We had the good fortune of connecting with Miley Carterr and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Miley, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
I’m really BIG on taking risk, my whole life that’s all i’ve ever done was take huge risk. I believe that risk can make or break you that’s why you have to chose wisely what risk you’re taking. However, the risk i’ve taken has helped my career A LOT and influenced a lot of others to want to take risk of their own.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
Well first i’m a Black, Transgender Influencer… Being a black influencer alone has it’s challenges I’m not offered opportunities that my cisgendered counter parts are. I had to work three times as harder to get where I am. I’m not just the creator who post videos on youtube or cute pictures in clothes on instagram… I use my platform to inspire, motivate and spread awareness through my art. I’m also an Author of 2 Books “Becoming Miley and “I AM”, which also has a deluxe version called “The Diary Of Aurora”. I want the world to know that i’m so much more than being trans, i’m really a creator of many things and i’m serious about my work. My brand is transforming into a more mature and grown audience lol, a lot of my followers have been with me since i was 13 years old so we’ve grown together lol.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
Lol, contrary to popular belief i stay at home 24/7 unless i’m booked for a gig to leave or i have an event that i’m obligated to go to. Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
My shoutout goes personally to my support group who I call the #MileyMafia. They have been their for me at my lowest times of my life and will forever be apart of me and my brand. Without them I would not be as far as I am! <3 love them forever !!!
