That was a really tricky decision for me because I spent years trying to get into London College of Fashion. podcast-host
I wanted nothing more in my life as a young girl in Plymouth, which is a small town in the UK, to get into London College of Fashion. podcast-host
I literally could not have imagined anything cooler in my life. podcast-host
Waking up in London, in North Acton, in my student hall apartment, like tiny little room, like smaller than this, my entire apartment. podcast-host
And just getting on the train to go to art school, fashion school, and being able to pull it up every single day, being around really interesting people who are into the same shit as me. podcast-host
Like that was what I loved. podcast-host
I loved being a student. podcast-host
I loved all of that stuff. podcast-host
And yet I was exhausted because I was also working a job as a waitress in a bar, in a restaurant in Chelsea, in London. podcast-host
And I was also selling my illustrations on Instagram. podcast-host
And I could feel... podcast-host
that there was like a threshold moment where if I stayed at university, I'm going down this really predictable route, but I could feel that if I just flung myself into art, podcast-host
I just wanted to put the biggest bet on myself possible. podcast-host
I love taking risks and I've always put this big bet on myself. podcast-host
And I know that that's really fucking hard to do, but that's what I love. podcast-host
It's why I moved to LA despite building a very solid foundation for myself in London. podcast-host
Like I lived in London for about 10 years and I didn't end up having that many close friends in London. podcast-host
I had a few besties that like lived in the UK, but I didn't see anyone on a day-to-day basis because all of my friendships were long distance. podcast-host
So when I was in London, I didn't really see anyone for like my last two years of living in London. podcast-host
And I really needed that to sort of figure out who I was becoming because I had my second spiritual awakening in like my early 20s. podcast-host
