Episode 06 - Caila Stapleton
Wow. Caila totally blew me away. I was not expecting this episode to go so deep.
Honestly, I have been super lucky to have mostly positive experiences so far on my pro journey, and I am usually a sunshine and rainbows kind of girl. So it was really unexpected when Caila opened up about some issues with body image and mental health.
But in reality, this probably happens way more than we realize. Its so common for coaches to recruit based on body type, and fat percentage is commonly measured, as well as weigh-ins before training in front of the whole team.
There is no other profession besides modeling where a woman’s body is under such scrutiny. It’s a bizarre reality of our life and the pressure that comes with it is real. So this episode is deeper than usual, but these kind of conversations should be normalized so that no one has to feel the way Caila did.
K bye.
