              Valeria sits down with her close friend, Aleks Malkin, to discuss the beauty and complexities of life's choices, personal growth, and the paths not taken. The episode dives deep into themes of self-reflection, hyper-independence, and the power of vulnerability, as the two friends share stories of their past, the defining moments that shaped them, and how their perspectives on life have evolved over the years.


              Aleks opens up about her journey with motherhood, marriage, and the importance of allowing oneself to feel deeply, even if it means facing uncomfortable truths. Valeria shares her own experiences of contemplating the "what ifs" in life, questioning the different paths she could have taken, and the realization that some choices were necessary for her growth. They explore how childhood experiences and societal expectations have influenced their definitions of love, success, and identity, and how they’re striving to create a more authentic and fulfilling life.

                        This week, Valeria is joined by iconic Victoria's Secret Angel, supermodel, and entrepreneur, Taylor Hill. Taylor opens up about her journey as a model, beginning with her career's early start at the age of 14 and the challenges of growing up in the modeling industry, including dropping out of high school and navigating the pressures of public life. She also highlights the pivotal moment in her career when she joined Victoria’s Secret at 18, which propelled her into the global spotlight. Taylor reflects on the brand's past promotion of unrealistic beauty standards and expresses her support for its recent shift towards inclusivity and authenticity. 


                        Beyond her career, Taylor talks about the importance of family support, particularly her mother’s unwavering presence during her early modeling years. She also touches on her approach to body image, embracing the changes that come with aging, and the value of self-acceptance. The episode takes an emotional turn as Taylor discusses her deep connection with her late dog, Tate, and the grief of losing him, as well as her experience with the loss of an unplanned pregnancy. Taylor's reflections provide a candid look into the complexities of her life, both in the spotlight and behind the scenes.
