Amber De Muyt is a Belgian fashion model, founder of Monique Models, and Europe scout for Respect Models Belgium. In this episode she talks about landing in China on a modeling contract, getting told to lose weight on day one, spending two months working hard, then getting sent home anyway.

We go into the two years she spent not eating carbs out of fear, the first agent she signed with who told her she could not run because her legs would get too big, and how she used a lawyer to walk away from that contract. She built Monique Models to be the kind of agency she never had.

The conversation ends on solo travel as the fastest way to find yourself, why the things that scare you most are usually worth doing, and the one piece of advice from her dad she still lives by.
