Unveiling the Evolution of the Bikini Industry and Personal Growth with Stella Roberts

I'm excited to have Stella Roberts on the show to discuss the evolution of the bikini industry since 2009. During our conversation, we explore the importance of glutes in the industry, and how women are looking better and better as more people want to compete as they age. Stella also shares her personal journey, including how she managed to show up as the glam queen of the day and what kept her motivated throughout her career.

We're getting real about the challenges that come with the industry, including self-doubt, and Stella shares what helped her overcome her fears and insecurities. Her insights provide valuable lessons on what it takes to succeed in a highly competitive field.

Finally, we get a glimpse of what Stella is currently working on, her plans and goals for the future, and how she continues to push herself to new heights. Whether you're a seasoned bikini competitor or just curious about the industry, there's so much to takeaway from this conversation with Stella.

"If you understand your flaws, and every single year you focus on the things you can change. That will make you a more impactful, powerful competitor"
