what's the what does Peggy Bundy say I don't know what is love and marriage
again carriage I have heard I just want to keep hearing me sing
nice work time for a little interview
I started on YouTube and Instagram or first was a I mean I was already on
Instagram that like everyone else I was just I was sharing and before those
things like that when I graduated my certification or list nutrition I
started seeing clients and I understood that it's really not it's not gonna get
me to spread the information to a wider audience
so I got a little frustrated so I decided what can you know what can I do
really to bring all that information to as many people as possible and help them
that's when I started a blog which was kind of late for blogging so a blog in
2016 was already kind of a yesterday's news so when I started the blog I
figured that it you know it's very hard to connect to people with writing things
like they can't really understand you know where I'm growing and what message
I'm trying to bring across so then I figured okay I'm gonna do something
really scary something I have no idea about and that's gonna be YouTube so
that was my first introduction to you
know I started with my phone I still shoot some videos on my phone to be
honest and that's I think the big miss perception there are a lot of people is
it misperceptions miss Coates misconception that a lot of people have
today they think that you need all this fancy equipment and the right house and
the right background and honestly I still like use tables and books as my
stands and I should in my house most of the time i YouTubed how to edit videos
and that's how I learned how to edit videos I basically learned everything
from the internet
what do you like best about me what I like best about being an influencer is
sharing my life and you know the ups and downs and just like kind of real life
tips with people I love that today people can connect to something real I
remember when I was a teenager the only people I could like tried to look up to
are like either models in the magazines or someone that is very untouchable so I
really liked that little I mean that's a little anymore but the community that we
built where I feel that I really have a personal strong connection with my
audience and I'm not so much as like an expert I don't want to be an expert I
just want to be like you know like their friend or their biggest sister or
someone that they can kind of go to to you know get some help yeah yeah
yeah so initially I wanted to get a job in McDonald's and my mother was against
it when I had a birthday party with Jewish people it's like a bat mitzvah so
at 12 years old I had this big party and we got a photographer to come and take
photos of me my mom saw something that I've never even thought about I was a
very shy very kind of people didn't even know I was going to school with them
like I was very invisible as a kid and she saw something she's like you really
you're you're a little different on camera it would be more confident you
you know you're very different than in real life so 12 years old it was very
young but the photographer's told her you need to look into getting her into
modeling industry so when I was 15 and I was pursuing a career at McDonald my
mother said okay all your friends are working there that's great let's try
modeling and if it's not gonna work if no one accepts you then I can you can go
work at McDonald's so I was like so happening for me I'm so getting that job
at McDonald's what happened is that that she submitted photos of me to this
online competition it was actually for the russian-speaking like people in in
Israel and I won we went to get the prize and it was a horrific night for me
but Elite model agency was in there and the guys saw me and he contacted us
after and that's kind of how it started so from something very terrible that
night was very terrible turned to be something I mean a full-on career 100%
it was my mom I did not want to do it that was not something that came
naturally to me I think that as teenage girls just being at schools or like out
there in the world we always compare herself to like regular people so for
someone that was so insecure and Sur shy to get into the modeling industry and
start going to castings and compete against all these gorgeous girls it was
it was a very it was like you know when you throw someone in the water
you sink or swim that was that yeah I
hate the world balance because it's a very tricky word it doesn't really exist
and I think that a lot of people think that you know it's something that we
need to aspire to I think that for me balance changes every day some days you
know tips more towards work and I'm more into debt that kind of area or the other
days when I feel like okay I'm way too much there I'm gonna start tipping it
towards my kids or myself or so I think they're just being in tune with myself
and being aware of what's going on in my home and with me when I need a break
when my kids need me so I think it's just kind of self-awareness and being in
tune with what's going on in my life yeah that's how I find that balance
Lebon rosewater mist my wallet obviously air pause because I listen to a lot of
podcasts and a charger yeah currently I love goop I love so what is a soul
conversation with Oprah Oprah's podcast I love how I built this yeah it's really
good oh thank you so much thank you and yeah that's some of the ones I'm
kind of listening to now what's my favorite fashion trend
no my god I hate that yeah I don't know if it's happening still but it will
always happen for me yeah definitely Snickers I think that in general the
fact that's kind of the more laid-back chilled you know like tents that are
sweatpants things like that I love that it came back into style and people can
wear it to different places comfort is everything so that's definitely
something that I I'm into yeah I mean I think that this industry is still at the
beginning of it because it's gonna get bigger and bigger because this is the
new media I think that what a lot of people do wrong that I see is that
they're trying to imitate someone else they look at other people that are
either fashion fashion bloggers or beauty bloggers and they're doing the
same thing and the whole concept of influencers is to bring your own
personal stamp to the world to bring your own authentic self and that's how
people connect to you and at the end of the day the way to build an audience is
to tell your story and you'll find your tribe just to be authentic and real and
not trying to be someone that you're not it's very important what's your favorite
kind of
my favorite kind of YouTube videos to make are probably the motivational
self-love ones although I love fashion and beauty and things like that but for
me I really get excited and passionate knowing and even receiving feedback
about the videos you know smell small lot of things that remind people maybe
to stop once in a while or breathe a little or not to be so hard on
themselves I think we all need you know that little cheerleader to be like
you're gonna so I love making goes
I would probably be somewhere in Europe wandering the streets trying to
understand the purpose for my life I was very very very lucky to meet my husband
at that point that I met him because he really not only made me believe in
myself but also showed me the style of myself that I never thought I had or
possessed oh my god I don't want to think where I would be without him it's
very sad okay we're good thank you
you
yeah
thanks lady thank you nice to meet you so nice to meet you downstairs
we little meet candidates yeah okay you guys are fast enough to lock up there's
this one stop it this is so cute
I wanted to finish this vlog in the car but I fell asleep on the way so today
