“Many influencers, especially those that are new to it, believe it's not a long-term career. And so, they just try to make as much cash as possible while they have the followers.”
“I've definitely experienced someone not being the person they've shown themselves to be online.”
“I really feel like I'm making a difference and I don't see myself on any other path.”
“I'm intelligent, which means I'm quite good at reading people.”
“Through the documentaries I make, my job is to talk to people and make them feel comfortable and listen to really harrowing stories about things that have happened to them.”
“I always use a heat protection spray that has argan oil or keratin in. My mum always told me to look after my hair and use heat protection. For a long time I didn't listen to her and now I wish I had because I do have some damage.”
“I want to inspire any woman who feels like they couldn't do something because they didn't feel good enough, they didn't feel confident enough, they didn't feel empowered enough.”
“Sometimes you need to have opinions on things and talk about them and open up debate.”
“I love the song 'Potential' by Alt Bloom.”
“There's so much to be said for being open and being unapologetically you.”
“The fact that I get to give a platform and a voice to someone who may not have that - or educating people on a really important topic - there's nothing else like it.”
“Eating disorders can be extremely isolating, they can tear you away from your family and your friends and make you feel really ashamed of what you're going through.”
“As the 'Instagram effect' makes Ibiza the place to be seen for more and more young Brits I'm keen to explore how the island operates and deals with the challenges this poses.”
“There are lots of eating disorders out there. It's not just anorexia.”
“I always live by the statement 'everything is what you make it.' There will always be difficult situations that occur in life but you have a choice, you can make the best of a situation or you can just roll over and let it defeat you.”
“I've grown up and changed drastically since I was 21-years-old, before I completely lacked confidence.”
“I'm not one of these people who are partying on a big yacht or splashing cash on a 100,000 villa for a party - if I was, I'd probably scale my social media back to not flaunt it.”
“I would never promote anything diet related. There will be no meal replacement shakes or anything that might make one of my followers buy something that I don't believe in.”
“We all have a responsibility to post the most responsible content we possibly can.”
“The level of wealth in Ibiza is shocking - and working with the police, it was clear that where there's wealth, there's crime - and it's a crime hotspot.”
