Hey you, welcome to the Model Mind Podcast! 

If you’re a model, whether you're just getting started or you’ve been in this industry for years, this space is made for you. 

We're going to talk about all the things that don’t always show up on camera here: the mindset, the emotions, the highs and the lows that come with this career. Because let’s be real —modelling is so much more than just striking a pose.  

But first thing first, let me introduce myself, I’m Shawna Blackburn — I’ve been modelling for over a decade now, and along the way, I also earned a Bachelor’s in Luxury Marketing and a Master in Business and Entrepreneurship.

For me, modelling has been an incredible journey — and it’s also been a challenging one. I can tell you that to thrive in this industry, you will need confidence, strong boundaries, and a solid sense of who you are. 

And that’s what I’m here to talk about.

Consider this podcast a place to talk openly about what we go through, as models, both professionally and personally.

And my goal is to help you feel more aware, more connected to yourself, and less alone through this modelling journey. 

So stay tuned if you want to hear about real topics, that you can definitely relate on as a model, like how to keep up with stress, self-esteem, relationships, boundaries or rejection. 

And you can count on me to share some tools, personal stories, and practical tips - that could support you through your own path in the fashion world.
