Flavia

Season 2, Ep. 8

Recorded in 2020, I interviewed Flavia during Covid times. We hadn't met at this point but jumped on zoom and had such an insightful conversation about modelling, womanhood, black hair, our views on working in the industry and being women of colour.


I truly enjoyed this conversation and although its taken such a long time to upload. I hope you enjoy.

  • 12. Liam (Part 1)

    57:38
    This episode was recorded back in February of 2024, days before Liam was about to embark on a new chapter in London Town. Filled with laughter, vulnerability and that ease you get when chatting to friends, our conversation feels very coming of age. When one chapter closes we may as well reflect on the things that brought us to this point. We explore moving to a new city, coming into ourselves, cliques and so much more. I've split our chat into two episodes because we spoke for two hours straight. Hope you enjoy. xx To find more Liam click here Liam's SubstackCynthia Taylu (Taylu_me)
  • 11. Vulnerability (Open to attack)

    20:13
    Hello my loves, We're here once again. I've been pondering on what vulnerability means to me and its role. In an ideal world I think we would all love to bring our full selves to every interaction but that's easier said than done. If Vulnerability means open to attack, than why do we expose ourselves? Although I don't have all the answers, lets explore this and see where we land. For more taylu things, visit the blog Taylu.meYou can find us on Instagram Taylu_blog or me Cynthia Taylu Taylu_me

    The second last interview of the Taylu Podcast is here and I'm joined with my friend Liv. We've been trying to tee this up for sometime and I'm so incredibly happy it finally happened. It was so inspiring to dive deeper into her upbringing and the moments that have shaped her into who she is. We cover a range of topics from heritage, beauty standards, the modelling industry and much more.Enjoy!Find more of Liv hereFind more taylu things here
  • 9. We're tired of getting embarrassed

    16:58
    I've been trying to record this episode for sometime and it's still a concept I'm getting comfortable with. This episode is by no means perfect and perhaps I might revisit it, but as I've always said, this podcast isn't suppose to be perfect. Instead I want to explore topics that interest me, even in the midst of figuring it out. Embarrassment, we've all experienced it, but what purpose does it serve in our lives and how do we come to terms with it? Somewhat of a bare bones episode, but I wanted to open the dialogue up and so lets explore.
  • 7. Maybe that European trip did teach me something

    38:06
    Hi Guys, It's been a minute since I did a solo episode. This weeks episode is very chatty. I reflect on my trip, from seeing friends who I hadn't seen in six years, solo travelling and ending my European adventures with fashion month in London, Milan and Paris. I cover it all and give you my honest opinions about my trip and what I learnt. You can find more taylu things on IG: Taylu_blog My personal IG: Taylu_me See you next time. Cyn xx
  • 6. Nate

    01:38:48
    There was such a lead up to recording this episode, myself and Nate kept trying to find the time to record it. But I'm so grateful it finally happened. We dissect the topic of boyhood and explore family dynamics, the intricate layers of finding yourself as a boy and much more. Ps. This episode was recorded back in 2021, so please excuse us for referencing some things that may be outdated, however the conversation is still great and I hope you enjoy listening.
  • 5. I cried on my birthday

    35:50
    So last year I cried on my birthday. I was completely overwhelmed and left feeling disappointed. I know that may sound extremely silly, but I feel like we've all been there in one way or another. This made me really reflect on the friendships in my life and a deeper reflection on how to deal with your expectations not being met whilst navigating friendship dynamics. No matter how old you are, we've all had to deal with coming to terms with ever changing dynamics with our friends. I chat through my experience and the things I've learnt. Hope you enjoy
