This is an R Media podcast.
I think that forgiveness is one of the most important practices. I think that's something that I've actually even taught my boys, like it's important to forgive and make peace because there's so much freedom in forgiveness and peacemaking and that creates so much more room for love and for growth and peace.
lifts the weight off your shoulders like it's it takes way more energy to hold a grudge than it does to forgive marie claire presents you're gonna want to hear this hello and welcome back to you're gonna want to hear this a marie claire podcast i'm your host georgie mccourt Now, before we get into today's episode with Miranda Kerr, who needs very little introduction, I need to give you the backstory, particularly if you're watching this on our YouTube channel and you're wondering why I'm sitting outside in the freezing cold. I have wanted to interview Miranda Kerr for months and we finally managed to get a date in the diary. The only problem is that I have just moved into a new house and I still don't have internet.
So for our 8am interview, I decided I'd drive to my mum's house and I would record it there. A very sensible plan until I arrived and discovered that the garage door was locked. There was no spare key and I could not get inside. So naturally, I interviewed one of the world's most famous supermodels sitting outside in two degree weather wearing a very thin cardigan, hoping that the Wi-Fi wouldn't crash. It was all a little bit stressful. But then the cockatoos arrived. My mum has apparently convinced every cockatoo in the Southern Highlands where I live that she runs some sort of all-you-can-eat bird cafe. So at one point, I had about 15 of them squawking around me while I was trying to have a calm, professional conversation with Miranda Kerr.
Thankfully, Miranda was incredibly understanding. We got the interview done, and Miranda was, as always, an absolute delight. I grew up seeing Miranda in the pages of Dolly magazine, the country girl who went on to become one of the world's most recognizable models in the world. Yet she remains so warm and grounded and down to earth. Today, she's the mother of four boys. She co-parents her eldest son with actor Orlando Bloom, and she shares three younger sons with her husband, Snapchat founder Evan Spiegel. In this conversation, Miranda speaks so openly about motherhood, family, business, and the life that she has built away from the runway. I really admire the passion and discipline that she has poured into building her beauty empire, Cora Organics.
But I think what stayed with me most during this conversation was just how honest and vulnerable she was. This is a very personal conversation, and yes, there were tears. So if you hear a cockatoo squawking at any point during this conversation, I apologise. This is Miranda Kerr and you're going to want to hear this. Okay, now I want to go back to when you were just 24.
Oh my gosh, now we have to remember. I'm 43.
How did Miranda Kerr’s childhood in regional Australia shape her path to becoming a Victoria’s Secret Angel?
You're 43. I mean, isn't that crazy? So you were 24 years old when you became a Victoria's Secret angel.
Time flies, I tell you.
What do you remember about that moment in your life? And like, how did it change the trajectory of your life almost overnight? Because I remember it was just such a big moment because you were like Australian, you were this supermodel and there you were on the Victoria's Secret runway.
You know, it was quite surreal. I remember the first time, you know, if we just rewind back to the first time I was ever in America when I was 15, I did a student exchange program. to Virginia and my host family took me to my very first Victoria's Secret store. And I remember just thinking, wow, this is just incredible because we had nothing like that in Australia. Like the extent of like the kind of, kind of glamour, but girl next door, but like, you know, all these, like a candy shop for women, really. It was just like, it was, I, you know, I could have never have imagined that I would be part of that fast forward, you know, uh, I don't know, six years later, seven years later.
