    Witnessing your journey on how you became an IMG model was truly inspiring, invoking the transformative teachings of my life coach, Lisa Haisha, from her memorable retreat in the Philippines. Both your achievements and Lisa's wisdom in The Soul Blazing serve as constant sources of motivation for me. It highlights the beauty of self-discovery and perseverance in turning dreams into reality.

If you look at yourself and point out ‘flaws’ based off only one version of what’s beautiful, you’re not going to feel your best, and that will hold you back more than anything! Don’t get a nose job, rather curate your algorithm to show you a range of beautiful faces and bodies. Learn to love yourself, (it’s cheaper than surgery, and much more effective! haha)
