Summary

With over 1.3 million followers on social media and a last name that is recognized in almost every household, Sophia Stallone is one of Hollywood's "It girls." But what people don't know about Sophia is how down to earth, smart, and REAL she is! Sophia shares the reality of her experiences in the modeling industry, detailing the pressures she felt to fit into tiny sample sizes and ultimately shares why she decided to part ways with the industry. She then talks about her lifelong battle with anxiety, and how she's learned to accept and own that side of her while also seeking help from a therapist. Sophia also explains how she navigates the single life, how to weed out social climbers from genuine friends, and how she's managed to stay so normal despite life in front of the spotlight. If you find yourself fantasizing about having millions of followers and comments online, give this conversation with Sophia a listen so you can hear how even the people who seem to have it all are actually experiencing the same insecurities we are!
