The Challenge USA’s Cassidy Clark Explains Why She Didn’t Vibe With Michaela Bradshaw

Transcript

00:00 What do you think it was about you and Mikaela, just two strong personalities?

00:03 Why did you clash?

00:04 Yeah, it's funny because I think she's very intelligent, right?

00:08 But she's intelligent in a more logical sense, and I think I have a little bit more emotional

00:12 intelligence and so I think we play our games very differently.

00:17 And I think that kind of made us clash a lot.

00:21 And I just don't do well with really manipulative people.

00:25 Just from my past, I get very triggered by it because I went through a relationship that

00:28 was very abusive in that way.

00:30 And not saying they're abusive people, I'm just saying I was going through the ringer

00:35 for years with somebody who was extremely manipulative and so I get very triggered by

00:38 that.

00:39 And it's a good...

00:41 It works for some people and they're able to play a really strategic, really calculated

00:46 game and good for them, but I don't vibe with it.

00:49 I don't like when people try to make me feel small with their intelligence or try to strong

00:55 arm me into doing something or just play mind games with me.

00:59 I don't vibe with that.

01:00 And I'm not afraid to stick up for myself.

01:02 Because of what I went through in my past, I stand up for myself against people like

01:05 that.

01:06 I don't want to say people like that.

01:08 I'm not implying that they're that type of person, but I'm just saying I've just learned

01:11 to stick up for myself when I feel like I'm being manipulated.

01:15 And so I think for those reasons, I just didn't really...

01:18 Yeah, we couldn't really click.
