A modeling agency in Chicago, but the first one I went to, they were like, "I don't know, and what's that thing on your face? You might have to have that removed." And it was, you know, not the warmest, kindest, fuzziest introduction. But the moral of, you know, the fact that And I had wanted when I was a kid, 'cause most kids don't like anything that sets them apart, I wanted to get my mole removed. And I had asked my mother, I wanna get my mole removed. And she was like, okay, that's fine, but just remember, you don't know what that scar will look like. You know what your mole looks like. But really the interesting thing is that's the thing that made me most memorable. Before I was Cindy Crawford, people were like, who's that model with the beauty mark? And I think that's what I love, like reminding my daughter when we have things that we think make us different, it's that uniqueness that is oftentimes the very thing that sets you apart from everybody else. So it's learning to embrace that, which is easier said than done.
