In retrospect, what did you find to be the most challenging part of being a model? There are a dozen aspects that I can imagine would be difficult, but its not often we have access to someone to ask directly.

I would say the most challenging aspect of being a model was letting go. I think to truly be successful in front of the camera, you can’t take yourself too seriously. It’s important to keep loose and have fun! Being in a natural or genuine state results in the best work. That’s why I believe Bettie Page is such an icon. She is genuinely happy and having fun. Thank you for your question!

Ironically, the same things that get in the way of being a really good role player, or a really good improv participant. The ability to let go, to let the moment take you, to transcend the situation and imagine something different and bring it to the table or to the stage. All of these things are linked in terms of the experience of the participants.

I'm glad to have been able to ask. I think you'll fit in just fine around here.

Exactly! Well thank you kindly for the warm welcome ❤️

My great and honourable pleasure, miss. Its the least one can do. [amused bow]
