    YSE Beauty Founder Molly Sims on Leaving a Job with Dignity
    Apr 24 2024

Her southern charm brought her to college at Vanderbilt University, where she made the boldest move of her career: quitting her pre-law studies to become a full time model. Molly was in her early 20s, alone, and homesick halfway across the world. But with placements on the cover of Sports Illustrated, French Vogue and more, it’s safe to say she made a name for herself. In this episode of 9 to 5ish, Molly shares: Why southern sorority culture wasn’t for her How her mother encouraged her to think beyond the US for her career + life experience Why she’d never want her daughter to become a model The secret to building resilience and the “thick skin” that helped her survive the modeling industry How confronting her mental health challenges helped her be OK with work curveballs Check out Molly's beauty brand, YSE Beauty.
