Transcript

00:00 Kayla Nicole shares how she shakes off the haters.

00:03 Amid her ex Travis Kelsey's headline-making romance with Taylor Swift, the Tribe Therapy

00:09 founder takes to Instagram on November 29th for a Q&A with her followers.

00:15 In response to the question, "How do you tune out the noise?"

00:19 Kayla writes, "Noise never comes from someone who has more.

00:23 More love, more joy, more peace.

00:25 Misery loves company."

00:27 The 32-year-old adds, "Hate is a projection of an individual's self-worth.

00:32 I do not have to receive or entertain it.

00:35 Also asking myself, 'Will this matter to me in months from now?'

00:39 The answer is always no."

00:41 Kayla, who split from the Kansas City Chiefs player in 2022 after five years together,

00:47 then offers advice on dealing with change, specifically when it comes to friends.

00:52 She continues, "People are sometimes only meant to be part of your life for a season.

00:57 Give yourself time and permission to grieve, because losing a bond can be heartbreaking.

01:02 But also, acknowledge the bounty and beauty of friendships that you still have.

01:07 Shift your focus from what you've lost to what you have maintained.

01:10 And even more exciting, the new friendships you will forge in time."

01:14 While the influencer raised eyebrows when she unfollowed Travis' teammate Patrick Mahomes

01:20 and his wife Brittany on Instagram in October, she made it clear it wasn't malicious.

01:25 At the time, Kayla told People, "That's a lot of history and friendship there.

01:30 That doesn't change overnight.

01:31 But publicly, because things are happening so quickly and so publicly, I have to protect

01:36 myself.

01:37 That's really all that is.

01:39 The love is still there."

01:40 Travis' relationship with Taylor has blown up quickly and publicly over the last few

01:45 months, with the Grammy winner cheering on the tight end at several football games and

01:50 the duo stepping out for date nights in New York City and Argentina.

01:54 And for Kayla, being among the NFL players' list of ex-lovers has thrust her into the

01:59 spotlight.

02:01 In a video posted to Instagram in October, she said this, "They'll say you're too

02:06 much, too provocative, too boisterous, too outspoken, and in the same breath tell you

02:11 that you're not enough.

02:13 Preserve your heart.

02:15 Even when they try to quantify your character and test your boundaries, you do not have

02:20 to engage."

02:21 "I'm not going to be a bad person.

02:27 I'm not going to be a bad person.

02:28 I'm just going to be myself."

02:29 "I'm not going to be a bad person.

02:30 I'm just going to be myself."
