EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW
FMNYC - What is your greatest weakness, as a model? What are you doing to improve on it?
KATE CAST - Modelling is more the lifestyle than just a job. You have to be ready to take a risk, to travel the world and being on your on 100% most of the time. That takes a lot of courage. There’s no guaranty you’ll make it. But as I like to say - when nothing is sure, everything is possible.
FMNYC - Why did you choose to be a Model, Motivator Speaker and Health Coach?
KATE CAST - I don’t feel like it was me who choose, but it did chosen me , With modelling - I got scouted (several times until I did say ‘yes’).My Degree in Nutrition was just to summaries what I have learnt and studied over the years when experimenting with veganism and being always asked “How do you keep yourself so fit?” And motivational / spiritual life coach - as they like to called me - I have been always a very positive person, supporting and motivating others to believe in their dreams as / cause I wasn’t born famous and rich but always have had such a trust in life and the whole Universe as my biggest supporter, when making the impossible my reality.
FMNYC - Tell us about your first experience when you were modeling as a professional.
KATE CAST - I still don’t understand how I did book my very first big show. I have never been walking on the high heels and the ones we got at the casting to show our walk were super high and the size too small for me. I got at the casting by the time it was almost over cause I couldn’t find the location. I remember I was wearing ‘a very cool ’ outfit from the second hand and looked super scared.
FMNYC - Tell us a little about your healthy diet ?
KATE CAST - Healthy diet? I wish I would have one. Recently I have not been eating healthy at all cause my traveling so as for now it’s pizza, club sandwich, a lots of chocolate, ice cream and chips. When I am more stable, I cook a lot at home, eat a lot of eggs and avocado and always implementing some veggies into my diet. I always make sure I drink enough. You can find some of my creator on my IG @healthysexydiet.
FMNYC - Who are your biggest influences?
KATE CAST - Everyone can be your inspiration and so for your teacher. I Leo the teachings of Eckhart Tolle, Wayne Dyer, Sadhguru and Teal Swan to name a few.
FMNYC - How do you balance your time as a health coach and Modeling?
KATE CAST - Both of the jobs are pretty flexible. I was always working and studying so I am used to have two jobs.
FMNYC - What are your best projects to date?
KATE CAST - I am so grateful for what I have accomplished, I have shot for all the big covers like Numero Russia, Vogue, Elle, Glamour, InStyle, L’Officiel, Harper’s Bazaar. But what makes me happy the most is when I work with the good team, we have fun and everyone is happy cause we create insane results.
FMNYC - What goals would you like to achieve in 2022?
KATE CAST - I hope I can help more and more people to find their happiest version of themselves every single day. Not only in 2022 but till my last breath.
FMNYC - What is your dream project and why?
KATE CAST - My dream project is “spiritual bitch” as my IG profile @spiritualbitch_katecast and my website katecast.net where I share tips and trick on ‘practical spirituality’. I believe that every each of us has a special unique gift and the world needs all of them. The ‘trick’ is to ‘find it” cause it’s only you who has it so you don’t even realize it thinking about it as ‘something automatic’ and that everyone else has the same gift. But/and you ‘own it’ to yourself to follow whatever sets up your heart one fire. That’s what gives your life the real meaning, purpose, that’s what makes you really happy in life.
FMNYC - Describe your perfect day off when you are not working at all.
KATE CAST - I don’t need much to be happy. Sleep - a lot, eat - a lot, connect with some great souls and create some magic.
FMNYC - What do you do to keep yourself in shape?
KATE CAST - I love Pilates and walking. Barefoot on the beach, in the nature is the best! and I consider shopping as my cardio.
FMNYC - Can you tell us a bit about your next project?
KATE CAST - I’m going to MindValley University in July and I can’t wait to connect with all those beautiful people who wanna bring positive change to the world.
FMNYC - What’s your life motto / message for our audience.
KATE CAST - “Imagine the Happiest, Highest version of Yourself and start to show up like her. Show up every moment like you’re fully meant to be there.”
