random ass events, but like I

456
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,919
Speaker 3: thought they were cool, you know. So I was just

457
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 3: doing it, doing it, doing it. And then I was

458
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,640
Speaker 3: in a really cool role at Bloomingdale's. I was doing

459
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 3: their pop ups and I loved it, but it was

460
00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 3: the kind of job there wasn't like much of a

461
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,399
Speaker 3: next step. I wasn't sure if I wanted to be

462
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,760
Speaker 3: in like such a corporate environment anymore, because from the

463
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,919
Speaker 3: social media side, I've always been really inspired by like

464
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 3: female entrepreneurs and just people doing their own things. I've

465
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 3: always wanted to have my own thing since I was

466
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 3: very young, Like I always wanted to have my own

467
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,400
Speaker 3: brand or something. So it got to the point where

468
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 3: I was looking for new jobs. I was putting a

469
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 3: little bit more into social media, and I finally started

470
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 3: to take brand deals and I was like, oh, you

471
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,679
Speaker 3: can make a lot of money just from like posting this,

472
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:32,680
Speaker 3: and I saved up a bunch of money. I wasn't

473
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 3: you know, I've been in a situation too. I think

474
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 3: it's very interesting in this content world, and I feel

475
00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,760
Speaker 3: like we've talked about this, like a lot of girls

476
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 3: just like you know, in this world, like come from

477
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,359
Speaker 3: a lot of money and just kind of were able

478
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,480
Speaker 3: to start it. But I've been supporting myself, you know,

479
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,760
Speaker 3: I pay my own rent, so I kind of had to, like,

480
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,360
Speaker 3: you know, I had all this money saved up from

481
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 3: these brand deals that I just didn't touch. And then,

482
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:56,440
Speaker 3: you know, me and my dad were talking, and my

483
00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,320
Speaker 3: dad has always been like a constant source of He's

00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:10,199
Speaker 3: your finances and just you know, being very firm and

487
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:11,919
Speaker 3: honest with me, like here's the deal. If you want

488
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:13,120
Speaker 3: to live in New York and you want to pay

489
00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 3: your rent, this is the kind of job you have

490
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 3: to have. You got to make this money to whatever.

491
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:21,200
Speaker 3: So that was always like suit, that was you know him, honestly,

492
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,760
Speaker 3: my dad. I couldn't have been doing this without his guidance.

493
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:27,760
Speaker 3: But my dad was actually the one who was like,

494
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:30,359
Speaker 3: if you want to try this, like you have a

495
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 3: few months rent saved up, like why not? And kind

496
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 3: of everyone in my life is like, you've been doing

497
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:36,960
Speaker 3: this since you were in high school, Like just.

498
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 1: Go for it.

499
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 3: And so I ended up quitting Bloomingdale's and I remember

500
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 3: when you quit, and I like, looking back, I was like,

501
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 3: like I did not have a lot of like I

502
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:48,919
Speaker 3: think I had like fifteen k followers on it, Like

503
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 3: I don't know. I kind of quit blindly, but I

504
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:54,679
Speaker 3: was like, worse that can happen. I'll go back to

505
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 3: working in corporate. And I think I quit at a

506
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,120
Speaker 3: good time. I feel like now everyone's quitting and doing

507
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 3: it and it's become even more oversaturated. But I quit,

508
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 3: and I do I think too many people are quitting

509
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,760
Speaker 3: their dolls. Yeah, I quit, and I just kind of

510
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:09,560
Speaker 3: dove into it. I did not know what the fuck

511
00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 3: I was doing, but I just took the leap. I

512
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 3: took a chance on myself. I got like a manager

513
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 3: and started. I don't know the first I feel like

514
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 3: the first honestly. Up until now, it's just like was

515
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:26,640
Speaker 3: a clusterfuck of like this project that like just throwing

516
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 3: myself at anything just to be like, okay, can I

517
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,440
Speaker 3: make enough money you know to do this? And then

518
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 3: it's like by now, now I've been doing it for

519
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 3: like over two years and it's like the best job

520
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:42,200
Speaker 3: ever and I feel so lucky and you know, I've

521
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 3: been able to make an amazing career out of it.

522
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 3: I think, you know, first of all, there's a lot

523
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:48,399
Speaker 3: of money in this industry and I'm not even a

524
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 3: huge creator, and I making much more than I did

525
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,240
Speaker 3: at Blooming Deals, which is insane. You know, I could

526
00:23:55,280 --> 00:24:00,120
Speaker 3: have never pictured that. Like, I really feel so lucky

527
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 3: day to be doing this and to be able to

528
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:05,639
Speaker 3: support myself. It's so rewarding to kind of have your

529
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,120
Speaker 3: own business and do it. But you know, I think

530
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 3: it's a mix of a lot of things. You know,

531
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,960
Speaker 3: it's having the creative, having the cool style, like having

532
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,719
Speaker 3: the the it girl touched, but then it's also like

533
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,639
Speaker 3: making the money, working hard, figuring out how to save it.

534
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 3: It's also like a different form of income where you're

535
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 3: not getting you know, like a salary every week every year.

536
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 2: Is there something that surprised you about making your own

537
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:33,119
Speaker 2: money or something that you learned that you wish you

538
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:33,640
Speaker 2: would have known.

539
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: I can list a thousand things.

540
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:39,879
Speaker 3: Oh my god, a million things, a million things. I yeah,

541
00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 3: I I'm trying to think it is.

542
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 1: It is big girl shit. It is big girl shit. Yeah,

543
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 1: it's a lot.

544
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 3: Like I did not realize how much we'd have to

545
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:53,639
Speaker 3: pay in tax, Like the taxes are insane in this industry.

546
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,920
Speaker 2: Give an accountant. I'm assuming, Yes, I didn't even know.

547
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 2: I didn't know I needed to know.

548
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 1: Honestly, I think the same financial guy, my dad.

549
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:05,359
Speaker 3: I'm extremely lucky for because he But another nice thing

550
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 3: is like I didn't realize that we could write off

551
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 3: half of our life as a business expense, which is

552
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 3: so nice. But yeah, and I honestly just like did

553
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:18,199
Speaker 3: not realize. You know, It's it's just like crazy how

554

Speaker 1: Like it's just say, how much you can make from

556
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 1: an Instagram post.

557
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:29,119
Speaker 2: And I also think it's crazy how unbelievably expensive New

00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 3: And I feel like, also, I've always been, you know,

561
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 3: I've always supported myself, and I've always been a big spender,

562
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,159
Speaker 3: which is an issue. Like I love to spend, like

563
00:25:47,160 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 3: I like, like I feel like every time I breathe,

564
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 3: I spend one hundred dollars. And but the thing is like,

565
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 3: because it's my own money, I'm like, you know, I

566
00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 3: make my own money, so I spend it how I

567
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:03,959

568
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 3: hard for me of like, Okay, how do I balance

569
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,640
Speaker 3: like all of these expenses.

570
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,480
Speaker 2: I want to heavily encourage financial literacy. Yeah, and because

571
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 2: it's like not like I don't have.

572
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 1: Good financial guidance. I don't. I'm not.

573
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 2: Every woman I talk to they're like, oh, my husband

574
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 2: does this, my husband does that. My husband, And I'm like, well,

575
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 2: I don't have a husband and I don't have someone

576
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:26,440
Speaker 2: that can get me financially that like is doing things

577
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 2: in a way that I would want to do them.

578
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,199
Speaker 1: And it is just absolutely crazy.

579
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 2: And I feel like we just, yeah, why does every

580
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,440
Speaker 2: man know all of this and we don't.

581
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 1: It's I know, I know there should have been Yeah, it.

582
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,639
Speaker 2: Should it should have to learn about it at least knowledge.

583
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: Everyone should be required to.

584
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,440
Speaker 2: Take some kind of financial literacy before they because everybody

585
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,399
Speaker 2: wants to be an entrepreneur and everybody wants to do it,

586
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:48,400
Speaker 2: and everyone wants to own.

587
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,639
Speaker 1: Theirs, everybody wants to be like a girl boss. But

588
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,440
Speaker 1: you kind of have to have that knowledge to you

589
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 1: need it. Yeah, you literally need or you're going to

590
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 1: find yourself in huge trouble.

591
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,159
Speaker 2: So I feel like that's the thing about it is

592
00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,360
Speaker 2: that even when people say, like that girl is she's

593
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:01,120
Speaker 2: just a dumb influencer.

594
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,440
Speaker 1: She's just something weel. She's managing millions of dollars, which

595
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,280
Speaker 1: isn't easy. Like she's running a business.

596
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 2: There's so many girls that they're like, she doesn't know

597
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,120
Speaker 2: anything about this, she doesn't know how to run a business.

598
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 2: And Michael, She's right, no, yes, he's bringing in revenue

599
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,240
Speaker 2: millions of dollars every year and she's managing all of that.

600
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:16,400
Speaker 1: And she's managing your own money.

601
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:19,360
Speaker 2: I'm like, there's a level of intelligence right there that, oh, yeah,

602
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 2: people don't have. So I feel like I really you

603
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,359
Speaker 2: and all the New York girlies especially, I'm like, I

604
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 2: really respect how much you're able to figure out managing

605
00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,880
Speaker 2: your own money and not having a husband that can

606
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 2: do it for you.

607
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 1: Nobody told me I needed an account. I had no idea. Yeah,

608
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 1: he told me how the business expense thing worked. Like

609
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 1: I was like, I had no idea how this works.

610
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 1: I really didn't know, and I just had to slowly

611
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 1: learn and I'm still learning.

612
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I just encourage women before they quit their jobs,

613
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 2: one hundred percent, before they decide they want to start

614
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 2: their own thing, just figure out what it's going to entail,

615
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 2: because yeah, making a lot of money requires a lot.

616
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:58,760
Speaker 1: Of responsibility, one hundred percent, a hundred person.

617
00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:12,440
Speaker 2: A glamorous Yes, is there anything that you wish you

618
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 2: knew business wise before you started? That to any woman

619
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 2: starting her own brand, you would say she needs to

620
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,400
Speaker 2: know doesn't have to be a financial.

621
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,400
Speaker 3: I think, honestly, I think, I think when it comes

622
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 3: to the influencer world, I think even deeper than any

623
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 3: of the whatever the financial, the business, I think you

624
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,879
Speaker 3: have to be very mentally tough to be in this job.

625
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:35,360
Speaker 1: I think with.

626
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 3: Being an influencer and basically like like I am my job,

627
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,920
Speaker 3: Like my whole job is based on me, Like you know,

628
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,160
Speaker 3: it's so much deeper than this, but there is an

629
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 3: extent where it's like our job is like how we

630
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 3: look and how we dress, and like staying relevant and

631
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 3: staying cool and like that takes a lot on your

632
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 3: mental health. And I think I think, I mean, I'm

633
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 3: I've always been very confident and in myself, but I

634
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 3: think being in this industry can like fuck with your

635
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 3: head sometimes. So I think my advice to someone if

636
00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 3: you specifically, if you want to be in the content world,

637
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,719
Speaker 3: but I think in any in creative just being in

638
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,400
Speaker 3: the creative industries as well, I think you have to

639
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:20,680
Speaker 3: be very mentally tough. And it's also highs and lows

640
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,239
Speaker 3: all the time. And I have friends, like friends come

641
00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 3: to me all the time like, oh, my content's not

642
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,959
Speaker 3: performing like whatever, and I'm I always try and I'm like,

643
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 3: that's just the name, the name of the game we're

644
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 3: posting every day. Not everything's going to hit. And I

645
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 3: think you also have to be, you know, mentally prepared

646
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 3: for that too. That it's very high and low the

647
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:43,440
Speaker 3: business of it, you know, and you go to these

648
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 3: exciting events and then it's over and then you're like

649
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 3: it's just.

650
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: And then someone more exciting events are the comparison. I

651
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 1: also think the comparison.

652
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 3: Is a big thing, like you really have to like, like,

653
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,440
Speaker 3: it's taken me a long time. I feel like now

654
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 3: I'm in a place where i'm just like very very

655
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,440
Speaker 3: like good and very like just happy with where I'm

656
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 3: at and just feel so much gratitude for it and

657
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 3: I love.

658
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: It so much.

659
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 3: But it's taken a lot to get here because it's

660
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 3: like it's it's not it's definitely not for the week.

661
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,760
Speaker 2: I am deeply in a place of It also took

662
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,160
Speaker 2: me a very long time, especially because I'm not a

663
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,680
Speaker 2: huge creator and my platform has always been based off

664
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,360
Speaker 2: other people, which I which I love in so many ways.

665
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:27,960
Speaker 2: And I did it like that on purpose and I

666
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 2: wanted it like that, but I also was like, I'm

667
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:33,920
Speaker 2: irrelevant to it. And on days that was amazing and

668
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:35,640
Speaker 2: on days it wasn't. But right now I'm like, I

669
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:36,600
Speaker 2: just want I.

670
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 1: Only want what wants me exactly.

671
00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,959
Speaker 2: You know what, if not one person wants me at

672
00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 2: their event, I don't.

673
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 1: I don't want to be a single one if yeah,

674
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 1: you're not missing anything ever.

675
00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 2: And a show, if I'm not wanted there, I don't

676
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:51,720
Speaker 2: want to be there. Like I just like want to

677
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:53,960
Speaker 2: be where people want me. And it's like, exactly, if

678
00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,640
Speaker 2: an opportunity doesn't want me, but it wants six of

679
00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 2: my friends who we hang out with all the time,

680
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 2: but they are all wanted, I'm not on my I

681
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 2: just don't want to be where I'm not wanted. That's

682
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 2: like very and a brand event, you are literally never

683
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,480
Speaker 2: missing anything, never missing any I've never had anything incredible.

684
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 1: But I'm sorry, I'm so grateful to be no, no, no,

685
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 1: totally no the best.

686
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 3: Actually my favorite, my favorite brand event was last year

687
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 3: during Kashimonika is Why a Cell beauty party and Kesha performed.

688

691
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 3: I actually like wasn't like was I.

692
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:36,560
Speaker 2: I do think the one resort there's performance.

693
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 3: There was, but Kesha performed, and I'm like, I love Kesha,

694
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 3: like I used to love Kesha when I was younger,

695
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 3: and she took my martini glass like she was singing,

696
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 3: and she like grabbed it and she drank my dirty

697
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,479
Speaker 3: martini and that was iconic. I always there, there are

698
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 3: I will say those some events like yeah, you're never

699
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 3: missing anything.

700
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 1: But I genuinely do think there's a performance. Also, like

00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,680
Speaker 3: always feel so grateful to be in these rooms, even

705
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 3: if it's not the most fun thing. I still like

706
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 3: I think also like what I'm doing right now is

707
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:17,920

708
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:19,600
Speaker 3: like I look at my life every day and like

709
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 3: I can't believe it because I'm like it's everything I

716
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,280
Speaker 2: to like appreciate the things where I'm wanted and.

00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly. Okay, I want to talk to you a

722
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 2: little bit about moving to New York and then a

723
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 2: little bit about moving to Paris, because I think girls leaving.

724
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 2: I am the biggest advocate for women getting out there,

725
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 2: not staying in your hometown, moving, traveling, living, god, doing

726
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 2: the thing and doing it by yourself. I have never

727
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 2: had the balls to move to Europe, and I've always

728
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 2: wanted to and have always wanted to live in Paris,

729
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 2: and then you did it, and I was like, I'm

730
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 2: feeling so inspired by so called every girl in New

731
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 2: York was talking about how you weren't here.

732
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 1: By the way, it was like a discussion. I felt missed.

733
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 1: You were very missed, I was like.

734
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:20,240
Speaker 3: And then I got back and it's like, yeah, no,

735
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,160
Speaker 3: I'm very lucky. I have such a great community in

736
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:25,520
Speaker 3: New York. Moving to New York was like my dream

737
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 3: since I was five years old, and I grew up

738
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 3: spending a lot. Like I mentioned, I spent my summers

739
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 3: here with my mom and all of her people. I

740
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 3: have so many family and family friends here, and I'm

741
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:41,719
Speaker 3: so grateful to my mom for bringing me every summer

742
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 3: because she always made New York like a big part

743
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 3: of my life, and it it felt as much home

744
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 3: as Seattle did. I felt even more connected to New

745
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 3: York than Seattle. Honestly, I feel so much more connected

746
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 3: to New York than I feel so much more connected

747
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 3: to it. And it was just like when I moved here,

748
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,920
Speaker 3: everyone in my life was like Sophie's coming home, Like

749
00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 3: it was just like New York is. It was in

750
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 3: my blood from the start, and moving to New York

751
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,920
Speaker 3: was I always knew I was going to do it,

752
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 3: but I never knew it would be this amazing. And

753
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 3: I think when I got here, I just like blossomed

754
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 3: because it's like I was kind of waiting my whole

755
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:18,799
Speaker 3: life for this moment and I just, you know, we

756
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 3: talked about it, like I said yes. Like when I

757
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 3: first moved here, I said yes to everything. Like I

758
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:26,000
Speaker 3: don't leave the house without running into at least like

759
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 3: ten people I know, and.

760
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:28,320
Speaker 1: It brings me so much joy.

761
00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,839
Speaker 3: Like I'm walking down Prince Street and I'll like run

762
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 3: into a random person from this walk of life, this

763
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 3: walk of life, and then like I'll have like a fan.

764
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,640
Speaker 3: Like it's just like I love the community of New

765
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:41,880
Speaker 3: York because it's such a big city, but it's become

766
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,760
Speaker 3: small to me, and I think that's like a product

767
00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 3: of like me putting myself out there. I think with

768
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,799
Speaker 3: New York, what you put in, you get out. And

769
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,880
Speaker 3: then Paris was I mean, what.

770
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:55,959
Speaker 2: Pushed you to go to like really bite the bullet

771
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 2: and be like Paris was.

772
00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:58,800
Speaker 1: Just it's actually so crazy.

773
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:00,600
Speaker 3: I found like a journal from when I was studying

774
00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 3: abroad in college, and I wrote for my Paris trip,

775
00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:04,840
Speaker 3: I'm like, I'd love to live here one day, but

776
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:09,640
Speaker 3: I in my adult life, like I just started going

777
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 3: to Paris a lot. I went actually with Jess, my

778
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,040
Speaker 3: best friend Jess. We did like a girl's trip like

779
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 3: when we first met. We went the two of us,

780
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:22,200
Speaker 3: and then I went for my twenty fifth birthday. We

781
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:27,360
Speaker 3: went back for Jess's baucherette, and then that summer I

782
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,720
Speaker 3: decided to when Jess was planning for boucherette, I decided

783
00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,479
Speaker 3: to book a one way flight. Everyone was just going

784
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,319
Speaker 3: to Paris, and I was like, you know what, I

785
00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:37,799
Speaker 3: want to like manifest like some trips for myself. I'm

786
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:39,319
Speaker 3: just going to book the one way flight. And then

787
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 3: I ended up going to Paris going on a couple

788
00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:44,760
Speaker 3: other trips, and then while I was still in Europe,

789
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:46,319
Speaker 3: I was like while I was on that trip, I

790
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:47,920
Speaker 3: was like, I need some time alone here. So I

791
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 3: went back alone to Paris for a few days and

792
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,120
Speaker 3: I was staying in this like random airbnb, and I

793
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,000
Speaker 3: just remember I was looking out the window and I

794
00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 3: was like, I want this for myself. At like, I

795
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 3: was like, I really want to spend a summer here.

796
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,439
Speaker 3: It was never like and I'll get into it later.

797
00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's like a place that I'm

798
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,120
Speaker 3: gonna I don't think I'm going to give ever, like

799
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 3: fully move out of New York to go to Paris

800
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,240
Speaker 3: full time, but who knows. But I just had this feeling.

801
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 3: I was like, I need to do it. Was just

802
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:18,400
Speaker 3: like a gut feeling. I really think also in your twenties,

803
00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:21,520
Speaker 3: so I don't like listen to those gut feelings. They

804
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:23,840
Speaker 3: tell you everything about what you need to do in

805
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 3: your life.

806
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,279
Speaker 1: But I was just like, I'd really love to do this.

807
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,640
Speaker 3: And then I got back from that summer, I like

808
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,239
Speaker 3: signed up for French classes, which, by the way, I

809
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 3: epically feel I don't really speak French.

810
00:36:35,160 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, everyone asks either like how's French. I'm like, no,

811
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 1: it didn't very hard. It's so hard, and I honestly

812
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 1: didn't have the time to commit to it one day.

813
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:45,120
Speaker 1: But I don't know.

814
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:47,320
Speaker 3: I just had that gut feeling. And then I was

815
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:50,440
Speaker 3: talking to my I was once again the logistics of

816
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 3: it all. I was talking to my parents. I'm like,

817
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:53,719
Speaker 3: I really want to do this, and then it just

818
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 3: kind of worked out. My least was ending my roommate

819
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,360
Speaker 3: at the time, Lauren, she wanted to move out of

820
00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:03,400
Speaker 3: the apartment and our least was ending in May I

821
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 3: had posted about moving to Paris a couple times, and

822
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 3: then an apartment in Paris, the sickest apartment fell into

823
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 3: my lap like a follower of mine, like DM me

824
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,399
Speaker 3: and was like, hey, I saw your maybe moving to Paris.

825
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:15,200
Speaker 1: Do you have a place yet?

826
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:18,040
Speaker 3: I stayed in the best apartment, so this apartment fell

827
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:20,680
Speaker 3: into my lap. All of the logistics just kind of

828
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:23,320
Speaker 3: started working out. I think, like my whole life is

829
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 3: a mixture of like manifestation and dreams, and then like

830
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:27,879
Speaker 3: what are the pieces I need to get there?

831
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 1: So I don't know.

832
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,760
Speaker 3: It was just a gut feeling. I felt the universe

833
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 3: calling me to it, and I just made it happen

834
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:37,960
Speaker 3: and it was the best.

835
00:37:38,560 --> 00:37:39,799
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was the best thing.

836
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:41,640
Speaker 3: I get like emotional thinking about it because it was

837
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,520
Speaker 3: just like magical, like the summer. It was like the

838
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:48,399
Speaker 3: most magical experience. And I mean I was just having

839
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 3: the time of my life, which is amazing. And that's

840
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 3: another great thing about content is being able to do

841
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 3: something like that. And I was definitely working a lot less,

842
00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,360
Speaker 3: but I had prepared for that too. I had prepared

843
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 3: going in knowing I wasn't going to get as much

844
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:03,719
Speaker 3: brand deals like I had saved up a bunch of

845
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:07,279
Speaker 3: money so that like I could do this, and the

846
00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:09,320
Speaker 3: apartment thing worked out because I put all my stuff

847
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:09,840
Speaker 3: in storage.

848
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 1: I wasn't paying for New York rent. I was just

849
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,320
Speaker 1: paying for Paris rent, which is cheaper.

850
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 3: But anyways, it also just showed me. I think the

851
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,440
Speaker 3: experience itself was amazing. I learned so much about myself.

852
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:24,280
Speaker 3: I think doing a big adventure like that by yourself

853
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,400
Speaker 3: just pushes you in so many ways outside of your

854
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:31,880
Speaker 3: comfort zone. I had so many like experiences that like

855
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 3: I don't think I would I always have in like

856
00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,279
Speaker 3: my normal New York life when you're just like in

857
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,360
Speaker 3: the groove of things with the same people, you know, Like,

858
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 3: I met so many people and like just it was

859
00:38:44,600 --> 00:38:46,959
Speaker 3: just like amazing and it really pushes you. I feel

860
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,960
Speaker 3: like I got to know myself so much. And I

861
00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 3: also love the lifestyle there. It's a bit simpler of

862
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,279
Speaker 3: a life, I will say the New York. I mean,

863
00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:58,120
Speaker 3: Paris is still like a big, energetic city, but especially

864
00:38:58,160 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 3: in the summer, it's just like, I don't know, people

865
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 3: just like live there a little bit more.

866
00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:03,879
Speaker 2: Do you feel like you learned things about yourself while

867
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:05,840
Speaker 2: you were there? Did it change the way you saw yourself?

868
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:08,320
Speaker 3: And yeah, I think I just like, I think I

869
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 3: learned this whole. I think I learned first of all,

870
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,680
Speaker 3: that I just like am such a life lover, like

871
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,280
Speaker 3: I love to live life. And I think I've always

872
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 3: been like such a career driven like goals, goals, goals,

873
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 3: but being in Paris and just like it was one

874
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,880
Speaker 3: of the only experiences that I went into with no expectations,

875
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 3: Like everyone's like.

876
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:30,040
Speaker 1: Why are you doing this? Like is it for work?

877
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:30,920
Speaker 1: Is it for this?

878
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:32,360
Speaker 3: And I was just like, I don't know, I'm just

879
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:36,279
Speaker 3: doing it for my own enjoyment. And I think, like

880
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 3: I had no expectations from it, and it was I

881
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,319
Speaker 3: just learned so much that like that is the way

882
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,839
Speaker 3: that life should be lived, is like just to enjoy

883
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:47,000
Speaker 3: it every day. And I think I really learned that,

884
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:50,279
Speaker 3: like I just like enjoy the little things so much,

885
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:54,200
Speaker 3: and I learned that I just like, I think I'm

886
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,919
Speaker 3: just so independent, Like I learned. I'm like I cause

887
00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 3: everyone's like I could not do that, Like how the

888
00:39:58,560 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 3: fuck were you?

889
00:39:59,080 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 1: Like making friends?

890
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:01,879
Speaker 3: I've alway wanted to do it, but yeah, you can't,

891
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 3: scared you can and yeah, and when I first got there,

892
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:08,080
Speaker 3: I was like, why am I here, Like I don't

893
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:09,800
Speaker 3: know anyone, what am I going to do all summer?

894
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:11,800
Speaker 3: But every day I just woke up had something to

895
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 3: look forward to, and then it just I don't know,

896
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 3: it just and I think more than anything, that experience

897
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:19,719
Speaker 3: showed me, like actually picking up and doing it and

898
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:21,960
Speaker 3: making it happen for myself really showed me that, like

899
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,279
Speaker 3: you can do anything you want, like you can make

900
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:28,640
Speaker 3: all of your dreams come true, Like you can make

901
00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 3: these things happen for yourself. And it just showed me that, like, okay,

902
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,920
Speaker 3: like the sky's the limit. Like I moved to Paris

903
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,160
Speaker 3: for a three month, like and it's cool now because

904
00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 3: Paris has become such a big part of my life

905
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 3: and it's like I have like a little community in Paris,

906
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:44,200
Speaker 3: and it's just like I feel like I was just

907
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 3: there with some friends actually on a birthday trip, and

908
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:50,359
Speaker 3: everyone's like, oh my gosh, like you you go into

909
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 3: these stores you know everyone. I'm like, yeah, like I

910
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 3: lived here. Like the thing about me too, is like

911
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 3: when I move somewhere, like like I'm immersing myself in

912
00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 3: the community. And I shouldn't say that as somebody who

913
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:06,600
Speaker 3: did not fully learn to speak French. But I'm immersing,

914
00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 3: I you know, I'm I'm I'm immersing myself in the

915
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 3: ways that I can. And I also I am such

916
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:17,279
Speaker 3: a people person. I live to connect with people. So yeah,

917
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 3: it just yeah, it really showed me. I'm like, wow,

918
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 3: I can really make anything happen herself. And now like

919
00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:26,520
Speaker 3: Paris is such a big part of my brand as

920
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,920
Speaker 3: like a creator too, which is so cool because I'm like, oh,

921
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,319
Speaker 3: going to Paris is good for my job because now

922
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 3: my community like likes to see me in Paris. It's

923
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:38,759
Speaker 3: like a part of my whole like story. So yeah,

924
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 3: it was a really life changing experience. Do you feel

925
00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 3: like your style changed when you were there?

926
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:46,880
Speaker 1: My style changes, I do because I'm like, I'm not

927
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,480
Speaker 1: cool at all. I've never been cool. I've never seen cool.

928
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:50,320
Speaker 1: Cool doesn't know me.

929
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 2: I've never been near cool. When I see those girls.

930
00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:54,520
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my god, I'm oh yeah. I mean

931
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 1: the people.

932
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:56,920
Speaker 3: I always I think New York has the best, Like

933
00:41:57,520 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 3: like people in New York like love fashion, Like it's

934
00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 3: like people just like appreciate like fun, crazy personal style.

935
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 3: But in Paris, I'm just like, oh, it's so fucking chic,

936
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:11,239
Speaker 3: Like these people they're just like so it's so effortless there,

937
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:14,319
Speaker 3: And I think that really inspired me because I think

938
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:18,000
Speaker 3: in New York, especially in this influencer community, when we're

939
00:42:18,280 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 3: getting dressed every day and you always feel like you

940
00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,640
Speaker 3: have to like throw out something insane. When I was

941
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:25,480
Speaker 3: in Paris, I was so inspired by like this effortlessness

942
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 3: chic of like the five minute like ever, I don't

943
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,080
Speaker 3: even like I wasn't even thinking about getting dressed. I

944
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 3: just like threw on what felt comfortable, I know, like

945
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:37,480
Speaker 3: the baggiest, craziest like and I just like wear like

946
00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 3: I was just like running around in like a slip

947
00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 3: dress in ballet flats, like no bra like it just

948
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:45,000
Speaker 3: like I don't know. It definitely influenced my style and

949
00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:47,960
Speaker 3: I think I've brought that coming back here where I'm like,

950
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,560
Speaker 3: I don't it's actually like I don't need to try

951
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:52,920
Speaker 3: so hard all the time. Like it's actually cooler to

952
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 3: just like lean into what you like are naturally drawn to.

953
00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:59,200
Speaker 3: Like and yeah, when I was washing my hair when

954
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 3: I'm there and I living in Paris, and like, also

955
00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:04,680
Speaker 3: the women are so natural, which like natural makeup, natural

00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,440
Speaker 3: like it's just so I don't know, I was so

00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,320
Speaker 3: And also, like the shopping in Paris is out of control.

958

Speaker 1: They're capable. They're yeah, and they're ambitious.

964
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,080

965
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,240
Speaker 2: collected and they're calm and they get their point across

966
00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,160
Speaker 2: in such a chic way. And then they're dress chic

967
00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:35,359
Speaker 2: and they don't need.

Speaker 3: when I'm in Paris that it.

974
00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:54,000
Speaker 2: Just there's like a confidence amongst the women that rubs

975
00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 2: off on you. And I feel like I don't care

976
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:56,799
Speaker 2: what I'm wearing, so I'm like, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 1: I look good. Everyone looks good. We're cool. Yeah, that's

978
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:03,000
Speaker 1: what we're matter. I just want to be in Paris

979
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,680
Speaker 1: on the bike, living my best life every day.

980
00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 2: I love. Is there anything you would say to someone

981
00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,480
Speaker 2: like myself that really wants to do it but is

982
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:24,279
Speaker 2: feels like it's terrifying, Like is there something you would

983
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 2: say to a girl like me?

984
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:28,160
Speaker 3: Yes, I would say, And my mom said this to

985
00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:30,040
Speaker 3: me when I was younger, and it always stuck out

986
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,800
Speaker 3: to me. Is that life begins outside of your comfort

987
00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:36,879
Speaker 3: zone and the scariest things end up being the best

988
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,000
Speaker 3: things in your life. You know, like think about like

989
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:41,799
Speaker 3: you starting this show and ended up being the best,

990
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:43,640
Speaker 3: probably one of the best things you've ever done.

991
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 1: And I think I've ever done for myself without Yeah,

992
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:47,520
Speaker 1: And I think, like.

993
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:52,440
Speaker 3: It just like taking risks like that so scary, but

994
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:55,640
Speaker 3: the scariest things you just always end up being the best.

995
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:56,560
Speaker 1: And even if it.

996
00:44:56,640 --> 00:45:00,160
Speaker 3: Doesn't work out exactly how you wanted to or you know,

997
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:02,960
Speaker 3: even if it you even if you got to Paris

998
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 3: and you got we're there for a week and you

999
00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 3: hated it and you didn't like the experience of being

1000
00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:10,880
Speaker 3: in a new country by yourself, like you never know

1001
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,480
Speaker 3: until you don't, if you don't try. And I think

1002
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,480
Speaker 3: also just like if it's I think I just I

1003
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 3: really encourage women too, Like, if there's something you want

1004
00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:20,320
Speaker 3: to do, go out and do it.

1005
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:22,120
Speaker 1: Like I always say, like fight for it.

1006
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:26,280
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter but your financial position or what access

1007
00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:29,320
Speaker 2: you have, maybe Paris isn't in your reach. But like,

1008
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:31,920
Speaker 2: if that's something you want, do something to fight for it,

1009
00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 2: Like fight for what, fight for it always, because no

1010
00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:36,640
Speaker 2: one's gonna come fight for it for you. No one's

1011
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 2: going to start a fund for you, gonna drag you

1012
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:40,120
Speaker 2: out there.

1013
00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:41,759
Speaker 1: Just fight for it.

1014
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 2: And even if you only move the needle a little bit,

1015
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:48,520
Speaker 2: you have done something for yourself and you're empowering yourself

1016
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:51,400
Speaker 2: to be like I have some level of control in

1017
00:45:51,480 --> 00:45:54,320
Speaker 2: my life, and I just say, like, whatever it is

1018
00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:56,400
Speaker 2: you want to do, I'm such a big proponent of

1019
00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:57,600
Speaker 2: this is like, fight for it.

1020
00:45:57,719 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't care what it is. I don't if

1021
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,000
Speaker 1: it's a shirt that you want.

1022
00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:04,239
Speaker 2: That you can exactly, an exact restaurant you want to

1023
00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:06,000
Speaker 2: go to that you can't get a reservation to, or

1024
00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:08,600
Speaker 2: a city you want to move to, like fight fight

1025
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:11,239
Speaker 2: for that. There's a job you want that you'd fight

1026
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:13,359
Speaker 2: for and at least move the needle the teeniest bit

1027
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:16,080
Speaker 2: because at least you can say you put something into it,

1028
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:17,960
Speaker 2: and at least you can say you did something for yourself,

1029
00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:19,879
Speaker 2: and at least you can tell say that you're worth

1030
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:20,520
Speaker 2: it to yourself.

1031
00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 3: I one hundred percent agree, and like trust those gut feelings.

1032
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:28,000
Speaker 3: Like those gut feelings are guidance for you. And if

1033
00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:30,080
Speaker 3: you have a gut feeling that you want to do something,

1034
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:32,520
Speaker 3: whether it's moved to Paris or whatever it is that

1035
00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:34,480
Speaker 3: you want to do, follow it like the unit, Like

1036
00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:37,760
Speaker 3: you know yourself better than anyone in this world.

1037
00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:40,120
Speaker 1: And also what I will say too is like.

1038
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:45,239
Speaker 3: Everyone's doing like you got to live life for you,

1039
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,919
Speaker 3: Like there's no right way to do life. I've really

1040
00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:51,640
Speaker 3: learned in my twenties. It's like you need to like

1041
00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:53,719
Speaker 3: the way that you're going to be happiest is to

1042
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,440
Speaker 3: create a life that like is for you and like

1043
00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:57,520
Speaker 3: just do the things you want.

1044
00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:00,239
Speaker 2: And I've never seen a man ever in my entire life,

1045
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:02,160
Speaker 2: so that he can't do something because of he can't

1046
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,160
Speaker 2: get access to it, he doesn't have the privilege for it,

1047
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:05,600
Speaker 2: he doesn't have forty doesn't have them.

1048
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:06,960
Speaker 1: He forty's too afraid to do it.

1049
00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:10,120
Speaker 3: One hundred percent, then just be doing things one hundred percent,

1050
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:12,440
Speaker 3: and it's like even some things like one of my

1051
00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:16,040
Speaker 3: best friends, Lauren, Like this is such a random story,

1052
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:19,000
Speaker 3: but we were upstate last weekend and she was like,

1053
00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:20,480
Speaker 3: oh my gosh, like I really want to have like

1054
00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:23,440
Speaker 3: a cabin upstate, Like that's her thing. That's her like

1055
00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:26,600
Speaker 3: moving to Paris. And it's like that's obviously not She's

1056
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:28,720
Speaker 3: not going to like turn around and buy a house tomorrow.

1057
00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:31,320
Speaker 3: But like me and my friends this past weekend, we

1058
00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:33,880
Speaker 3: were talking about the concept of like marinating on ideas

1059
00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:36,600
Speaker 3: and like even if you can't execute it like right now,

1060
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:40,040
Speaker 3: like hold on to that and like do something every

1061
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:41,319
Speaker 3: day to work towards it, like.

1062
00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:43,319
Speaker 1: Just for a little bit, fight for it a little

1063
00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:45,400
Speaker 1: bit and like see where it goes. Like for me,

1064
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:47,839
Speaker 1: like I want to open a vintage store one day,

1065
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,760
Speaker 1: Oh that's and it's like that's happening.

1066
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:54,400
Speaker 2: I'm we're basically at the grand opening. That's yeah, that's easy.

1067
00:47:54,880 --> 00:47:57,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's not going to happen like tomorrow. But

1068
00:47:57,560 --> 00:48:00,840
Speaker 3: it's like if you really want something and go make.

1069
00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:03,440
Speaker 1: It happen, you're doing that. I can't wait. Do you

1070
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:03,839
Speaker 1: have a name?

1071
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:06,279
Speaker 3: No, it's just it's not something I want to do

1072
00:48:06,560 --> 00:48:09,279
Speaker 3: right at this second, because it's I mean, it's going

1073
00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:11,480
Speaker 3: to be your mother, literally, You're.

1074
00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:14,640
Speaker 1: Literally literally And I love that my mom has a

1075
00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:15,359
Speaker 1: vintage store too.

1076
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:18,879
Speaker 2: So yeah, okay, last question that I've asked you five

1077
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:21,759
Speaker 2: billion times already, but Sophy Cohen, who do you think

1078
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:22,560

Speaker 1: And why does she inspire you? Oh so many?

1080
00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:28,560
Speaker 3: I feel, like I said this last time, I'm going

1081
00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:31,280
Speaker 3: to give too. I think my mom is the ultimate

1082
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:36,320
Speaker 3: IT girl because she is just the most. She's badass,

1083
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,680
Speaker 3: but she's the most kind and loving person and I

1084
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:42,640
Speaker 3: think that's what I've taken from her. And I think

1085
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:46,880
Speaker 3: kindness is the most IT girl quality ever. Being a

1086
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:50,160
Speaker 3: good person and being kind and making people feel seen

1087
00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:53,279
Speaker 3: is like the best quality an IT girl can have,

1088
00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:58,800
Speaker 3: Like I really really believe. Just yeah, And I'm like,

1089
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:02,239
Speaker 3: my mom has always has been someone who makes people

1090
00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:05,160
Speaker 3: feel really good about themselves and I does. And that's

1091
00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:07,880
Speaker 3: like what I hope to do with my page. But

1092
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:09,960
Speaker 3: I think when it comes to style, my style icon

1093
00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:13,600
Speaker 3: is Carrie Bradshaw. It's basic, but like I I have

1094
00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:16,320
Speaker 3: so much shit that she has, like she is. I

1095
00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:19,920
Speaker 3: just that her sense of style in that show is

1096
00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:21,799
Speaker 3: like the most like I feel like I don't really

1097
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:24,279
Speaker 3: I have never I like because I have such a

1098
00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:27,880
Speaker 3: dividual style. I don't resonate so much with any certain

1099
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:31,359
Speaker 3: like person, but with her, like everything, it's just I've

1100
00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:35,560
Speaker 3: been so inspired by her. ES's just so unapologetic, so unapologetic,

1101

Speaker 3: and the Fendy bag get the Manolo heels, like it's
