ll that matter “I want to live with minimal regrets. The core of what I do is constantly seeking joy. I don’t want to ever have a day where nothing really cool happened.” <strong>SB</strong> / #55 / 60
s “After being voted off and going to purgatory and then making it back into the game, it was like walking into a group of people that outwardly hated you. I got bullied for eating too much. I had the same serving size as the guys, but they always said I was a small girl, so I have to eat less. I would also wake up sometimes and hear them whispering about me. It got to the point where the producers had to step in and talk to them about it. “The positives were amazing though. The whole experience is like being in another world because you don’t have phones, you only have nature. Every night you are falling asleep under the stars and it’s beautiful. I did a lot of meditating and yoga, and it still taught me how important it is to have resilience, because if I didn’t I would have walked out of there a lot earlier.” As someone who holds themselves so naturally and with confidence, it was no surprise that Shay was able to power through the relentless social nonsense and come out of the show with a bright smile on her face – just like she always does. Shay has a down-to-earth approach to life and everything in it, so naturally we had to ask her where she draws her courage from. Shay said she doesn’t think she felt truly confident until she was in her mid-twenties, when she learnt to embrace the wild and lovable sides of herself. “That was when I realised that over the years of weird coincidences and things going wrong and things going right – you can’t control anything. So if you just let go, be yourself and enjoy being yourself, then you’re never going to look back and regret that you were trying to be someone else, or that you were timid or held back. “If I’m feeling sad one day, I’ll cry in public. If I’m feeling ecstatic, I’ll wave and smile at people in public. Just embrace yourself. Because my biggest fear is being like 80 and looking back at photos of me in my twenties and wishing I lived life more. 61 / #55 / <strong>SB</strong>
