Layna believes that the modelling industry is becoming more challenging with every passing day. People assume that it is an easy job. However, it is a rather common misconception. Getting exposed to the world of beauty and glamour at a rather young age, Layna had to face a lot of challenges which proved to be beneficial in order to scale up in the industry. She believes that every aspiring model needs to have five qualities in order to be successful- uniqueness, self-confidence, stepping out of their comfort zone, keeping up with technological and digital advancement and lastly fitness. The last attribute is not only beneficial in the professional sector but also personally. Layna herself is a fitness freak who loves practising yoga, mindfulness and meditation. As someone who has been in the modelling industry for a long, Layna has framed a long list of models who she considers her idol. This includes April Ashley, Emme, Imaan Hammam, Christy Turlington, and Beverly Johnson. Most people reduce models to their external features. However, Layna believes that they are so much more than their pretty face. For instance, Ashley was a huge inspiration to transgender models, Emme was a pioneer for body positivity and paved the way for many plus-sized models, Imaan was a role model for black girls everywhere, Christy Turlington was actively invested in the sector of safe childbirth for women and lastly, Beverly Johnson was one of the first influential black American models who went on to become a renowned actress, singer and author.
Not many people know this but Layna is an avid philanthropist who has actively taken part in many activities to help and inspire people. For instance, she volunteered for Big Brothers Big Sisters of America and in the event Alzheimer’s Walk that aims to raise awareness. Thus, Layna Boo is a very influential and inspiring personality who hs come a long way since the beginning.
