About this listen

What does it actually take to survive in the modelling industry?


In this episode, we sit down with two working models for an honest, unfiltered conversation about what life is really like behind the images. From early rejections and self-doubt to the pressure of castings, agencies, money, and uncertainty — this is the side of modelling that rarely gets talked about.


We break down how they got started, the mental challenges they faced along the way, and what they wish they had known before stepping into the industry. This isn’t a highlight reel or a glamorised version of modelling — it’s a real conversation about the ups, the downs, and the cost of staying in the game.


If you’re an aspiring model, already working in the industry, or simply curious about how the modelling world actually works behind the scenes, this episode offers an honest perspective you won’t find on social media.
