Like, finding your style is literally, quite literally playing dress-up.
13:11
Right.
13:11
And we don't allot ourselves, like, everyone gets, you know, you get older and you're, like, rushing to this and you're rushing to that, but you don't allow your, you don't allot yourself the time to play dress-up.
13:20
And I think when you talk to fashion people and they do, that, like, that's, that's a part of the fun, is just doing the dress-up.
13:27
Or before I go to Fashion Week, I always do a style out.
13:30
And a style out, you know, I'm sure you know what a style out is, but for everyone who's listening, a style out is when you get your looks, you try on, you know, I set aside usually a Sunday morning when I'm packing.
13:40
You get your looks together, you, like, find the key pieces that you wanna wear, and you just play and you figure it out, and then you take the picture of the thing.

Are you having fun?
22:18
I'm having a great time.
22:19
It's like the perfect confluence of everything that I love, which is how I've ended up on Bravo this evening.
22:24
That's great.
5:56
And you're doing a workout in the morning too? Because you started before we rolled the tape here to tell us about the intensity of those workouts and how it has literally changed your outlook on life.
6:13
100%.
6:14
I think sport just in general, and this is why I wanted to have like a women in sports issue at Marie Claire, I think the way that women, I think the way that sport has sort of can dictate the way that you live your life is really paramount.
6:28
And it's something that I hope that many people can experience.
6:31
So about 10 years ago, I became a pretty avid runner.
6:34
I've run almost 10 half marathons.
6:37

So like, when does that show up in the day that you make the time to kind of settle in to that?
19:21
I try to keep it out until...
19:26
Probably like 8.30, 9.
19:28
I have a really, really amazing team of women that I work with who don't need me to sort of like be the micromanager who's like dropping in links and saying like we should cover this or we should cover that.
19:42
Like they really are so fantastic that they set me up and they give me the news so I can sort of like avoid it a little bit in the morning.
19:50
Yeah.
19:52
While I'm sort of like trying to, you know, get ready to sort of face the day, which is great.
21:23
great question.
