- 00:00:56purpose with J
- 00:00:58shett I want to say this to you because
- 00:01:00I don't think I've ever talked about
- 00:01:01this with you but you come up in more
- 00:01:04conversations or when I'm doing Keynotes
- 00:01:07on stages and it's really funny because
- 00:01:10I kind of think of you randomly and
- 00:01:12often I want to share this with you I've
- 00:01:13never said this to you and it comes up
- 00:01:15because I have watched your journey from
- 00:01:18afar as everyone has for such a long
- 00:01:20time and I've really deeply admired just
- 00:01:23how phenomenally skilled you are at what
- 00:01:25you do I think you're a phenomenal
- 00:01:27dancer you're an incredible performer
- 00:01:29thank you and if I'm ever presenting or
- 00:01:31talking to anyone about social media or
- 00:01:33digital or whatever is I always bring
- 00:01:35your name up because I think you're one
- 00:01:37of those people that obviously got your
- 00:01:40moment on Tik Tok when it took off and
- 00:01:42everything but I feel like there were
- 00:01:44just years and years of practice and
- 00:01:46hard work that went behind it that we
- 00:01:48don't always see and I just I just
- 00:01:50wanted to share that with you as we kick
- 00:01:51off today that I think it's incredible
- 00:01:53and I think you've been practicing for
- 00:01:55this life that you live since you were
- 00:01:57like four years old and so I I always
- 00:02:00try and highlight that and so I don't
- 00:02:01know I I think of you in that context
- 00:02:03often so no thank you I mean I
- 00:02:05appreciate that I think when it comes to
- 00:02:08social media it's very easy to get on
- 00:02:10yourself and say it was just luck but to
- 00:02:13hear that from someone like you is
- 00:02:15definitely you know puts it into a
- 00:02:17different perspective that I don't
- 00:02:19always let myself feel which is really
- 00:02:22nice good I'm glad thank you do you
- 00:02:24still kind of kid yourself and just say
- 00:02:26it's luck to yourself now after all
- 00:02:28these years do you still feel that way I
- 00:02:30do and I think that you know having that
- 00:02:34in the back of my mind definitely keeps
- 00:02:36me a little bit more humble and helps me
- 00:02:40you know this wasn't something that I
- 00:02:44was asking for looking for but I mean
- 00:02:47I've all like my entire life I've been
- 00:02:52filming videos whether it's like I was
- 00:02:5510 and look at how I do this or this how
- 00:02:58I do my makeup like always just making
- 00:03:01videos that was always something I loved
- 00:03:03and I never shared them with anyone
- 00:03:05until Tik Tok so it's really it's crazy
- 00:03:08to think back about those times and how
- 00:03:11they probably really did help me get to
- 00:03:13where I am now I love what you said that
- 00:03:15luck or viewing your success as luck
- 00:03:18helps you stay humble I think that's
- 00:03:20such a beautiful trait and quality to
- 00:03:22Aspire for and to always practice at the
- 00:03:25same time though I'm guessing that when
- 00:03:27you see it through the lens of luck
- 00:03:30sometimes it can affect your self-esteem
- 00:03:32or selfworth because you're like oh I
- 00:03:34just got lucky and maybe I don't deserve
- 00:03:36this I don't know if those thoughts come
- 00:03:38up at the same time as trying to stay
- 00:03:39humble there's this side of like low
- 00:03:42self-esteem that we all go through I
- 00:03:44mean absolutely I think it's hard not to
- 00:03:47feel that way especially a lot of my
- 00:03:49journey was everyone telling me that I
- 00:03:54didn't deserve it kind of feeding into
- 00:03:57that and it's starting to really affect
- 00:03:59you know how I think about myself do I
- 00:04:01deserve anything why am I where I am I
- 00:04:03don't do anything special I'm not
- 00:04:06different than anyone there's millions
- 00:04:08of people that would probably be better
- 00:04:10at my job than I am but somehow it's me
- 00:04:14and you know I kind of try
- 00:04:18and separate myself online from who I am
- 00:04:21in person I always like to say it's
- 00:04:23Charli demilio who everyone else sees
- 00:04:25and Charlie who I am when it's just me
- 00:04:29and you know you really have to
- 00:04:32appreciate the things that you work hard
- 00:04:35for because I feel like those are the
- 00:04:37moments where I really do feel proud of
- 00:04:39myself because I don't always even when
- 00:04:42achieving these amazing things I'm like
- 00:04:44well it's not really me it's the people
- 00:04:47that are watching me that got me here
- 00:04:49you know like they could have done this
- 00:04:50to anyone but when it comes to things
- 00:04:53like Dancing with the Stars or hosting
- 00:04:56the Kids Choice Awards like those were
- 00:04:58two of probably my favorite
- 00:05:01accomplishments of mine because I really
- 00:05:03felt like I had to work for that and it
- 00:05:07was just moments where I I really truly
- 00:05:11felt proud of myself and I don't feel
- 00:05:13like that very often I'm so glad that
- 00:05:16you shared that with us because yeah
- 00:05:18it's it's interesting isn't it it's like
- 00:05:20the reason why you did so well on both
- 00:05:23of those is because you've done it for
- 00:05:25years and years and years but sometimes
- 00:05:27you need to have a moment where you're
- 00:05:29working hard on one specific thing so
- 00:05:31that you can see it how long did it take
- 00:05:33you to make
- 00:05:36this awareness of like there's Charlie
- 00:05:38demilio and then there's Charlie like
- 00:05:40how long did it take you to figure that
- 00:05:41out for yourself and to even explain it
- 00:05:44in that way yeah it definitely took
- 00:05:47me a while I always knew in the back of
- 00:05:50my mind I was like I would do certain
- 00:05:53brand deals or ads and they'd have this
- 00:05:55creative and I do it and I put on this
- 00:05:58like super happy smiley like obviously
- 00:06:01catering to a younger audience which I
- 00:06:03love doing but that's not who I am at
- 00:06:06heart and I think growing up and I
- 00:06:09started this when I was what 15 years
- 00:06:11old and then I was turning 17 and 18 and
- 00:06:14I was you know getting tattoos and I
- 00:06:17would curse and everyone would be like
- 00:06:19whoa this is crazy and I was like this
- 00:06:21is what I do in my normal day-to-day
- 00:06:23life like this is who I am so I really
- 00:06:26just had to the version that people
- 00:06:29don't like isn't even me you know it's
- 00:06:32what they nitpick out of certain things
- 00:06:34that I do and I think coming to that
- 00:06:37realization honestly over the past few
- 00:06:40months maybe this past year I think has
- 00:06:42been probably one of the most helpful
- 00:06:44things to not let what other people say
- 00:06:47get to me I empathize and feel so
- 00:06:50compassionate for how difficult that
- 00:06:51could be to be that young and to have
- 00:06:54millions and millions and millions of
- 00:06:55people having an opinion on everything
- 00:06:58from what you wear to what you say to
- 00:07:00what you do and who you date and just
- 00:07:03everything right like I can't imagine
- 00:07:05being your age and being put under a
- 00:07:08magnifying glass like in the way you
- 00:07:10have which I think is also very unique
- 00:07:12because I think Tik Tok put people under
- 00:07:15a magnifying glass in a way that it also
- 00:07:17never been done before it's like a first
- 00:07:19time thing so what has changed
- 00:07:22about then 15 and you're only 18 now so
- 00:07:26it's only been 3 years right 19 19 now
- 00:07:29you're it's been years in those four
- 00:07:32years what
- 00:07:33has what would you say is the
- 00:07:36biggest change that you've seen
- 00:07:39in who you thought you were then and who
- 00:07:42you are now I think I just you know I
- 00:07:46was in high school it was one day no one
- 00:07:49cared what I did no one cared what I
- 00:07:51wore what I looked like what I said and
- 00:07:54then all of a sudden that was all anyone
- 00:07:56would talk about it it happened so fast
- 00:07:59and I put up a a shield to kind of
- 00:08:02protect myself which helped me but also
- 00:08:06hurt me a little bit because it was hard
- 00:08:08to get out of that shell and I mean I
- 00:08:12think back to some of the things that I
- 00:08:14said in interviews like three years ago
- 00:08:17yeah hate comments don't bother me and I
- 00:08:19was like you went home and cried all
- 00:08:21night because of it like I would say
- 00:08:23things to make people think one thing
- 00:08:26but inside I was very
- 00:08:30sheltered and I went through a a pretty
- 00:08:34big stage for maybe like the first two
- 00:08:37years where I always looked out for the
- 00:08:40best in people and I got myself hurt a
- 00:08:42lot you know people wanted to make
- 00:08:45videos together and and they would
- 00:08:47invite me over for collabs and then they
- 00:08:50would all hang out and I wouldn't be
- 00:08:51invited and I would I would be so
- 00:08:53confused and the excuse was always
- 00:08:56you're too young or you know whatever
- 00:08:58and I was like you guys are just hanging
- 00:08:59out at a house like how am I too young
- 00:09:01for that but not too young to have in
- 00:09:03all your videos and it took a lot of you
- 00:09:08know distancing myself a lot of talking
- 00:09:13to my family going to therapy you know
- 00:09:16figuring out who I am outside of anyone
- 00:09:19watching
- 00:09:21to be a little bit more content with
- 00:09:24myself and understand that I don't need
- 00:09:27to have all of these people people like
- 00:09:29me you know I'm fine on my own I love
- 00:09:33being by myself I'm fine with the
- 00:09:34friends that I have in my corner that
- 00:09:36I've had for years are the new friends
- 00:09:39that come into my life that actually
- 00:09:41love me for me and you know there's
- 00:09:45nothing that I can do I feel like now
- 00:09:49I'm kind of at a point
- 00:09:51where you know whatever like that's kind
- 00:09:55of my motto I always am just like all
- 00:09:57right okay I don't I don't know I don't
- 00:09:59care
- 00:09:59and focusing more on the things that
- 00:10:01really matter to me like it sounds so
- 00:10:03lame cuz I constantly talk about my dogs
- 00:10:05like they're my children but literally
- 00:10:08like spending the day with them taking
- 00:10:10care of them my responsibility being
- 00:10:12them and not myself I don't have to
- 00:10:15worry about work or anything they don't
- 00:10:17care if I have a million followers or
- 00:10:19none like I don't know just focusing
- 00:10:21more on the things that actually matter
- 00:10:24the fans that actually love me no matter
- 00:10:26what like have been there for years or
- 00:10:29brand new and actually like who I am and
- 00:10:32not just what I put out you know yeah
- 00:10:36and it's and it's so hard because so
- 00:10:39much of what you put out is you or is a
- 00:10:42part of you and it can feel like the
- 00:10:44biggest part of you because it gets the
- 00:10:46biggest response yeah and it's it's
- 00:10:48almost confusing in your brain to be
- 00:10:50like when you're with your dogs M it's a
- 00:10:53small part of your life or there's a
- 00:10:55small amount of people there but it's
- 00:10:56actually a bigger yeah bigger importance
- 00:10:59or big significance to you cuz I have so
- 00:11:02much life that no one sees I have so
- 00:11:05much about me that no one knows about
- 00:11:08and I'm fine with that you know I don't
- 00:11:12feel like I need to change myself for
- 00:11:15anyone because I've I did that for so
- 00:11:18long and it was so exhausting and I
- 00:11:20worked so much while being so burnt out
- 00:11:24and just wanting to kind of get away
- 00:11:28from everyone yeah that now what I want
- 00:11:32to do is definitely a lot more important
- 00:11:34than what everyone's telling me to do
- 00:11:36and that's and that's really tough like
- 00:11:38when I've spoken to even like young M
- 00:11:41musicians and and music stars it's like
- 00:11:44most people get their break when they're
- 00:11:45like 15 years old or something like that
- 00:11:47and naturally everyone's older than you
- 00:11:49and as a 15-year-old you're used to
- 00:11:51having parents or people older than you
- 00:11:53telling you what to do and so whether
- 00:11:54it's your manager or whether it's your
- 00:11:56agent or your team or whatever it is
- 00:11:58they book you you and then you're doing
- 00:12:00what they say cuz you're doing what the
- 00:12:01adults say it's kind of normal and now
- 00:12:03that you're an adult yourself you're
- 00:12:05kind of like trying to take that back
- 00:12:08what was it that you felt you did that
- 00:12:10wasn't you or that you felt you were
- 00:12:12doing because the adults are saying to
- 00:12:13do it or what were those things that you
- 00:12:15felt like you moved away from who you
- 00:12:17wanted to be or who you were I think I
- 00:12:21you know for quite some time tried to
- 00:12:26just do whatever anyone said to make
- 00:12:29them like me whether it was how I
- 00:12:31dressed or how I talked or what I said
- 00:12:34anything what type of videos I make I
- 00:12:36was listening to every comment whether
- 00:12:38it was
- 00:12:39like I hate that hoodie well I'm never
- 00:12:41wearing that again like this person
- 00:12:43doesn't like it and dictating every
- 00:12:45decision I made through what other
- 00:12:48people said and I mean
- 00:12:52for a long time the beginning um I was
- 00:12:58only surrounded by a bunch of adults and
- 00:13:0225-year-olds and all of this stuff and
- 00:13:06they would always say how mature I am
- 00:13:09but I was just trying to fit in you know
- 00:13:13I was still in high school still like
- 00:13:16you know you want to be with the cool
- 00:13:18kids so the people that I thought was
- 00:13:20cool I would do anything to be like them
- 00:13:22you know dress different every day or or
- 00:13:25speak about specific things or try to
- 00:13:28sound cool or change myself and it's
- 00:13:31just so not worth it cuz why why am I
- 00:13:35going to do that and how long am I going
- 00:13:37to do that until they realize that it's
- 00:13:40like okay we get it like you like
- 00:13:42whatever we like you don't have to do
- 00:13:44that you know it's just I think it's
- 00:13:48it's so unfair to yourself
- 00:13:50to have to do that all the time I love
- 00:13:54that I love that you use that word
- 00:13:55unfair yeah it's almost like it's just
- 00:13:58unfair to do that to yourself that that
- 00:14:00really hit me and resonated with me
- 00:14:02because it's it's almost like you're
- 00:14:05just doing yourself such a big
- 00:14:07disservice by molding yourself into what
- 00:14:11you think someone wants and that was
- 00:14:12just a thought they had on one day in
- 00:14:15one second in one comment and then and
- 00:14:17then you have no idea who you are I I
- 00:14:20had to sit with myself and say I have no
- 00:14:23idea what I like I have no idea how I
- 00:14:25want to dress I have no idea how I want
- 00:14:27to do my makeup or what's my favorite
- 00:14:29song or what's my favorite movie I just
- 00:14:33I don't know like I do not know anything
- 00:14:36about myself and my answer to every
- 00:14:38question was I don't know and I actually
- 00:14:42had to talk to my therapist about this
- 00:14:44and I was like I say I don't know to
- 00:14:46everything but the thing is I really
- 00:14:49don't know I don't know who I am I feel
- 00:14:52like all I know is what anyone tells me
- 00:14:55to do and I mean it's
- 00:15:00it's a really weird feeling because how
- 00:15:02do you get out of that how do you find
- 00:15:04out what you like but you really just
- 00:15:07have to try things get out of your house
- 00:15:10I was not leaving my
- 00:15:12house ever like I would go through these
- 00:15:15phases where I don't want anyone to talk
- 00:15:16to me I don't want to do anything I just
- 00:15:18want to stay in my room all day watch TV
- 00:15:21like not get ready nothing and I've been
- 00:15:25really low a couple times and I think
- 00:15:29this Pastime that I got really low was
- 00:15:31when I was like okay my parents even
- 00:15:34said they were like We're Not Gonna Let
- 00:15:36You we're not going to sit here and
- 00:15:38watch you rot in bed all day and not do
- 00:15:41anything and just like we can't do that
- 00:15:46that's so unfair and especially when you
- 00:15:47don't live with your parents and they're
- 00:15:49noticing that it's an issue so I had to
- 00:15:53kind of really dig deep and ask the
- 00:15:55questions
- 00:15:56that I didn't ask for so long for
- 00:15:59whatever reason maybe I didn't want to
- 00:16:01know the answer or it was too much or
- 00:16:03scary to figure it out and be your own
- 00:16:06person but I think it's just so much
- 00:16:10easier and I and I think it's also just
- 00:16:14you know being it's really hard when
- 00:16:16you're living your own journey and then
- 00:16:19you realize as you're getting older and
- 00:16:22as you are maturing as as everyone does
- 00:16:24you're looking back going I can't really
- 00:16:26expect my 15-year-old self to know all
- 00:16:28this this anyway like I think you know
- 00:16:31for me when I think about being back to
- 00:16:3315 and I didn't know anything about
- 00:16:35myself and I wasn't dealing with the
- 00:16:36pressures you dealt with or the
- 00:16:38challenges that you had and sure I had
- 00:16:42different challenges and different
- 00:16:43stresses as I'm sure everyone does has
- 00:16:45their own thing but the point is that as
- 00:16:48a 15-year-old self you don't really know
- 00:16:49what you like anyway because it is true
- 00:16:51you are trying to be with the cool kids
- 00:16:53or you are trying to be like the other
- 00:16:54people and you're getting involved in
- 00:16:56all sorts of things just for people to
- 00:16:57give you approval and valate you and
- 00:17:00then all of a sudden it's amazing that
- 00:17:02you're now coming to that point where
- 00:17:03you're like I want to know and I think
- 00:17:05what I love about what you said is and
- 00:17:07it's because I said this often in my
- 00:17:08books and my work is that knowing what
- 00:17:11movies you like what foods you like what
- 00:17:13songs you like that is the beginning of
- 00:17:14self-awareness like it's that basic it's
- 00:17:17it's not this
- 00:17:18complicated Deep thing that it begins
- 00:17:21with it really starts with those things
- 00:17:23it starts with these really simple
- 00:17:25everyday choices that we all have to
- 00:17:27make so I want to ask you simple
- 00:17:29everyday choices what is it now that
- 00:17:31Charlie likes like what is it that
- 00:17:33Charlie has discovered that not Charlie
- 00:17:35demilio but Charlie enjoys and
- 00:17:37appreciates that what are the joys of
- 00:17:39life that your dogs obviously you
- 00:17:40mention but what are some of the things
- 00:17:42that brings you Joy that you feel you're
- 00:17:44discovering for the first time things
- 00:17:47that bring me joy I love cleaning that's
- 00:17:51something that sounds so lame but is so
- 00:17:53therapeutic I love um what about
- 00:17:56cleaning cuz I want to know I want to
- 00:17:59know now the way you said that was so
- 00:18:00much genuiness I'm like all right what
- 00:18:02about cleaning honestly to me it's just
- 00:18:06therapeutic like put something on my TV
- 00:18:08clean my room organize my stuff make it
- 00:18:13how I like it you know because there can
- 00:18:15be certain things that oh well you know
- 00:18:20this is cool I guess I like this but
- 00:18:23what picture do I want out what am I
- 00:18:26proud of and want presented how do I
- 00:18:28like my bed made how do I like my
- 00:18:31Chargers to be set up it's like such
- 00:18:33minuscule things that I think make such
- 00:18:35a difference and it also makes you feel
- 00:18:38productive and makes me feel like I have
- 00:18:40my stuff together and I mean as someone
- 00:18:44who struggles with obsessive compulsive
- 00:18:47disorder that's one of my like big
- 00:18:50things where I feel like when I'm doing
- 00:18:51that I'm almost clearing my head so I
- 00:18:54don't know it's just something that I
- 00:18:56genuinely enjoy doing and I think is
- 00:18:58super fun like this morning cuz I've had
- 00:19:00such bad jet lag I was like okay I can
- 00:19:03either try to go to sleep for the next 3
- 00:19:05hours or get up and clean the kitchen
- 00:19:09and play with the dogs and I was like
- 00:19:11all right let's just get up and do it
- 00:19:13you know I'll get up in 5 minutes and
- 00:19:17we'll start to do this stuff you order
- 00:19:18your coffee and do all the things that
- 00:19:20you need to do to feel together and that
- 00:19:22made me happy and I was really proud I
- 00:19:24did that and I started my day on a great
- 00:19:27note and now I feel great so it's just
- 00:19:29like little things that I just I find so
- 00:19:32much fun in mhm yeah no I I mean the
- 00:19:35team will attested this too I'm like
- 00:19:37addicted to organizing shelves and
- 00:19:39bookshelves so I'll take you to the
- 00:19:41house afterwards and I have like I have
- 00:19:43this bookshelf in there that I
- 00:19:44personally curated and like everything
- 00:19:46and like even if my wife moves one book
- 00:19:49I'll notice it and I'll be like where's
- 00:19:50that book going but it's like I get that
- 00:19:53like organizing spaces and creating
- 00:19:56spaces to be spaces you want to live in
- 00:19:58and sit in like even this room right now
- 00:20:00like I curated it because I want to be
- 00:20:02in this space and I want it to feel
- 00:20:04comfortable for my guests and for myself
- 00:20:06and I want it to also spark curiosity or
- 00:20:08whatever it may be and I think it's
- 00:20:10interesting how all these tiny things
- 00:20:12when you're intentional about them they
- 00:20:14can spark so much joy without trying
- 00:20:16that hard and I mean it might be a
- 00:20:19little bit of
- 00:20:20like the very few parts of my life that
- 00:20:23I genuinely get to control you know it's
- 00:20:26not up to anyone else it's not you know
- 00:20:30do it this way or wear this or show this
- 00:20:34product it's like I just get to do this
- 00:20:36and make it how I want the way I want it
- 00:20:39on my own schedule and I'm fully in
- 00:20:42control of this task start to finish
- 00:20:45which you know yeah it's a way to deal
- 00:20:48with being a little bit of a control
- 00:20:50freak no and you're right I think that's
- 00:20:52such a great point it's rare that we
- 00:20:54have that much certainty and control
- 00:20:57over anything in life
- 00:20:59and if we don't do it at home we're
- 00:21:01going to potentially try and do it
- 00:21:02everywhere else where we can't and no I
- 00:21:04think that's a great point what else
- 00:21:05would you say that you've discovered
- 00:21:07about your likes and dislikes like what
- 00:21:08was something that you thought you liked
- 00:21:10before or someone had told you to like
- 00:21:12before and now you're like uh I you
- 00:21:15change now like that's not how I feel
- 00:21:17about it o um there's definitely a few
- 00:21:20I'd say one thing that I started to
- 00:21:25specifically like my own way was music I
- 00:21:29you know would listen to whatever's
- 00:21:31popular and I feel like now I really
- 00:21:33only listen to the songs that I
- 00:21:35genuinely enjoy listening to or I relate
- 00:21:37to and even if it's the most random
- 00:21:40playlist ever where it's like rap sad
- 00:21:43music country music like allinone I
- 00:21:46enjoy listening to that and I don't have
- 00:21:48to listen to whatever everyone else is
- 00:21:51listening to and I also can if I want to
- 00:21:53if I want to listen to whatever's the
- 00:21:56top 100 I'm going to do that you know
- 00:21:59even in front of other people like I can
- 00:22:02play what I like and I'll take
- 00:22:04suggestions and not just what's your
- 00:22:06favorite song well whatever one's the
- 00:22:08top one right now like you know having
- 00:22:10that to myself is also something really
- 00:22:12nice have you discovered any new artists
- 00:22:15or anyone recently that you're like
- 00:22:16someone that maybe we haven't heard of
- 00:22:18or someone that maybe is less heard of
- 00:22:20that you're like well my favorite artist
- 00:22:22his name is PIM Stones he doesn't make
- 00:22:25music anymore which is really really sad
- 00:22:27but he's my favorite artist ever he's
- 00:22:29made like some of the most incredible
- 00:22:32songs I've ever heard and they're just
- 00:22:34so beautiful to listen to and one of
- 00:22:37them has been my favorite song for a
- 00:22:39while actually someone at my dance
- 00:22:41studio when I was like probably 13 had a
- 00:22:44solo to it wow and ever since then I've
- 00:22:47been obsessed and he only has like two
- 00:22:51songs out on Spotify but I will listen
- 00:22:54to the two of them just on repeat
- 00:22:56forever and ever and ever cuz they're so
- 00:22:58so good wow wow that's amazing yeah I
- 00:23:01love it I'll check it out only two songs
- 00:23:03on Spotify so him Stones all right I'm
- 00:23:05going to go check it out after this
- 00:23:06interview no I love that and I think
- 00:23:08it's really refreshing and it must feel
- 00:23:11so good I can see in your face so you
- 00:23:13just seem so like genuinely happy
- 00:23:15talking about the things that spark joy
- 00:23:17that bring you that sense of comfort and
- 00:23:19ease and make life that much more what
- 00:23:22if someone right now is listening and
- 00:23:25they're like Charlie I'm struggling with
- 00:23:27what what you just said like I find it
- 00:23:29hard to be open and honest about the
- 00:23:32things I like because people make fun of
- 00:23:34me or ridicule me or maybe people tell
- 00:23:37me that's not cool or whatever it is
- 00:23:39like what has slowly given you the
- 00:23:42confidence to get there and what what do
- 00:23:44you think people need to hear to almost
- 00:23:46feel confident in themselves to say that
- 00:23:49I think it just starts with giving
- 00:23:50yourself permission to be open with
- 00:23:53yourself because it really like as much
- 00:23:57as it sucks to hear like it is all in
- 00:24:00your head you have to work on your selft
- 00:24:02talk and I think positive selft talk is
- 00:24:05something that is so often overlooked
- 00:24:07because everyone's so overly critical of
- 00:24:10themselves you see your face you know in
- 00:24:13the reflection of your phone you're in
- 00:24:15pictures background of photos you're
- 00:24:17like oh I hate this one but this one
- 00:24:19posted it and I can't do anything about
- 00:24:21it you know you have to once you start
- 00:24:24speaking in a more positive tone about
- 00:24:26yourself and the people around you the
- 00:24:28easier it is to feel more positive you
- 00:24:30know instead of oh I hate the way I look
- 00:24:33today you know what my hair is doing
- 00:24:35something different and I kind of like
- 00:24:36it you know starting with those little
- 00:24:38little things that sound so so like it's
- 00:24:43so tiny who who even cares you know it's
- 00:24:45in my head it's not affecting anyone but
- 00:24:48it's affecting yourself so I think just
- 00:24:50the more you can be positive and open
- 00:24:53with yourself and not so overly critical
- 00:24:57of yourself if you like a movie and no
- 00:25:00one else likes that movie doesn't mean
- 00:25:02it's a bad movie and you you can't like
- 00:25:03it you can still enjoy watching it and
- 00:25:07okay we just have different opinions
- 00:25:08that's normal and they probably like
- 00:25:12like stuff I don't like but that doesn't
- 00:25:14take away from what they like it's just
- 00:25:16you know the way you talk to yourself is
- 00:25:18so important yeah you're so right and
- 00:25:20it's it's so subtle like those thoughts
- 00:25:23as you just said like I love that switch
- 00:25:25that you just made between I don't like
- 00:25:27how my hair look looks today or oh my
- 00:25:29head's doing something different today
- 00:25:30and that's interesting or it looks cool
- 00:25:32whatever it may be there's an amazing
- 00:25:35book uh for those who who are more
- 00:25:37interested in what Charlie's talking
- 00:25:38about right now it's called psycho
- 00:25:39cybernetics and it's this whole idea of
- 00:25:42how our thoughts completely define our
- 00:25:45reality and how as you just said studies
- 00:25:49showed that we have 60 to 80,000
- 00:25:51thoughts per day and 80% of them are
- 00:25:54negative and repetitive so we're often
- 00:25:56having the same thought which is like I
- 00:25:58don't like how I look or I don't like
- 00:26:01how my hair looks or I don't like this
- 00:26:03about me or whatever it may be and you
- 00:26:05keep having that thought oh yeah and
- 00:26:07then it just Spirals and then that's all
- 00:26:09you feel about yourself and then it
- 00:26:11becomes your reality so that book really
- 00:26:13helped me it's it's an old school
- 00:26:15classic in this space but it convinces
- 00:26:18you that you can change your thoughts
- 00:26:20and it's not like you're lying to
- 00:26:22yourself right like I I want to address
- 00:26:23this for people who think that positive
- 00:26:26this is not about positive thinking this
- 00:26:27is not like looking at yourself and
- 00:26:28going I'm amazing and I'm special like
- 00:26:31that stuff doesn't work either but it's
- 00:26:32almost just tweaking your thoughts
- 00:26:34slightly to being how do you change from
- 00:26:36being critical to just being curious and
- 00:26:39that little switch can change everything
- 00:26:41exactly and it's I think it's so
- 00:26:42important because getting to the point
- 00:26:45where you have a more positive selft
- 00:26:49talk it's it's not linear you know
- 00:26:52you're going to have dips and and bad
- 00:26:54days and good days and bad months and
- 00:26:56good months you just that's that's how
- 00:26:58how it works but I notice when I start
- 00:27:00to see myself slip and realize I've been
- 00:27:04super critical of myself and you know
- 00:27:06what I've had such a bad week that's
- 00:27:08probably why I'm feeling so insecure and
- 00:27:11maybe I'm taking it out on other people
- 00:27:13or I'm I don't want to leave my house
- 00:27:15because I've critiqued everything about
- 00:27:17the way I look and not focus on one
- 00:27:19positive thing at all you know it really
- 00:27:23that's when I noticed when I started to
- 00:27:25dip again how important it is to really
- 00:27:27focus on being kind to yourself yeah and
- 00:27:31I and I I I hope people really hear that
- 00:27:35because I think the reason why we're
- 00:27:37hard on others is because we're so hard
- 00:27:39on ourselves and the reason we're so
- 00:27:41hard on ourselves is because we're so
- 00:27:42hard on others and it's almost like if
- 00:27:44we were just able to be kinder to the
- 00:27:47stranger our friend our family member
- 00:27:50then I think we'd actually be able to be
- 00:27:52more kind to ourselves and vice versa as
- 00:27:54well even like in friendships and
- 00:27:57relationships I think it's important I
- 00:27:59if you're telling jokes back and forth
- 00:28:02to each other and maybe they're like you
- 00:28:04know how you joke with your friends
- 00:28:06like sometimes it can be a little mean
- 00:28:09I've you know I've done the why don't we
- 00:28:11try and just be really really nice to
- 00:28:13each other for a little bit let's really
- 00:28:15focus on bringing each other up and I've
- 00:28:17actually had that conversation before
- 00:28:18and I think it's something that sounds
- 00:28:22almost corny like let's be super nice to
- 00:28:25each other but it really is helpful to
- 00:28:27have the people that you love and maybe
- 00:28:29you say it when you're a little bit down
- 00:28:30so you know you're not asking for
- 00:28:32compliments you're just asking for a
- 00:28:35more positive environment around you and
- 00:28:37I think that there's something so
- 00:28:39special about that and the people around
- 00:28:41you that love you will definitely be
- 00:28:44open to it you know and I think that
- 00:28:47there's also something in that the
- 00:28:48people that you have around you every
- 00:28:49day you need
- 00:28:51to try and build up with you MH yeah and
- 00:28:55that's I get I get that people find that
- 00:28:57hard because I'm also in England we
- 00:28:59banter a lot and so I banter a lot with
- 00:29:01my team with my wife like if if people
- 00:29:04see me and my wife together like they're
- 00:29:05like you guys hate each other because
- 00:29:07we'd go so hard and even my friends I
- 00:29:09just came back from London for my
- 00:29:10sister's wedding and I was there with
- 00:29:12all my boys and I was so we're so
- 00:29:14intense with each other and that's how
- 00:29:17close we are like the more intense we
- 00:29:18can be but you're right that sometimes
- 00:29:20and it's really interesting because when
- 00:29:21you get into a one-on-one with a friend
- 00:29:23they'll say how much they need the
- 00:29:25opposite like when you're with a group
- 00:29:26of people and you're all ban it's but
- 00:29:28when you're oneon-one with you how
- 00:29:31someone's like you know I need a bit of
- 00:29:33encouragement need to know that you
- 00:29:35think I'm doing good at this or whatever
- 00:29:37it may be so and also like don't be
- 00:29:39afraid to be the person that is going to
- 00:29:42text all the people around you every
- 00:29:44time you see them do something I'm so
- 00:29:45proud of you like you looked amazing at
- 00:29:47this or this was so cool that you did
- 00:29:49this like be that person be the annoying
- 00:29:52person you know I wish I did it more and
- 00:29:55I should and that's something that I'll
- 00:29:57take into the the rest of the day um but
- 00:29:59this morning even I I had a conversation
- 00:30:01with my mom and she's got back into
- 00:30:04modeling she's in Louisiana right now so
- 00:30:06I haven't seen her in a couple days and
- 00:30:08she was sending me photos and I didn't
- 00:30:10answer my phone for a little bit just
- 00:30:12because I've been jetlagged and crazy
- 00:30:14and I was like gez like if I sent her
- 00:30:18something I would want to hear back how
- 00:30:19proud she is of me so let me just go
- 00:30:22over the top because sometimes you need
- 00:30:25to be that person especially if that's
- 00:30:28the energy that you're trying to get
- 00:30:29back you can't get that without giving
- 00:30:30it too yeah well said and how's that
- 00:30:33been because obviously that's a big part
- 00:30:35of it right especially with the new new
- 00:30:37docy series as well like the new season
- 00:30:38like this idea of your whole family is
- 00:30:41now in the spotlight and it's almost
- 00:30:43like people just lump everyone together
- 00:30:46especially when it's a a big family and
- 00:30:47everyone's got exciting things happening
- 00:30:49and you know I've obvious obviously
- 00:30:51interviewed your whole family before so
- 00:30:53I've I've sat with them and it's it's
- 00:30:55wonderful and at the same time it's hard
- 00:30:56to find your own space and cve your own
- 00:30:59identity right like that's challenging
- 00:31:01yeah I think that the family Dynamic is
- 00:31:04something that is really really
- 00:31:07confusing especially for me I'm the
- 00:31:09youngest so you spend all your time
- 00:31:12trying to impress your older sister you
- 00:31:14spend all your time trying to prove
- 00:31:18something to your parents even when
- 00:31:19they're already proud of you you know
- 00:31:22it's really confusing you don't know
- 00:31:24where you fit in I'm like I live with
- 00:31:28sister I don't live with my parents but
- 00:31:30you know I still want the same support
- 00:31:31that I got when I lived with them but I
- 00:31:32can't just go up to their room anytime
- 00:31:35I'm having a bad day they don't know
- 00:31:36what's going on with me all the time
- 00:31:38when we're working together and on a
- 00:31:40shoot you know I I hate to say this but
- 00:31:43sometimes they want more stuff of me or
- 00:31:46whatever it is or we want this H for the
- 00:31:49family and then they'll you know expect
- 00:31:51extra for me and it's like well where do
- 00:31:54I fit in because I'm the youngest but
- 00:31:58sometimes they want the most and well
- 00:32:01you know it gets to the point where it's
- 00:32:03like well they they they're not there
- 00:32:05for me and it's like well you know what
- 00:32:08everyone's doing their own stuff like
- 00:32:10everyone has their own stuff going on
- 00:32:11Dixie is music my mom's modeling my
- 00:32:13dad's doing business stuff
- 00:32:16like there's so much going on for all of
- 00:32:19us at the same time it can get hard to
- 00:32:21celebrate every single achievement when
- 00:32:24there's just four of us all doing
- 00:32:27different things all at the same time
- 00:32:28running from place to place traveling
- 00:32:31you know we're still figuring that out
- 00:32:33now I think while filming season 3 our
- 00:32:36entire family was going through a lot
- 00:32:38like mentally and with work so it's hard
- 00:32:43to watch back those episodes
- 00:32:46because we were just all in such a
- 00:32:48different place and so confused at where
- 00:32:52we all stand and taking it out on each
- 00:32:55other which I think is
- 00:32:58probably the biggest regret I have
- 00:33:01through all of this with my family is
- 00:33:03like we need to have each other's backs
- 00:33:06through everything cuz you know through
- 00:33:10it all you work with people you make
- 00:33:11friends
- 00:33:13whatever you have to have family or
- 00:33:16people that you've kind of adopted as
- 00:33:20family that are there to support you
- 00:33:23when there's no cameras or when there's
- 00:33:25no likes or followers anything like you
- 00:33:27need that
- 00:33:28and the hardest time for all of us was
- 00:33:31when we didn't have each other to lean
- 00:33:32on and that is really really shown in
- 00:33:35season three and like even when I see
- 00:33:38Clips I'm like I don't want to see it at
- 00:33:40all like that was such a hard time for
- 00:33:42all of us and it's so embarrassing at
- 00:33:45times to see that like people posting it
- 00:33:48reposting it edits of it edits of times
- 00:33:51where I was like really really really
- 00:33:53struggling and hearing people she's so
- 00:33:55dramatic but you hear a tenth of what
- 00:33:57was actually going on you know so it's
- 00:34:00it's a lot or things are you know maybe
- 00:34:03I was upset about one thing but in the
- 00:34:06show it looks like I'm upset about
- 00:34:07something else it's like a whole bunch
- 00:34:09of stuff that's just I don't even want
- 00:34:12to pay attention to it it must be so
- 00:34:14challenging like I've always I've always
- 00:34:17thought about it like having a show
- 00:34:19where every one of your feelings and
- 00:34:21emotions is being
- 00:34:23documented and then broadcast sounds
- 00:34:25like the most challenging thing ever
- 00:34:27it's a lot yeah it's like even just that
- 00:34:30as a premise and I know it's been around
- 00:34:31forever and you know families have been
- 00:34:33followed forever and there's this format
- 00:34:36has been around forever but I'm like it
- 00:34:38doesn't get easier because of that
- 00:34:41because as humans we love to watch Drama
- 00:34:43We love to watch the gossip we want to
- 00:34:46see the scoop the show has like twists
- 00:34:49and changes and you know characters that
- 00:34:52are upset at each other and you have all
- 00:34:54of this going on but then behind all of
- 00:34:56that there's a real human with real
- 00:34:58emotions trying to figure it all out
- 00:35:01have you been able to separate like
- 00:35:03yourself and then the character on the
- 00:35:04show too like do you feel or do you feel
- 00:35:06that's just so in interrelated that
- 00:35:08you're like in ways yes for sure
- 00:35:12but like people don't realize when
- 00:35:15you're filming sometimes you forget you
- 00:35:17have a mic on and you say something and
- 00:35:18you're like it really wasn't that deep
- 00:35:20like yeah it's not that important
- 00:35:23sometimes you're really really upset or
- 00:35:27you're maybe mentally struggling a
- 00:35:29little bit and you don't have a reason
- 00:35:32cuz sometimes you don't need a reason
- 00:35:34sometimes you just feel really bad and
- 00:35:36that happens so you go through these
- 00:35:42well why are you well what was happening
- 00:35:44you know was it this person's fault and
- 00:35:45it's like I don't know I was just really
- 00:35:48feeling bad and I didn't have a handle
- 00:35:51on it and I had to film so you know it's
- 00:35:54like I don't get a choice of how how
- 00:35:58I how I go into filming you know I can
- 00:36:02try and go in with a positive mindset
- 00:36:04but after a couple hours you know like
- 00:36:06I'm tired and you see how maybe I was
- 00:36:08really feeling that day maybe it's
- 00:36:10nothing that was at all in the show like
- 00:36:13people watching have no idea but it is
- 00:36:16so many real emotions that it's really
- 00:36:18really hard to separate the two but
- 00:36:23hopefully you know if another season
- 00:36:25happens I'll be able to do that and why
- 00:36:27do you feel though in season 3 that it
- 00:36:29got harder with family than easier like
- 00:36:31you'd hope that season 3 like made it
- 00:36:33easier but why do you think it got
- 00:36:35harder is it just that everyone's more
- 00:36:36busy now or yeah I think we were just
- 00:36:38all going through so much individually
- 00:36:41and constantly taking it out on each
- 00:36:43other and you know that's building
- 00:36:45blocks to working with your family no
- 00:36:48family that works together is perfect
- 00:36:49all the time and if you say you are you
- 00:36:51are so wrong especially when you know we
- 00:36:54talk about it all the time like family
- 00:36:56is everything but when you're in those
- 00:36:58moments where you're like I'm pissed at
- 00:37:01this person in my family because of
- 00:37:03maybe it's something stupid but to me
- 00:37:06it's like it feels like a lot it feels
- 00:37:09like the entire world on my shoulders
- 00:37:12for maybe something that isn't that big
- 00:37:14of a deal but it feels like that to me
- 00:37:16you know it's
- 00:37:17just we were all going through so much
- 00:37:20at the same time that there was no way
- 00:37:24that these cameras weren't going to
- 00:37:25catch it it sounds sounds like even even
- 00:37:28though obviously you said that you know
- 00:37:30when you're a kid you still want your
- 00:37:31family to take care of you and obviously
- 00:37:33now you're in a position where obviously
- 00:37:35you take care of yourself you you live
- 00:37:37with your sister but what would you say
- 00:37:40has been the biggest skills you've
- 00:37:42learned in how to take care of yourself
- 00:37:45when you don't have your family to rely
- 00:37:46on I don't even know I feel like that's
- 00:37:50something that is so confusing to me
- 00:37:54still I feel so independent because you
- 00:37:58know I'm traveling without any of my
- 00:38:01friends or family I'm on these big work
- 00:38:05calls like I have no training for this I
- 00:38:09I didn't even finish High School like I
- 00:38:11don't know how to do this I don't know
- 00:38:13if I'm making the right decision I don't
- 00:38:15know if this is you know good or bad I
- 00:38:18still call my dad all the time and I'm
- 00:38:20like okay but seriously what do you
- 00:38:22think about this because I like this
- 00:38:25sounds not that cool to me but
- 00:38:27apparently it's really like I have no
- 00:38:29idea how this works and you know the
- 00:38:32more I do it the more I get comfortable
- 00:38:35and learn but I missed so much of the
- 00:38:39normal growing up going to college and
- 00:38:42then coming back for Thanksgiving or
- 00:38:44Christmas or whatever it is that I kind
- 00:38:47of had to like race to figure it out
- 00:38:49because it was one day you're a kid and
- 00:38:52you're in high school and you have no
- 00:38:53responsibilities and now you have people
- 00:38:56that are working for you and and you're
- 00:38:59responsible for them and you're
- 00:39:00responsible for everything that you do
- 00:39:02and you're not allowed to mess up but
- 00:39:04I'm 16 I don't know how to not mess up I
- 00:39:06don't know anything like how am I
- 00:39:09supposed to learn that without having
- 00:39:12these real life experiences so I think
- 00:39:13the more as time goes on and the more
- 00:39:16I'm put in these situations where I have
- 00:39:18to be independent and a grownup you know
- 00:39:21the easier it gets but it's still
- 00:39:23something that I really have to figure
- 00:39:25out in each indiv ual situation yeah I'm
- 00:39:2936 and I still don't know how not to
- 00:39:31mess up like it's just because I think
- 00:39:33what we don't realize is you've got
- 00:39:35yourself and your identity like you as
- 00:39:37an individual which is always changing
- 00:39:39so whether you're 36 or whether you're
- 00:39:4119 you're still dealing with that on top
- 00:39:44of that you've now got the industry is
- 00:39:45always changing so like the platforms
- 00:39:47are changing and the business is
- 00:39:49changing and the social whatever all of
- 00:39:50that's always changing so you've never
- 00:39:52done it before and most people have
- 00:39:54never done it before so no matter how
- 00:39:56smart someone was 5 months ago
- 00:39:59Everything's changed and so everything's
- 00:40:00being updated and then on top of all of
- 00:40:03that you've got everyone around you
- 00:40:05who's constantly changing and growing
- 00:40:06and evolving and so it's so hard to ever
- 00:40:09feel you ever have a handle on on all
- 00:40:12areas of your life yeah and so
- 00:40:14definitely as a 16-year-old now a
- 00:40:1619-year-old like it's it's so much to
- 00:40:19learn quickly and I think you had your
- 00:40:21you recently had your prom or you did
- 00:40:22your prom here right like you yeah I had
- 00:40:25I had two we did one on the show
- 00:40:28and then I went to my high school prom
- 00:40:30back in my hometown yeah which was
- 00:40:32really fun and like the bit of senior
- 00:40:35year that I got to have which was really
- 00:40:38nice because I didn't get that at all
- 00:40:41and a lot of kids didn't during Co and
- 00:40:44everything so I'm definitely not the
- 00:40:46only person feeling like this a lot of
- 00:40:48freshman sophomore year at College like
- 00:40:51people didn't get that people didn't get
- 00:40:53that very very intrical part of growing
- 00:40:56up or whether it's your first job like
- 00:40:58this was my first job I had never had
- 00:41:02any true responsibility before and I
- 00:41:05don't know how and there's no rule book
- 00:41:07to say well this is how you be an adult
- 00:41:09so it's kind of
- 00:41:11just figuring it out and messing up
- 00:41:14along the way but when you mess up and
- 00:41:16you have so many people telling you how
- 00:41:19you messed up and how that's horrible
- 00:41:20and you're are doing all of these things
- 00:41:23wrong you're like yeah I know but this
- 00:41:25is all I know how to do kind of
- 00:41:28just every day learn a little bit and
- 00:41:32just continue to do your best cuz that's
- 00:41:34all you can do yeah yeah and do you know
- 00:41:36what it's interesting because we're
- 00:41:38hearing that from you and I think
- 00:41:39everyone who's listening right now is
- 00:41:40going that's me too like you know I
- 00:41:42think it doesn't matter how old you are
- 00:41:44or how wise you are or how smart or
- 00:41:48whether you have your own business or
- 00:41:49you don't or whe we're just all feeling
- 00:41:52that way because everyone is just trying
- 00:41:56to do their best and sometimes their
- 00:41:58best is not good enough for everyone
- 00:41:59else but that's all they could give and
- 00:42:02I feel that for anyone and everyone
- 00:42:05today and so I think what you're saying
- 00:42:07resonates or feels very relatable at
- 00:42:09least even to me and I'm sure everyone
- 00:42:11who's listening is thinking that as well
- 00:42:12like I'm just trying yeah and that's
- 00:42:15like the normal human experience and I
- 00:42:18definitely get on myself about it
- 00:42:21but everyone's just doing their best
- 00:42:24like my parents are still figuring out
- 00:42:25who they are you know it's ever changing
- 00:42:29like my grandmother before she passed
- 00:42:33started to get a a handle on all of the
- 00:42:36Social Media stuff and like had to watch
- 00:42:38me she would watch YouTube videos or
- 00:42:40like see see things online articles and
- 00:42:43she would be like I heard you did this
- 00:42:45and I'm like well that's not true that's
- 00:42:46just like an article you know and she's
- 00:42:48like no no no but I saw it in the press
- 00:42:50and I was like yeah I know but it's not
- 00:42:52it's not true so we like had to get a
- 00:42:55handle on that but she was changing and
- 00:42:57she was evolving with the times and she
- 00:42:59didn't know how it worked and she was
- 00:43:01you know she was she was a lot older and
- 00:43:04and still figuring out who she is and
- 00:43:07well how do I do this and and I want to
- 00:43:09watch you but I have to discover this
- 00:43:11whole new thing like everyone is
- 00:43:13learning something and she was just
- 00:43:16doing her best to watch her
- 00:43:18grandchildren on social media like it's
- 00:43:20something that is so cute and something
- 00:43:22that seems so simple to me like we'll
- 00:43:25just download Tik Tok and watch my
- 00:43:26videos
- 00:43:29but learn once you realize that
- 00:43:32literally every is just try to do their
- 00:43:35best to get to the next day like you can
- 00:43:39be a lot easier on yourself but also a
- 00:43:40lot easier on everyone around you mhh
- 00:43:43and also even just what you said about
- 00:43:45your grandmother like learning about how
- 00:43:49she's reading something that sounds so
- 00:43:51true and you're like no it didn't happen
- 00:43:53that way and it's funny cuz I go through
- 00:43:56similar things with me my family so my
- 00:43:58parents will read an article about me or
- 00:44:00whatever and they'll get really upset
- 00:44:01for me or they'll get offended for me
- 00:44:04because there's something in it that
- 00:44:05they don't like or whatever it is or
- 00:44:07there's something said about the family
- 00:44:08which you must have to deal with way
- 00:44:10more than I do because your family's in
- 00:44:12the spotlight too but then they're like
- 00:44:14oh well why did they say that about the
- 00:44:15family and this and that and I'm like I
- 00:44:17didn't say anything like you know it's
- 00:44:19almost like I didn't even talk about
- 00:44:21that I didn't mention anything it's just
- 00:44:22someone coming up with something yeah
- 00:44:25and I can't imagine for you like it's
- 00:44:27like the clickbait Articles I'm like I'm
- 00:44:30telling you that this isn't real or
- 00:44:32she'd like see someone online she's like
- 00:44:35I don't like them and why they said
- 00:44:38something about you three years ago well
- 00:44:39they're my friends now she's like I
- 00:44:41don't know I don't like them like all
- 00:44:44right you're going to think whatever you
- 00:44:46think like that's fine she was so cute
- 00:44:48and so so supportive like she spent all
- 00:44:51day on her iPad just watching YouTube
- 00:44:53compilations of my Tik toks and every
- 00:44:55time I see her she'd be like need stop
- 00:44:57cursing on the internet and I was like I

- 00:45:58that you found like I know you're close
- 00:46:01with marel who I love too he's such a I
- 00:46:04I love marquel's energy I've only met
- 00:46:06him a couple of times but he's so
- 00:46:07awesome have you found that you've got a
- 00:46:10good group of friends around you in the
- 00:46:13industry because what I found is that so
- 00:46:16I have a bunch of great friends back in
- 00:46:17London who are like my best friends like
- 00:46:19my best man at my wedding and like my
- 00:46:21closest friends that I grew up with and
- 00:46:23I speak to them like I speak to my best
- 00:46:25friend like three times a week still
- 00:46:26because it's so important to me and I
- 00:46:29need it and at the same time I also need
- 00:46:31friends who are in the industry because
- 00:46:33there are certain things that we can all
- 00:46:35understand about the industry kind of
- 00:46:37like the idea of yeah don't trust the
- 00:46:39Press on that and whatever because they
- 00:46:40already know that because they go
- 00:46:41through the same stuff do you find I it
- 00:46:44sounds like you have a great group of
- 00:46:45friends back at home do you find that
- 00:46:47you've also found good friends in the
- 00:46:49industry that you can kind of compare
- 00:46:51notes with a bit too and be like oh I
- 00:46:53just went through that this is how I'm
- 00:46:55feeling yeah definitely I mean marquel's
- 00:46:57like he's family to me he has
- 00:47:03shown so much to me just as a person
- 00:47:07whether it's talking to me oneon-one or
- 00:47:10defending me online or you know
- 00:47:13defending me to the people around him
- 00:47:15like he is someone that every person
- 00:47:18that meets him has so much amazing
- 00:47:20things to say about him and I'm so
- 00:47:22thankful that I have him in my life
- 00:47:24whether it's like we're doing nothing or
- 00:47:27we're out with a bunch of people and I
- 00:47:29we want to have a dance party in the
- 00:47:30middle of the dance floor and it's just
- 00:47:31us to like we'll do it or in the middle
- 00:47:34of a restaurant whatever it is like I
- 00:47:35love that but I've definitely found a
- 00:47:38lot of people that are in the industry
- 00:47:41and a lot of the friendships that I have
- 00:47:43I tend to keep quiet about and a lot of
- 00:47:46the friendships that I have I've met
- 00:47:48them in very very weird ways because how
- 00:47:52am I supposed to meet people you know I
- 00:47:54don't go out super often I don't
- 00:47:57I am not usually around people my own
- 00:47:59age like a lot of my friends that I met
- 00:48:02they were actually dancers at the Kids
- 00:48:06Choice Awards and we just clicked and I
- 00:48:10started to hang out with them and I
- 00:48:12really liked them and they're really
- 00:48:13cool people and they're in an industry
- 00:48:16that I'm so fascinated by and yeah they
- 00:48:20do so much similar things to me but it's
- 00:48:22also different and I think that that's
- 00:48:24really special and after meeting it
- 00:48:27was really refreshing to be around
- 00:48:30people my own age and also just have
- 00:48:35people that are hardworking and
- 00:48:38determined and not competitive with me
- 00:48:40at all and just happy to see me happy
- 00:48:43and I can have fun with whether we're
- 00:48:44filming or not you know but even like my
- 00:48:47boyfriend he's in the industry and you
- 00:48:50know we we tend to handle things a
- 00:48:51little bit differently but sometimes I I
- 00:48:54have to be like it's not worth it you
- 00:48:56know we don't have to respond we don't
- 00:48:57have to do anything like it's not worth
- 00:48:59it I know you you know me whether people
- 00:49:03are saying things about me or people are
- 00:49:04saying things about our relationship you
- 00:49:06know having each other to kind of
- 00:49:10navigate
- 00:49:11that on our own is is really nice
- 00:49:14because it's
- 00:49:15also what two 19-year-olds in a
- 00:49:18relationship have their lives together
- 00:49:21you know there's ups and downs like
- 00:49:25whether I'm working all the time time or
- 00:49:27he's working all the time or I'm
- 00:49:28traveling or whatever it is like there's
- 00:49:31always so much going on that can so
- 00:49:33easily put a strain on a relationship
- 00:49:35and also just coming into adulthood with
- 00:49:39two teenagers that have no idea what
- 00:49:41they're doing and just trying their best
- 00:49:43like you know it's been really confusing
- 00:49:47to navigate but also really refreshing
- 00:49:49to have someone else there that's
- 00:49:52like just trying to figure it out day by
- 00:49:55day mhm it's almost yeah it's almost
- 00:49:57easier in one sense because you have
- 00:49:59someone to bounce it off of as opposed
- 00:50:01to you're like am I crazy are you crazy
- 00:50:03is this like is this okay you know so
- 00:50:07it's it's really nice do you do you
- 00:50:09think the hardest part about success and
- 00:50:11fame is having a relationship in the
- 00:50:14public eye would you say that that's the
- 00:50:16hardest part in terms of when it comes
- 00:50:18to your relationships or that's not
- 00:50:20sometimes I feel
- 00:50:22like you know when two people that are
- 00:50:25in a relationship have like
- 00:50:27an off week or whatever there can be the
- 00:50:32whole this person didn't like their
- 00:50:33photo or they haven't posted together
- 00:50:35they're broken up or this person's
- 00:50:37starting a rumor like even if you you
- 00:50:40two are struggling that's for you to go
- 00:50:42through and handle it however is
- 00:50:44appropriate whether you guys part ways
- 00:50:46or continue to work through things
- 00:50:47together like no relationship is perfect
- 00:50:50ever you have moments where so much is
- 00:50:54going on like during dancing with the
- 00:50:56star
- 00:50:57I was dancing s days a week I was never
- 00:51:00home he was like I felt like I didn't
- 00:51:03have a girlfriend and that was really
- 00:51:06hard it was hard on my parents you know
- 00:51:08like it's a lot and especially for two
- 00:51:11young teenagers to go through like we
- 00:51:14don't we don't know how to do this no
- 00:51:16one knows how to do this so we're just
- 00:51:18doing our best and there's ups and downs
- 00:51:21but we work through it and that's just
- 00:51:24being a person you know yeah yeah yeah
- 00:51:27no absolutely and and and just the idea
- 00:51:31of it is interesting when you've got two
- 00:51:33people who have crazy lives and and have
- 00:51:35different Journeys and have different
- 00:51:37you know commitments and family
- 00:51:39commitments and there's just so much
- 00:51:40going on to keep up with it all what
- 00:51:42have you found what has helped you both
- 00:51:45kind of keep up with each other's
- 00:51:47schedules in each other's lives because
- 00:51:48that's not going to change at least not
- 00:51:51right now and so how what what has
- 00:51:53helped what has worked I think you know
- 00:51:56we've obviously talked about this so
- 00:51:58much just as a whole I was I was just
- 00:52:02gone for almost two weeks and we were on
- 00:52:05different time zones just trying to text
- 00:52:08and update each other but it it's
- 00:52:10figuring out what each other needs you
- 00:52:13know if he wants me to keep him updated
- 00:52:16then I'll keep him updated because
- 00:52:17that's what he needs if he if I need him
- 00:52:21to tell me what's going on in his week
- 00:52:24so I don't feel left out like that's
- 00:52:26totally cool that's what I need it's
- 00:52:27just having that conversation and
- 00:52:29realizing that people's needs change and
- 00:52:32adapting with that and not feeling like
- 00:52:35well I don't want to make him upset like
- 00:52:37he's working a lot and I know he's super
- 00:52:39busy like I need a shoulder to lean on
- 00:52:41it's also having the conversation like
- 00:52:43sometimes I'll literally say I'm really
- 00:52:46really sensitive right now like I just
- 00:52:47need some extra support and then he
- 00:52:50knows to well she needs this right now
- 00:52:52okay like that's totally cool that's two
- 00:52:55people in a Rel relationship doing
- 00:52:57whatever they can to make the other
- 00:52:58person happy just normal human things
- 00:53:02and definitely not worrying about what
- 00:53:05anyone online has to say it's so not
- 00:53:08worth it it really isn't cuz 99% of
- 00:53:11these people are looking for you to
- 00:53:13respond like even today I woke up to
- 00:53:17some crazy person talking about me and
- 00:53:19like the most wildly disrespectful ways
- 00:53:23like I've really seen in a long time the
- 00:53:26thing is like me and this person were at
- 00:53:29an event together and this person
- 00:53:30introduced themselves I introduced we
- 00:53:32tried to be nice this kid was not nice
- 00:53:34to me and then went and talked very
- 00:53:36poorly on me and Landon's like well let
- 00:53:39me call this kid and I'm like it's not
- 00:53:41that big of a deal like it's not that's
- 00:53:42what he's looking for is it taking
- 00:53:45everything in me not to respond or not
- 00:53:47to text him yeah but I know if I text
- 00:53:50him he's going to post it and that's
- 00:53:51going to be a thing and he's going to
- 00:53:53get exactly what he wants me to respond
- 00:53:56and give to whatever story he wants to
- 00:53:59portray to the people that watch him
- 00:54:01it's not it's not my problem like I know
- 00:54:05who I am and that's good enough for me
- 00:54:08like it doesn't matter yeah and it's so
- 00:54:11hard to get to that point but it's so
- 00:54:13liberating when you do like it's so
- 00:54:15freeing when you realize that where
- 00:54:17you're like actually not responding is
- 00:54:19not getting caught up in someone else's
- 00:54:21thing yeah and like then it just gives
- 00:54:24people an opportunity to well if I say
- 00:54:27this about her then she's going to
- 00:54:28respond and it's like I don't have time
- 00:54:31to respond to every little thing that
- 00:54:32people have to say about me and it it
- 00:54:35takes so
- 00:54:37much it's so draining to to have to see
- 00:54:41that and the more you talk about it the
- 00:54:43more your fans talk about it and people
- 00:54:46in the Press talk about it and it's like
- 00:54:48for what reason because I was angry at
- 00:54:51this kid who I met once like who cares
- 00:54:55yeah and and it's hard when the person
- 00:54:58you're in a relationship with wants to
- 00:54:59defend you too and like and he's so
- 00:55:01sweet he is so quick to defend me in
- 00:55:06every way possible and I just have to be
- 00:55:07like it's cool like it's good I feel
- 00:55:10like I tell him that all the time cuz he
- 00:55:12gets so upset whenever people have
- 00:55:15something negative to say about me or
- 00:55:17his family and I mean I
- 00:55:20think I definitely told him like many
- 00:55:23many times it's cool like it's it's
- 00:55:25totally fine they're going to say it no
- 00:55:28matter what and even if you respond and
- 00:55:29are like well this isn't true because
- 00:55:31this is this they're not they're they
- 00:55:33already read it and they think what they
- 00:55:34think about you they're not going to
- 00:55:36change their minds you know yeah you're
- 00:55:38arguing with people that don't care what
- 00:55:40you have to say mhm yeah it's already
- 00:55:42lost like yeah it's it's a lose lose
- 00:55:44situation so moving on is the best thing
- 00:55:47you can do yeah no and and it's
- 00:55:48wonderful to be with someone and have
- 00:55:50that with someone who you know cares
- 00:55:52about you that deeply and my wife's like
- 00:55:54that like my wife gets very defensive
- 00:55:56about me and like can get really
- 00:55:58activated and she gets really upset for
- 00:56:00me and whatever it may be and I I really
- 00:56:02always appreciate that because I can see
- 00:56:05that she knows who I am and that's kind
- 00:56:06of what it goes back to where I always
- 00:56:07say the same thing to her I'm like I'm
- 00:56:09just glad I have someone who knows who I
- 00:56:10am especially like when someone cares
- 00:56:13about you like that to see you upset
- 00:56:15because of something and not being able
- 00:56:17to fix the problem CU they just want to
- 00:56:20see you happy like I understand
- 00:56:24how upset that might make you you know
- 00:56:27and I I feel bad cuz sometimes I feel
- 00:56:29like I drag him into the drama just
- 00:56:31because of the relationship but I think
- 00:56:34knowing that you know we have each other
- 00:56:39and I can tell him like this was this
- 00:56:42actually really hurt my feelings today
- 00:56:43and and it was it was a lot and I just
- 00:56:46need some comfort and I need you to be
- 00:56:49by my side and that's good enough for me
- 00:56:52you know yeah definitely definitely
- 00:56:53Charlie what are you excited about right
- 00:56:55now like what's kind of like you know

- 00:57:52Nashville and she's like she was
- 00:57:56abandoned and she was like it was a
- 00:57:59horrible story and it really like pulled
- 00:58:00at my heartstrings and I was like okay I
- 00:58:02need to take you home now like I will
- 00:58:04take care of you I love you and like
- 00:58:07watching her grow up and being
- 00:58:09responsible for her I think has been
- 00:58:11very refreshing to me because my older
- 00:58:13dog she's you know she's very
- 00:58:16self-sufficient she's also very lazy so
- 00:58:19I'll be up in the morning and she'll
- 00:58:21wake up 2 hours later ready to be fed
- 00:58:23like she is not she has her own schedule
- 00:58:26and I love that about her because that's
- 00:58:28how I raise her she's a very like
- 00:58:30laidback dog can have all the lights on
- 00:58:33and she's sleeping like I love that but
- 00:58:35this puppy you know you have to train
- 00:58:36her you have to it's very specific and
- 00:58:38these formative puppy years are so
- 00:58:40important to who this dog becomes
- 00:58:42there's no bad dogs there's only bad dog
- 00:58:45owners so I just like am loving this
- 00:58:48journey of truly cuz you know I got my
- 00:58:50dog N9 years ago I was 10 I wasn't
- 00:58:54actually raising her and now getting the
- 00:58:56chance to raise a dog and it's really
- 00:58:59really exciting and special and seeing
- 00:59:01the two of them together is like my
- 00:59:03favorite thing ever I think something
- 00:59:04else that I'm excited for is I have a
- 00:59:08dance room in my garage so I love just
- 00:59:11going down there any time of the day
- 00:59:14whether it's 4: in the morning or 1:
- 00:59:16p.m. and just like letting go and being
- 00:59:19open with myself and using movement as
- 00:59:22therapy and also getting a little bit of
- 00:59:24a workout in you know like being
- 00:59:26productive I love that
- 00:59:28and
- 00:59:31probably experimenting more with my
- 00:59:33style that's something that I've just
- 00:59:36recently started to get into I think
- 00:59:39Landon and my sister had a lot to do
- 00:59:41with that because I I love the way that
- 00:59:43they put together outfits I think that
- 00:59:45they both have really good Styles and it
- 00:59:46comes very natural to them and to me
- 00:59:49it's a lot harder because I always go
- 00:59:51for what I know instead of stepping out
- 00:59:53of the box but I'm trying so that's
- 00:59:57something exciting and it's fun to
- 00:59:59experiment you know yeah I love how FAL
- 01:00:02all those were those were great they
- 01:00:03were great choices thank you yeah I love
- 01:00:05how none of them were career career
- 01:00:07related and like none of them were work
- 01:00:09related and that's awesome because I can
- 01:00:11tell that you've you've really started
- 01:00:13carving those two things as separate
- 01:00:15yeah um workwise you know using my voice
- 01:00:18more online I think that you know even
- 01:00:21doing a podcast is something very
- 01:00:24outside of my comfort zone a lot of my
- 01:00:26career has been not talking so it's been
- 01:00:30very hard for me to get into using my
- 01:00:32voice and figuring out what do I want to
- 01:00:34say especially when you don't know
- 01:00:36yourself how do you answer questions I
- 01:00:38don't you can't just say I don't know
- 01:00:40for everything so that's something
- 01:00:42that's been special and I've been trying
- 01:00:43to make more content for my fans and
- 01:00:48trying to use my voice more and like
- 01:00:50even little things finishing a get ready
- 01:00:52with me which I film 50 of them and I
- 01:00:56post one of them like trying to get more
- 01:00:57into it and go back to the reason why I
- 01:01:00started social media because I like it
- 01:01:02and I'm finally at a point where I like
- 01:01:04it again which is really refreshing and
- 01:01:06nice it doesn't feel like
- 01:01:08work I love that and what what's been
- 01:01:11what is that when you say you want to
- 01:01:13use your voice and even doing the
- 01:01:14podcast today like you coming on today
- 01:01:16and you know being open and and trusting
- 01:01:19me and trusting this space and just
- 01:01:21being vulnerable with the idea of like
- 01:01:23you said I don't know I'm trying to
- 01:01:24figure out who I am yeah and and being
- 01:01:27okay with that which I think by the way
- 01:01:28for a 19y old is is completely normal
- 01:01:31and wonderful and good and like I think
- 01:01:33that's amazing that you want to
- 01:01:35spend this time in your life figuring
- 01:01:37out who you are I think it's the best
- 01:01:39investment you could ever make I'm so
- 01:01:41happy that you're doing it and I'm
- 01:01:42hoping that you take your whole audience
- 01:01:45and community on a journey to do it for
- 01:01:47themselves because you're going to save
- 01:01:48so many people from so many stressful 20
- 01:01:52to 30 year old Journeys right like
- 01:01:54literally like you can either do it now
- 01:01:56or you can do it when you're 30 and if
- 01:01:58you do it now it's like you're going to
- 01:01:59help so many people what is is that kind
- 01:02:03of like when you say using your voice is
- 01:02:04that the type of Journey you want people
- 01:02:06to go on with you or are you are you
- 01:02:08still figuring out what that Journey it
- 01:02:10is that you want people to go on with
- 01:02:11you yeah as of right now it's literally
- 01:02:15just talking talking online just
- 01:02:18actually using my voice you know for so
- 01:02:22long it was a song and no words like it
- 01:02:26sounds so little but just talking I feel
- 01:02:30like that's something that is which is
- 01:02:32so weird but it's so out outside of my
- 01:02:34comfort zone and I feel
- 01:02:38so like weird doing it but has honestly
- 01:02:42been really refreshing for me because
- 01:02:46you know I'm growing up and a part of
- 01:02:50growing up is being confident with what
- 01:02:52you have to say and using your words and
- 01:02:55just
- 01:02:56talking with you know a little bit of
- 01:02:59purpose and I'm growing up but also so
- 01:03:02are all of the people that are watching
- 01:03:04me and I think bringing them on that
- 01:03:06journey of this is literally just what
- 01:03:09I'm doing I'm not talking about anything
- 01:03:13that's really of any importance
- 01:03:15sometimes sometimes I'm just talking but
- 01:03:18that's what I need to do to move to this
- 01:03:20next step of my life to hopefully talk
- 01:03:22about something important and talk about
- 01:03:24what matters to me I think that that's
- 01:03:26this is a very intrical step of growing
- 01:03:30up I think that's really smart I
- 01:03:31genuinely do I think that takes a lot of
- 01:03:33courage to even say that I don't think
- 01:03:35it's I don't think it's like
- 01:03:37insignificant at all I think it it makes
- 01:03:39a lot of sense to me that in order for
- 01:03:42you to stand for something you need to
- 01:03:44get to a point where you just feel
- 01:03:45comfortable being open and sharing yeah
- 01:03:48and so much of the beginning few years
- 01:03:51of this journey every time I
- 01:03:54talked someone had something to say and
- 01:03:58you know you get cancelled every 5
- 01:04:00Seconds like that was what was happening
- 01:04:03to me for so long anytime I opened my
- 01:04:05mouth so I just stopped talking I
- 01:04:07stopped saying anything that was
- 01:04:08important to me I stopped doing anything
- 01:04:11that was outside of the box that I was
- 01:04:14put in where I couldn't go wrong if I
- 01:04:16just didn't do anything you know and I
- 01:04:19have opinions I have thoughts I have
- 01:04:21things I like I have things I don't like
- 01:04:24why can't I just say it like like who is
- 01:04:26stopping me the people that actually
- 01:04:28care what I have to say they're going to
- 01:04:31support me even if they disagree you
- 01:04:33know whether it's I really like this
- 01:04:36outfit and they don't like that's cool
- 01:04:38they respect my opinion I respect theirs
- 01:04:40that's awesome the people that don't
- 01:04:42like me they're not going to like me no
- 01:04:44matter what they didn't like me when I
- 01:04:45wasn't saying anything they're not going
- 01:04:47to like me now that's fine I'm I'm not
- 01:04:50making my videos for them mhm yeah
- 01:04:53definitely when when you say you still
- 01:04:55want to get to know who you are and your
- 01:04:57identity what are the parts that you're
- 01:04:58like I'm still just trying to figure
- 01:05:00this out or this part I'm like really
- 01:05:01curious about I'm trying to learn about
- 01:05:03this about myself but I don't know what
- 01:05:04like what are those parts of yourself
- 01:05:06yeah I think a lot of it has to do with
- 01:05:09the way that I present myself whether
- 01:05:13it's how do I like my makeup done how do
- 01:05:17I like to dress how do I like to look
- 01:05:20how do I like to show myself to other
- 01:05:22people not just what is
- 01:05:27going on at the moment how do I like to
- 01:05:30smell you know I like born dreamer I
- 01:05:32know I like that and let's discover for
- 01:05:35future with born dreamer what else do I
- 01:05:36like you know whatever I know I like go
- 01:05:39a little bit deeper and you know
- 01:05:42something's so simple I've been doing
- 01:05:43more colors with my nails which is so
- 01:05:46random and so small it's your nails you
- 01:05:50know people get their nails done all the
- 01:05:51time but I did bright green and I
- 01:05:53thought about that for 3 weeks before
- 01:05:55before I did it and like why I enjoyed
- 01:05:59it I liked the color I wanted it on my
- 01:06:00nails it made me happy every time I saw
- 01:06:02them I was like I did that that was
- 01:06:04something different I normally do nude
- 01:06:07let's do something fun like that little
- 01:06:10thing was so much fun for me and it
- 01:06:12brought me so much happiness and I would
- 01:06:15match this color to this and it's just
- 01:06:17so fun why am I robbing myself of fun
- 01:06:20because I don't want to put myself out
- 01:06:22there yeah good for you I honestly like
- 01:06:25you're literally doing all the Practical
- 01:06:27steps that it takes to build your values
- 01:06:29like and that's what it is all of these
- 01:06:30little habits for anyone who's listening
- 01:06:32all these little habits and these little
- 01:06:33changes that you're making they turn
- 01:06:35into values that you appreciate about
- 01:06:37yourself so a value could be and I'm not
- 01:06:39putting a value on you I'm just throwing
- 01:06:41it out there is for a reflection but a
- 01:06:43value could be I like Freedom or I like
- 01:06:46self-expression or I like uh random can
- 01:06:49be a value or whatever it may be and
- 01:06:52like and then those values become things
- 01:06:54you can use in the future for how you
- 01:06:56make decisions now when you make so one
- 01:06:58of my values has always been to take
- 01:07:00risks I feel like I took risks ever
- 01:07:01since I was 14 18 21 and I've noticed
- 01:07:05that pattern in my life and so now when
- 01:07:07I'm taking a risk I'm not that scared
- 01:07:08anymore because I've always taken risks
- 01:07:10my whole life and I love
- 01:07:13how when I first took a risk I didn't
- 01:07:15even know what a risk was like when I
- 01:07:17was 14 years old or 18 I just did it and
- 01:07:20now when I look back I'm like oh no
- 01:07:21that's a skill I have now and so it's
- 01:07:24almost like when you're doing all these
- 01:07:25things you're just collecting lots of
- 01:07:27different like skills and then one day
- 01:07:29they'll evolve into values which will
- 01:07:31form an identity and then you'll be able
- 01:07:33to be like these are the three things
- 01:07:35that I value and that really matter to
- 01:07:37me and you know I love that you I love
- 01:07:40how simple you've made it for yourself
- 01:07:42and I love how you've broken it down
- 01:07:44because I think a lot of us try to like
- 01:07:47Leap Frog to like this is who I am now
- 01:07:49and we almost want the the performance
- 01:07:52part before the work part and it's like
- 01:07:54I feel like you're doing the work part
- 01:07:56yeah and it's it's great to watch it's
- 01:07:58really great to see thank you Charlie
- 01:07:59what have I not asked you about that
- 01:08:01you're like I really want to share this
- 01:08:02so this been on my heart on my mind or
- 01:08:04like something you want to talk about
- 01:08:05that you're like this is what I want to
- 01:08:07use my voice for and you haven't asked
- 01:08:08me about it or it just didn't come up
- 01:08:10something for me that I think is
- 01:08:13very interesting which is very random
- 01:08:16and has nothing to do with my career my
- 01:08:18personal life or anything I love the San
- 01:08:21Diego Safari Park which is so random but
- 01:08:24I've recently found I watch this like
- 01:08:25whole video on it this like very
- 01:08:28specific thing that you have to go
- 01:08:30through a lot of steps to be able to get
- 01:08:32it for like a zoo or aquarium or
- 01:08:34anything but it's a certificate that
- 01:08:36shows if it's Humane to the animals and
- 01:08:39learning about that has been really
- 01:08:41interesting because I love going there
- 01:08:43and I love how free the animals are and
- 01:08:45how it's just like they are in the wild
- 01:08:47and how they help the animals and that's
- 01:08:49definitely something that I want to get
- 01:08:51more into is like figuring out exactly
- 01:08:53what it is and going to more places like
- 01:08:55that and you know not appreciating
- 01:08:58places like SeaWorld that treat their
- 01:08:59animals horribly you know like little
- 01:09:01things like that that I think is so
- 01:09:02interesting cuz I love animals so that
- 01:09:05was something I I need to find the name
- 01:09:07of exactly what that little like thing
- 01:09:09is but it's really cool and like to get
- 01:09:11that you have to go through a lot of
- 01:09:12work and every place is constantly
- 01:09:14trying to outdo each other so the bar is
- 01:09:16constantly being raised which I think is
- 01:09:18so interesting it's the quality of how
- 01:09:20they treat the animals there and they
- 01:09:22have to pass a certain number of right
- 01:09:24right right wow so that's really cool
- 01:09:26and something random that I discovered
- 01:09:28no I love that yeah my my wife's a big
- 01:09:30fan of uh visiting animals as much as we
- 01:09:33can and so she's she's kind of always
- 01:09:35LED there and we've gone to some of the
- 01:09:37randomest places in in LA because of her
- 01:09:40but her relationship with animals is
- 01:09:42really beautiful and she can like you
- 01:09:44know start a relationship with I love
- 01:09:46you know yeah and it's really special to
- 01:09:47watch and it's really interesting
- 01:09:49because we went to a couple last year
- 01:09:50and she'd always come back really like
- 01:09:53even more calm and even more just still
- 01:09:55and and I and it was really beautiful to
- 01:09:58see just how when you're connected to
- 01:10:01Nature and we are nature and you know
- 01:10:03we're a part of that but now we feel so
- 01:10:05disconnected from it but animals are
- 01:10:07such a great way of reconnecting what
- 01:10:09what do you find I guess fulfilling or
- 01:10:13meaningful about being obviously your
- 01:10:15dogs but with these animals like what is
- 01:10:17it about it for you specifically that
- 01:10:18you appreciate about it I think it's
- 01:10:20just
- 01:10:21so peaceful and to learn so so much like
- 01:10:26when you go to these places I will come
- 01:10:28back only talking about animal facts for
- 01:10:30like a month and I love it and sometimes
- 01:10:34people are like that's like where did
- 01:10:36you even come up with that but I think
- 01:10:38it's so cool and so interesting to see
- 01:10:40all these animals
- 01:10:43in with each other and and how they
- 01:10:46respond to things and I love places
- 01:10:48where it's like if they're out and you
- 01:10:49see them that's great if not they don't
- 01:10:51feel like being out that's just how it
- 01:10:53is I just think it's so interesting and
- 01:10:56I literally I've been to the San Diego
- 01:10:59Safari twice and the first time talked
- 01:11:03about animal facts for like 2 months the
- 01:11:05second time I leading up to going that
- 01:11:09was all I could talk about and I brought
- 01:11:11I got so many other people excited about
- 01:11:13it because I like but you don't
- 01:11:14understand how cool it is like you are
- 01:11:1820 ft away from ma cheetah with like
- 01:11:20there's no big fence up you know like
- 01:11:23it's crazy just to see
- 01:11:26these animals just living not worried
- 01:11:29about anything that is so materialistic
- 01:11:33or anything like that like I don't know
- 01:11:34I just find so much joy in it yeah yeah
- 01:11:37definitely have you been to anywhere in
- 01:11:38Africa before I haven't and I really
- 01:11:40want to go I've like I've seen so many
- 01:11:43videos and so many of my friends have
- 01:11:44gone and it just seems so cool yeah I i'
- 01:11:48I've talked about this before on the
- 01:11:49podcast but I'm sharing it because it's
- 01:11:50natural in our conversation I went to
- 01:11:52Rwanda last year wow and Rwanda R's
- 01:11:55gorillas so literally every time there's
- 01:11:57a new gorilla in Rwanda the the
- 01:11:59community comes together and they name
- 01:12:00it and they have this whole ceremony for
- 01:12:02it and so they've had these uh gorilla
- 01:12:05sanctuaries for years and so same as
- 01:12:07what you're saying there's no fences or
- 01:12:10walls or whatever it's basically the
- 01:12:11mountains and you take tracks into the
- 01:12:14mountains and you discover gorilla in
- 01:12:15their natural habitat and there's
- 01:12:17families so we followed we I went three
- 01:12:20days and one of the days we discovered a
- 01:12:22family that had like 20 gorillas in it
- 01:12:24then we discovered another one and you
- 01:12:25get to see the babies and the adults and
- 01:12:27it was easily one of my favorite things
- 01:12:29I've done in my entire life and it was
- 01:12:33just the most magical experience because
- 01:12:35you're truly in nature the animals are
- 01:12:37in their habitat so you're going into
- 01:12:39their home yeah and they're going to Res
- 01:12:42they're so respectful and let you do
- 01:12:44your thing and at the same time you get
- 01:12:46to learn about them in this really
- 01:12:48intimate way it was beautiful to just
- 01:12:51see how they took care of the kids how
- 01:12:52the kids played around how they were
- 01:12:54defens if we got too close like just
- 01:12:57everything about them and the guides
- 01:12:59that we had said that you can also go
- 01:13:00and walk so this was walking with
- 01:13:02gorillas but they said you could go walk
- 01:13:03with elephants too that's cool and me
- 01:13:05and my wife have been talking about
- 01:13:06doing that we're like I'd love to go
- 01:13:07walk with elephants like how cool would
- 01:13:09that be and so there's all these
- 01:13:10incredible experiences out there and you
- 01:13:12know whether it's a local Safari or or
- 01:13:14whether it's being able to go there and
- 01:13:16have this experience I I definitely feel
- 01:13:20and my other team someone on my team's
- 01:13:21been talking about going to see The
- 01:13:22Great Migration which is what so the
- 01:13:25easy version of I'm giving a very bad
- 01:13:26explanation but just to make it
- 01:13:28relatable for everyone it's basically
- 01:13:30what happens in The Lion King when all
- 01:13:31the wilder beast are like running across
- 01:13:34like so that's the Great Migration where
- 01:13:36they're like stampeding across the
- 01:13:38Stampede where maasa unfortunately dies
- 01:13:40like that moment is what the Great
- 01:13:42Migration is and it happens every single
- 01:13:44year that's so cool so yeah anyway I'm
- 01:13:46I'm getting carried away too but no I
- 01:13:48mean it's so easy to yeah it really is
- 01:13:51yeah and it's magical to think that
- 01:13:52these things exist and you can go and
- 01:13:55them or even watch them online or a
- 01:13:57documentary whatever you know well at
- 01:13:58the San Diego Safari they're literally
- 01:14:01like with the southern white rhinos and
- 01:14:03the northern white rhinos it's like one
- 01:14:05one of them is going extinct and they're
- 01:14:06literally figuring out through stem
- 01:14:08cells like how to bring it it back it's
- 01:14:10so so wild and so interesting and
- 01:14:14hearing these people talk about it and
- 01:14:17and all of the steps they're going
- 01:14:18through with scientists and zoologists
- 01:14:21and literally everyone to help you know
- 01:14:24bring back the species of R rhinos it's
- 01:14:27like this is so cool and has nothing to
- 01:14:30do with anything that I do in my normal
- 01:14:32everyday life but how interesting is
- 01:14:35that to just hear and and see and like
- 01:14:40what that's crazy but I don't know I
- 01:14:42just think that that's so cool I love it
- 01:14:45I love it and I hope you just keep
- 01:14:46pursuing and following all of these
- 01:14:48things that you think are cool and you
- 01:14:50know you're it's not that you don't know
- 01:14:52yourself I wouldn't say that you don't
- 01:14:53know who you are I just say that you're
- 01:14:55you're firmly on that path yeah like

- 01:15:01your life and you're taking every one of
- 01:15:03the right steps like you know it's not

- 01:15:06you're confused you're just you're just
- 01:15:09taking those steps and and all of it's

- 01:15:26favorite things that I've decided yeah
- 01:15:28yeah and I and I hope and I hope they'll
- 01:15:30change again and you know I but I I'm
- 01:15:33glad that you came and shared this part
- 01:15:35because this is the hardest part to
- 01:15:36share when you're not sure and you're
- 01:15:39figuring it out and I'm glad that we had
- 01:15:41the opportunity to capture that today
- 01:15:43yeah and I'm really really appreciate
- 01:15:47you sharing that with people because it
- 01:15:48is the hardest part to share when you're
- 01:15:50like I don't know I'm not quite there
- 01:15:52but this is where I am now yeah perfect
- 01:15:55Charlie thank you so much no thank for
- 01:15:58coming on the show today and we end
- 01:16:00every episode with a final five and
- 01:16:02these I'm going to totally ruin these
- 01:16:04because I enjoy doing that but you meant
- 01:16:06to answer them in one word to one
- 01:16:08sentence maximum but I will probably ask
- 01:16:11you to expand because they always lead
- 01:16:13to more thoughtful answers so all right
- 01:16:15Charlie these are your final five the
- 01:16:17first question is what is the best
- 01:16:18advice you've ever heard or received or
- 01:16:21even given to someone this is probably
- 01:16:23the only thing that keeps me me saying
- 01:16:26whether it's good or bad everything
- 01:16:28happens for a reason you can't control
- 01:16:31it and that's something you hold on to
- 01:16:33it sounds like makes me feel like I'm
- 01:16:35not going crazy when have you used that
- 01:16:37the most you can expand Beyond one
- 01:16:39sentence I mean when I feel like I have
- 01:16:42no idea what to do next or I feel like
- 01:16:45everything's coming crashing down this
- 01:16:47is important because it's helping me get
- 01:16:49to the next step of my life and as much
- 01:16:51as this sucks right now I need it and
- 01:16:55some of the worst Parts where I I feel
- 01:16:57like I'm at an all-time low that helped
- 01:17:00me get to that next step so next time
- 01:17:03I'm I'm feeling like that I know how to
- 01:17:04I know first I can get myself out of it
- 01:17:07and second that you know maybe it's not
- 01:17:10that big of a deal and in a year not
- 01:17:13even going to remember it absolutely
- 01:17:15love that all right second question
- 01:17:17what's the worst advice you've ever had
- 01:17:19or
- 01:17:20received probably that I need
- 01:17:23to say yes to everything because you
- 01:17:26don't know when this is going to
- 01:17:27end sometimes you just need to say no
- 01:17:30and take that time for yourself I'm so
- 01:17:32glad you brought that up so many young
- 01:17:34creators here that just overwhelm
- 01:17:37themselves and it's you're doing a
- 01:17:40disservice to yourself give yourself
- 01:17:42time to figure out who you
- 01:17:44are and I think you're so right like
- 01:17:47I've I've said this to a lot of people
- 01:17:49too
- 01:17:51that it will only end when you want it
- 01:17:54to like nothing can end if you're if
- 01:17:56you're alive and you're creating and
- 01:17:59you're building like things just don't
- 01:18:00end and I think we use the end as a
- 01:18:03scarcity tactic or a fear tactic to get
- 01:18:06more out of someone or to get the most
- 01:18:08out of it right now not realizing that
- 01:18:11someone could take a break for three
- 01:18:12years if that's what they wanted to do
- 01:18:14and come back even stronger and bigger
- 01:18:16and better and whatever and I just don't
- 01:18:18think we allow people to have that space
- 01:18:21and I think it's really unhealthy for
- 01:18:23anyone to think that oh if I'm not don't
- 01:18:25do this I'm going to be irrelevant or
- 01:18:26whatever it's like actually if you're an
- 01:18:28artist you could take time out and come
- 01:18:30back in years from now and create a
- 01:18:32masterpiece yeah I mean the first like
- 01:18:36three years of my career all anyone was
- 01:18:38saying was it could be over like that no
- 01:18:40one's going to care about you and I
- 01:18:42spent so much time when is it going to
- 01:18:45end everyone keeps telling me it's going
- 01:18:46to end like do I want it to end maybe I
- 01:18:49want it to end maybe I want a break and
- 01:18:51it just to all be over and go back to my
- 01:18:52normal life I've Tak breaks I've taken
- 01:18:55step backs I've done everything that was
- 01:18:59coming to me at the moment and it's like
- 01:19:02letting whether the people that are
- 01:19:05watching you are going to stay or leave
- 01:19:07dictate every move you make those people
- 01:19:09that really care about you they're not
- 01:19:11just going to leave if you stop posting
- 01:19:13for a month or a week or however long
- 01:19:16like put your
- 01:19:18own mental state first yeah yeah because
- 01:19:22if you don't put your mental state first
- 01:19:24then then it's definitely going to go
- 01:19:25away yeah you're going to get burnt out
- 01:19:27and then no one's going to care cuz you
- 01:19:28don't care exactly or you're not going
- 01:19:30to be able to put anything out like you
- 01:19:32know and if you look at that perspective
- 01:19:34it's like yeah you just keep pushing and
- 01:19:35pushing and pushing you lose yourself
- 01:19:37and then you have nothing to share and
- 01:19:39then you've definitely you know lost out
- 01:19:41no really really great answer I love
- 01:19:43that uh question number three what is
- 01:19:45the craziest rumors you've heard about
- 01:19:48yourself one that made you laugh and one
- 01:19:50that made you cry ones that make me
- 01:19:53laugh are
- 01:19:57probably the ones where I'll like I'll
- 01:19:59seem
- 01:20:01super I'll see like blind items about
- 01:20:05myself and it's like she did this crazy
- 01:20:09thing at this party and it was wild and
- 01:20:12and I was like didn't even go to a party
- 01:20:14that's so like like where did you guys
- 01:20:17come up with this I wasn't even there um
- 01:20:19so those ones always make me laugh when
- 01:20:21they're like so not true I just have to
- 01:20:23be like okay
- 01:20:25crazy yeah I it's funny you said about
- 01:20:28not being at the party like so I I
- 01:20:31officiated Ben and Jen's wedding last
- 01:20:33year and there was a guest list that was
- 01:20:36printed and the guest list just had
- 01:20:38everyone's name on it and everyone was
- 01:20:41like asking me like oh did you see this
- 01:20:43person did you see this person I was
- 01:20:44like they weren't there like it was a
- 01:20:46really private wedding yeah but it's
- 01:20:48like everyone assumes that all these
- 01:20:50people were there now that all these
- 01:20:51magazines are printed it everyone
- 01:20:53assumes that it was just this big
- 01:20:54celebrity wedding it's like well it
- 01:20:56wasn't it it was just a really intimate
- 01:20:58friends and family wedding makes you
- 01:21:00laugh you guys pulled this out of
- 01:21:02nowhere nowhere like it was just crazy
- 01:21:04to me I was like how do you make this up
- 01:21:06like you know and so there was no
- 01:21:08official guest list printed externally
- 01:21:10anyway all right uh yeah and then one
- 01:21:12that kind of like got to you or if there
- 01:21:14was one that like made you more
- 01:21:15emotional or things that make you more
- 01:21:16emotional in general like things that
- 01:21:18make me more emotional are definitely
- 01:21:21ones that try to display my character in
- 01:21:25a way where you know I I don't want to
- 01:21:30defend everything that I do I don't want
- 01:21:32to defend every rumor that comes out
- 01:21:34about me but it's like to think that
- 01:21:37people think I'm capable of
- 01:21:39doing these things that you know are
- 01:21:42sometimes so horrible or you know there
- 01:21:47especially when I was like 16 16 was
- 01:21:51really hard for me and I would hear the
- 01:21:54grown adults every single day Charlie
- 01:21:57did this Charlie did that Charlie did
- 01:21:59this I literally it was actually right
- 01:22:02when I hit a 100 million I think I was
- 01:22:04at the lowest mental state possible and
- 01:22:07I looked so happy
- 01:22:10online and it got to the point where I
- 01:22:12was I was like I not doing this anymore
- 01:22:16like I physically cannot do this like it
- 01:22:20got really dark to where I was like I
- 01:22:21don't even want to be here anymore and I
- 01:22:25think back to those times and the grown
- 01:22:27adults that put 16-year-old me in that
- 01:22:31mindset and I'm just like like you guys
- 01:22:34have kids now like you guys are are
- 01:22:39grown and first of all never got an
- 01:22:41apology through a direct message never
- 01:22:44got an apology or anything besides if it
- 01:22:47was for other people or that they want
- 01:22:51something from me and I just like
- 01:22:55I wish that they could see what they did
- 01:22:57to me and how truly horrible they
- 01:23:00treated
- 01:23:01me and like what if that was your kid
- 01:23:04what if what if that was you how would
- 01:23:06you feel and like I'm so proud of myself
- 01:23:11for getting myself through that cuz that
- 01:23:14really like depending on how I responded
- 01:23:17to that could have changed the
- 01:23:18trajectory of my life whether I started
- 01:23:21to cope in unhealthy ways or or or
- 01:23:25harmed myself or did something that you
- 01:23:28know would make these people feel bad
- 01:23:32like I'm just very glad that I have the
- 01:23:35people around me and also got to give
- 01:23:37some credit to myself was able to get
- 01:23:39out of that M I can't I mean even just
- 01:23:42hearing you talk about it like it feels
- 01:23:44so hard and heavy and like I can feel
- 01:23:47how intense it could have been like what
- 01:23:49got you through that like what was it
- 01:23:51that because at 16 I mean you don't have
- 01:23:53a lot to pull on like what gets you
- 01:23:55through all of that especially being
- 01:23:57around you know now your family's more
- 01:23:59used to it so everyone has a bit more
- 01:24:01doesn't make it easier I'm not saying it
- 01:24:03makes it easier but people are more
- 01:24:05aware of it yeah for sure but at that
- 01:24:07time it's like right at the
- 01:24:09beginning you
- 01:24:11know it was really hard for a long time
- 01:24:15and especially at that point I showed
- 01:24:18myself in a very specific light
- 01:24:21and didn't want to let anyone know it
- 01:24:24was getting to me and then I would go
- 01:24:26and and cry on live and and I think back
- 01:24:29to that and I think it was the people
- 01:24:33that I had around me like it was getting
- 01:24:35to the point where like people were
- 01:24:36coming to my house to check on me like
- 01:24:38it was bad and like I don't know if
- 01:24:41these people that did this like I think
- 01:24:43they know who they are but are ever
- 01:24:45going to see this like first of all I
- 01:24:47think I deserve an apology second of all
- 01:24:50not that I need one because I'm content
- 01:24:52with how it happened whatever but the
- 01:24:55fact that there's no accountability for
- 01:24:57those people but there was so much
- 01:24:59accountability for a 16-year-old I think
- 01:25:02is so wild and there's so like honestly
- 01:25:06the hardest stuff to deal with was the
- 01:25:07people that were grown adults that were
- 01:25:10like just ripping on me every second of
- 01:25:13every day like 20 videos like what I now
- 01:25:18look back and I'm so disgusted by the
- 01:25:21fact that these people like thought that
- 01:25:22that was okay it's so wild and I'm just
- 01:25:26I'm very thankful that I had my friends
- 01:25:29and my family
- 01:25:31and enough in myself to want to get
- 01:25:36through it and come out the other side
- 01:25:38and show these people that they can't
- 01:25:41ruin me and I have more to show people
- 01:25:46than what I've done so
- 01:25:48far that's so powerful and it's so no it
- 01:25:51really is it's so powerful to hear that
- 01:25:53and it's it it breaks my heart hearing
- 01:25:55it too
- 01:25:57because I totally get what you're saying
- 01:25:59in terms of just like when you have kids
- 01:26:02we live in a world that wants to
- 01:26:03prioritize mental health but then when
- 01:26:05we take people apart whether they've
- 01:26:07made a mistake or not yeah we're not
- 01:26:09mindful of their mental health at all
- 01:26:12and it's almost like if someone's made a
- 01:26:14mistake or maybe not even made a mistake
- 01:26:16it's almost like well now we don't have
- 01:26:18to treat them as if they have mental
- 01:26:20health yeah at all or it's like people
- 01:26:23loved me because I was n perfect and I
- 01:26:25was authentic but then anytime I would
- 01:26:28mix up my words or make a mistake or do
- 01:26:31anything outside of what was okay for
- 01:26:34these people it was like yeah well I
- 01:26:37hate her and everyone should hate her
- 01:26:38and she's a horrible person because of
- 01:26:40this and I was like but what did I do
- 01:26:43like it was so hard to come to terms to
- 01:26:44the fact that so many people hated me
- 01:26:48mhm and I was just doing my best I was
- 01:26:51like but I I don't get get it like all I
- 01:26:55do is try to please everyone around me
- 01:26:57and they're not happy like how do I how
- 01:27:00do I do this I'm never going to win and
- 01:27:04you know that's really hard like I give
- 01:27:07myself so much credit for how I handled
- 01:27:09this stuff the best way I knew how
- 01:27:14like so wild if you ever doubt how tough
- 01:27:17you are you just got to remember 16year
- 01:27:19old Charlie cuz she was a beast that's
- 01:27:22so tough that is really really intense
- 01:27:25it is really really intense how have you
- 01:27:27dealt with that feeling of like trying
- 01:27:29to keep everyone else I know you've
- 01:27:31talked about it before the idea of like
- 01:27:32trying to keep everyone else afloat and
- 01:27:34you want to kind of let go of that
- 01:27:36pressure do you feel like you've let go
- 01:27:38of it or do you feel like you're letting
- 01:27:39go of it I think I am in certain aspects
- 01:27:42but also leaning into it a little you
- 01:27:44know like maybe not what the internet
- 01:27:47wants but what does my family want what
- 01:27:49do my friends want what does my
- 01:27:50boyfriend want you know like those
- 01:27:53people what do my true fans want what do
- 01:27:56they want me to put out that would make
- 01:27:58them happy cuz I'm doing it for these
- 01:28:01people and maybe if I'm feeling a little
- 01:28:04bit burnt out right now I really think
- 01:28:07back to well this is the reason that I
- 01:28:09started doing it you know but
- 01:28:14also understanding that I have to listen
- 01:28:16to myself and what I need yeah figuring
- 01:28:19out that balance which I don't think
- 01:28:21I'll ever truly get the hang of because
- 01:28:23it's always changing but at least
- 01:28:26acknowledging it mhm mhm all right

- 01:30:27to tell you about like you just never
- 01:30:30know the struggle that someone's dealing
- 01:30:32with when they're by themselves so just
- 01:30:34be a little more empathetic I feel like
- 01:30:36Co really you know caused people to
- 01:30:40react fast just take a step back you
- 01:30:44know cure people
- 01:30:45out just calm down calm down a little
- 01:30:49bit yeah it's so needed for oursel and
- 01:30:51others and it's amazing how many of us
- 01:30:54we all know we need that
- 01:30:56world but it's almost like the system
- 01:30:59and society and the way it works it's
- 01:31:01set up to make us not be that yeah right
- 01:31:04like we all want that we all say that
- 01:31:05and then something happens in the press
- 01:31:07and then everyone jumps on it and like
- 01:31:09it and I have to say that to myself too
- 01:31:11yeah keep yourself in check you know
- 01:31:14definitely Charlie I love how this
- 01:31:16conversation's been so fun and deep and
- 01:31:19like random and unique and I love that
- 01:31:22because that's what all of us are right
- 01:31:24think if you try and have a conversation
- 01:31:26that's just deep or just cool or just
- 01:31:28whatever it doesn't work but when you
- 01:31:29just get to know someone 360 it's it's a
