Marisol Ochoa, Head Booker & Scout at Miah Management

Marisol Ochoa joins us to share her career behind the scenes of the modelling industry and her work as Head Booker and Scout at Miah Management in Barcelona. In this episode, she reflects on finding her way into model management, learning the business from the ground up, and the people who helped shape the way she works today. She talks about what it really takes to recognise potential, explaining the difference between someone beautiful and someone who can build a career as a model. Marisol also shares the responsibility that comes with representing people in such a competitive industry, particularly when models are young and facing regular rejection. The conversation explores Marisol’s role in helping to create more opportunities for curve models in Spain and how the market has gradually become more open to different sizes, backgrounds and forms of beauty. She discusses the need to move away from unnecessary labels, the importance of clients reflecting real people and why there is still more progress to be made. Marisol also offers an honest look at the relationship between models and their agents, from building trust and confidence to supporting wellbeing and making careful decisions about the direction of a career. www.businessofmodelling.co.uk www.miahmanagement.com Hosted on Acast.
