The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1007.415

So, so many people are trying to skip that time. And I always say like, don't rush to get discovered. Trust me, that's not where it's at.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1023.448

Well, because all we see is like these people coming out of nowhere, right?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1027.571

But and some and listen, there are cases like that for sure. But for longevity, you want to do the opposite.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1057.299

Well, that's what also threw me off in the beginning because it was like, what is me? What is not me? What am I sharing? Because I don't want my neighbor to know these details about me.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1073.427

Correct. So there was definitely a lot of figuring out there. But listen, you heard all the remarks, all the like, oh, what you're doing is so cute. And I'm like, yeah. And you just got to soldier on because I did see the bigger vision. I understood what it could be. But for me, it was more like breaking my own limiting beliefs and my own barriers that I set for myself.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1101.014

So those remarks were just like another example of if I'm going to continue to care so much about what people think, I'll never do anything in my life. Right. It's social media, open a business, whatever it is that I want to do. So I'm like, this is a project and this is for me. Like I'm doing this for me. So it has been probably the best like therapy, exposure therapy.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1128.071

Like if I really wanted to be seen, but I also hid at any opportunity that was presented to me to like showcase myself. Yeah. Yeah. Always felt like not very gray mouse, you know, like always felt like not good enough. I don't know where it's coming from. Yeah.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

113.293

So we just kind of became that place for a lot of creators and aspiring creators. How long have you been doing the creator method? It's been a year. So we just celebrated a year of the community kind of coming together. And it's been really rewarding. And, you know, it started as like, oh, it's going to be this courses and whatever. But it actually became much larger than that.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1153.379

I don't think it's shyness anymore. I think it's sometimes these like feelings of imposter syndrome. But I have to say like now turning 35, it's really starting to shift. Like I really don't care.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1173.686

But I'm sure you wake up some days and you're like, what am I doing? Who cares about this? Yeah. No, for sure. What mark am I leaving on this earth, you know?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1201.177

But do you ever just glance at it and is it alarming for you when there's no negative comments?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1234.436

I think I don't have enough haters. Do you have haters? I think I do, but I feel like mine are too busy to leave comments and it bothers me.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1252.024

I don't know. Or maybe just with themselves, but I just want them to be part of the community. Like show their engagement.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1260.349

I just also think it's a good sign that you are evoking different type of emotion. You know what I mean? It's also maybe it's the stage that I'm in, but I've always like my whole life. I really want it to be liked. And now I realize that it's it's like making me very vanilla operating in that way.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1280.505

So I'm like, OK, I want to make sure that there's enough emotion.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

135.793

It's very much of a members club where they can network, collaborate, ask questions. We're there. We're constantly bringing kind of new people in, in terms of experts in the industry and things like that. So just became like a fun little thing.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1351.858

There's a lot going on. But all good things, honestly. At the end of the day, for me, as long as I get to wake up every morning and feel challenged and always kind of feel like there's a certain level of discomfort, that to me is a good sign. Yeah. Like, I don't want to feel too relaxed. You know what I mean?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1580.076

I wasn't Miss Israel, but I, yeah, I started working in the industry there. And then right after I started traveling, my first trip was Paris and then it was Tokyo for a month and a half at 16 by myself. It was amazing. Do you have siblings? Yes, I have a younger brother and an older brother.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1621.646

I truly feel like God really gave me exactly what I needed. I wouldn't know what to do with a girl. And I actually have... I'm in awe of my friends that have girls. Like I think that's a whole other set of skills that I'm not sure that I have.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1645.481

Yeah, I also like the daughter, you know, mother type of dynamic scares me. Like I have a healthy relationship with my mom. Yeah. But I've also seen enough of the unhealthy ones and that's scary.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1664.071

And then at some age, it's like the dad comes full force. Like my husband now is in his full like father, you know, disciplinary raising men era for him. Yeah. So I'm just here like living my life.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1718.072

Yes. With marrying young, I mean, it's different kind of I have a few different point of views here. So I married young, but I also married someone older. So he made you know, he had his life experience. He did whatever he needed to do when we met and decided to get married. Very rooted, strong foundation. And. You need that to me.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1741.942

Like, I can't imagine marrying young with someone who's at the same age.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1747.047

Because you are going through so many versions of yourself that I don't think that I'm especially for a woman. I don't know if a young man can withstand that because he's on his own going through his own kind of, you know, process.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1762.139

So there's a lot of things at play here. So. I'm happy that I'm married young, but that he was older.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1782.324

Yeah, and they also, you don't have certain conversations that are very vital, you know, for life.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

179.957

Well, I have to say when I started with social media, motherhood was a huge like at the forefront of my content. But as my kids got older, I kind of moved away from it just to give them space. So, yeah, you'll be surprised how many people have been following me that don't even know how big the boys are.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1794.667

Exactly, exactly. So he knew, and I always remind him, I'm like, hey, here's another like Valeria revolution coming. Like I can feel it. The Valeria revolution title. The Valeria revolution is coming. 35 is going to be a shit show for him. And he knows it. And I'm just like, just, You know, be grounded, patient. I'll be back. What do you think 35 is going to be like for you?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1818.814

So I have I've been doing this research out there. Every time I sit with women, I always ask them, what age do you remember yourself? Usually older women. Like, what is such a clear vision? And most of them say 35, 36. Like, I don't know what it is. But even for me, when I think about my mother, I remember her at 36.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1840.986

So something happens there. OK. And I'm about to find out. So I'll let you I'll keep you posted. And you'll podcast about it and you'll let us know if you post it. But but yeah, there's something is happening and I'm very excited for it. So, Gary, brace yourself.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1894.542

Okay, so I... My Saturn has returned. That. That's it. That is the theme song for it as well. Um, I can, I don't have the right, maybe explanation, but what I've experienced was that at 27, for me, it started 27, 28. I also had my third at 28. So that was a combination of both hormonally falling apart and healing. And then that it just felt like you look around. and you're like, who am I?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1922.459

What is this? Where do I belong? Like just really big questions that kind of catch you out of nowhere. And it's very much of a mind game because for me, I was in this position where I'm married. I just had my third child. Everything looks amazing, feels good, yet it doesn't. So there's this disconnect to yourself.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1944.566

So it's kind of like a journey of really reevaluating everything you thought about yourself and finding new definitions.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

1979.209

I'm telling you, you're asking big questions, but you also get, you get curious and you're open to explore what that means. That's when it all started for me. That's my origin story. There you go. So mine finished at like 32. I had a long one.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2001.927

I'm telling you, it's fascinating. And then you're going to have a couple of years where you can kind of like chill a little bit. Okay. And then we go again.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2036.246

But you know what I love about Americans? And I mean, I aspire to be an American. We're on green card. So like, I can't wait to become the American Valeria. But what I really love is the references that you're giving me, you know, like you're mentioning Saturn Return, like Ariana Grande is, you know, you're talking about these revolutions, the Kardashians.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2074.196

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2098.226

Here, I love America, like love America. And I feel like people need to- If the immigration office is watching, she loves America. I love America, please give me my citizenship. I think that we need to be more vocal about it. Like obviously no country is perfect, but... I understand the American dream.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2120.92

Yes. I don't think a freedom like this exists anywhere else in the world.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2155.143

Yeah. The order that they have there, I feel like that, we need to crack the code there, what they're doing there and bring it here because the order is insane.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2181.877

So haram means is like, it's like a crime. You know what I mean?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2187.519

Yeah. Like things that you, there's things that you do that haram that it's like, it's just very, it's against like the faith. You're doing something bad, you know, and people are scared of it.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2200.443

But also it's a religious country and they have like values, you know, like very strong values. Haram is like a big thing. Yeah. But then, yeah, also they kick you out and like you can never go in again. So probably the law is also... Yeah, it cuts both ways.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

226.015

Yeah, I think the biggest challenge for women is to understand that you can have it all just not. At the same time. So the timeline we're fighting against a traditional timeline are, you know, biological timeline. And then the opportunities that are out there now for us, because you want to you can you have access to do everything that you want to do. So it's very disorienting, I have to say.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2264.662

Right. That you just you don't care as much, but you know a lot.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2279.762

So maybe this is a good place for me because I don't care, but I also don't know.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2289.028

But I want to care a little bit because I tell you, I've been having certain conversations and people been, I don't know why this year, everybody's been dropping Gossip Girl references around me. I've never watched it. I don't know what they're talking about.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2337.982

Okay, I think I can do it. But do you think that will make me have relevant conversations today? No.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2351.226

I feel like is there a forum that people go on and they're just... You know what you need to do?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2368.232

Just like a download just so you know what's up.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2432.977

I wouldn't want a lot of influence from the outside.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2510.855

I won't be surprised if in my citizenship test, they'll be like asking questions like that. And I'll be like, well, actually, I'm fully versed in it because of the toast.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2541.722

Okay. But there weren't any pop culture questions on the citizenship list.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2560.137

Have you seen the AI biblical videos? Obsessed. Like that's this is a technology and just like a format I can get behind.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2573.424

Yeah. Or like when Moses separated the sea. Yeah. And people like he's like, hey, friends, today we are starting the day with, you know, letting my people go.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2596.334

I think it's a state of mind. If you look at all these advancements as something that's threatening your, you know, existence, then I think maybe you're not seeing the potential. I just feel like we need to over index now on things that only humans can do.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2633.718

Listen, I just want a robot in my house to do all the tasks that it's just a waste of time for me.

2686.937

Oh, cool. I know. It's very basic Miami. Is it? Is that the classic Miami car? I would say so. I see so many of them, which is also nice because it's nothing like unique. Yeah. Yeah. It's a cool car though. Yeah. And I have the older model, which I like.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2709.106

No, it will never be a little car because I am a savage on the road. So I need a big car to make sure everyone sees me and that I'm coming. Where did you learn how to drive? In Israel. That should explain everything to you.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2729.925

Like I have really good reflexes. I'm just like, whoop, you know? Yeah. So I feel like I can really navigate the roads well, but I don't think a small car for me would do this world a favor. I understand.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2752.403

Being in anything that Elon Musk created. I don't know what's going on there. I don't know what it is. The EMFs, they say.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2765.538

Apparently there's like a little switch that you put and then it changes the way something operates. I don't know what it is. And then you don't get headaches. So maybe you did a little switch.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2784.108

I think for me at this point, it's a placebo effect. Like I've decided that Tesla's make me nauseous. So that will be it forever for me.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2816.853

Did you feel like you just like, A new hole found freedom? Superwoman.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

282.992

I know I try to be very inclusive when it comes to all the content. How do I run through it? I mean, honestly, I have a team behind me and I think that people don't realize how much support like I really over index on support. And that's something that I had to learn the hard way. Speaking of burnout.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2867.179

I am the opposite sort of driver. And to me a lot like I couldn't wait to get my license because I'm just I operate from a feeling of like, people are suppressing me and I just need all the tools.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2882.484

It's freedom. Yes. So I am very like I'm in awe of you because I can't imagine learning it as like an adult.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2924.111

I think you have a romanticized idea of it. I don't think that's how it works.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

2928.294

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

300.075

I feel like I did a classic mistake of most women where like we just take it more and more upon ourselves and we can do it better than anyone else and let me just figure this out. And I crashed really badly and it was like a big wake up call when my husband Gary was also my business partner came to me and he's like, there's no novelty in you running yourself to the ground.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

Improv, yes. You should do it. I'm just really scared. I have to still build a...

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3032.241

That's what I said. We had a friend over and he's a standup comedian and I just looked at him and I'm like, I don't know how you go out there in a place of people that you don't know and you just start telling your jokes and it's quiet. And then maybe one cackle, somebody's like drinking, you can hear them drinking the water. Like there's so many elements that I would just paralyze me.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3070.729

But did she ever have a flaw? Like she's standing there telling the joke and the audience gives you nothing.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3100.96

But one day, just going out stage in just a random bar and just start spitting jokes. No, it's so crazy. Oh my God! Literally having an out of body experience. So yeah, one day I'll do it and I won't tell anybody and I just go to like a random place and just start improving.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3143.605

But that's why I'm so passionate about creators and the creator economy in general, because you can do anything. You know what I mean? I want to be a comedian. I'll be a comedian. I want to do something else. I'll do something else. I want to start selling candles. I'll do that. Like you, there's, No limits because you build your personal brand and people love you for you.

I agree. I enjoyed it. I feel like there was enough intellectual tickle there for me to keep watching.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3525.097

If you watch the first, like just the pods and then the end, to me, that's me watching reality. Like the in-between is where they drag it and try to make a storyline, but there's no story usually.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3543.568

But I sit there and analyze like human behavior. Like her saying I have a cat to see her body language and like what was her messaging behind the statement and then seeing the guy responds. This is the tickle that I was looking for.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

358.057

Like Mondays are admin days, you know, Tuesday content, Wednesday, whatever. Also keep a day for me to just like sit and stare at a wall. Right. I think that's so important.

Thank you for having me. And you pronounce my name so well.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3710.488

I feel like you should have sent me this like as homework before I came here.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3727.919

What kind of books do you like? I like very dense books. It's either like self-improvement or biographies I love. I do fiction too. I actually picked up my first fantasy book because of like peer pressure. Which one? Fourth Wing?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3749.899

Yes. Okay. So the first, I didn't love it either, but I got to tell you, I talked a lot of shit about it on my social media. I finished the first book, committed to it. And I was like, Mia. And then I started the second book. And it does get better.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3807.654

Yeah. Well, they're having the most amount of fun. That's why I felt the FOMO. And I'm like, I'll pick up this book because I want to have fun too. And you're a reader.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3816.04

But the second book, I'm going through it. It's spicier.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3823.045

No, there was no spice. I was like, is this it? Because this is a fairy popping up in every scene. And I'm just like, enough with the freaking fairies. Like, let's get somewhere. But the second book is... It gets there. So we'll see. But fantasy is one that I felt like I need to explore. I'm still not there yet.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

383.856

Yeah, I really want to do less. That's like my new goal in life. I want to do less. I want to really learn the art of... Just like being. Yeah. Even yesterday I had a conversation with my husband because I came to him with this like new crazy idea. And he's like, it's not, you're not being practical. I'm like, that's not my fucking job. You're supposed to be practical. Right. I need to be free.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3890.123

There was one that I read. It was about the fictional wife of Jesus. What was the name of that book? That was a great book.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3906.11

That's why I picked up the fantasy book. Understood. But now I'm in a deeper slump.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3920.096

You see, I can't get with that either. Although it's not like, it's not my favorite type of literature, but I do have to say it's easier to like get through.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3936.042

Love it. That one is amazing. But yeah, I love books like this, but there's not a lot of them out there that can really marry like both facts and history.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

3983.511

That's another thing. The murder mystery thing. Yeah. A whole industry, a whole world that I found out about probably six months ago. Do you like them? I never listened to it. I'm scared. I don't know where to begin. Like it's such a completely different space for me. And I also can't really imagine listening in the car about like a murder mystery. You listen in the car to books?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4012.107

Yeah. I've been trying to like have a tighter bubble around me because there's so many things going on in the world. I'm just like, I need to.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4024.431

Okay. So Love Island. So Love Island premiered. Maybe they'll come out with a great, beautiful film.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4050.313

Okay, you see where I take conversations when you sit down with me to talk about pop culture?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

407.997

You're the free spirit and the creative. Yeah, don't stop me.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4125.83

So that's the first thing that came to mind. He's leveraged. And I think that's such a beautiful lesson for young people to also learn how to build a business. Like he's still in building mode, even though it's like a huge empire. And I love it. I think it's so, it's like a humble thing to say, you know, and be open about.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4153.092

I think that... Well, I also think it's like a fun little thing. Exactly. To keep him kind of in the news and the circulation. But yes, I think that it's so smart of him to continue building and reinvesting into his business. I don't know how much his mother, I hope she'll be okay.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

416.363

Yes, very data driven. And it really balances off. And I'm trying in the beginning of my entrepreneurial journey because he has more kind of business background. So he knew how to... you know, really put this together. But for me, I'm a baby entrepreneur. This is my first business.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4211.694

I'm a fan because I think he's doing a lot of really smart moves.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4220.079

I don't watch any of it. My kids were watching it for a little bit.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4223.081

He's big with that demo. Yes, exactly. And I think it's great and fun. Very interesting type of content. I see the amount of work he puts in there. But I wonder if one day he's just going to like... turn it off and just disappear.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4262.631

No, I still, I don't know what I need to do in order to get my kids to understand how cool I am.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4284.761

It looks like a good show. I think that they are such masters at what they do, that everything that they put out there, they already know. They engineer it.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4302.511

It was such a smart move because they just had the baby and they're kind of like outgrowing, you know, the cohort that they build until now. But to your point, they're bringing new people in like you. Like I need to watch this show. I would watch that.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4330.612

Yeah, to me, there's personas. So I don't mix. Yeah, but she seems great. She really is great. So I am all for the Paul reality, but my kids don't watch it. Got it. Okay, cool. I'm trying to insert like geography quizzes type of thing while I can. You know what I mean? I'm like, look at this. This is so cool.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

435.812

So when I was learning how to build this and navigate my own entrepreneurial personality, I was trying to do similar things to him. Like I was watching him being like, I need to learn how to do these things. And I've realized that that's not the power of women in leadership. Like there's obviously certain things that you need to have, you know, practicality, whatever.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4386.892

My kids love Shark Tank, actually. They watch it with my husband. They love it. That is classic American. They like to break it down. That show, I'm so happy that it runs. Like, that is one of the best shows that America produced.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4408.832

It also shows you how you don't need to come up with some revolutionary idea. Like, I can't even tell you. I saw one episode of this doctor that came up with a hiccup straw. I talked about it for a week. Did it help? Hiccups? Apparently, he had a testimony of this girl that came up and said, hey, I hiccup all the time. And when I use the straw, I stop hiccuping. And it's like $7 on Amazon.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4432.001

I'm getting it. He's like a legit doctor. The only thing is that was very, you know, the question was, do you always walk around with a straw in your purse?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4446.377

Yeah. So I, you see, I didn't think that a hiccup straw would be a hit. Like I wouldn't even think to invent something like that.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4507.912

I feel like it won't compliment 90% of people. Like in my head, I don't see that happening.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4515.514

But did you see the, you mentioned the nipple top, but there's one with the piercing. I saw it. Is that the one you're referring to?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4533.743

Talk about niche. The fact that you see, you know, her team saw a gap in the market for it is what blows my mind.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

456.881

But part of our strength is really like the emotional intelligence and that place of like really bringing in the creative, you know, and coming up with this idea. So I am learning how to make more space for that. That's like my superpower as an entrepreneur. Yeah.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4573.095

I just think that, think about it, you go out with that pierced nipple thing and you hook up with somebody. Like how does that conversation go? Right, right. Where he's like where's the piercing?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4589.696

I just think that's very deceiving. False advertising.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4594.538

I think there's going to be a wave of lawsuits coming from the people that got deceived by these products.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4619.366

That's so true. I love the padded butt shorts. You do? Yeah. That I like because I feel like it's aesthetically, not the big ones, the like very, just to smooth things out. I'm into that. So you know what? I'm kind of, I understand how people buying into these things.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4644.453

But it's definitely going to be a phase like we're just I think that we as a society just looking for the next viral thing. And then there's some videos. People use it a little bit and then we move on.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4717.878

It really is. Because on one hand, I also understand that there's a lot of catfishing out there. And, you know, for some people, it really matters. The height matters. Yeah. If it's right or wrong, it doesn't matter. That's their preference. But on the other hand, I can't...

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4733.829

even begin to think how many lost connections, potential amazing connections that get lost within all these like not really important details.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4772.503

That's insane. Could you imagine? I also, as a mother of boys, I do often worry about how it affects guys in society because that's not something they can change. For a girl, it doesn't matter your height really. But for a man, it's such a big pain point. And I love that we had that like short king kind of, you know, thing trending. Let's keep that going.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4795.497

But that to me is so much more that it's just harmful.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4817.339

I mean, you don't get into a relationship, especially a marriage, and hope to stay married for 30 years. The height is really not going to be a factor.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4831.656

God, I'm so happy I'm married. I can't even imagine dating in today's time and age.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4848.407

No, it was just coincidence, just friends of friends. It wasn't like right away click. It was something that, you know, gradually happened, but it was very natural and there's no, you know, There was no preferences to take on or off.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4876.447

That would have been my age range at all. So that's what I'm saying. There's so many moments that you miss in life because of all these details. Yeah. How did you meet your husband?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4906.303

If you could build a dating app today, what would you, how would it look like?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

4945.237

I agree. I love that. You're part of a circle that already shows that you guys have some kind of connections, some kind of similarities. You're around, you know, the same people.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

499.198

Here we are. So that's the era you're in. That's the era I'm in, the do less era, but reap the most amount of benefit.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

50.201

You'll be surprised how many times and how many versions of it I've heard before. So thank you. What do people say? Valerie. Valerie. Lipotetsky. Like, there's missing words, letters. Like, there's a lot of things.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

5000.092

No, from just her merch, I would say from 20 years ago.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

5006.197

You know what? I don't. I think everyone should collaborate with her. I want her to make money. Like, please, just whatever. Whoever's listening to this, you have a product or an idea. I'm sure she'll jump all over it. Like, go for it. I feel like we need Brittany just need justice.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

5036.26

I don't know. I don't know why she does it, but I just want her to be so rich that she can just buy an island, turn it all off, and just live her best life. We owe it to her.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

5054.425

Okay, cool. Gary used to have a Balenciaga face with all the hoodies. We sold everything.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

508.443

And I feel like I reached that point because the first, like I've been doing this for eight years. Okay. And you have to grind. You have to really put in the extra, extra work. You have to go through the burnout. Like all these steps are part of the process. And I feel like now I reach this point where I'm like, OK, now I can step back a little bit. I have system in place.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

5082.365

But that's, there's always sometimes a disconnect like between fashion world and real world. And a lot of these companies are suffering without us knowing. They just have this like big brand. It looks flashy and successful. I think that's where Balenciaga is at. How are they still in business?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

5110.556

But they're going to bring a creative director that will change it. Like you just need time with these things. Time does its thing. I actually have to say I was pretty shocked how fast the story, like when they did that hideous campaign, how fast people forgot that.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

5130.752

We have not moved on. That's what I'm saying. The media did not fool the people.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

5135.635

But it was crazy to see how fast the cycle went on the media.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

5152.666

I think that today, if you choose to wear Balenciaga, it like showcases your values as a person.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

5202.745

Thank you for enlightening me. And I'm so excited to get my news from The Toast every week so I can be with it. People can find me at Valeria Lipovetsky on every platform. I'm everywhere.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

5223.153

Thank you so much. And then my podcast, Not Alone. When does it drop? Every week. What days? Tuesdays. Tuesdays. And you just had Stassi on your podcast. We're big Stassi fans here. Listen, Stassi is the one that made me realize that I have to learn more about reality TV because she, I fell in love with her. I'm obsessed with her. She is so fun. So upbeat.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

5260.931

So I'm going to talk with my chat GPT to filter my reality show consumption and only find me the Stassis.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

528.798

You know, there's I know what I'm doing, so I can take a breath now. Yeah. So how did you get your start? So for me, it started with actually a blog. Well, actually, I'll take you a little bit back. I came from modeling, so I started doing modeling at 15, 16 and had the opportunity to travel the world, you know, make money. It was a wonderful experience.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

5312.003

I have to watch it. Okay, cool. Gossip Girl, Desperate Housewives, Vanderpump Rule.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

554.052

Met my husband, got married at 21, and I've realized that I want to start a family. I don't want to do modeling anymore. So I asked myself, OK, what am I going to do next? The next thing that was really interesting to me was nutrition. So I went to learn nutrition. And when I finished school, I was like, I'm going to open up an office. Open up an office, hated seeing people.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

574.266

And I realized early on that I'm not a one-on-one person at all. So I have this knowledge. I want to help people. What do I do? I went on social media. I started a blog. It was called The Modern Fox. And it was 2017, I would say. I did that for a little bit, realized that it's not challenging at all, like didn't really stretch my creativity.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

598.386

So I found YouTube and I was like, okay, this looks really scary, but also fun. Yeah. So I started there and it was just, in the beginning was nutrition, then it got into vlogging, then beauty fashion, you know, naturally kind of seeped into other areas of my life.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

622.764

YouTube was my first platform that I really focused on. So it really brought me that really engaged audience that was very invested in my content. And I think that was like the best foundation for me. Then I moved to Instagram and kind of learned how to navigate that. But it took me years of experimentation. Like it wasn't this viral, you know, right off the bat.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

645.422

And the biggest shift happened, I would say during COVID because we were locked in the house. And I was just, I woke up one morning when they locked everyone in and I was just like, I have a purpose. I need to use social media to make people feel good. And I just went ham. Like, I don't remember that time because I was filming in my room 24-7. That's such a good use of time. It was insane.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

671.079

But I truly felt like this is my calling right now. Like, this is how I'm supposed to show up. So I started doing Instagram lives every day. I was doing workouts. I was just living online. It was insane. I look back and I'm like, who was that animal? Yeah.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

688.008

Yeah, you were. Yeah, I was obsessed. So when did you start your podcast? So the podcast started about a year, a year and a half ago. And I had a rough start with the podcast.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

702.342

Well, first of all, if I'm being honest, I walked into this being like, I've been doing social media. I know how to be on camera. Like, no problem. And when I sat down, I got humbled so fast because it's a completely different platform, different kind of delivery. And I've realized that I don't know my voice in a long form. Yeah. Like I can do a quick 15 seconds. No problem.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

733.125

The format of my show was very complex because the Virgo in me was like, let's just give so many layers to make it feel so valuable. So it was a guest. And then in between the guests was a monologue. No, I made it so complicated. Yeah. It was this whole like you're in my head type of thing, you know? Got it.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

778.331

Yeah, so I am known for doing the most until I realized that if it's not broken, don't fix it. Obviously, there were enough podcasts out there to show me that you just need to come and just have a conversation. To me, it was like, that's not enough. I need more. So I did all that and I kind of sat with myself listening to these episodes and I'm like, This is a train wreck.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

802.335

So season two, we pulled back and really went back to basics. But it is a journey. And I have such a newfound respect for podcasters. Like you guys have been doing such an amazing job for all these years to really be able to come in.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

860.425

But do you feel that was from the beginning or did you build that toward...

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

906.812

Yes. Also, I have to mention, you made such a good point, when you become a mother, like my kids especially, right, they're 12, 10, they watch what I do. Their friends watch what I do. Oh, really? So not only am I in my own head, I also have all these children in my head.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

92.874

Yeah, it's like a community that we put together, basically giving all the tools and all the information that I've learned throughout the years. Because I don't know about you, but when I started on social media, It's like, it still is, it feels so lonely and there's no one to talk to and there's no really peers that you can, hey, how much do you charge for this? Hey, how much did you made here?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

922.402

So whatever I say, I got to think, like, is it going to embarrass my kids?

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

951.584

So that's where I'm at. Just like all in my own little head.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

956.066

So much going on. But yeah, but I wake up every morning being like, okay, go out there and just say what's in your mind. And that's working for you. Sometimes it's work. Yeah, sometimes.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

973.547

I mean, I think that everyone needs to get very comfortable with having a long experimentation phase, because I think so many people, when they start whatever project you pick up, you kind of assume that you're going to just get it. Yeah.

The Toast

The Valeria Revolution with Valeria Lipovetsky: Wednesday, June 4th, 2025

987.378

And you're missing the most vital aspect of the journey, which is making a fool of yourself, putting out a version of yourself that you're like looking back, being like, that's not really me. And then tweaking it. and trying different formats and figuring out. It's a lot of play to see what sticks, even for yourself. It took me many years to find my voice.
