In this conversation we talk about:
- Val’s personal body image story: growing up a child model in LA, overcoming sexual abuse, eating disorders, drug use, and low self-worth.
- The impact of Hollywood culture on her self-esteem, self-censorship, and body autonomy as an adolescent.
- Her experience as a black woman, how this has shaped her identity, & the problems that stem from not addressing the “middle skin color”.
- Finding recovery and the most influential steps within her healing journey.
- The importance of choosing friends & environments that foster the person that you want to be.
- Letting go of the fear of how others will judge you and living an honest, authentic life.
- Money, dieting, body image, fame- the disordered intersections between these life areas and how control plays a part.
- The role of social media in business, influencer culture, and how we can create a healthier relationship with these platforms.
- The journey of building her company, Role Models Management, and her mission behind creating an ethical talent agency.
- Why comparison is the thief of joy and how to begin appreciating what you have.
