00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:24,919

00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:30,160
Speaker 1: just very fun and exciting and very like magical. It was.

96
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 1: It was so beautiful, um, and so I'm glad I

97
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 1: got to run. It wasn't through the National Park, but

98
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,840
Speaker 1: it was like by proximity, like right by the National Park,

99
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: right up to the entrance, right up to the entrance,

100
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 1: So it was really beautiful. And yeah, I'm glad I

101
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 1: got to experience it with you and our friends and

102
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 1: like everything, it was so great. You ran a PR.

103
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 1: I ran a PR. I like set my personal record,

104
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,160
Speaker 1: which was so exciting because my running coach. I hired

105
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 1: a running coach for this training round. I like ran

106
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 1: my first one so low, no no running coach, and

107
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,039
Speaker 1: so I just wanted to compare and see the difference.

108
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: And so I hired a running coach and she just

109
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 1: basically flat out was like, look the PR that we

110
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: had like wanted to reach, Like it might not be

111
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: realistic because you're there's like you're like four thousand feet

112
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 1: above sea level. There's gonna be like some incline. It

113
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,760
Speaker 1: might not be possible. It's going to be very cold,

114
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: you know, like your body might be realistically go into shocks.

115
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 1: So so like kind of set your expectations low, and

116
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: so I did. And so when I set my expectations low,

117
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 1: and I was like, you know what, it was going

118
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: to run and feel good and just see what happens,

119
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: and and that's it. I'm just going to focus on

120
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: feeling good. And then I you know, I met my

121
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: goal time and then lowered it and so I like

122
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 1: finished at two hours in nineteen and my goal was

123
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: to twenty and that's the goal that my coach was like,

124
00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: that might not happen. And so when I passed the

125
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: twenty pacer, you know there's like pacers per mile grew

126
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,160
Speaker 1: or per finished time, And when I passed the two

127
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 1: twenty pacers, I like immediately started crying because I was like,

128
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 1: oh my god, I'm like doing this, Like it's like

129
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: if I'm finishing faster than two twenty. So it was amazing.

130
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: And then Mama was there and like, you know, just

131
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 1: hearing her little scream while I while I was running through.

132
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: It was like such a daze. It was amazing. It

133
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: was really cool. I was like I was like cheering

134
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 1: up because I was so excited for you. I was like,

166
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 1: is so dry alcohol wise, like nobody's drinking, there's no alcohol,

167
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:23,320
Speaker 1: but they're getting slashed every episode. And then there's this

261
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,080

Speaker 1: of your podcasts that same nine. I was like so hooked.

263
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,480
Speaker 1: I was like, they're great. They literally are going through

264
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 1: the same thing that I'm going through, and I could

265
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 1: and I could really relate to it because being first

266
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:08,479
Speaker 1: gen going to a p W I and you know,

267
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 1: going back home and like it was just like a

268
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 1: big culture shock already, and it was just really it

269
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 1: felt great to see that there was another, like other

270
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 1: people out there experiencing the same thing that was experiencing

271
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: because it was so hard to say it in words

272
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:25,440
Speaker 1: or put in words that y'all I would literally talk

273
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: about all the time on your podcast at that time,

274
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 1: which I really loved a lot. So that's how we

275
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,719
Speaker 1: met at an event in my school that y'all had

276
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 1: to talk and I and I still have the photo too.

277
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,119
Speaker 1: I remember exactly what I was wearing. I was wearing

278
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 1: this like green mesh seed through long sleep with like

279
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:47,160
Speaker 1: I believe, like my Eliah T shirt and some distressed genes. Yes,

280
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 1: I still had the photo too, because I remember when

281
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 1: the four of us took the photo, I was like, Wow,

282
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 1: this is like the best photo we've ever taken. You

283
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:03,879
Speaker 1: would have fall. Everyone was glowing like fabulous, a beautiful photo,

284
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:05,400
Speaker 1: and I was like, while we're going to post this

285
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 1: one for sure, um, because you know what it's like

286
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 1: being in those university rooms, like the lighting is not

287
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 1: cute and you feel kind of icky sometimes, and so

288
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 1: it was definitely a beautiful photo. Memorable for us because

289
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 1: we met you and then we kept up with your

290
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 1: your work, your career and after school after you graduated,

291
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 1: what did you what did you work on? What were

292
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 1: you what was your focus? Yeah, So after I graduated,

293
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 1: I gret I created my major in public health and

294
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 1: community health. So I created my own major at Picture

295
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,159
Speaker 1: that allowed you to do that, which was like really amazing. UM.

296
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 1: And what I did afterwards is I became a sexual

297
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 1: health educator at a nonprofit, which was really amazing. I

298
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:56,400
Speaker 1: had a really great experience. UM. I worked in schools

299
00:18:56,440 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: at l a U s D. And I taught sex

300
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 1: health in middle schools and high schools, and I also

301
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 1: lead um basically pure health leadership programs around those schools.

302
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 1: And the reason why I also got that job too

303
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:13,600
Speaker 1: was because when I was in high school, I did

304
00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 1: that same program but as a student. But now I was,

305
00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:19,720
Speaker 1: you know, like working, I was a little bit of

306
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 1: a baby adult, and I was leading those those programs,

307
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 1: and I was teaching sex said and talking about the

308
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 1: difference between gender and sex and sexuality and trying to

309
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: have you know, really honest conversations on sexual health and

310
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 1: also making sure, I'm providing a safe space for these

311
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: like young adults, like students that have so many questions

312
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,440
Speaker 1: but they're too scared to ask or don't know where

313
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:49,680
Speaker 1: to go. And and that was my job. I did

314
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,440
Speaker 1: that for about maybe two years. But before I got

315
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 1: that job, I was a pure health educator at my

316
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,360
Speaker 1: college for about three years. So I was already doing

317
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 1: sexual health education since forever and before that in high

318
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 1: school too, so I was kind of seasoned a little bit.

319
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 1: You were very well seasoned, clearly very well seasoned, and

320
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,880
Speaker 1: our paths crossed yet again ye at the sexual health

321
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 1: summit because you were sex educating. I was sex educating.

322
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 1: And I remember Jens sitting there in front of your

323
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 1: boss at the time, and I was like, Jen, you

324
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:27,360
Speaker 1: need to be a full time model. Quit your job

325
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,680
Speaker 1: with this job and do content full time and model

326
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,800
Speaker 1: full time. And you're and you were like, like, my

327
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 1: boss is right here. But she was like, no, it's true.

328
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:41,560
Speaker 1: She's like, no, it's true. You should Oh yeah it is.

329
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: Because at that time I was still working at the

330
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: nonprofit and stuff, and my co workers I still love

331
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: them to this day, like, honestly, like I was really

332
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,560
Speaker 1: lucky to have really great coworkers because they still are like, Jenn,

333
00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,400
Speaker 1: you're doing so great all of this. And I remember

334
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,359
Speaker 1: at that time, I was still you know, I was

335
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 1: kind of getting my feet with to modeling. So I

336
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 1: would kind of model sometimes obviously not not fully, but

337
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 1: whenever I could get a job on the weekends, I would,

338
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,760
Speaker 1: you know, model, or I would make content. But I'll

339
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 1: make content like on my own time. And if you know,

340
00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: working nonprofit is really exhausting. Um, you literally are working,

341
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: you know, nine to five, but you are still your work.

342
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 1: You have literally so many you are different hats basically,

343
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 1: and you kind of have to be very flexible. I

344
00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:31,719
Speaker 1: love when they use that you have to be flexible

345
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:37,639
Speaker 1: is definitely a nonprofit word. Oh yeah, different hats for

346
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,679
Speaker 1: all the nonprofit people out there. I see you. I

347
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 1: love y'all. I hope you're all doing okay and taking

348
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 1: time and self caring as much as y'all can. Okay,

349
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 1: we're in solidarity. Yeah, we are in one thou percent

350
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:55,120
Speaker 1: as folks that have survived the nonprofit industrial complex as well.

351
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,920
Speaker 1: It sounds like you had a very good experience though

352
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:02,879
Speaker 1: unlike us, but still doesn't mean it wasn't tiring. And

353
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: exhausting and all of that stuff as well. Um, so

354
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 1: let's talk about this transition. So you were a sexual

355
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:12,400
Speaker 1: health educator for many years, very well seasoned, and then

356
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:16,720
Speaker 1: you make this jump to be a full time creative model,

357
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:22,439
Speaker 1: creative director, all of the above. How was that taking

358
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 1: that leap? Taking that jump? Oh my god? It honestly

359
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: it's it's honestly kind of wildhood all happened because I

360
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 1: wasn't expecting to ever do something full time. You know.

361
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:37,639
Speaker 1: I always thought, like, you know, I had to have

362
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,800
Speaker 1: a nine five, like, you know, I just have to

363
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: have it, and then this is just kind of like

364
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: my side stuff. But then during quarantine, you know, everything

365
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 1: really shifted, really shifted. So during when we were in quarantine,

366
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 1: you know, I still had to work a lot on

367
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:59,360
Speaker 1: a nonprofit job. And then I get hit up by

368
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 1: full Locker for Locker Women and Nike Women and to

369
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 1: be like, hey, um, would you want to be a

370
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: creator for for us? You'll be basically like paid monthly

371
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,200
Speaker 1: to create stuff for us, and we would really love

372
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,640
Speaker 1: you to be a part of this. And I interviewed

373
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 1: for it. They interviewed me first, and they loved me

374
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: because I mean then it just felt perfect, Like obviously,

375
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 1: but it just felt perfect. That was like okay, And

376
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,399
Speaker 1: I remember it was during like Cancer season two, so

377
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,440
Speaker 1: it was like during my birthday time when I got

378
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,200
Speaker 1: interviewed and I was like, I hope I get it,

379
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,199
Speaker 1: but you know, if I don't, then it's cool. I

380
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:42,200
Speaker 1: think it's just still really great that like I'm people,

381
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,399
Speaker 1: the people recognize me to be like yo, like you're

382
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:47,199
Speaker 1: kind of dope, like we kind of want you and

383
00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 1: our team. And then I got into reck Room and

384
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 1: it reck Room was a collective of creators around l

385
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,280
Speaker 1: A so women creative. So I think we were about

386
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,880
Speaker 1: we were five. I don't I'm missing anybody. Yeah, we're

387
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:05,920
Speaker 1: about five or six girls. And we were creating content

388
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,560
Speaker 1: for full Locker Women and Nike Women and we were

389
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,880
Speaker 1: getting paid monthly and we had our own space. And

390
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 1: then that's when I had to make a decision. I

391
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 1: had to make an executive decision of my life of like, Okay,

392
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 1: this is kind of a full time job and you

393
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 1: kind of already have a full time job, and it

394
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 1: was scary. It was literally I was like but to

395
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 1: be honest, at that time, working at my nonprofit job,

396
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 1: I was really burnt out, Like I was like, Okay,

397
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 1: I feel like what's keeping me here? Are like my

398
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 1: students and like my co workers that I love very

399
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 1: very much, but it's just not where it used to

400
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 1: be anymore. And that was just the reality of it.

401
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,880
Speaker 1: And I felt very conflicted because I love my job.

402
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 1: I felt like my my job is super important and

403
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 1: I knew it was really important, and I was like, I,

404
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,320
Speaker 1: I gotta do it for my community. But then I

405
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 1: was like, yo, like I gotta do this for myself.

406
00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,040
Speaker 1: And I was like and so I leaved. I it

407
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:01,919
Speaker 1: really sent in my two weeks notice and I was

408
00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:07,600
Speaker 1: like yo, like hey, um, I'm out, you know. And

409
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,159
Speaker 1: they they understood, and I feel like they kind of

410
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,680
Speaker 1: saw it coming for sure because they were aware of

411
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,199
Speaker 1: the of the opportunity that I got and they were like,

412
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,880
Speaker 1: this is definitely, this is definitely what you should be doing.

413
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, I should, like and that's the

414
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,640
Speaker 1: type of person I am. I feel like I'm very like, man,

415
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:26,880
Speaker 1: fuck it, like I'm just gonna do it, Like what's

416
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,880
Speaker 1: the worst that could happen? And I jumped and that's

417
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 1: how it all started. So that's when I was like

418
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 1: I could do this kind of full time and red

419
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 1: Room was such a really amazing experience. The team was

420
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 1: amazing because obviously it was not just us that we're,

421
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,440
Speaker 1: you know, doing content. We also had a whole team

422
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 1: behind us that made sure that, you know, the content

423
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 1: that we made was exactly what we wanted. They literally

424
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 1: would listen to everything that we would say, like, hey,

425
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 1: like I kind of wanted to be this way. I

426
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 1: kind of wanted to be that way. For last year's

427
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,639
Speaker 1: Latin next Um Heritage Month, me and j and I

428
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:04,640
Speaker 1: actually did something really huge and we directed it, which

429
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 1: was like one of our first times that we directed

430
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:12,360
Speaker 1: something this huge for full locker women, Like huh like wild.

431
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 1: That was so wild to me at that time. I

432
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 1: was just kind of like, am I director, and I life,

433
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 1: what did you direct? So it was for reck Room

434
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,000
Speaker 1: and during the time it was it was during this

435
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 1: time last year where it was like got the next

436
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 1: Heritage Month and they kind of wanted us to create

437
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:33,159
Speaker 1: something around familia and community. So UM, we kind of

438
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:36,879
Speaker 1: came together and we hired an amazing DP in Crypt

439
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, who I still work with to this day

440
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:43,119
Speaker 1: and is who is amazing DP director. Definitely check her

441
00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 1: out and we created a piece on community around sneakers too,

442
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,359
Speaker 1: and we were able to like hire our friends or

443
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:56,480
Speaker 1: not hire our friends. They came, you know, our friends

444
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 1: came in and they got showcased in the video and

445
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:03,520
Speaker 1: it was really cool. It was it was I remember

446
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,000
Speaker 1: seeing the last the last version of it, and I

447
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,479
Speaker 1: was like, oh my god, we came up with this,

448
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 1: but obviously we had help. Obviously we can't take the

449
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: whole credit, but it was still our minds were like, Wow,

450
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 1: our minds are amazing. And that's kind of how that

451
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 1: first little I guess like fire came in my head

452
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,199
Speaker 1: where I was just like, wait, I could kind of

453
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: do this and maybe I'm not just the model. And

454
00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:33,119
Speaker 1: after Recruit, when Recorom kind of wrapped up, um, you know,

455
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,119
Speaker 1: full locker, La hit me up and was like, hey, like,

456
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:39,680
Speaker 1: would you still be down to like style or would

457
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,160
Speaker 1: you still be down to creative direct? And I was like, yeah,

458
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 1: I'm down like the so ID. So then I started

459
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 1: doing styling a lot, and if y'all know me, I

460
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:54,399
Speaker 1: love clothes. I love fashion, like you know, styling, and

461
00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,200
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, I think I could do this.

462
00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 1: But once I started doing styling I realized it's another

463
00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 1: ball arc, you know, and it was something that I

464
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,080
Speaker 1: had to relearn and learn and kind of do it

465
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 1: the way that you know, professional stylists do. I'm still

466
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 1: I still wouldn't say that I'm like super professional stylists,

467
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 1: Like I'm still learning, but it was really cool that

468
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 1: I was like, Okay, I could kind of do this,

469
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,240
Speaker 1: you know, let's keep trying, let's keep you know, we'll

470
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,399
Speaker 1: we'll work on that scale. And then I got a

471
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:26,679
Speaker 1: directing gig for Pride for Adidas and foot Locker l A,

472
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 1: which was like super cool. I actually hired my friends

473
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 1: this time around, and we filmed at Alesia Park and

474
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 1: it was so beautiful, so queer, so amazing. Um, the

475
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: team was great. My best friend Daniels, a photographer and

476
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:48,040
Speaker 1: in crypt Los Angeles, also the DP and editor again

477
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 1: and it was amazing and great, and once again I

478
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 1: was like, Okay, I could do this. This is really cool,

479
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: like nice. And ever since then, I've just been kind

480
00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 1: of doing a lot of stuff. So if I'm not modeling,

481
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:07,520
Speaker 1: if I'm not creating content, I'm like styling, or I'm

482
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 1: like you know, d P and not d PIN, I'm

483
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 1: like directing or I'm act or I'm just like a

484
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:17,440
Speaker 1: production assistant. Recently, this weekend, I actually went to Mexico,

485

487
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 1: see the classical game, which is Chivas Versus America. Obviously

488
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 1: I was working, but still I was like, okay, cool,

489
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 1: And it was once again one of those moments where

490
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,240
Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, you gotta jump. You

491
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 1: might not be like, you know, maybe peeing isn't like

492
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 1: your your passion, but like just jump, like you'll learn

493
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:46,680
Speaker 1: so much. And I learned so much. I learned how

494
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: to do audio. I know how to like take down

495
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,920
Speaker 1: a camera, build a camera. Like I was like, nice, okay,

496
00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:58,440
Speaker 1: cool thing what I've been kind of doing. Honestly, I've

497
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 1: just been jumping into anything anything that obviously I feel

498
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:06,520
Speaker 1: isn't larning with myself, and yeah, I just don't. I

499
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 1: think that's my area is rising though. For sure, I'm like, man,

500
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 1: just do it. And I'm like, okay, well you're killing it.

501
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:15,280
Speaker 1: You're killing the game. You are just like an undeniable

502
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:21,040
Speaker 1: talent and like style legend, like for sure not surprised that,

503
00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,680
Speaker 1: you know, these major campaigns want you to style for them,

504
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 1: because even even you know, um, I think like years ago,

505
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 1: like it was very evident that the girl has style okay,

506
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 1: and the girl can take off. I mean it's like yeah.

507
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 1: And so to see like how far you come and

508
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:43,479
Speaker 1: the way you've developed as a professional as an artist

509
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 1: in front of the camera and behind the camera is

610
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 1: that's the thing about fashion and styling. It's like whatever

611
00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:36,480
Speaker 1: makes you feel good as long as if you make

612
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,480
Speaker 1: it yours. And it's not necessarily like a super copy

613
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:42,279
Speaker 1: because you can't copy anything if it's literally like you're

614
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:44,839
Speaker 1: like you put your own twist to it, and all

615
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:46,840
Speaker 1: you can do is pay, like to pay homage to it.

616
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:48,919
Speaker 1: So that's kind of where I get all my style from,

617
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 1: is like my mom was good, that influencer and literally

618
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:54,719
Speaker 1: the women that grew up in my community. So it's

619
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 1: kind of like a mix of everything. And it's so

620
00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:00,920
Speaker 1: funny because I feel like I can never necessarily say

621
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,040
Speaker 1: what exactly is my style because I feel like I

622
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:05,200
Speaker 1: switched it up so much and I feel like it's

623
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 1: such a mood thing. I'm such a cancer that literally

624
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,280
Speaker 1: dressed based off of my mood because my mood changes

625
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 1: all the time. Sometimes I feel like super super girly.

626
00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 1: Now we're like long skirts or whatever. But sometimes I'm

627
00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:19,319
Speaker 1: going to put some sneakers on it, you know, or

628
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:22,680
Speaker 1: sometimes they're gonna, you know, slip back my hair. It's

629
00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:26,279
Speaker 1: just you'll never know. And I think that's great. Get

630
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:29,600
Speaker 1: I always look forward to seeing like what you have

631
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:33,280
Speaker 1: new going on and like what is Jen sat looking

632
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:38,480
Speaker 1: like this week? This month? What is Jen wearing? What's

633
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:43,439
Speaker 1: the accessory? Like? How is she mixing it up? I

634
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:47,319
Speaker 1: love watching it because truly like you're putting out some

635
00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:52,759
Speaker 1: top tier content. And um, I love too because that, like,

636
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 1: I think that there's plenty of people who would look

637
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:58,360
Speaker 1: at you and be like, oh, Rihanna is Jen's fashion inspell,

638
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 1: which I totally can see that, right, But I love

639
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:05,400
Speaker 1: that you were like, no, it's great, MoMA ladies in

640
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 1: the neighborhood. I was one tho percent expecting you to

641
00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:11,239
Speaker 1: say Rihanna as one of not the but one of

642
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:14,160
Speaker 1: the insosed. I do love her though, you know, I

643
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:17,000
Speaker 1: can't ignore it, but that is you know, oh my god.

644
00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 1: I kind of like that that you'll think whenseration is

645
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 1: re re, which I feel like she inspires everybody, Like

646
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,160
Speaker 1: at this point, it's like everybody's inspired by her, So

647
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,480
Speaker 1: it's kind of like at a at a like on

648
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:31,880
Speaker 1: subconscious level, you know, you're like, oh, because she already

649
00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,319
Speaker 1: has this like that you know what I'm saying, Yeah,

Speaker 1: it's well trained is Yeah, she's got us and it's comfy.

00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 1: It's comfy here. I like it here. So, Jen, what

652
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 1: are you working on next? So I'm currently y'all are

653
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 1: getting literally the first scoop of what I've been working on.

654
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 1: So I'm actually working on a brand, yeah, called from

655
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 1: the Yeah. So it's called from the Block, and From

656
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,799
Speaker 1: the Block is going to be I'm really excited. I'm

657
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,439
Speaker 1: also really nervous just because this is my first time

658
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 1: doing something like this, but I feel like I've always

659
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:14,319
Speaker 1: wanted to have a brand of my own and just

660
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,959
Speaker 1: see where it goes. You know, I'm super excited. So

661
00:39:18,320 --> 00:39:20,400
Speaker 1: From the Block is basically another you know, I'm going

662
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,360
Speaker 1: to pay homage to my community and from literally the

663
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,400
Speaker 1: block that I grew up in, which is three to

664
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:29,719
Speaker 1: three Watts South Central, but also put a spin onto,

665
00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:33,200
Speaker 1: you know, the different identities of myself that I have

666
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,520
Speaker 1: because I know it's a lot and I'm really excited

667
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,480
Speaker 1: to share. I'm currently still working on the design. I

668
00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 1: have my logo. My logo is super super cute and

669
00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:46,040
Speaker 1: hopefully all goal live by the end of the year.

670
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:49,879
Speaker 1: You know, it takes time. It takes time, but I'm

671
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:53,360
Speaker 1: actually very fortunate that I have an amazing team of

672
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:58,799
Speaker 1: like videographers, DPS, photographers and model friends that are so

673
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 1: down and I'm very grateful and I'm and I think

674
00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 1: that's what makes it so easy and so fun to

675
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 1: be a creative full time is by surrounding yourself with

676
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 1: people that are like that love you and also want

677
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 1: to create with you. And I'm very fortunate. And some

Speaker 1: of those folks are Brandy Danny Encrypt Like I love

679
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,960

00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:26,759
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm excited. It's going to be a very

681
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:30,120
Speaker 1: really big team effort. We'll see how it goes. I

682
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:31,800
Speaker 1: kind of want to bring you on that an idea,

683
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,920
Speaker 1: but it's just like like okay, like yeah, okay, Like

684
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 1: I'm a cancer girl. I love the moon, you know,

685
00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 1: I like the moon. But these are clues? Are these

686
00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:51,400
Speaker 1: answer girl cancer icons? Moon? And that's all I'm going

687
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 1: to give. And I feel like I literally just gave

688
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:57,520
Speaker 1: it all the way. But you know I'm not catching on,

689
00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 1: But give me an hour and I'm sure something's going

690
00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:08,840

00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:14,279
Speaker 1: catching on? I may be catching on that I don't

693
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:18,440
Speaker 1: want to say because what if I'm wrong, And like

694
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:20,879
Speaker 1: I'm not ready to say yes or no. But I'll

695
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:23,240
Speaker 1: just give y'all like the you're not going to confirm

696
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:27,320
Speaker 1: or deny, right, I'm like, it's a it's a lifestyle brand,

697
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:32,600
Speaker 1: like like works. We can expect different pieces. Right now

698
00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 1: it would be apparel apparel, and it would be and

699
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:39,280
Speaker 1: then later on we'll see if you'll go into lifestyle.

700
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,600
Speaker 1: But right now it's just a pail both because I

701
00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 1: was thinking jewelry when she was like a cancer icon,

702
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:52,800
Speaker 1: like a jewelry like that. Okay, but now write that down,

703
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:58,600

704
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:03,560
Speaker 1: moon and it's a okay call. But yeah, I'm going
