Summary

Faye Winter appeared on Love Island in 2021 and when she left the villa she was faced with a lot of noise and a lot of criticism. In this episode, Faye chats candidly about seeing herself in a different light, admitting she was wrong, and how she apologised and is working towards becoming a better person.

Faye tells us about her desire to live a normal life after appearing on the show - but how some people can perceive that as a failure, and how the choices that influencers make are dictated and driven by their audience engagement.

We also have a candid chat about Faye’s experience with filler - and how it is unregulated in the UK. Faye shares a horror story about botox and explains why she’s so vocal about the topic now.

Thanks so much to Hinge for sponsoring this episode. The dating app, which is designed to be deleted, inspires daters to take it slow this holiday season and reflect on the learnings from the past year. As we near the end of 2024, it’s the perfect time for a profile refresh demonstrating the person you’ve grown into this year and creating New Year’s intentions #HingePartner AD

0:00.0	This episode is sponsored by Hinge, the dating app designed to be deleted.
0:04.0	Lots of our friends are currently in the thick of dating journeys and we are very much being kept up to speed.
0:09.3	Absolutely. I love hearing from one friend in particular who is a big Hinge fan and has used the app to meet lots of new people.
0:15.2	Some matches have had romantic potential and some haven't, but all of the interactions are taught us something about herself and helped her identify what she's actually looking for in a romantic partner. My sister, an iconic friend of the podcast,
0:25.3	Kat actually met her partner Kieran on Hinge a couple of years ago. Of course, they're such a cute
0:30.6	couple. They really are. And I really want to encourage any of you guys who are still on your
0:35.7	dating journeys at the moment, particularly
0:37.8	as the year comes to an end. It is a great time to reflect on learnings from the past year
0:43.2	and update your profiles ready to start 2025. All of the moments from this past year, both good
0:48.1	and bad, ultimately have shaped who we are now. And it's a great opportunity to take stock of that.
0:52.9	Reset intentions and refresh our
0:54.4	hinge profile to better represent who you've grown into so that one day you can find the one.
0:59.1	One prompt you might consider is, this year I really want to. It's a great way to share a
1:03.9	piece of yourself with potential connections who are also reflecting on their own journey.
1:07.7	If you had a hinge profile, what would you change about it for 2025?
1:11.6	Oh God. Okay. So if it was like old me when I was dating, I would definitely make sure that I really
1:15.6	showed up without any filters or edits to my pictures going into next year. I think it's so important
1:20.5	to be you and not get hung up on the societal pressures of what or who you should look like.
1:25.1	Oh, I'd also 100% include me eating pistachio ice cream.
1:28.4	It's become very much a personality trait I love about myself.
1:31.1	That's so true about removing filters and also the ice cream
1:34.0	and definitely something I'd love to encourage anyone who is on the dating scene
