You know, she's already in 231 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 1: a quote unquote and it may just be in my 232 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 1: head in a broken home. And in that moment when 233 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: I was looking around him, like, my kid's not in 234 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: a broken anything.

Because 248 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: I'm in foreign territory. I don't understand, I don't know 249 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: what to do. There are times I may get petty, 250 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 1: there are times where I may overshare. I'm processing, and 251 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 1: I try to handle things the best way I can 252 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: while also protecting my kid.

It's just 267 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 3: like people with opinions or hey, this is what I think, 268 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,000 Speaker 3: but I'm willing to change my mind if I get 269 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 3: better information. I always think those people are the smartest 270 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 3: rather than being stuck in their ways and be like, 271 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 3: this is what I believe, and I'm gonna preach it 272 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 3: and I'm gonna tune everyone else out.

You're a genius. 382 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 4: Thank you. I was working at Title at the time, 383 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 4: which is jay Z's music streaming service. I was doing 384 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 4: partnership marketing. I was a coordinator, like my second job 385 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 4: out of college, and then during COVID in the summer, 386 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:53,159 Speaker 4: I lost my job because of COVID. So I was 387 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 4: very upset, like I had this whole like my I 388 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 4: had a plan forever of like I'm going to be 389 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:02,160 Speaker 4: like this big PR marketing and whatever fashion or entertainment, 390 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 4: whatever it might be. So I was really upset when 391 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 4: I lost my job. But at the same time, I 392 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 4: think it was almost a little bit of a relief 393 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 4: because I think I convinced myself I've been happy at 394 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 4: these jobs, but like now that I'm seeing it on 395 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 4: the other side, and like I also so I don't 396 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 4: know why I didn't mention this. So my first job 397 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:18,880 Speaker 4: out of college is. 398 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 1: That BROP Wow. 399 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 4: Yes. So I worked on the PR team like Jen 400 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,320 Speaker 4: Guyser was my boss, Like I worked there, and then 401 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 4: it was way too corporate for me. You know, an 402 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 4: assistant there's very corporate. I'm not a corporate gal, which 403 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 4: is great now I know that. So that's when I 404 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 4: went into the music industry and like, you know, I 405 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 4: think I just convinced myself like, well, I have to 406 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:40,679 Speaker 4: be at these jobs, like these are big names, like 407 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 4: I need to be happy, but realistically I wasn't. I 408 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,240 Speaker 4: think deep down, I always wanted to be on the 409 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,199 Speaker 4: other side, like I wanted to do the talent, And 410 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,199 Speaker 4: I think that's maybe why I worked with talent so 411 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,679 Speaker 4: like I could just feel close enough to it in 412 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 4: my life. I just was like, this is never going 413 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,399 Speaker 4: to happen for me. But at the same time, I 414 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 4: always felt like I had something to show the world, 415 00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 4: like I felt like I had a big personality and 416 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,679 Speaker 4: like a say, but I just kind of gave up 417 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:05,440 Speaker 4: on it so fast forward, lost my job, gained a 418 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,400 Speaker 4: lot of weight, not during COVID, like right before COVID 419 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,959 Speaker 4: to where my dad who works in the fashion industry 420 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 4: was like, remy, I really think you should just try 421 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 4: going for like plus modeling and see how it goes. 422 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 4: Where I used to get so pissed when he would 423 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:19,440 Speaker 4: say things like that, were at this point, I was like, 424 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 4: all right, I need to make money, like, let me 425 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 4: just do it.

Yes, No, 496 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,679 Speaker 4: I'm definitely proud of myself and it's great, But I 497 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 4: don't think that the people some of the people that 498 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,679 Speaker 4: follow me, and I have people all shapes and sizes 499 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 4: that follow me. I just don't think that people realize 500 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 4: like it does take time and like I can't just 501 00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 4: snap a finger, and like I'm I want it to 502 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,439 Speaker 4: happen just as much as everyone else. But you know, 503 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 4: I just announced that I'm working with Victorious Secret Pink 504 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,400 Speaker 4: to be their size consultant and brand ambassador to help 505 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 4: them to expand sizes. Of course, I've been getting so 506 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,880 Speaker 4: much positive feedback, but also so much negative from people 507 00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 4: that are just like an XXL, that's all you can do, 508 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 4: like you're doing nothing like and again those are I know, 509 00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,639 Speaker 4: I guess shouldn't look at the negative, and it's not 510 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 4: that many people, but realistically, it's like I want to 511 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 4: prove everyone wrong and I always have wanted to be like, 512 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 4: liked and understood. So it's very hard for me now 513 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:11,399 Speaker 4: being this sensitive person on social media wanting everyone to 514 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 4: like see I'm trying to do good, but then getting 515 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 4: those haters is very hard for me. Like, it's just 516 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 4: hard for me, except. 517 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: Of course you're You're still a human being, and no 518 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 1: matter how much good you do, there's always going to 519 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: be people who it's not good enough. I think that's 520 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 1: a tough pill for most of us to swallow. So 521 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,919 Speaker 1: when you got that package from Nasty Gal, I remember 522 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 1: seeing this. Now I know whatch when you're talking about 523 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 1: because Katie showed it to me.

You know. 530 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:56,919 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's weird because I didn't have the 531 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 4: thoughts then around it, Like I happen to have a 532 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 4: pretty little I never shopped like I mean, I always 533 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 4: like loved clothes, and but I did it in a 534 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 4: way that was like once every two months, I would 535 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,439 Speaker 4: order like a million things online and just get it 536 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:11,679 Speaker 4: because it was such a stressful thing for me growing up. 537 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 4: Like I literally if I shopped in person with my 538 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,120 Speaker 4: mom or something, I would just cry the whole time 539 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 4: because it was frustrating. And then when I order things 540 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 4: online it works or it doesn't work, but I usually 541 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 4: would laugh at myself. So I had a pretty little 542 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 4: thing package the next day because I did one of 543 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 4: my big I'm going to order everything online. So I 544 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,199 Speaker 4: just made that video again but a little more like 545 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 4: in depth, and tried making that one. People liked the 546 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,359 Speaker 4: humor on it. People liked that it wasn't so serious 547 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,160 Speaker 4: of like let's accept ourselves. And I'm not saying that's 548 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 4: a bad thing, but like for me, that's not me, 549 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 4: so for me, I always maybe I have been that 550 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 4: kind of way my whole life, like making fun of 551 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 4: myself in a way when in things like that if 552 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 4: clothes don't fit me, but yes, also like being honest 553 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,199 Speaker 4: that like it upsets me at the same time. So 554 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,239 Speaker 4: I just like did it again. And then I don't know. 555 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 4: I wish I knew what the moment was where I 556 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 4: was like back again with a realistic call and decided 557 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 4: this is going to be like a series and take 558 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,640 Speaker 4: over my life. But I don't remember. It just kind 559 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 4: of it just kind of happened itself, and I yes, 560 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 4: I took a little bit of like my frustration for 561 00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 4: the fashion industry, the humor I've always had, and then 562 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 4: me just always loving to connect with people who have 563 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 4: feeled the same way.

Yes, 593 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 4: maybe in the moment they upset me when people are 594 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 4: like you're fat, You're fat businessness, Like, I already know 595 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 4: the things i need to work on.

But sometimes they don't 598 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 4: even affect me. It's the positive things that my followers 599 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 4: and people that have gotten to know me say that 600 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 4: I like start believing about myself that I maybe always 601 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 4: hated about myself or never like like hated my teeth, 602 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 4: and then everyone just always comments how I have the 603 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 4: greatest teeth, and now I like my teeth. Like it's 604 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 4: kind of like we all don't like things about ourself, 605 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 4: but I put myself out there in front of everyone, 606 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 4: so I'm starting to see different things. But going back 607 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 4: to what you said, yes, when I'm the most vulnerable, 608 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 4: I do speak about it, and I get positive and 609 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 4: negative feedback. Because going back to that video you said 610 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 4: where that girl was like you don't represent this plus 611 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 4: sized community, and I felt like I had to respond, 612 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 4: like I was like, wait, I'm not trying to represent 613 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 4: any community. I got a following from just being myself 614 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,520 Speaker 4: and now it turned into something. So I'm not just 615 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 4: going to change what I'm doing and start being like 616 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 4: this leader or like influential person that knows everything that's 617 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 4: like right to do and have all these people follow. 618 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 4: Like I'm still just like a mess of a person 619 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 4: trying to figure it out. But I do think I 620 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 4: have a lot of like honesty and things I just 621 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 4: want to share and people seem to like it. So 622 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 4: I'm not just gonna start I don't care if people think, like, 623 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 4: you don't represent the plus size community, You're not big enough, 624 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 4: you're this, you're that. It's like, what do you want 625 00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 4: me to do? Like I literally don't know what I'm 626 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 4: supposed to do other than just like keep doing what 627 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 4: I'm doing. But now that it's getting bigger, it's like 628 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 4: people are putting me in like a place like they 629 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 4: want me to be. Like, you know, when it's set 630 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 4: on the Victoria's Secret thing remy to help plus size influencer, 631 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 4: that pisses off some people that are considered in this 632 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 4: plus size community and they're like, well, if she considers 633 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 4: herself plus size, it's not true. In an XXL is 634 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 4: and plus size. It's very hard. I don't care to 635 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 4: put myself in a category, but everyone else is trying to, right. 636 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 1: That's inevitable when you start putting yourself out there, people 637 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 1: try to put you in a box and you obviously 638 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: can't be put in a box. But the struggle is real. 639 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 1: I mean I can relate to being put in a 640 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 1: box and you try your hard is to break out 641 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 1: of it. Now, when you say, like people are upset 642 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 1: about the XXL, I'm gonna be honest, like I don't 643 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 1: even know what size that would mean, Like when they say, 644 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 1: like an extra small, what size? I need a number? 645 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: So when you're creating these sizes and you're helping brands, 646 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 1: do you go off of just the XXL or you 647 00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 1: know an actual number for what that means? 648 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 4: Company and brand is different, so some brands to excel, 649 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 4: some brands do numbers. The problem is and why it's 650 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 4: like but people don't realize, like like I'm a sixteen, eighteen, fourteen, twenty, 651 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,880 Speaker 4: Like I literally that now that I've gone through all 652 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 4: these brands and now starting to shop with Like now 653 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 4: designers are starting to send me clothes and things like that, 654 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,959 Speaker 4: I'm like wow, like it's all across the board. So 655 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 4: that's why I try and do the work for people 656 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 4: where I'm trying it on and then you can see 657 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 4: for yourself, like is this going to work for me? 658 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 4: Is it not? Because it's so confusing, and I think 659 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 4: that it's not even most brands go like XL XXL. 660 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 4: It's like every brand is different, I would say, like 661 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 4: most the frustration for someone like me is that a 662 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 4: lot of these brands just stop at an excel that 663 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 4: is like I would say almost like at this point, 664 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 4: like a little bit smaller than me, and then like 665 00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 4: how many people are left out? Like there are so 666 00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 4: many people that then aren't allowed, that aren't able to 667 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 4: wear clothes at all. And for me, I felt like 668 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 4: I was always like I don't know the word trendy, 669 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 4: liked fashion, and then the only clothes that were there 670 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 4: for maybe some larger people are like frumpy and not cute, 671 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 4: and like why does that relate? Like why can't I 672 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 4: go get the same clothes that a skinnier person is 673 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,840 Speaker 4: getting just because my body's bigger. And that's why I 674 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 4: think the first that I realized was Good American that 675 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 4: Chloe was like the first that really started plus size, 676 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:22,959 Speaker 4: but like cool clothes that I noticed. 677 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: I watched that video you did of the black dress, 678 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 1: and you said that it was a size five. You 679 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 1: give like the turnaround to show how it looks, So 680 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:33,040 Speaker 1: that's good to know that you feel that good. American 681 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:36,040 Speaker 1: is like the first one to really make you feel 682 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 1: good where you don't have to walk into a store 683 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 1: and be like these are my options. 684 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, And I think that's what people too are like 685 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 4: fascinated by, Like they see me that I've always been 686 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 4: like kind of dressed like a little like I like 687 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 4: to show skin and show my boobs and show like 688 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 4: my stomach a little, so like people are like, oh 689 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 4: my god, like I never knew I could dress like that, 690 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 4: And then they get so excited and I could sell 691 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 4: out the item in two seconds because they're like, holy shit, 692 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 4: if Remy's wearing this and she's a size six eighteen, 693 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 4: then I could wear this too. Like I think that's 694 00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 4: where a lot of people get the excitement from following me. 695 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I can imagine, because you know, there's so 696 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 1: many people that are looking in so many aspects of 697 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 1: life for that confidence and that push where who said 698 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:20,839 Speaker 1: that this person can show a little midriff, but this 699 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:24,840 Speaker 1: person can't. Yeah, I think you're showing people the way 700 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,080 Speaker 1: to do it. And here's the thing I always say, 701 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: if if you walk out the door and you feel 702 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 1: beautiful and hot, fuck what everyone else thinks. Yeah, So 703 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 1: you're giving people so much confidence. And I think that 704 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,920 Speaker 1: I'm glad that you're realizing that because it's something where 705 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 1: you're from New York. I'm from well, I'm originally from 706 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: Utah and I live in LA and it's just kind 707 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 1: of a different it's a different vibe out here. We're 708 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 1: not from this small town where everybody's very judgmental, but 709 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 1: those places still exist. They need someone like you to 710 00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,480 Speaker 1: be out here giving them confidence. I think it's amazing. 711 00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 4: Yes, I am starting to see it more like I'm 712 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 4: starting to give myself a little bit more credit and 713 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 4: like seeing the what I'm doing. Like I mean, I 714 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 4: think the biggest part is when people come up to 715 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 4: me on the street, because that's you know, people come 716 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,800 Speaker 4: up to me crying like once a week, these girls 717 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 4: that are like, You've changed my life, and I just 718 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 4: I didn't understand for so long. But I think it's 719 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 4: just yes, giving them this confidence. I think what's hard 720 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 4: for me to get it is that I still lack 721 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 4: a lot of body confidence. I would say I've always 722 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 4: been an overall confident person, like mentally and like I'm remubator, 723 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:32,760 Speaker 4: this is what I'm doing. I'm not afraid to say anything. 724 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,439 Speaker 4: But when it comes to my body for the first 725 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 4: time my life, I'm not confident in that at all. 726 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 4: So when people comment and then come up to me 727 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:41,839 Speaker 4: and say, you've given me so much confidence, I don't. 728 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:43,279 Speaker 4: I think it's maybe that I don't want to feel 729 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 4: inauthentic because I'm like, wait, I'm not that confident right now. 730 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 4: I actually am like really not happy with my body 731 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,279 Speaker 4: right now. So it's like a you know, I think 732 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,560 Speaker 4: it's hard because then you're labeled like this influencer. We're 733 00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 4: like I said, I'm influencing these people. But I don't 734 00:35:58,200 --> 00:35:59,840 Speaker 4: want to like be the one to say that I 735 00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 4: have all the answers or anything, because I really don't. 736 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 4: Like I'm just as lost as anyone else. 737 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 1: But I think that's why people gravitate towards you, Yeah, 738 00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: because that's relatable and I can relate to that on 739 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,839 Speaker 1: a lot of levels. Because I people will come up 740 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: to me or slide in the DM and talk about 741 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 1: how do I get your type of confidence? And I'm like, girl, 742 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:24,200 Speaker 1: I am faking this shit until it just happens for me. 743 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,400 Speaker 1: And maybe you do the same thing. I don't know, 744 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:31,760 Speaker 1: but whatever you're doing, people see you and they want 745 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 1: what you have, and you're not just giving the curvy 746 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:39,520 Speaker 1: girls and curvy you know, men, women and everything in 747 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 1: between that confidence. Like when I watch you, I feel liberated. 748 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:47,359 Speaker 1: You know, you're hitting both ends of the spectrum and 749 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:52,279 Speaker 1: everything in between, and you're very relatable. So I don't 750 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 1: feel like you're being inauthentic by coming across as a 751 00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:58,879 Speaker 1: confident person and then having your moments. I think that's 752 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 1: just called being a person exactly. 753 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 4: And I think that's just it's such a rare thing 754 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 4: to be a person on social media because everyone's so 755 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 4: used to needing to show this like perfect side to them, 756 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:11,839 Speaker 4: and that's really that I think is something going back 757 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:13,919 Speaker 4: to when I started my videos that I did think. 758 00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 4: I was like, I want to show the bad and 759 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 4: not only the good. Everyone only shows the good on 760 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 4: social media and that fucks with me no, and it 761 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 4: messes with a lot of people. I'm not as much 762 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:25,280 Speaker 4: of a picture person. I'm more of a video person. 763 00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 4: I mean, I like like taking my like modeling phos 764 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 4: and stuff. But like in New York City, how people 765 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,799 Speaker 4: take like blogger photos on the street like I can. 766 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 4: That gives me so much anxiety. And I actually just 767 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 4: recently went on like a trip with like that was 768 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,000 Speaker 4: really like an influencer influencer trip with just girls that 769 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:40,880 Speaker 4: more do photos and not video, and it was like 770 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 4: really another world for me, like seeing just how perfect 771 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 4: everyone needs their feed to be and look and dress 772 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 4: and act, and I'm like that world isn't something that 773 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,719 Speaker 4: I can see myself in or ever would want to be, 774 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 4: And so like like that's great for other people, but 775 00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 4: like for me, I'm content with what I'm putting out 776 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:02,200 Speaker 4: there and what I'm doing, and I'm very interested to 777 00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:04,000 Speaker 4: see where it will go. You know, Like every day 778 00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 4: I'm just kind of like I don't have a plan. 779 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 4: Like when I did used to have a plan of 780 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 4: what I wanted my life to be, it went completely 781 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,600 Speaker 4: a different way, and I'm happy about that. So I'm 782 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:13,960 Speaker 4: literally just going with it. When I get an opportunity, 783 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 4: like the Victoria's Secret thing or something comes my way 784 00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,240 Speaker 4: and it sounds good to me. I'm like, great, let's 785 00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:21,799 Speaker 4: do it. So I'm just kind of like taking this 786 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 4: and seeing what happens. Like I just it's crazy. I 787 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:24,880 Speaker 4: don't know. 788 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,120 Speaker 1: Well, it's only been, like you said, a little over 789 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 1: a year. I'm sure you're still processing everything. I mean, 790 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 1: I'm in awe of what you've accomplished in such a 791 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:34,960 Speaker 1: short period of time, Like you were just meant to 792 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,960 Speaker 1: do this. Thank you, You're so welcome. First of all, again, 793 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,880 Speaker 1: if anyone's living under a rock, where can people find you? 794 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 4: My Instagram and TikTok is just at my name at 795 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:51,040 Speaker 4: remy baitor r e m Ibader. Potentially might start a YouTube, 796 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 4: but that takes a lot of efforts. So I'm just 797 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,120 Speaker 4: pushing it off and pushing it off. But I think 798 00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 4: there's gonna be a lot of very exciting things coming up, 799 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 4: more exciting announcements than things that are happening in the 800 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:01,799 Speaker 4: next few months.
