The Toast · The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025 · 4 Jun 2025 podcast

Here we are. So that's the era you're in. That's the era I'm in, the do less era, but reap the most amount of benefit.

And I feel like I reached that point because the first, like I've been doing this for eight years. Okay. And you have to grind. You have to really put in the extra, extra work. You have to go through the burnout. Like all these steps are part of the process. And I feel like now I reach this point where I'm like, OK, now I can step back a little bit. I have system in place.

You know, there's I know what I'm doing, so I can take a breath now. Yeah. So how did you get your start? So for me, it started with actually a blog. Well, actually, I'll take you a little bit back. I came from modeling, so I started doing modeling at 15, 16 and had the opportunity to travel the world, you know, make money. It was a wonderful experience.

Met my husband, got married at 21, and I've realized that I want to start a family. I don't want to do modeling anymore. So I asked myself, OK, what am I going to do next? The next thing that was really interesting to me was nutrition. So I went to learn nutrition. And when I finished school, I was like, I'm going to open up an office. Open up an office, hated seeing people.

And I realized early on that I'm not a one-on-one person at all. So I have this knowledge. I want to help people. What do I do? I went on social media. I started a blog. It was called The Modern Fox. And it was 2017, I would say. I did that for a little bit, realized that it's not challenging at all, like didn't really stretch my creativity.

So I found YouTube and I was like, okay, this looks really scary, but also fun. Yeah. So I started there and it was just, in the beginning was nutrition, then it got into vlogging, then beauty fashion, you know, naturally kind of seeped into other areas of my life.

YouTube was my first platform that I really focused on. So it really brought me that really engaged audience that was very invested in my content. And I think that was like the best foundation for me. Then I moved to Instagram and kind of learned how to navigate that. But it took me years of experimentation. Like it wasn't this viral, you know, right off the bat.

And the biggest shift happened, I would say during COVID because we were locked in the house. And I was just, I woke up one morning when they locked everyone in and I was just like, I have a purpose. I need to use social media to make people feel good. And I just went ham. Like, I don't remember that time because I was filming in my room 24-7. That's such a good use of time. It was insane.

But I truly felt like this is my calling right now. Like, this is how I'm supposed to show up. So I started doing Instagram lives every day. I was doing workouts. I was just living online. It was insane. I look back and I'm like, who was that animal? Yeah.

Yeah, you were. Yeah, I was obsessed. So when did you start your podcast? So the podcast started about a year, a year and a half ago. And I had a rough start with the podcast.

Well, first of all, if I'm being honest, I walked into this being like, I've been doing social media. I know how to be on camera. Like, no problem. And when I sat down, I got humbled so fast because it's a completely different platform, different kind of delivery. And I've realized that I don't know my voice in a long form. Yeah. Like I can do a quick 15 seconds. No problem.

But sitting there for an hour.

The format of my show was very complex because the Virgo in me was like, let's just give so many layers to make it feel so valuable. So it was a guest. And then in between the guests was a monologue. No, I made it so complicated. Yeah. It was this whole like you're in my head type of thing, you know? Got it.

Yeah, so I am known for doing the most until I realized that if it's not broken, don't fix it. Obviously, there were enough podcasts out there to show me that you just need to come and just have a conversation. To me, it was like, that's not enough. I need more. So I did all that and I kind of sat with myself listening to these episodes and I'm like, This is a train wreck.

So season two, we pulled back and really went back to basics. But it is a journey. And I have such a newfound respect for podcasters. Like you guys have been doing such an amazing job for all these years to really be able to come in.

But do you feel that was from the beginning or did you build that toward...

Yes. Also, I have to mention, you made such a good point, when you become a mother, like my kids especially, right, they're 12, 10, they watch what I do. Their friends watch what I do. Oh, really? So not only am I in my own head, I also have all these children in my head.

So whatever I say, I got to think, like, is it going to embarrass my kids?

Is this something I'm going to regret?

So that's where I'm at. Just like all in my own little head.
