This video brought back so many emotions. I remember being rejected after working with the brand for 3.5 years. It hurt, and it made me feel like I wasn’t skinny enough or good enough… I muted everyone from the industry for a while just to find some peace. In that quiet I started to understand how much it had been affecting me mentally and physically…and finally allowed myself to let that dream go Looking back, that rejection was one of the best things that happened to me. Without it i might still be modeling. Instead, I began searching for something that gave me more meaning and more control over my own life…it was a loooong journey of 10 years with failures in between haha I don’t watch the VS shows anymore simply because my interests have changed & it just doesn’t feel the same anymore to me. Something that once meant everything to me no longer does, and I never imagined I’d feel that way and it just shows how much sometimes we magnify and create our own reality. I hope Romee knows this moment doesn’t define her worth or what comes next What’s your thoughts? Are you watching it this year ? 🤍 #realtalk #vsfashionshow #modeling
