Kayla Nicole began training in gymnastics at only 5 years old. What started as fun and playful sessions quickly developed into a disciplined regimen of focus. She learned all about the type of commitment it takes to become a competitive athlete by focusing on diet, exercise, and training. She used that early dedication to carry herself through Pepperdine University’s prestigious broadcast journalism degree program and into a massive media career that spans genres. Her early media icons were leading ladies in everyone’s favorite romcoms, including the Toni Braxton, with whom she had a chance to perform. These moments aren’t serendipitous; they are the culmination of Kayla’s incredible use of social media to show people her personality and well of talent. Kayla always knew that she belonged in front of the camera, helping people tell their stories. She got practice in both, working in retail and modeling in L.A. During this episode of Naked Beauty she talked all about her incredible discipline and how it informs everything from her daily workouts to her pursuit of media success. They also chat about what it was like growing up in a family of women, headed by a glamorous matriarch who believes in self-care. They discuss the alluring red carpet events and how support from a therapist helped her surmount a season of depression. The conversation is candid and funny, and it mirrors the Kayla Nicole her audience has grown to love.
