Namita Nayyar:
How do you stay authentic on social media in a world of perfection?
Gia Macool:
By staying hands-on.
If someone working with me doesn’t maintain authenticity, they’re not part of my team. Real connection matters more than polish.
Namita Nayyar:
Reflecting on your journey since 1998, what are you most proud of?
Gia Macool:
That everything I dreamed of as a child—I’ve made happen.
Looking back, I’m proud that I kept every promise I made to myself.
Namita Nayyar:
What’s next for Gia Macool?
Gia Macool:
I’m rebranding, writing a new book, and expanding into podcasting and YouTube.
My next chapter is all about connecting with people in real life—helping them grow beyond the screen.

Namita Nayyar:
If you could give one piece of advice to your 1998 self, what would it be?
Gia Macool:
Be patient.
Never rush important decisions—impatience causes mistakes.
You don’t need others as much as you think. Everything you need is already within you—if you’re willing to work and sacrifice for it.
