Catriona answers some questions about her
Cat shared her statement when asked about the need of having a large influence in social media to be able to rise from the crowds. She reveals that content matters and your authentic self should be at the top. Being able to communicate with valuable content is important.
Additionally, she shared that to keep being motivated she would do pep talk and have self-critic. She advises being with someone or something that will lift you like your family, friends, and loved ones. When asked about being afraid to voice out, she tells us that feeling nervous and afraid is normal. To be able to communicate well, first, you need to understand what you want to say. Give yourself time to research it. Respectfully justify your thoughts and don’t hesitate to open a discussion.
Important lessons she learned during the COVID-19 pandemic
If there’s one thing she learned during the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s to value her family. She shared that due to lockdowns and quarantines she experience the yearning to be with her parents and family. Cat revealed that she would happily trade her work just to be with her family. Because for her family is above all anything. Furthermore, she also opened up the feeling of being a public figure after winning the crown. Then, she stated that all her private life went public even her family, her past, and her background.
Cat opens up about the authentic beauty and opportunities
She unveiled that to stay authentic to yourself, you need to have self-love and block the negative voice that society always throws at you. Instead of hearing those unwanted voices, focus on yourself and ask what is beauty? What is your own definition of beautiful?
Aside from zoning around yourself, the queen herself advised everyone in the party to build yourself to create opportunities. By improving yourself, you need to prepare for and not wait for it. She, then, explained that it’s a waste of time. You have to find mentors to help you enhance your skills and by that, you will meet new people in your life. It is important to be proactive with your goals and all the opportunities will come along.
Furthermore, at the end of the Q&A segments, Cat summed up that every single one of us experiences failure. She, then, states that reaching help is not a bad idea because your feelings are valid. That, every failure comes with a lesson. Indeed, the most powerful advice she states in the party is to NOT compare your journey to anyone else as people have their own unique voyage of discovery.
Before the party ended, a fun-dance off with all the participants was held as for the closing. With a photo opt to everyone and a boost of Raise Your Flag song of Catriona Gray. A blast Saturday night for the Catriona Gray Academy Launch Party.
