In Episode 14, I interview Kayla Wong, Founder of sustainable fashion brand 'Basics for Basics' and soon-to-be launched concept 'Casa of Love'. I’ve always been inspired by how Kayla uses her voice and platform to amplify important topics such as LGBTQ rights and inclusive beauty standards.

We had a very authentic conversation on the steps of Sheung Wan (HK), where we talked about everything from the representation of women in media, her recent digital cover with her partner Elaine Chen-Fernandez, her new concept @casaof.love and much more.

I hope that this conversation will remind you to always stay true to yourself, and in Kayla’s words, "that you can choose to love whoever you want to love."

Here is a summary of our conversation:

  • Being role model for LGBTQ youth in Asia
  • Showing up authentically on social media
  • The sexualization of women in global media
  • Everybody plays a role in encouraging inclusive beauty standards
  • How everything will align when you focus on yourself
  • Little compliments can go a long way
  • Remembering your ‘why’ during difficult moments
