While the Massachusetts native’s rise to fame began with her comedic content and unfiltered podcasting, the past few months have marked a personal transformation for the content creator. Her decision to leave an emotionally turbulent relationship with country singer Zach Bryan last October sparked headlines and resonated deeply with fans. By sharing her story of healing and self-reclamation, LaPaglia created a safe space for women navigating similar struggles and helped them recognize when it’s time to leave, showing that choosing themselves is always a good decision, no matter how daunting it may feel. And, the relationship between LaPaglia and her fans has been totally reciprocal.

“During the hardest time of my life, it’s probably been one of the most rewarding things that has ever happened to me, to be able to help people in a way that I feel is a lot more meaningful than what my old content was,” she told SI Swimsuit while on location. “I know posting silly stuff and having fun videos for people to watch is also helpful, and it helps people get out of the reality, but to actually change lives with coming forward and being able to give people a shoulder to lean on, or a person to cry to, it’s just out of this world.”

It feels especially fitting that this message of connection and resilience is shared today, the day the controversial TikTok ban is set to be enacted. After all, it was TikTok’s platform that first allowed LaPaglia to build a massive community rooted in authenticity, laughter and support.
