Overall, we think you're really gonna love this episode. We know so many of you follow and admire her, and hope you enjoy getting to know her on another level. “ When people say, ‘Mikayla, you're my favorite body positivity influencer,’ I don't think that's fair to say because I do struggle with an eating disorder and because I don't believe I'm the most body positive. I try to be realistic about it where yes, I have grown confident in myself, but not every day is perfect for me.” - Mikayla Nogueira What We Talk About: How old she was when she posted her first YouTube video The job & school plans she had when the pandemic hit in 2020 What happened when she posted her first viral video Advice for people who want to put themselves out there but are afraid to How to cope with having so many eyes on you How she handled “getting canceled” How she deals with online hate Mikayla’s confidence journey and why she developed an eating disorder What she does for self-care or to make herself happy Her go-to look off camera that makes her feel hot aka “the mikayla look” Inside her relationship with Cody: how they met and why they work so well The one product she would choose if she could only use one Her dream brand collab Dream celebrity to work with and what type of look she’d do Her dreams and goals for the future “In that moment I was like, ‘Am I gonna lose all my followers? Is my career over? Am I no longer gonna have any opportunities? Are people not gonna wanna watch me anymore?’ All those fears I had about negativity, that whole situation just proved me wrong. People will constantly try to take you down, but you just keep going and don't let it change who you are.” - Mikayla Nogueira New podcast episodes of Confident Collective drop every Tuesday.
