DeepSummary
The episode begins with Fernando Ramirez, the host, discussing his recent trip to New York Fashion Week as part of a brand trip with Cetaphil. He reflects on the full-circle moment of being sponsored by a brand he has used since childhood, after previously attending Fashion Week events on his own dime. He provides details about the various events he attended, including a welcome dinner, a model immersion experience, and the Alice and Olivia fashion show.
Fernando then segues into the main topic of the episode: what makes a person cool. He shares insights from a conversation with his friend Mayella about the qualities that make someone magnetic, likable, and interesting beyond their external appearance or interests. He emphasizes that true coolness comes from one's essence, confidence, self-assurance, and the ability to make others feel heard and understood.
Fernando provides examples of cool people in his life, highlighting their qualities such as vulnerability, authenticity, passion, inclusivity, and positivity. He also discusses random traits he finds cool, such as intentional fashion choices, excellent eye contact, and having niche interests or hobbies. Throughout the episode, he encourages listeners to focus on cultivating their own unique essence rather than copying others.
